Team Madrichim

Madrichim (Teacher's Assistants)

One of the best aspects of our Kulanu Learning and Hebrew program is our madrichim, our teacher's assistants.  These teens spend their Sunday mornings or  Tuesday afternoons, in our classrooms, assisting our teachers in executing lesson plans, helping with classroom management, and most importantly, serving as a role model to our younger students. 

“Madrich” (m) or “Madricha” (f) means “guide”.  Our Madrichim program offers 7th-12th grade teens the opportunity to develop communication and leadership skills, increase self-confidence, express Jewish values, and learn practical teaching skills by assisting teachers in the classroom. 

Madrichim take a course with Rabbi Schwartz as a prerequisite of the program, where they learn about teaching strategies, lesson planning, and different learning styles.  Those who elect to participate in the JET Leadership track also participate in the madrichim program.   Learn more about this program by contacting Rabbi Schwartz.
