About Me

 

שלום, שמי הניה!

Hello, my name is Henia!

I have been a Jewish educator for nearly 40 years. I am originally from Brooklyn, New York and have been teaching since I was 16 years old. My career has included everything from teaching in Jewish day schools to teaching English to Hebrew-speaking Israeli immigrants. My passion is teaching, especially Torah and mitzvot. 

I retired from school teaching several years ago and now exclusively provide private tutoring for children and adults, workshops, and consulting services. I have led virtual workshops and private lessons to international students, including wrapping workshops. I am based in Baltimore, Maryland.

I love learning Torah and living b'derech Hashem (in the path of G-d).

I can't wait to learn with you!
