Rabbi Yisrael Herzberg was raised in Woodmere, NY. After studying in Yeshivat Kerem B’Yavneh in Eretz Yisrael and attending Yeshiva University, Rabbi Herzberg learned in Kollel in Ner Yisroel for eleven years. He holds a BA in mathematics from UMBC, in addition to a BA and MA in Talmudic Law from Ner Yisroel. Rabbi Herzberg moved to Silver Spring and joined the staff of TSGW in 2018 as the 3rd grade Rebbe, a position he still currently holds (and loves!). He has since taught both boys and girls classes, and in the summer, Rabbi Herzberg has served as the head counselor of the Camp Shomrai boys division. Rabbi Herzberg lives in Silver Spring with his wife, Orit, who teaches in the Yeshiva of Greater Washington girls high school, and their children.
