Alumnae Testimonials
What will you gain from learning in MMY? Listen to what some of our alumnae have to say!
About the Learning...
“At Stern College, I always took the advanced courses in Tanach and Halacha. The teacher would usually announce that the course required preparation that should take about 2 hours a week. But I was consistently able to finish all of it in less than 30 minutes! I would frequently be the one to help other students who hadn’t developed these skills. MMY taught me consistency, thoroughness and a methodology of learning that I definitely couldn’t have gained anywhere else.” Ariella (Bram) Rosenbaum Science Teacher MMY 5765, East Brunswick New Jersey
"MMY is an institution where questions are encouraged, answers are varied, and thinking is a necessity. It is impossible to walk out of the doors of MMY without having been exposed to an array of philosophies, each unique and special in its own right - impossible to leave without a better of idea of who you are, what you think, who you want to become.” Jina Davidovich Student MMY 5769, Los Angeles
About the Atmosphere....
“The friends you make in MMY become your friends for life. Although many of us chose different paths for colleges and professions, we know that we always have that special bond created at MMY that can never be broken.” Francie (Grossman) Goldberg Marketing Professional MMY 5765, Merrick New York
“Whether we were at a Shabbaton in Mitzpe Ramon, Tzfat or in MMY the Ruach was amazing. Each Shabbat we were all together it seemed as if we were getting closer to Israel, to Hashem and of course to each other.” Michelle Hart Student MMY 5769, London
On Staying in Touch...
“The annual Alumnae Yom Iyun is one of the highlights of my year. Personally, it’s so inspiring to see the large numbers of talmidot from different years of MMY get together for a morning of learning” Miriam (Shaffren) Hirschman Market Researcher MMY 5759, Yonkers New York
“My desire to live and build a home in Eretz Yisrael very much began during my shana alef year in MMY; the sources, the teachers, the tiyulim all over the country…and nine years later, Baruch Hashem, the dream has finally become a reality.” Elana (Bergman) Dvinsky Social Worker MMY 5761, New Rochelle New York
