TALMUD ATYOUR FINGERTIPSBUT IS IT ACCESSIBLE?“PBMis an incredibleconcept - It’s simpleyet comprehensive approachenables people from all backgroundsand abilities to learn the skills neededto unlock what would otherwise be aninaccessible art. I find myself looking forwardto each session, and am a little sad when eachsession ends. I feel very lucky to be learning ina group that really challenges me in a positiveway to focus on the material, meaning that Iget the most from the sessions. Thank youPBM for putting together such a greatcourse!”Perry Dowell,Edgware“I learnt Mishnaand Gemorah for years,but it wasn’t until I did thePBM course that I learnt all thestructure I had missed. Now I canstart to actually decode Gemorahmyself without having someonealways do it for me. A greatcourse, highly recommended”Harold Miller,Mill Hill“If you are newto learning or not surelet PBM hold your hand andyour attention and take the fearout of learning. It’s a marvellousproven new way of learning that isenthralling and exciting many manypeople across the globe, comein and enjoy being taken to newlevels.”Mike Abrahams,Hendon“Untilnow my learningconcentrated on Tanach with asmattering of Mishnayot. As my familyhave taken their gap years in Yeshivot andMichlalot and returned fully capable of learningGemora independently, my pride was soured onlyby my inability to do the same. And then PBM turnedup on my doorstep in The City - I couldn’t believe mymazal. Every ambition they had for me mirrored my own.But the first shiur started and I felt totally lost. I resolvedafter the first puzzling shiur to continue with PBM weekby week on Sunday mornings, preparing in advance andthen participating in the shiur. And numbness turnedto wonder and wonder turned to an intense desire tolearn more. I now veritably leap out of bed on Sundaymorning to get to PBM and a previously wastedtime of the week has become its highlight.Yeasher Kochachem.”Alan Tapnack,Edgware“An opportunityto learn somethingnew is exciting, and whenit combines both knowledgeand new skills - that enhancehow you think, act and question,it’s electrifying. PBM gives one afantastic opportunity to accessthe word of Gemara.”Saul Tombuk,Borehamwood“PBM might notstand for PhenomenalBrilliant Masterful... but itshould! This is a course to teachbeginners how to learn how to learngemara. It uses baby steps to getyou there. And your hand is held allthe way. Before you know it you willfind yourself actually understandinggemara... Well done PBM...Roll on next term!”Gideon Gabriel,Edgware“I have alwayswanted to have thetools to understand how toapproach a page of Talmud, andthis course really does take youon a journey of understanding. It isimmensely hard work at times but itis also immensely rewarding I can’trecommend it highly enough.”David Nathan,Borehamwood“I have been goingto Gemorah shiurim for over45 years but have always lazily reliedupon the Maggid shiur to translate theGemorah and explain what the Gemorah issaying without making the effort myself to reallyunderstand the structure and flow of the arguments.PBM breaks it down into sections and keywords withgeneral vocabulary and enables you to follow the chainof argument yourself. Although you have to work hard it isvery rewarding and stimulating to study this way in a smallgroup led by an excellent teacher. I am sure there aremany others like me who have not been to Yeshiva whowould benefit from this project which I believe teachesGemorah in much the same way as it is taughtin the introductory stages to Yeshiva students.Furthermore it caters for all levels of existingknowledge and familiarity with Gemorah.”David Levy,Finchley“I’m in my thirdterm now with PBM andevery aspect of the programmeis rewarding - Chavruta learning,shiurim and the whole file of materials.The course is really well thought through,nicely structured and repays investinga little time and effort to imrpove yourlearning. I’d recommend it to anyone at anylevel who wants to form a good habit andlearn Gemara on a regular basis. It’s one ofthe best decisions I’ve made to join thisprogramme!”Richard Carr,Borehamwood
