Can anyone suggest an easy-going Yeshiva in Canada or the U.S.? This is for a 21 yr old who’s had a difficult youth school-wise, had ups and down in yiddishkeit, but now wants to stabilize himself and grow.
I think you should go to a yeshiva in Israel. You’ll get to experience being in an authentic Jewish environment and it will impact your life forever. What happens in yeshiva in America is that someone in your situation will be accepted in yeshivish that don’t have the best environment for growth. Though difficulty in yeshiva can mean a lot of things.
