By middle school, everyone knew: Ari wasn't a “learning type.”

He simply couldn't keep up.

While his classmates moved through Gemara, he stumbled over Hebrew. While they debated Tosfos, he struggled to decode Rashi.

At 15, he left yeshiva

Trade school was fine. But there was always this ache — this sense of what might have been, if only he could do what everyone else did naturally…

If only he could read Hebrew.

At 19, almost by accident, he encountered the Confident Kriah™ Method. 

It was different from the start. CKM™ showed him why reading had been so hard. Where his brain got stuck. What skills he’d been missing that everyone assumed he had.

Hebrew reading finally made sense.

Six months later, Ari made a decision that shocked everyone.

He went back to yeshiva.

He could read the Gemara. Follow the machlokes rishonim. Participate in the svara.

Because he'd finally been given the tools to access what had always been locked away for so many years: confident kriah.
