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 Jan was was so kind, and had a powerpoint for the session! She pronounced everything many times and then had me pronounce it as well.

Thank you for the lesson! Everything was fine as always, we discussed the topic of children/getting a baby, learned new vocabulary, built sentences with it. At each lesson with Lina, I get a lot of new and valuable information, for which I am very grateful to her!

Lina is an excellent teacher. She is patient and flexible with the class. She took the time to explain some differences between Dari and Farsi, and we practiced some basic conversation which was appropriate for my level. I enjoyed the lesson!
