Rebecca Aryeh is from Woodmere, NY. She went to SKA for high school, spent a year and a half in Israel at Shaalvim for Women, and is currently in Stern College studying psychology. Rebecca is super pumped to be on Michlelet this summer and to be able to learn from and with the inspiring campers.
The girls in Rebecca’s chabura are: Shoshana Farkas (Cleveland, OH), Elianna Rubin (Jerusalem, Israel), Michelle Weingarten (Holliswood, NY) and Rachelli Benoff (Bergenfield, NJ).
Rebecca’s chabura topic is Lessons from Leaders in Tanach. Each chabura focuses on a different leader and goes through a characteristic or lesson that we can learn from them. It then goes through how to practically work towards attaining that characteristic or middah. The goal is to show the progression of middot in our great leaders and to show how each leader had different kochot, and that there’s no one way to be a leader. By the end of the chabura, the girls should feel empowered to take action and make an impact on Klal Yisroel and to always strive to be their best selves.
Q: If you could be any ice cream flavor, what would you be and why?
Shosh Farkas: Very berry extraordinary (it’s a Cleveland thing)- there are a lot of pieces to it and there are a lot of pieces that make me, me. And I’m out of the box, they don’t have this flavor in many places..
Michelle Weingarten: Cookie dough because it has sweet ice cream and hard chunks of dough, so despite the hard things that I may encounter in life, I try to be sweet and nice to everyone.
Rachelli Benoff: Mint chocolate chip: mint is, well, minty. And I like to bring sweetness to every situation and place I go!
Elianna Rubin: Vanilla and chocolate because sometimes we are in the darkness and we must always look for the light!
