SPARKS AFTER SCHOOL

Not Just a Hebrew School

Imagine a child who feels the warmth, pride and joy of Judaism.

These are our students at Sparks After School (formerly Jewish Tutoring Club)!

 

 

Chabad Sparks is a vibrant Jewish learning program for children, designed to foster a strong, positive and meaningful connection to their Jewish identity.

Our one-on-one student teacher ratio gives your child undivided attention, allowing each tutor to focus on a child’s individual needs, moving at their own pace.

We use a high-quality, engaging curriculum developed by CKids, which brings Judaism to life through interactive lessons, discussions, stories and hands-on activities. Children explore Jewish values, holidays, mitzvot and traditions in a way that is relevant, exciting and age-appropriate.

For Hebrew reading, we use the internationally acclaimed Aleph Champ program. This structured and motivating system allows children to progress step-by-step at their own level, building confidence and fluency in Hebrew in a fun and rewarding way.

We are dedicated to making the richness of our Jewish heritage accessible to every Jew, regardless of affiliation or level of observance.

Chabad Sparks prides itself on being a safe, nurturing and welcoming space for every child.

All staff hold a valid WWCC and undergo appropriate training.

At Chabad Sparks, we have one goal:
To help our students see Judaism as intelligent, relevant, joyful and something they are proud to call their own.
