Yeshiva Tiferet Tzion, the renown mesivta high school in Forest Hills, under the direction of menahel Rabbi Moshe Aharonov, held its much anticipated annual father and son learning program that took place this past Sunday, December 31st. As the talmidim’s fathers arrived one-by-one, the atmosphere in the beit medrash was bubbling with excitement and a special kol Torah. The boys filed in, g’morahs in hand, ready to learn together with their fathers and showcase some of their learning techniques acquired since September. The fathers first indulged in some coffee, cake, and refreshments energized to jump right into learning with their sons. The rebbeim also joined the vibrant learning session navigating throughout the beit medrash to answer queries and assist the special chavrutas as needed with learning.
An exciting shiur was delivered by Rabbi Ephraim Feinroth shlit”a, the esteemed tenth grade rebbe, who is well-known throughout the yeshivah for developing each bachor’s unique learning capabilities and allowing their skills to shine. Rabbi Feinroth’s mission is to build confidence in every talmid to read, translate, punctuate, and comprehend g’morah concepts enabling each boy to learn and review material with a chavruta or by themselves.
Rav Yehoshua Cooper, shlit”a, menahel, Mirrer Yeshiva K’tana, Brooklyn, marvelously presented the keynote address transmitting his love of learning Torah with a special geshmak that showcased our prized values of Yiddishkeit.
Senior student Yakkov Musayev was congratulated for making a siyum masechta at the grand luncheon in the campus ballroom that followed the learning. The celebration included spirited dancing where all joyfully participated. As the occasion culminated, every father was handed a charming magnetic portrait of their son as a souvenir. Additionally, yeshivah branded winter gear in the form of YTT ski caps were distributed to both parent and child. At the conclusion of minchah, it was a beautiful scene to watch fathers and sons depart hand-in-hand upon fulfilling a picturesque day of v’shinantam l’vanecha.
