which mesivtas are good not too yeshivish but shtark litvish heimish
Chaim Berlin HS, Torah Temimah
Novominsk
What about punctuation?
Mesivta Torah Vodaas, aka MTV.
Love the initials!
wat about torah vodaas
Ask your brother.
Are looking for a mesivta that meets all three requirements, is 2 out of 3 or even 1 out of three good enough? Despite the lack of punctuation, I understand you are looking for a mesivta that is
1)good
2)not too yeshivish
3)shtark litvish heimish
Can you tell us what is good in your eyes? A good group of rabbeim? A good english department? A good debate club? A good menahel?
Please define Yeshivish so we can tell you if it is too Yeshivish for you, or perhaps not yeshivish enough.
Please define litvish heimish? Once defined, we can determine if a place is shtark litvish heimish or just plain shvach litvish heimishe or perhaps just shtark.
” what’..so funny about the initials MTV?? “
I got the joke! (but I’m over 30, so that helps.)
HIE = MTV was the YouTube of the 80s.
Torah Vodaath is a great Yeshiva. Period. I have chidren in the elementary department and my wife and I are extremely happy. Hopefully, this will carry into the High School as well. The english dept has a reputation of excellence and i heard that they are working to make the limudei kodesh better.
Chofetz Chaim. A wonderful place with wonderful Rebbeim that will only elevate the level of yiddishkeit in your son.
HIE,
Since one poster using this account has already mentioned that he attends Torah Vodaas, I assume that was the “son” and you’re the “little bro”. So ask you’re “big bro”. If you’re the “big bro”, why are you even asking?
There are very few high schools in Brooklyn that have a good English department. However, Yeshiva of Flatbush has a terrific English program along with good Hebrew studies.
I don’t think the OP was considering a co-ed school.
DaasYochid: There is no reason to speak in such a condescending manner when referring to co-ed schools. It is unfair to both the parents and kids who attend the school. You must respect each and every jew regardless of how religious they are. I have 3 sons that attend the school and all I can say is that it is a terrific all-around school. Please respect others!
Yes, sir.
Having fun, troll?
Adam:
I dont think DaasYochid was being condescending. he was just pointing out that the op had asked for a “heimish” school.
I think we would all agree that while Yeshiva of Flatbush may be a great school for the people it caters to, “heimish” it definitely isn’t.
IsometimesAgree,
Thanks for having my back. You are, of course, correct.
Can anyone tell me about The Cheder?
Why dont you answer my questions? Exactly what is TOO yeshivish? What makes something SHTARK litvish heimish as opopsed to shtark litvish or shatark heimish? Is it the amount of garlic in the cholent? Quite frankly, I have no idea what you mean, and I doubt you know what you mean either.
i know its not in brklyn but what type of yeshiva is phillie?
Answer the question. If you can’t, just say, I don’t know.
The way I interpret your requirement, Yagdil Torah is the yeshiva you should look into, followed closely by Chasan Sofer.
But, they are NOT so yeshivish.
