Rabbi Epstein can make it happen.
As many of you know, Rabbi Joel Epstein has been studying one on one with individuals and in small groups on a wide range of subjects for many years. He has continued doing this during the pandemic, teaching Bar/Bat Mitzvah students, men, women, teens and kids on all levels-- in Columbus (and around the country & world!) -- on the phone & through Skype. As our community wraps up a run of simchas, Rabbi Epstein has availability to study with new students of all ages. Possible learning opportunities include (but are not limited to) *Leading Weekday or Shabbat Services *Learning Trope and/or Reading a Haphtorah/Torah portion (whether new or reviewing your Bar Mitzvah portion!) or Megillah *Studying texts (liturgy, Chumash, Mishnah & Gemara)
Feel free to reach out to him in person, by phone, or e-mail
