This video will clearly demonstrate how students will gain a new look at the Gemara and manage the difficulties encountered in the Gemara text
Students often struggle when learning Gemara. The text is very confusing.
There is an unending torrent of strange words flowing into one another, without vowels, commas, periods, or paragraphs for help.
This hardship is compounded by the Hebrew/Aramaic language barrier. They feel confused and lost. What advice is there for one to overcome these difficulties?
The answer lies within one’s approach to his Gemara study.
Open the video and watch.
Rabbi Yechezkel Norman, a dedicated mechanech for over 35 years, has
painstakingly compiled Gemara Steps and Structure, which is full of
techniques and concepts that have been tried and tested throughout
his long teaching career of successfully developing talmidei chachamim,
even those with limited Gemara experience and appreciation.
"This program is so essential. We have to find ways to familiarize our young talmidim with gemara."
"The "Gemara Beyadcha" program of Rabbi Yechezkel Norman will be very useful for beginners in Gemara learning."
"I highly reccommend this program. It is so necessary. I'm for it all the way."
"I highly endorse this program and urge individuals and schools to take advantage of it."
"Rebbeim need to know that this is on us, it's our responsibility for the next generation."
"This program will give students clarity and let them become independent in their learning"
"Anyone who goes through the program is much farther ahead than anyone who hasn't."
