Judaic Studies - Talmud/Tanakh/Halakha- Teacher

In the heart of New York City is Ramaz - a Modern Orthodox Day School with a rich history of Jewish education, academic distinction, and nurturing of individual abilities and aspirations. To be a student at Ramaz is to be encouraged, supported and taught how to discover the best in oneself and in others, and to gain a profound, spirited sense of responsibility to the world.

The Ramaz Upper School is looking for a Judaic Studies teacher to teach Talmud and/or Tanakh and/or Halacha and/or Jewish Philosophy. We are looking for a teacher with a strong knowledge of Torah and pedagogical skills who is passionate about inspiring high school students towards a deeper connection with Torah and Judaism. 

Full-time teachers teach about 20 periods each week (4 per day) and beginner teachers are offered support and mentoring. We are interested in new teachers as well as experienced teachers and can offer growth opportunities for educators who are looking to advance their careers.    

Full-time members of the Judaic Studies department are expected to attend daily tefila (3-4 times per week) and to serve as religious role models for the students. Teachers should attend one of the Shabbatonim and should participate in the informal, religiously focused programming. 

Please contact Rabbi Kenny Schiowitz for more information or to submit a resume and cover letter at [email protected] and [email protected].
