About Me
Hello! I'm a Berlin-based architect and urban researcher with a PhD in Urban Planning and over 10 years of experience in design, education, and sustainable development. Alongside my professional work as an architect, I create and lead creative workshops for children — a heartfelt part of my practice that combines my passion for architecture and child development.
Whether you're curious about architectural drawing, exploring urban spaces, preparing for design studies, or simply want to try a hands-on project — I offer lessons tailored to your interests in a friendly and supportive environment. My classes are available in English, German (B2–C1), and Persian, and I teach both online and in person.

Let’s build something inspiring — together.

Dive into the magical world of Persian storytelling! In this playful and creative class, children will explore classic and modern tales in Farsi through interactive storytelling, drawing, and simple theater techniques. Each session brings a new story to life, encouraging kids to engage with language, imagination, and cultural traditions.

As an experienced educator and native Farsi speaker, I offer a fun and nurturing environment for children to build their vocabulary, express emotions, and connect with the Persian language in meaningful ways.
By the end of the course, your child will be able to:

🗣️ Understand and retell short stories in Farsi with confidence

🎨 Illustrate stories through drawing and expressive activities

🌍 Explore cultural themes and values through beloved Persian tales

💬 Learn new vocabulary and improve listening comprehension

🎭 Engage in simple role-play to bring characters to life
