Thank you for agreeing to provide a letter of recommendation for an applicant to Ma’ayan’s Emerging Scholar Fellowship. 

Ma’ayan has created a one-year fellowship program for an emerging Orthodox female scholar of Jewish texts. The fellowship will provide mentorship, support the development of the fellow’s pedagogy, and provide opportunities to teach.  We are looking for a candidate with a strong background in the study of Jewish texts, who is developing, or wishes to develop, a practice in teaching text-based adult Jewish education. 

We would like to hear about your observations of the candidate as a teacher at any level. Please submit your recommendation with the candidate’s name and your name, title, and institution, to esf@maayan.org by February 19, 2024.

Please address any questions to esf@maayan.org. Thank you.
