What topics do you teach?
Each class is designed to help you reach your educational goals for your children. Topics include Hebrew language at all levels, Jewish history, Tefillah (prayer), Parsha (weekly Torah portion), Holidays, Bar/Bat Mitzvah preparation, Jewish stories and songs, Mitzvot, and Community Values, among others, and we’re always open to new ideas, too!
If classes are small, how will my child make other Jewish friends?"
We offer exciting programming throughout the year that brings children from all of our classes together. From holiday events like Shofar Factory, Matzah Bakery, and Purim Carnival, Shabbat Dinners / Lunches, and our Library Story Hours, HS2U provides many opportunities for our families to become a community.
How often do classes meet?
Our classes meet for a minimum one hour weekly. If you feel your child needs more time, we can work together to make a more personalized schedule. Note: There is a minimum commitment of 6 classes, though class calendars are structured to reflect the schedule of the teacher and student which may mean that the classes are non-consecutive or skip a week.
Why Hebrew School to You vs. Traditional Hebrew School?
Sounds great! But we’re [not that religious/our kids already go to Jewish day school/we’re new to this whole Hebrew School thing] will it still work for us?
Regardless of your Jewish background, or level of Jewish education, Hebrew School to You is a great choice! Because we tailor-design each class based on its participants, Hebrew School To You can work for anyone. We accept students whose families are otherwise completely uninvolved, students who attend full time Jewish day school and weekly services, and everyone in between.
I know classes are offered at the “location of my choice”, but what does that actually mean?"
We’re open to anywhere in the Montecito and Carpinteria area! Some suggestions include: • Your home • A relatives home • A local coffee shop • A Public Library • A quiet park Please note, during the session, another adult must be on premises.
How do the group classes work? What if I don’t know another family to join with my child?
Typically, our group class rate requires a minimum of 3 children. It’s great when children learn with peers as they can develop great friendships and learn from questions and comments posed by their peers. So whenever possible, we will do our best to help you pair your child up with at least one other child at their grade level. We also may have a pre-existing class that your child can join. In some cases, private tutoring will better help your child achieve their goals, so we offer that, too!
What are the costs of the program?"
We do our best to make our program accessible to all Jewish families. That’s why no child is ever turned away from our programs for lack of funds. Our prices are beyond competitive and are all-inclusive. There is a minimum commitment of 6 classes. There are no membership fees, book fees, registration fees. Group Lessons (3+ students) $45 per student per hour Semi-Private Lessons (2 students) $60 per student per hour Private Tutoring & Bar Mitzvah Training $90 per student per hour
