Instead of using a traditional teaching method, I use my own little tips and tricks to make the class fun, easy, and effective.

I am completely new to the Persian language and patient Dr Atena is able to impart knowledge to even a thicko like me. Of course every student no matter how good the teacher is has to be motivated to study and practise in his/her's spare time.
Bit by bit my bucket of knowledge will be filled.
I look forward to many (years) more lessons with her.

Her remarkable skills, dedication, and passion make Farsi learning both enjoyable & effective. What truly stands out is her remarkable patience, allowing me to learn at my own pace. Under her guidance, I’m gaining proficiency & improving my communication skills significantly. Her classes are not just informative; they’re a delightful adventure in the world of language, and I’m thrilled to continue learning from her. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking outstanding language education.
