SHOALIM U’MESHIVIM
AND SGANEI MASHGICHIM

RIETS students studying and in discussion

Superbly trained and passionately committed, shoalim u’meshivim and sganei mashgichim guide, support, and inspire our students every step of the way.

MASHGICHIM

Our mashgichim wear many hats based on their primary goal of developing meaningful relationships with students. They help students adjust to our challenging curriculum, support them in achieving balance in their busy schedules, and engage them in dialogue about personal growth.

The mashgichim also arrange chavrusos, give chaburas on a range of topics depending on students’ interests, and initiate programs that enhance students’ religious experience.

SHOALIM U’MESHIVIM

Here at RIETS, we have a large and growing cadre of shoalim u’meshivim steeped in Torah and ready to answer questions about learning, address issues that come up in the beit midrash, and support each student’s growth as a ben Torah.

We are fortunate to have several batei midrashot on campus, and each has at least one Shoel Umaishiv available during seder time.
