Liana Wertman joins Dan and Lex to discuss her work as the founder of The Torah Studio, a new (and fully-digital) center for Torah study that encourages people to take ownership of traditional Jewish texts.

[2] You can take a look at The Torah Studio’s current schedule of classes (right now, every Tuesday and Wednesday) at this link.
[3] The Torah Studio recently partnered with Judaism Unbound on our PurimLIVE event. You can watch it in its entirety here! Also, stay tuned for future collaborations with The Torah Studio, perhaps as soon as the holiday of Shavuot (in just a couple months).
[4] Wertman references a “Hevruta Triangle” model that helps her conceptualize how Torah studies could function in a way where there are three components — each of the two “hevrutas” (study-partners), and the text itself. A graphic of this is below, and you can learn more about what it signifies by checking out Elie Holzer and Orit Kent’s book A Philosophy of Havruta: Understanding and Teaching the Art of Text Study in Pairs (if you click the image, you’ll be able to purchase that book!).
