Dr. Dan Aviv
Hi! A little about me... I have been engaged in Jewish learning as an educator, early adopter, lecturer, professor, published scholar and author for almost thirty years.
I've taught in and designed curricula for every setting where Jewish learning generally takes place: day and high school classrooms, supplementary schools, adult education seminars, university lectures, summer camps and Israel experiences, teacher training programs and e-learning symposia.
In addition to co-founding ADRABA (adraba.ca), an online Jewish high school, I recently completed a nine year run as host of TanakhCast, a rollicking bi-weekly podcast about the Bible, four chapters at a time.
I also have three kids, two books and one MacBook Pro - but I'm most proudest of the former!
