I hold a Master's degree in Teaching Persian to Non-Persian Speakers.
The emphasis is on developing proficiency in communicative skills, with a focus on the practical application of the language through dialogues, phonetics, and vocabulary. A solid foundation in grammar and other basic language skills is provided through the use of real phrases and sentences, enabling students to develop an intuitive sense of correct usage. These objectives will be achieved through the following approaches: speaking, listening, reading, writing, and cultural studies.
Prerequisite(s): None.
Beginner 1: 20 hours
At this stage, you can engage in basic conversations, introduce yourself and others, discuss interests and activities, and ask and answer simple questions. You will also feel comfortable using basic regular verbs in present and past tense.
Beginner 2: 60 hours
In this phase, you can participate in simple conversations but may still require correction in pronunciation, grammar, and handling complex sentence structures. Additionally, you will be able to understand some information communicated in the language.
Lower Intermediate: 60 hours
At the lower intermediate level, you will have the ability to engage in accurate conversations on familiar topics. You will also be capable of giving directions and asking questions effectively.
