Empowering MTA boys

MTA freshmen and sophomores were empowered to take ownership of their educational growth during the yeshiva’s first ever student led conferences.

“The goal of SLCs is to give our talmidim an added level of ownership in their education and growth,” explained Rabbi Dov Emerson, director of teaching and learning.

“Taking time beforehand to work with our talmidim and allow them to practice setting goals and role playing was another crucial step towards ensuring that these conversations were impactful. The SLCs allow each talmid to focus on areas of growth specific to their classes [and] are a natural extension of our mission to create the next generation of Jewish leaders.”
