The Roslyn Synagogue has a tradition of participating in the education of the next generation of modern orthodox rabbis. The Roslyn Synagogue and Rabbi Block annually host a rabbinical intern. The rabbinical intern, at regular intervals, provides sermons and educational activities to the Roslyn Synagogue congregation, while getting real life rabbinical experience.

 

 Our current rabbinic intern:  Dani Bauer

Dani Bauer is currently in his second year of study in Yeshiva University’s rabbinic ordination program and also the teaching assistant for Rabbi Feldman’s Talmud class on Gemara Shabbat. This past academic year, Dani was the Youth Director in Congregation Bais Medrash of Bergenfield where he ran programming and groups for the youth department. Additionally, Dani is participating in a program at the DRS Yeshiva High School for Boys in Woodmere, where he will teach teens in both one on one and group settings. Dani studied for 3 years at Yeshivat Sha’alvim where he received a Bachelors in Talmudic Law degree.
 
Prior to his studies at Yeshiva University, Dani completed his Bachelors of Arts Degree in Psychology at Lander College for Men. During that time, he was involved in outreach through NCSY and worked as an NCSY advisor in the New York region for two years and the New Jersey region for one year. Dani has also contributed to NCSY summer programs, devoting four of his summers to teaching teens in Israel. He participated for three summers on NCSY Kollel, where he introduced teenagers to the Talmud, and one summer on The Jerusalem Journey, where he introduced unaffiliated teens to Judaism and their heritage. 
 
Dani is greatly looking forward to becoming part of the Roslyn community.
