Meet Rabbi Coffman
Rabbi Chaim Coffman is an Orthodox rabbi, Torah educator, and conversion mentor based in Beitar Illit, Israel.
He is one of the few Orthodox rabbis in the world who runs a structured online conversion program. Over the past 30 years he has guided students from more than 20 countries through the full geirus process, with conversions accepted by Orthodox batei din worldwide.
His background and authority
Rabbi Coffman has studied Torah intensively for over 30 years. His mentor and posek is Rav Moshe Sternbuch, one of the greatest halachic decisors of our generation and a leading figure of the Edah HaChareidis.
Rav Sternbuch fully endorses the program and is available for consultation on halachic questions that come up through the program.
For prospective converts, this matters. It means your conversion preparation is backed by a posek whose authority is recognized across the Orthodox world.
