Rabbi Levin worked very well with our adult learners. He is a skilled and caring speaker and he really takes an interest in the students. Our students appreciated his perspective and I would love to invite him to teach in our congregation in the future.

Rabbi Levin (worked) with staff and lay leaders to create a program tailored to fit the needs of our adult education community. Rabbi Levin brings years of expertise in end of life issues and is incredibly thoughtful in how he prepares for these programs. Adult learners were engaged and enlightened (by) activities to get to core values they want to pass along to the next generation.

The opportunity to work with Rabbi David Levin and to bring real expertise to bear on this core component of the life of our congregation is a tremendous gift.

Rabbi David Levin's program was quite educational and empowering. A few people came up to me afterward and commented that they would like their daughters or sons to have the opportunity to see a presentation of this type.
