Institutions I recommend for Jewish study in the Boston area:

Ma'ayan provides women in the Greater Boston area with a setting for intensive study of traditional texts. The classes are held at various locations in Brookline and Brighton.

Hebrew College, located in Newton, promotes Jewish literacy through outstanding graduate and undergraduate study of Judaism; preparation for the rabbinate, cantorate, Jewish education, and communal professions; and lifelong learning opportunities.

Yad Yaakov is an organization for Jewish education, based in Israel. One of the main teachers, Yosef Leibowitz, is a rabbi with whom I've studied at the annual CAJE conference. Leibowitz is a dynamic teacher in person. I always arrange my time at the conference to be able to attend as many of his lectures as possible. Thanks to the distance-learning program at Yad Yaakov, we can study with Rabbi Dr. Leibowitz from the comfort of home.
