Miss Rachel Ginsberg

Junior High English Teacher
In Gesher Yehuda we do not have a typical staff-to-student relationship. Anyone who walks through our doors becomes family.

I have been in Gesher Yehuda for 20 years. In my time here, I’ve taught a variety of subjects, including Hebrew, Chumash, Keriah, and all the English subjects. My goal is to help my students realize their maximum potential.

Some students find it difficult and tedious to sit still, focus, and learn for hours. Learning should be engaging and interactive. My goal is to tap into each student’s innate curiosity to help them hone their critical thinking skills.

Studies show that using all five senses: taste, touch, sight, sound, and smell, as much as possible helps students learn and retain information. For this reason, I put effort into making hands-on lessons for each subject.

It is important  for children to feel they are in a safe environment where they can thrive. That environment is Gesher Yehuda.
