Mastering Kriahthe Smart Way
Mastering Kriahthe Smart Way
Master Kriah in just six weeks!
The Endless
Tutoring Cycle
Many children today of all different ages struggle with Kriah reading. Some make mistakes while reading, while others read but with great effort and are quickly tired out.
Years Without
Real Progress
Struggling children are sent for extra tutoring, practicing to read words and pessukim. But oftentimes the improvement is slow and minimal. Children attend tutoring for months or even years (!) and not master Kriah.
It Can Be
Different
Kriah is a defined skill with a logical buildup.
By identifying which skills a child is missing, it is possible to teach or strengthen those skills for perfect reading. Progress should be clear and noticeable within a short time.
Reading Should
Flow Naturally
A proper Kriah reading should flow. Some read slower than others, but their reading should be fluid. If a child finds it too burdensome to read, reads too slowly, or reads with mistakes, this is a sure sign that they are missing certain skills.
Knowing The Rules
Is Not Enough
Did you ever wonder how a child can know all of the nekudos yet find Kriah challenging?
Combining letters and nekudos is only the first step of Kriah. The second and more critical step involves 2nd-level skills that produce an accurate and fluid reading. An older child (or an adult) reading with mistakes is generally missing some vital 2nd-level skill.
The Gift
of Reading
Imagine the pride at being able to open a sefer and read with confidence. That’s the everlasting gift you can give your child.
Addressing Common Struggles
Do they skip syllables?
Reading with mistakes is a sure sign that specific skills are missing. We identify exactly which 'bricks' are absent and strengthen them.
Do they confuse Nekudos?
Combining letters and nekudos is only step one. We teach the critical second-level skills that prevent confusion and produce accurate, fluid reading.
Is reading tiring?
If a student reads with great effort or gets quickly tired, they are missing the techniques to build rhythm. We turn burdensome reading into fluid reading.
Do they self-correct?
Constant self-correction usually means the student is guessing. We provide specialized techniques to remove uncertainty so they get it right the first time.
Is their confidence low?
One-on-one attention provides a safe environment where confidence grows. Students feel good about their reading and look forward to the lessons.

Mrs. Devorah
Leah Hellinger
Having taught Kriah for 15 years at schools in Crown Heights and Kingston, PA, Mrs. Devorah Leah Hellinger observed that many students needed more than just repeating and memorizing.
By identifying what every child struggled with, she found she could bring any child to fluent reading.
After working with numerous older students, she created the Kriah Mastery program – in which students with basic background can learn all the skills they're missing...
in just 6 weeks!
