General information
What is the course about?
We cover a lot of topics, connecting the dots between: General and Jewish history, archaeology, museums, architecture, art and culture, pop culture, Tanakh and Jewish studies, inventions, discoveries, important personalities, and more.
We meet every weekly at different times, to accommodate East and West Coast participants in the US, as well as people in Israel and elsewhere. Classes also take place in Hebrew. To keep things simple, the booking calendar below tells you exactly when classes take place, and on what days, and in what language. These are subject to change based on our schedule constraints, so best to keep in touch or follow in one of the ways listed below.
We recommend you become a site member, it's free. This makes registration to events easier, as your information does not need to be filled in every time you sign up. And if you would like discounts, access to the recordings of the classes you've watched, and to view upcoming homeschool museum tours, we recommend purchasing a pricing plan. There are several options, and the larger the plan the greater the discount and the more options you'll have. This feature is new and is being updated and improved.
Do we need prior knowledge?
No. But it helps. I always introduce every topic with a brief overview, to being everyone up to speed. I assume my audience is diverse, and I do my best to present the material in a respectful and thoughtful way. Jewish and Biblical topics are taught with a respectful attitude towards the entire spectrum of secular-traditional-religious attendees.
Can we watch a free sample? Or Previous recordings?
Yes, absolutely! Here is the free intro class from this year, and there are more in the video library below.

Recommended for kids and teens. Our goal is to have separate classes for ages 6-9, and then 10+ and teens. This is already happening in the Hebrew speaking course, which has gained more traction over three years. The English speaking course is slowly growing, and with larger numbers this will happen soon. So join us!

What are the upcoming classes about?
Oour booking calendar below lists the courses we have for different age groups and in both Hebrew and English. The booking calendar cannot tell you what is the topic on a given date, which is why there is a list of topics with dates and descriptions below. This list will direct you further down to the booking calendar, where you sign up.
To sign up for the event you must go to the booking calendar. With a pricing plan, you can join any class within your plan and the zoom link will be sent to you. If you want to join a single class without a membership, that is also possible.
We recommend a pricing plan because it helps you keep track, save money, has access to the recordings of the classes you joined, and more perks. You can become a site member for free. To get discounts on the classes and other perks, check out our pricing plans.

Memberships currently include 4, 10 or a semester of live sessions within 3-5 months. As long as your subscription is up-to-date, you can access recordings up to three months back. There is currently no option to buy a subscription exclusively for recordings, but you may select classes you wish to see from the list below, and contact me. There is a smilar discount for 10, 20 or more recordings, and the rental can last up to 3 months.
Notice:
When you redeem a class it counts as 1 participation, since it is on zoom. Zoom has limited participation slots, and you don't want to fill the up necessarily, nor use up your subscription credit needlessly. If a mistake is made, it can be adjusted manually by contacting me.
