Yedias HaTorah - Step By Step
Yedias haTorah is a central yet sometimes forgotten component of being a serious lomeid Torah and talmid chacham. So many lomdim lack guidance in how to acquire yedias haTorah. The sefer in your hands, in the words of HaRav Ahron Lopiansky shlita, is “a much needed practical guide in how to turn ‘learning’ into ‘knowing.’ “
Yedias HaTorah is for you! Whether or not you have been successful at retaining your learning until now, the ideas and methods discussed in this sefer can help you greatly improve. If you are at the beginning of your journey as a serious lomeid Torah, this work can help establish proper attitudes and practices from the start. Additionally, melamdei Torah can use this sefer to significantly enhance the learning experience of their talmidim and to better understand a central struggle many of them are facing.
“Rav Dovid has successfully outlined an approach that even advanced lomdim can benefit from. This sefer is מעט הכמות ורב האיכות, full of עצה ותושיה, and I have no doubt that those who learn it seriously will grow in yedias and cheishek haTorah.”
HaRav Tzvi Kushelevsky shlita
“The sefer has beneficial ideas on how to deepen one’s understanding of learning and how to improve memory.”
HaRav Asher Weiss shlita
“A unique and wonderful sefer… that provides outstanding guidelines in this topic. Certainly anyone who studies this sefer will acquire methods of review. It is fit to be spread throughout the Jewish world.”
HaRav Nissan Kaplan shlita

- A true gift to those who desire to truly know TorahWords cannot express how grateful I am grateful for this book. I must make a confession; I’m no Rav Chaim. For years I have prayed to Hashem to help me improve in my learning, and have the Torah that I learn be part of me wherever I go, so it can always be on my lips, to be discussed with ease.
Hashem has finally answered my tefillos, and the tefillos of other knowledge-thirsty Jews, by putting wisdom into the mind of HaRav Dovid Schoonmaker Shlita, and gifting us with this book. This clear simple knowledge is something understandable and beneficial to anyone who desires to improve; whether you grew up in the Yeshiva world or are a fresh Baal Teshuvah; you will grow incredibly; that I can assure you. For just $16:99, it offers something more valuable than gold; a lifetime of increasing in knowing Hashem’s Torah.Posted on
