Moshe Maltz is returning for his third summer on NCSY Kollel and his second as a madrich. Growing up in Woodmere, NY, he attended DRS Yeshiva High School and spent two years at Yeshivat Sha’alvim. He is about to begin his second year at Yeshiva University.
Moshe is privileged to have some of the best guys around in his chaburah. The chaburah has been having a blast and has grown together as a tight-knit chevra since day one. Leading off is Avraham Schreck (Lawrence, DRS), who continues to contribute each day through his sharp questions and keen insights on whatever it is that the chaburah is learning. Next up is Yakov Meisner (Cedarhurst, MAY), who has spearheaded growth opportunities that have enhanced the chaburah’s learning and overall experience together. Down Branch Boulevard, you’ll find Aiden Buchbinder (North Woodmere, DRS), who was essential not only in our chaburah basketball game (leading us to victory) but also in insightfully getting us to the depth of each sugya. Aiden is privileged to be classmates with Avi Burns (North Woodmere, DRS), another essential member of the chevra. Avi’s drive for Torah and one-of-a-kind sense of humor have brought the chaburah closer together through our learning. Right next door to Avi in North Woodmere, you’ll find Dani Klein (North Woodmere, MAY). Dani’s creativity (don’t forget his spectacular drawings) and drive for learning have truly enhanced the chaburah’s learning each day.
This year, the Chaburah has focused on many different topics pertaining to Shabbos and Talmud Torah. Some of the exciting sugyos include Sports on Shabbos, Making Early Shabbos, Oneg and Kavod Shabbos, and Bigdei Shabbos. Additionally, the guys have devoted time to speaking hashkafically and halachically about different aspects of Talmud Torah. Before beginning our topic of the day, a chaburah member presents a piece of Torah that they prepared and worked on during their own time. This has been a tremendous opportunity for everyone to search for their unique chelek in learning and to share their excitement with the rest of the chaburah.
Moshe and the guys have had an amazing summer so far and are looking forward to continuing that momentum for the rest of the summer and beyond!
