Programs

How to Encounter Jewish Texts Using the Miriam Anzovin Method

In this workshop, Miriam walks participants through her unique 4-step method of encountering Jewish texts in a dynamic, engaging, and personal way. This is the method she uses in her own learning and in creating her TikTok videos. After sharing how students can utilize these steps in their own learning, Miriam and the participants will learn and react to a text together. (60-75 minutes.)

Jewish Texts as Jewish Identity

Miriam will speak openly about how her life experiences as a formerly Orthodox woman, and now secular Jew, led her to deep emotional engagement with Jewish text study. She will discuss her spiritual journey, Daf Yomi, the genesis of her #DafReactions TikTok videos, and being a "Talmud Influencer" in the public eye. Includes questions/ discussion. (Weekday version includes three short videos.)
