Exploring Conversion to Judaism is frightening, exciting, invigorating, and anxiety-producing. What questions should I ask? How will I know if it's right? How long does it take? What will I have to do? Will I ever know enough? Will I ever be accepted? This anxiety and this excitement is completely natural for anyone considering one of the most significant choices of their lives, and considering Jewish Conversion is an extremely significant decision. I have worked with dozens upon dozens of conversion students. It may be scary, but give a call anyway. I don't bite (especially by webcam!)
