“My son is working with this AMAZING tutor to prepare for his bar mitzvah. In case anyone out there needs a bar/bat mitzvah tutor, her name is Dafna Stein. She is smart, funny, creative and engaging! He is getting so much out of this experience with Dafna that I can't begin to explain. Best of all, he actually looks forward to his sessions with her! This from a kid that I literally had to drag to hebrew school." E. Krakow

"Our ceremony included all kinds of special Jewish rituals developed with my daughter's input. Selected family and friends were invited to bless her and present her with a flower. She ended up with a huge bouquet. This was in addition to my daughter leading parts of the service and chanting beautifully from the Torah with confidence. Dafna explained every aspect of the ceremony so everyone present, Jew and non Jew understood what was going on. Dafna has a way about her that is very inclusive and generous."

"Thank you for making the service so intimate, personal and significant. My guests all appreciated the care that you take in explaining everything. You made the Torah story so easy to understand and always brought it back to Jeremy. "

"After Aidan's first meeting with you on the way back home he made it clear it was a go. He had a connection with you and the journey began...I will never forget the times that we would travel to see you for his lessons, the conversations that would take place in the car...you made it very easy for our non-Jewish guests to understand...and your humor was spot on."

"Rites of Passage are very important aren't they? If you would like your child to experience their Bar or Bat Mitzvah I highly recommend Dafna. She's been a good friend for 20 years and boy does she know how to make the tutoring and ceremony personal and meaningful for every child."
