Custom Daf Examples

See how Rabbeim, tutors, and mechanchim use Custom Daf to solve real classroom challenges and create clearer, more effective learning experiences for their talmidim.

Example 1: Helping a Student with Vision Challenges

Private Tutor • One-on-One Learning

The Request

A tutor working with a student who has vision difficulties needed a clearer, easier-to-read Gemara while still preserving the traditional tzuras hadaf. The student was learning Perek Hakones, and enlarging the text with additional spacing between words had already shown significant improvement.

The Custom Daf Solution

We created two customized versions of the daf — one with nekudos and one without — using enlarged text, increased spacing, and a cleaner visual layout while maintaining the feel and structure of the original daf.

The Result

The student was able to follow the Gemara more comfortably and independently, helping the tutor focus more on understanding the sugya and less on helping the student keep his place.

Example 2: Making Teaching Gemara Easier

Rebbi • Classroom Learning

The Request

A Rebbi requested a customized version of Hamafkid 33b with nekudos and wider spacing between the lines to make the Gemara text easier for his talmidim to read and follow during shiur.

The Custom Daf Solution

We prepared a cleaner, more readable daf with added spacing and clear nekudos while maintaining the familiar structure and feel of the original Gemara page.

The Result

The talmidim were able to read more comfortably, stay focused longer, and follow the flow of the Gemara with greater clarity throughout the shiur.

Example 3: Custom Worksheets & Tests

Rabbeim • Classroom Worksheets & Assessments

The Request

Rabbeim wanted engaging worksheets and tests that would help talmidim actively understand the Gemara while also making grading faster and easier. The goal was to create professional materials that still felt connected to the actual daf and flow of the sugya.

The Custom Daf Solution

We created customized worksheets including:

  • Shakla V’Tarya Ordering Exercises — students receive lines from the daf out of order and must correctly number the flow of the sugya, with an answer key for quick grading.
  • Word Identification & Explanation Sheets — students identify highlighted or underlined words and explain their meaning and role within the Gemara.
  • Additional formats including footnotes, mareh mekomos, and bottom-page explanations while preserving the original tzuras hadaf.

The Result

The worksheets made shiurim more interactive, helped talmidim think through the Gemara more independently, and gave Rabbeim a much more efficient way to review comprehension and grade assignments.
