Hi! I'm Lina, and I am from northern Afghanistan, now living in Pakistan. My native language is Persian or Dari, but I also speak Pashto, English and some German. I've reached my final year of studying for a degree in engineering, and in my spare time I like to read all kinds of books, and to take photos of the natural world.
Me as a Teacher
Recently I have been teaching Persian/Dari online to English native speakers. I am an experienced teacher, with over six years' experience teaching English as a foreign language to both adults and children, including four years' full time.
My lessons & teaching style
I always plan my lessons carefully, and will use a variety of teaching materials and methods as appropriate to your needs. I am a very empathetic person, so I'll adapt to your learning pace.
My classes will be very dynamic, fun and conversational to make sure you have a good time while you learn this language. Depending on your goals and interests, we can include cultural topics such traditions, food, music and popular media.
I'd really love to help you learn Persian/Dari. If you think you might enjoy it too, why not book a trial lesson today? We can discuss your goals, make a plan and take your language skills to the next level.
Lina had a special activity prepared for today's lesson. She approaches every lesson with a real enthusiasm for teaching, and she is full of ideas of things to discuss. Overall, she's an amazing teacher! Thank you for the lesson, and for all of the thought you put into it!

Lina is a very polite and sweet person. I booked my very first trial lesson with her, in which we discussed my goals and wishes together and what I would like to learn. Lina responded directly to my wishes and would like to implement them in the next Lesson. Lina also prepared a PowerPoint, which she then uploaded in the Chat. I'm looking forward to the next lesson. Thank you very much Lina Jan๐ธ

Lina and I hit it off right away! She was friendly and helpful. I haven't spoken Dari for awhile, but I slipped right back into the language as soon as the lesson started. Great teacher! Thank you!
