Ayal Ben Or
Youth, Community and Israel Educator
Shalom!
I joined the wonderful FRS team in November 2024 as a Youth, Community and Israel Educator. You can find me leading CLaL Massuot sessions, Kuddle Up Shabbat, and various young family and youth programmes, among other activities!
Originally from Jerusalem, where I was born and raised, I grew up in Kehilat Kol HaNeshama. My involvement in Noar Telem, the Reform youth movement, sparked my passion for informal education. For the past six years, I have worked in Hong Kong as a song leader and educator, where my love for music and community truly flourished.
I also have experience working with children with additional needs, stemming from my national service (Sherut Leumi), where I supported blind and deaf individuals as well as children with chronic illnesses. Additionally, I have worked as a community interpreter in hospitals, schools, universities and even hair salons! I also studied sign language translation at Bar Ilan University.
