Ms. Markman has
been my daughter’s Hebrew school teacher for the past year. As a sole teacher,
Ms. Markman was responsible for 8-10 children in the classroom ages 5-8. She
put a lot of effort into creating an innovative curriculum to engage these
young kids in Judaism.
Ms. Markman is a
well educated and talented individual and a teacher. She has a passion for her
profession and a lot of patience and love for children. This was evident by the
reaction of the children when they walked into the classroom – they were eager
to share with her their ‘news.’ Each week, my daughter recalled different
songs, stories, holidays, creative projects, and various activities that she
learned in Hebrew school. She brought home many pieces of work that Ms. Markman
helped them create. She truly believed in each child and
her endless praise for the smallest achievements encouraged the children in
their learning.
Ms. Markman was very
attentive to me as a parent. She was happy to recount the smallest details when
asked at the end of the class. I was worry free when I’d drop off my daughter
knowing that Ms. Markman was there. It was a great pleasure to have such a
wonderful teacher and I can only hope for a future teacher like Ms. Markman for
my children.
