CERTIFICATE IN 
LIBERATORY TORAH EDUCATION

Transform your approach to learning, teaching, and meaning making, so you can take your Torah and transform the world and people around you. Our curriculum & program is deeply rooted in Liberation pedagogy, graduate level practical tools, and in cultivating/sharing text study as a spiritual practice.​​​​

    • These meetings will dive into both practical and theoretical aspects of liberatory pedagogy, provide colleague feedback opportunities, and connect colleagues of Liberatory Torah around the world.

    • These meetings will be 2.5 hours with a break. They will happen the 1st or 2nd Sunday of every month. The exact time will depend on the best availability of the cohort assembled.

    • You will own the rights to these projects completely! They're yours and we're proud just to have been a part of it.

    • We reserve the right to reuse recordings and materials from public Torah Studio programming that we might work on with you - and you will be reminded of this in any such situation.

    • Additional Service & Cost: If you are working toward a larger project and want one on one mentorship and consultation from Liana as you work on it, we are offering this option at an additional $500 USD (total of $2300 USD).
