So, I'm kinda running out of things to write because I'm basically in class for most of the time now and I don't know how interesting that is for you because it isn't really anything new about my Israeli experience. All requests and questions about things that you want to know are welcome. I did have one request to talk more about my teachers, so I guess for now I'll do that. This is my weekly schedule in case it got a little messed up in my previous blog posts.
Sunday
Gemara with Rav Avigdor- He's a little boring and goes through the material really fast but the topics that we learn are interesting.
Machshava with Miriam Wolf- She's pretty funny but can also get a little boring, but the topic and also her style of teaching are interesting.
Contemporary Halacha with Rav Bailey- He's the awesome one.
Torah and Psychology with Rav Krengel- He teaches some pretty advanced stuff and is kinda boring.
Hilchot Shabbat with Rav Berg- He reminds me a little bit of Rabbi Gez from Flatbush.
Topics in the Mishneh Torah with Rav Horn- He reminds me a little bit of Rabbi Gober from Flatbush because he's very philosophical but on the other hand his class is also very chilled out.
Monday
Bekiut Torah with Rav Milstone- He is so funny!
Chumash Biyun with Rav Yonatan- He's pretty chilled out and can be pretty funny sometimes and his class is hard and challenging but really interesting.
Taamei HaMikra with Tanya- This is a really fun class and she always makes sure we understand everything.
Tuesday
Gemara Bekiut (see above)
Drama and Tanach with Devorah Starr- She is so cool and so much fun and is a great teacher.
Wednesday
Gemara Bekiut (see above)
Machshava (see above)
Yearly Calendar with Rav Krengel- Surprisingly, he's much more fun in this class than in the other class I have with him.
Derech Hashem with Rav Ron- He's kinda boring because he just lectures alot, but the topics he teaches are very interesting.
Tehillim of the Siddur with Rav Bailey- I have the awesome one twice!
Thursday
Bekiut Torah (see above)
Chumash Biyun (see above)
Medical Ethics with Rav Weitzman- Today is wednesday and so it's been a week since I had him so I don't remember who he is... sorry
Hilchot Kashrut with Rav Berg- He's the one who reminds me of Rabbi Gez.
Hilchot Brachot with Judith Fogel- She is so nice and her class is pretty chilled out.
Okay, so that's my schedule for the week. I know that some of the days seem much shorter/ longer than others but we do other stuff that isn't classes. I also know that these aren't great descriptions, but they're pretty good for only having each teacher a couple of times. I'm sure I'll get to know them much better throughout the year. That's all for now since I'm exhausted. (I always feel tired at night for some reason) Remember, any suggestions are welcome. Shalom V'lehitraot!
You could talk about life in between and after classes...what do you do when classes are over for the day? Hang out with friends? Do you ever go out or mostly stay in?
