Student Programs

She'arim's program for Sephardic women and our leadership training program are two examples of the innovative programming that She'arim provides in order to meet our students' needs.

Since many of our students are young married women (others marry during the time that they are learning or shortly afterwards), we provide several programs that are focused on their questions and needs.

Chesed opportuniities in Israel abound, and She'arim guides students to find the right one for them!

Ulpan - She'arim provides an evening ulpan on two levels for any student interested in learning spoken Hebrew.

Tiyulim are an integral part of the learning experience at She'arim. Learn Torah and tour the land
