Teaching with Expertise and Emotional Intelligence — that’s Yeda
Hi, I'M GOLAN
I started Yeda to give teens what standard tutoring often misses: structure, mentorship, and confidence that lasts.
With over 15 years of experience in schools, colleges, and mentoring, what inspires me most is helping teens grow in confidence and take ownership of their learning journey.
At Yeda, we go beyond Math and English.
Our programs help teens strengthen their:
-
Focus and motivation
-
Build healthy study habits
-
Gain confidence during high-pressure exams
-
Improve relationships with teachers and school.
Even highly capable teens face heavy pressure - from academics, social media, and personal expectations. When things start to slip, it often shows up not only in schoolwork, but also in the atmosphere at home.
"I’ll try to briefly describe a phenomenal person named Golan because he’s so much more than a teacher, and even more than an educator.
He’s a teacher raised to the power of teacher factorial!
Yeda managed to instill in our daughter self-belief, learning skills - not just in math - and a rare kind of motivation and connection.
She actually looks forward to her lessons with him!
The results speak for themselves: this year, she completed her matriculation in advanced Math with a score of 97%.
I recommend him to everyone I know - and every student he works with seems to make an almost inexplicable leap in their learning.
There’s only one explanation: Golan."

We have known Golan and Yeda, the institute he founded, for over seven years. During this time, we have seen Golan’s remarkable ability to work with students of all levels.
He meets each learner exactly where they are helping the strongest students reach new heights of excellence while also supporting those who find math more challenging to unlock their potential.
His teaching goes far beyond technical knowledge: he brings curiosity, vitality, and positivity into every lesson, making the learning process not only effective but also enjoyable.
What truly sets Golan and Yeda apart is their gift for transforming the way students relate to mathematics. For many, math can feel intimidating or discouraging, but Golan knows how to connect to each learner’s strengths and build confidence step by step. This approach nurtures a positive self-image and a deep sense of capability, which naturally extends to other areas of learning and even to life in general.
The impact of Golan and Yeda is not just academic it is deeply empowering and inspiring.
