DERECH ETZ CHAIM STAFF With a broad background in Jewish education, Rabbi Katz is acutely aware of what can be accomplished in one short year. Holding a B.A. in Education and having directed programs for the Canadian Zionist Federation and the World Zionist Organization, R' Aharon is most proud of his relationships with R' Yaakov Weinberg z"l and R' Moshe Halberstam z"l from whom he obtained semichas.
The father of two sons and two daughters, R' Aharon is currently working on a Masters in Human Resources. He is also a certified shochet who has yet to be persuaded to shecht an animal on yeshiva premises.

At Derech Etz Chaim, Rabbi Katz's afternoon bekius shiur thoroughly completes the entire mesechta each year. Relationships between R' Aharon and talmidim are as often forged at his home as in shiur and students can be found in his living room throughout the week. Despite his involvement with administrative tasks, Rabbi Katz manages to find time for talmidim past and present and always places their personal needs first on his agenda.
