More Testimonials:

“I would like to take this brief opportunity to heartily recommend Rabbi Abenson’s novel approach to teaching Mikre and Torah Ba’al Peh to anyone who is sincerely interested in learning how to learn and as a byproduct, how to transmit this information to a Talmid. He has certainly helped me and may he continue to help others achieve their personal objectives.” Dr. R. Lexier M.D.  C.S.P.Q.   F.R.C.S.  416-787-9356

“Thank you for bringing your Kriah Center to Detroit.  I am a baal teshuvah with no yeshivah background.  After starting on my third Daf Yomi cycle I was feeling that I should be much farther along in my learning than I was.  Your course quickly turned that around.  From the first lesson I began to feel a new enjoyment and feeling of accomplishment and purpose in my learning.  You have especially helped me to first concentrate on what the Gemara  wants to teach.” Mr. Joel K. Letvin 248-682-0265

“I have much Hakoros Hatov for Rabbi Dovid Abenson. There is tremendous benefit I have learning with him through the priceless mitzva of meilim b’torah, learning gemara through my own efforts, making mistakes and sweating over it.  It is impossible just using the Artscroll and in the next world, who knows, after reading through Artscroll after 30 years, and being a passive learner with Daf HaYomi, who knows how much that’s worth compared to one hour of breaking one’s teeth struggling over the gemara itself. I truly recommend this great upgrading gemara program!“ Dr. Leon Herman. B Sc (Hon) M.D.

“Within 6 weeks of learning with Rabbi Abenson, I feel my whole learning has jumped a massive level.  I am now able to read and remember more translations.  My davening has also picked up – people used to be way ahead of me but I have accuracy and speed on my side to help me along.”  Daniel Lyons, London, U.K. cell: 0797 6699220

“Its magic…”   Mrs. Sperka 248-967-6033

“I would like to highly commend and recommend Rabbi Dovid Abenson for his Shaar HaTalmud Program.  We have worked together for over 5 years to help children who are struggling to read.  His screening methods pinpoint learning delays that are at least partially due to developmental vision problems.  These functional vision conditions are often overlooked in general eye examinations.  Rabbi Abenson has referred these students to me for behavioral vision care—vision therapy and/or glasses.  After we have both intervened, these students greatly improve in their reading and learning abilities. ”  Dr.Margaret F. Ronis, OD BSc, Optometrist, 3635 Boul. des Sources, Dollard des Ormeaux, Quebec H9B 2K4  CANADA

“I wanted to express our gratitude for your assessment which was startlingly accurate!!; and for the extensive and informative information you e-mailed to us. It was most enlightening!  B’li ayin hara, since your initial consultation, things have much improved… You don’t need me to tell you this, but it seems to me that Ha-shem has given you a marvelous gift both in your capacity to understand, on a very deep level – and perhaps even more importantly to relate to – children (and adults!) on their level: to put into practice the Torah directive to “Teach a child according to HIS way.” It’s my opinion that this is at least as helpful and therapeutic as the learning tools you share and empower them with. May Ha-shem grant you hatzlacha raba as you continue to use your gifts to serve the Klal. And, may He grant you hatzlacha in reaching more children…Thank you again, and tizku l’mitzvot….”   A.Y. Mifsud 248-423-8186

“I have personally seen many boys go from non-readers and non-learners to fluent readers and enthusiastic learners with the help of Rabbi Abenson.  His straight forward approach to learning enables the children to begin experiencing success within one or two sessions.  I have applied many of Rabbi Abenson’s techniques to English reading with considerable success.  Rabbi Abenson’s presents stimulating  workshops which I highly recommend to educators as well as parents.  What he has to say has tremendous impact on how Kodesh is taught.”  Elaine Rubinoff  M.A., M.S. (Spec. Ed.)  General Studies Principal,  Toronto Talmud Torah; ; Instructor Talpiot College.

“We would like to take this opportunity to show our thanks and our warmest appreciation for your time and help. We thank Hashem for making you our shaliach. The timing of your availability was so perfect that we all see the Yad Hashem in this matter. We hope and pray that with the help of Hashem you continue to be a success with our son, as well as with others that need help.” Mrs. Etty    …      Tel: 570-343-2627

Rabbi Shmuel Y. Klein, Director of Publications and Communications, Torah Umesorah, Brooklyn, NY: 

“This is to affirm that I have known Rabbi David Abenson for a number of years and have personally witnessed the effectiveness of his reading program on young students in Toronto (which is where I resided until recently).  Indeed, when lecturing for Montreal’s Jewish Board of Education in November, I publicly made reference to this fact. Rabbi Abenson has been using his original and highly successful approach for years in a number of communities in Canada and the U.S. The highly acclaimed program is also cost-efficient, due to the quick pace with which it bears fruit.  I have no hesitation recommending that Rabbi Abenson become a feature in any Jewish school’s resource room.”
