This is an incredible shiur! I have never been able to join a Daf Yomi shiur because of my work schedule, and this is perfect! Not only can I do it anytime that suits me, the shiur is at a good pace and easy to understand. The intro and review are incredible and really help to finalize the understanding of the information on the daf! Every day I look forward to my time on dafhachaim.com. You are doing an amazing job of making Torah accessible to anyone at any level!

Thank you for adding immeasurably to my Daf Yomi learning! Rabbi Schwartberg is an amazing Maggid Shiur whose passion for Torah radiates from the computer screen and inspires a higher level of learning and understanding. The 'intro' and 'review' are fantastic! Your use of those learning tools are novel in the world of online shiurim and it makes a big difference in my daily takeaway from the Daf.

Yasher koach! Unbelievable job. I am a Daf Yomi Maggid Shiur and Daf Hachaim is a great tool for preparing the shiur — mainly the introduction and the review.

Y

Y.K.

USA

Absolutely fantastic platform, format, and the shiurim themselves. I find the shiurim concise, clear and engaging. The review video is absolutely fantastic.

Y

Thank you so much for bringing life into Torah, this is really captivating, and it's amazing how enjoyable learning could be. I've waited for something like this for years and years, and I especially enjoy the intro and the reviews. Amazing amazing amazing!

Y

USA

I want to thank you for the Shiurim which come so much in handy when a quick question of how to learn a piece of gemara arises, and with your easy-to-scroll system we can just look up the subject we need. Another beautiful component I enjoy very much is the Review of the Daf. Tizku L'mitzvos!

Y

USA

I just want to give a really huge hakaras hatov for all the work that you do in putting the intro, shiur and review with diagrams and beautifully clear explanations. I live in far off Australia and attend a daf yomi shiur but this site has been brilliant in helping me understand key concepts and also remember dafim.

First of all I want to thank you for the beautiful shiurim on Daf Hachaim, I use it and enjoy it every single day. It made my learning a totally new experience, and I love it.

M

USA

Amazing and superb in every way. I wish this was available to me over 60 years ago for the clarity and level of excellence in transmitting with ease some of the most difficult sugyos. B"H we have merited this today and I can say that this is the first time I have been able to understand better certain sections of various masechtot that I had difficulties with over the years.

D

D.J.

USA

I want to thank you infinitely for all your work. I have B"H 5 years learning daf. When I started Yevamos it was quite difficult to the point of wanting to skip the masechta — but thanks to you I can clearly study and make chazaros very easy and very clear! Tizku l'mitzvot!

J

I am persuaded this is the best virtual learning opportunity to learn and follow the Daf Yomi. Second only to a Chavruta discussion. I find it to be an excellent resource to prepare myself before a Chavruta session. Yasher koach and Todah Rabah.

Y

USA

First of all, a huge kol hakavod for the site, it's really amazing! I'm writing from Sao Paulo Brazil and started using the site yesterday. I'm really impressed, especially by the intro and chazara of the daf! I wish you could feel my happiness and the impact this shiur had on me!

M

I want to thank everyone at Daf Hachaim and the Maggid Shiur. You have made learning Eruvin such an enjoyable experience for me. The way everything was explained so clearly made this very difficult masechta seem so simple. I am overcome with a feeling of tremendous hakaras hatov to you for enabling me to come to this point.

E

Thank you Rabbi Schwartzberg for bringing to life the daf in an understandable and meaningful way. The content and the graphics are an amazing way to visualize the daf. It has helped me tremendously to understand the subject matter. Please continue to bring the daf to your website.

I just got an iPad so I can use the app. Gevaldik! I was able to learn half a blatt while sitting in the doctor's office. I find this easier than carrying a tiny reference gemara around.

N

USA

Fantastic. Perfect. Never seen anything better. Even though English is not my mother language — I learn only with this. One of the great things that make it so clear and enjoyable is the quality graphic effects in the reviews. THANK YOU!!

A

A.

USA

Let me tell you this is a superb site for Daf Yomi. I discovered it recently and haven't been using any other online shiur since then. The shiur has just the right length and the review and PDF are just the right extras to enhance learning.

R

R.N.

USA

Daf HaChaim is second to none! It's not just hearing — eino domeh shemia l'riya! Seeing the Rav plus the unbelievably clear graphical review is pure genius. I managed to jump right back in after missing a few weeks, with a soft landing, thanks to Daf HaChaim.

Y

Y.G.

USA

Thank you so much for this wonderful program. I've gotten so much out of it over the last few years. The fantastic chazara shiurim would do a lot of people a lot of good even without the visuals.

Y

Y.F.

USA

It's really wonderful — makes the daf so much clearer, especially the review. When you leave the blatt and you have the review in your head it makes it so much easier to remember it. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Thank you for such a great project that allows me and all other people all around the world to learn Gemara. That is really amazing!

A

USA

I cannot praise you enough for such a beautiful project. Daf HaChaim is truly revolutionary, and I have no doubt that you are increasing the level of Talmud Torah in Klal Yisrael by leaps and bounds. The lucidity of the shiur, along with the employment of visual imagery and technology, is a model for all of us in chinuch.

First of all I'd like to say THANK YOU for making this amazing learning tool available. As a struggling Baal Tshuvah, this site has been the first place I could FINALLY learn Gemara.

E

I am very impressed with this Daf Yomi format, and have never come across one much like it. I give the Daf here in Passaic NJ as a substitute Maggid Shiur, and I always employ visual aids. I am truly impressed with the clear and organized presentation!

First of all thank you for an absolutely excellent website. I use it everyday! It is very well done. The attention to detail both in design and content is excellent.

D

I was incredibly surprised both by the clarity of the shiur — the review especially — and how much I enjoyed the chazarah! Kol HaKavod! It was a mechayah to listen and grasp the concepts. Your characteristic figures are marvelous. My Yeshiva days were NEVER this geshmak!

P

P.G.

USA

I give a shiur in yeshiva. We do chazara on what we've learnt that week. I print out for the bochurim the relevant sheets from Daf Hachaim and it helps them tremendously. The clarity of both the summary and the diagrams are amazing and give them the ability to internalize the sugyos so much better.

N

UK

Yasher koach on this project — with so many daf yomi shiurim being recorded live, it makes so much sense to have someone give the same type of shiur in a studio to be preserved in clarity for years. I spend a lot of time in the car and with your clear shiurim have been able to listen to the entire Brachos set in just two weeks.

This is a wonderful website. This will be my second cycle and I am enjoying it much more than the first time I learned the Daf.

Daf HaChaim is the best online learning I have ever seen. I'm a beginner and can't learn independently, but Daf HaChaim has got me excited about learning gemara in a way I never thought possible. Thank you so much for making learning gemara accessible.

I am a 17 year old who started daf yomi and I am a beginner in gemara, but Daf HaChaim really helps me. Please keep up the great work. I know others who also use and love Daf HaChaim and the Rebbeim at my Yeshiva love it as well.

I must say I'm extremely impressed by your clear hasbara. I learn in yeshiva, and also learned in a chabura on Eruvin twice. I decided to learn the daf too. I enjoy your 5 minute review immensely — I view it practically daily as it is a great synopsis of the daf, including the diagrams.

What a masterpiece! You made the difficult gemara about kav and soah and eggs look so easy. In the shiur we used your printed sheets and so many people were able to understand it. Kol Hakavod for making such a gemara so understandable. Couldn't have done it without you!

I saw an ad in one of the weekly publications and tried out Daf Hachaim. It was by far greater than my expectations. The Maggid Shiur explains the daf in a very clear and concise manner.

I spent 15 years as a High School Rebbe and am very sensitive to which methodologies work. I think this program is ground breaking!
