What Our Students say
I just wanted to let you know how much Jack and I are enjoying the Bar Mitzvah program. Both of us are learning many new things. I am really impressed with the work, the energy and the passion you put into each session. It amazes me how you are able to keep the interest going for a bunch of 12-13 year old boys, for an hour at the end of a very long day. My wife sits next to us during the sessions and she shares my amazement.

“Both of ours boys now have participated in the program and learned immensely about the right ideals and values when preparing for becoming Bar Mitzvah. The Kahoot quizzes were awesome!”
The B. Family
What an amazing, memorable and meaningful experience. I never had put on tefillin until the year I said Kaddish for my father when I was 45 years old. My son has now done it from his Bar Mitzvah. A huge thank you to Rabbi Sytner for creating this program. I really can’t put into words how fabulous an experience this has been and how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to do this with my son. I’m quite certain this never would have happened without you Rabbi. In a year filled with challenges you gave us this incredible gift that we will never forget.

Hi Eve. Just letting you know how incredibly meaningful today’s meeting was to both Libby and Me!! Aside from all we learned today and the uninterrupted quality time we had together (this NEVER happens), after all was baked, we made a cute challah care package to fedex the friend I mentioned who is in the hospital with meningitis. Spreading all the mitzvot. Thank you!!

I don’t know who loved learning with Eve more, me or my daughter! She spoke to us on each of our levels of understanding. She spoke to our hearts.”

HIGH ENERGY + FAST PACED
Each class begins with a lightning round review of what was learned in previous sessions. Followed by another lightning round of general Jewish knowledge “Stuff All Bar Mitzvah Boys & Bat Mitzvah Girls Need to Know” and then another very competitive online “Kahoot” game show, where the winners take home prizes!
relatable + hands on
The Worldwide Bar & Bat Mitzvah Program isn’t just another hebrew school. This is a true skills-based program. Our goal is to actually give the boys and girls skills for life. Tools and techniques to become effective communicators and Jews that make a difference in the world.


engaging + meaningful
A beautiful part of this program is the quality time spent, and the bond formed, between the fathers and their sons, and mothers and their daughters during this important life cycle event. It becomes a memory that is cherished forever.
WHY NOT JUST YOUR TORAH READING AND A PARTY?
Of course you should celebrate your Bar/Bat Mitzvah the way you want to! Maybe a party with family and friends, a get-together at school? Or perhaps a Zoom party? Torah reading or a Kiddush? All of those things are so important in marking this special occasion! They are fun and exciting and make you feel loved and appreciated!
But then what? What comes next?

Wouldn’t it be nice to have guidance in life centred around Jewish values? Wouldn’t it feel good to truly understand yourself and what you are good at?
Imagine being given the tools to get a head start on life. Imagine feeling like you have the power and knowledge to handle challenging situations with peers, siblings, even your parents. Imagine interacting online with other teens your age going through the exact same life experiences as you are.
The Worldwide Bar & Bat Mitzvah Program is here for you.
In our program you will spend your time feeling accepted, valued, understood and challenged. You will work towards goals, learn how to manage your time, understand your role as a Jewish young adult and more.
