From One Bride to Another

What a Kallah Says

Shoshanah is an amazing, kind, and attentive Kallah Teacher. I received Family Purity classes from her before my wedding and loved every second of it. The classes were thorough and Shoshanah always made each lecture relatable to situations that can occur in our times or that have occurred in marriages of this time.

Because of her I felt prepared in everything I needed to know starting with preparations before my wedding, my wedding night, and the wonderful life to come with my husband. Shoshanah was able to answer every question I had and was always ready to accommodate teaching times according to my hectic schedule.

She is a person with a true love for teaching and her students; I have never felt more blessed to have her as a teacher and contact. She was also able to teach me the Orthodox Sephardic halachic standing on Family Purity and had great recommendations for materials to have for references. Shoshanah is always eager to help and I greatly appreciate everything she has done for me.
