I’ve been wanting to take Reb spetners begginees crash course for years. One reason or another every year it doesn’t work out.

Is there any way to hear her speak without attending in person? If not, doesn’t anyone else give an online parenting course that is similar mahalach as Reb Spetner?

I went to her course years ago. They do record it but it's nowhere online. Maybe ask the organizers if you can just pay for the recording if you really can't attend in person.

I think Rebbitzin Rivka Levitansky’s courses are based on Rebbitzin Spetner. She does them over the phone.

As someone who has heard great things about this course, can someone explain the mahalech/main points in a nutshell? I would also love to know if a recording is available.

Thank you!

Recording is only available for those who go to the course afaik.

The course is GOLD. Can't really explain the mehalach in a nutshell, but example of points covered:

Emotional baseline
She's very into the 80/20 rule
How to pick your battles so there is more positivity in the house
Cooperation techniques
Sibling rivalry
How to avoid perception of favoritism with siblings
Yidishkeit and mitzvos- here the 80/20 rule doesn't apply. Needs to be 100% positive.

I believe Rebbetzin Ruthie Lynn’s courses are based on Rebbetzin Spetner’s.

I'm her class..she's excellent..my one complaint is that it doesn't start on time and she's hard to pin down outside of class. Otherwise, very practical and on point. It's refreshing. This is the first class she's given in many years so you'd probably have convince her to do another one.

Esti Hirshfeld is zoom live, but I believe you get the recordings-you can ask her!
By comprehensive derech-I feel like she gives you a mindset. How to think about parenting, kids, situations.
Its very empowering because if you practice it, it's not reactive parenting. It's a wholesome way of being and thinking - and it makes sense

She teaches Reb. Spetners course.
It's not her own material. If she doesn't know the answer to something, she'll ask Reb. Spetner.
