Welcome to the OneTime OneTime Academy

Hi Rabbi Scheller,

We just wanted to thank you for your amazing stories. Our kids love listening and sharing your stories. They especially loved "yossi od pa'am" which, with along with a discussion on doing chazara, inspired us/them to take on learning something 101 times. Here is a picture of the charts for our kids aged 6-11 to chazer  chumash, mishnayos, or tehillim 101 times. We named it yossi od pa'am. They are already telling us how good it feels. 

Thank you again for the inspiration!

I liked your OneTime story book very much, and I'll tell you why. 

First of all, you have a real knack for relating an idea, an abstract concept to a story. The interesting thing is that these stories get stuck real well inside the head and heart, and keep coming back to mind over and over again.

Another thing, which I like is that these mesholim have the quality of "teyn le-chochom ve-yechkam oyd". Even though you provide a nimshal, it is not "frozen" so to speak, the reader can formulate it differently, or even add an additional aspect to it. This quality makes the message more universal, cross cultural. I mean, that even though your stories and their corresponding nimsholim are styled for the American audience, I can easily modify them to suit the Russian mentality, for example. Also, when a story comes back to my memory, sometimes all of a sudden I get a new insight into the issue.

Dear rabbi eli scheller.                                                                                                I'm 19 I watch your shiurim every day for a few years now they are so interesting, humorous and most importantly inspiring. (It helps stop u from watching things that won't necessarily bring you far in life) I went through quire a journey in the past 2 years and ur videos are what kept me strong and going in life when I was in my darkest moments. I don't know what I would have done without it. I watched ur videos literally all day.                                               I'm sharing this with u because I felt like you had to know how powerful ur stories are to so many people. Rabbi scheller you really changed my life! Please continue to inspire with your stories!

 I am living with my family of B"A"H 7 children in Zurich, Switzrland, and my kids really love your stories and your inspiration. My 15 year old daughter and 12 year old son are very drawn to you and I want you to know how your positive influence carries over to Europe as well. 

May you be zoiche to continue being marbitz Toirah all over and have simcha and nachas from your own family.

 Hello Rabbi Scheller, Mrs Faigy Liebermann from Manchester UK. I want to  thank you for your fantastic stories and your Gemara shiurim. My son, Yitzchok Dov, aged 11 LOVES your content. You are doing such important and holy work. Thank you, and please keep on producing more content. Wishing you lots of hatzlocho.

Rabbi Scheller,

Just wanted to give you a big yasher koach from Eretz Yisrael.

Last month my third grade son was stuck at home since school was closed because of the war. He was starting to go a little crazy from being home (and so were his parents).

We needed some kosher entertainment to keep him busy and we came across your videos. My son loved them.

He couldn't remember your name so next time he was looking for something to watch he said "Tatty can you put on the OneTime OneTime Rabbi?"

Thank you for helping us keep our sanity during the war and lots of continued hatzlacha in your amazing work.

Yasher koach,

We never saw the kids so captivated by your stories! You electrified the crowd with amazing stories and Torah lessons. R' Eli, thank you!

Wow! Rabbi Scheller was amazing! Every single boy was engaged and enjoying what he was saying. I enjoyed it as well, and I really loved seeing the faces of my students as they were listening. The theme he spoke about was PERFECT and could not have have been better timed. I feel like the lesson he was teaching is something that my class really needed recently as a reminder. Thank you so much for arranging this!
