Yeshiva Tiferes Yisroel is an Orthodox yeshiva in the Midwood section of Brooklyn, New York. It was founded in 1988 by Rabbi David Harris, Rabbi Zvi Turk, and Rabbi Yehuda Jacobson, with funding primarily from Irving Langer.[1]
Enrollment is approximately 800 at the preschool, elementary, middle school, high school, and beis medrash levels.[2] Most students continue in the associated kollel for three to eight years.
Rabbi Turk and Rabbi Jacobson are currently co-principals of the yeshiva, and teach the second and first classes of the beis medrash, respectively. It is a Lithuanian-style, Haredi but non-Hasidic yeshiva focusing on Talmud study.

The goal of the fledgling yeshiva was to inculcate in the talmidim a love for Torah embedded in middos tovos and also supply more “manpower” to the world of chinuch across America and beyond. Fortuitously, Rabbi Turk reached out to his cousin, Mr. Irving Langer, a young real-estate manager and developer, to gain some insight into the Brooklyn market. Mr. and Mrs. Langer were no strangers to building ventures such as this. Embracing their role as leaders and supporters of the Five Towns community since moving there, the Langers were instrumental in building Rabbi Kalish’s shul and the TAG high-school building and were pivotal in Darchei and numerous other community initiatives and institutions. Mr. Langer saw this as a “buying opportunity” and jumped in to be that person to make this dream a reality.
