Persian Conversation, Reading, Writing and Grammar
From 115.09 C$ /h
I have a masters in Teaching Persian as a Foreign Language. I’m a computational linguist, a translator, and a language-lover with experience teaching different levels. I have more than 6 years of experience teaching English to children aged 3 to 13. I have taught Persian in Iran, Greece and Sweden. In Sweden, I collaborated with Uppsala University and taught Persian in a distance course. To make students be able to communicate and enjoy their time at the lesson is my goal when teaching.
My favourite teaching method is the communicative approach. However, being up-to-date is essential to me, and therefore I always have an eye on the new methods and ideas in language teaching.
Lessons with a focus on conversation are suitable for students who are already familiar with Persian. It is basically a friendly chat for a brush-up on one's Persian speaking/listening skills! We can decide on the subject of the conversation together. This lesson could specifically be useful for those who for any reason forget their Persian, or those who come from an Iranian background but never got a chance to use their Persian because of not living near a native Persian speaker.
Lessons with a focus on reading, writing and/or grammar work for anyone interested in learning Persian, regardless of having any background in Persian. In the grammar lessons you will become familiar with the ins and outs of the Persian language.

About Me
I tend not to restrict myself to one or two things since my fields of interest are many. I am an active person with a background in learning and teaching languages, writing, singing, and figure drawing. But above all, I am very good at dealing with and understanding different types of people and paving the way for myself and those I am working with. Developing and maintaining relationships is very important to me.

For over 20 years, I’ve been closely following Iranian and global cinema. I am very much into the world of good movies and am not biased to a specific genre. This gives my students the chance to have a variety of choices in choosing a movie they’d like to watch. I am a very patient teacher and was given a lot of positive feedback about it by my students. I am also very familiar with Iranian culture, Persian expressions, proverbs and sarcasm. Above all, being fluent in English makes it easy for me to give the best translation/equivalent from Persian to English when reading a film script.
This lesson is designed for students in intermediate level and above. A student should already be able to understand written and spoken Persian reasonably well, so that they can watch and make sense of a piece of a Persian film without subtitles. Then at the lesson all the unclear points will be clarified by reading through the lines of the film script together. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it?
