Persian (Farsi) native speaker, born and grew up in Iran, with years of language teaching experience in Iran, Turkey, and currently Canada. Having a mixed cultural background and living in different cities in Iran, I can share what I learned from my journey and all the social and cultural information, including art and music, as well as some features of local dialect of some parts of Iran.
B.A. in English Language and Literature / MEd. student of Teaching Languages in Global Contexts at Simon Fraser University
I have worked as an EFL teacher since 2012 with different age groups. Ironically, Farsi is the second language I teach, though it is my native language. I have participated several workshops regarding teaching languages in general and Teaching Farsi as a Foreign Language.
There are several approaches to teaching Languages, yet no single fixed one is the best. I try to use ones that serve the students' needs best. However, I have a tendency towards Communicative Language Teaching (CLT).
There is always a chance of adapting to the student's schedule. Do not hesitate to ask.
Online lessons can be done through Skye, Zoom, Google Classroom. For in-person lesson, we need to negotiate.
