Why Yoni Can't Read: An Interview with Simi Peters

from RZ חדשי · host Johnny Solomon, Mali Brofsky and Reuven Spolter

According to a recently published article by noted educator and author Simi Peters on 18forty, notwithstanding the significant costs and alleged high standards of Jewish schools, there has been a sharp decline in recent years in the Torah skills of Jewish men and women with many being unable to access Torah in its original Hebrew. In this episode we interview Simi and ask her to tell us more about her perspective, while each of us – given our experience and involvement in Jewish education – offer our thoughts.
