Shadchanim getting even better – a huge step in the right direction!
For six weeks the Shidduch House has been the classroom setting for an in-depth course for the shadchanim given by Rabbi Dr. Yossi Ives. These weekly classes covered an array of psychological insights and practical guidance from the dating expert and author of two books on coaching psychology. There are many reasons a single might be stuck, and, during the course, many scenarios and situations were studied and explored. For many singles, the process goes smoothly and to plan, but there is a percentage of singles that really need self awareness as to why they may be struggling and require help to get past it.
“We are setting up tons of couples on dates but we are seeing a lot of singles struggling. We now have better tools and understanding to navigate and give advice to the couples that are dating in order to help them gain clarity,” said a shadchan who completed the course.
“I have learned so much new and valuable information that will help me when setting up singles,” said another. “I now have a much better understanding about the complexities of different types of people and the ability to address these issues and help the singles move forward.”
“The class was very informative and extremely eye-opening. I gained so many tools to help singles pinpoint and overcome the issues that are an obstacle to meeting and marrying their match” another shadchan commented after completing the course.
The classes were both informative and interesting. A handbook especially prepared for this occasion accompanied the course and the chapters were covered and discussed thoroughly. The Shidduch House Shadchanim proudly received their certificates of completion at the end of the course.
The Shidduch House opened with the goal of assisting in the Shidduch process in any way possible. This course was one of many educational events that have taken place over the last year.
The Shidduch House is available to meet privately with a shadchan in a confidential setting. It really makes a huge difference when meeting the singles and getting to know them on a personal level to be able to better understand and assist them.

Did they teach how vulnerable it is to message a shadchan asking for help? Please shadchanim, answer something. Anything. Don’t ignore our message and give us the blue check.
Once a individual takes a course acceptable by “ALL”
They should have the power/authority to provide a Official Certification for Men/Women coming in to the Shiduch Platform
Next Step, Anyone in the stage for a Shiduch Should be able to provide & demand certification from each other, knowing they share mutual platforms.
Could you send it please?Thanks
And able to provide to their clients
While it might be a nice thing, it isn’t Torah miSinai…
How do we get Shadchanim to be sensitive & respond to our calls and messages? A short message will suffice. Anything but being ignored. It’s hard enough for us to ask a Shadchan and be so vulnerable. They may be equipped with knowledge but sensitivity goes a long way.
Thank you for all you do.
Thank you to the organizers for being proactive and coming up with creative ideas to help and advance the shidduch process.
Much Hatzlacha.
Are there copies of “Shidduch at Second Glance” that are readily available to the public?
Yes! Some girls are lacking emotional intelligence and maturity they go out it’s all fun and games until they realize this is real and they crack under the pressure falling into panic and anxiety, they need help so as to avoid worse off situations! Thanks for all your effort in helping Shadchanjm notice when things are amiss.
Her parents couldn’t pin point her underlying panic and anxiety chalking it up to nerves but there were far greater emotional issues at stake . With Shadchanim educated they can help the parents and girls. This is the progress we need.
Alot of parents don’t have experience/expertise, perhaps these Shadchanim can educate and guide the young boys and girls going out instead of the abundance of broken engagements these days …
Go Mommy!!!
I’m 40 and would like shadchan suggestions. We don’t mingle which is an important value of ours so I need the shadchan to make suggestions. Most say they don’t deal with this age and stage. We matter too. Any suggestions on how to get suggestions? Tysm!
Contact hadar hatorah, few people there are of that age.
it would be help if you could introduce these shadchanim. those of us from out of town don’t know these women.. ty
