Hi, I’m Tina 📍 born in Iran, now living in Europe.
I love languages, philosophy, the arts, and a good cup of tea.
Living between cultures taught me:
Language is more than words. It holds stories, emotions, and connections. 🍃
I teach Farsi the way it’s spoken, full of feeling, rhythm, and meaning.
Let’s make it a language you enjoy, not just study.
Me as a Teacher
🧑🤝🧑 I’m here to help, not to pressure.
I listen closely, adapt quickly, and teach with care.
🤸 My background in arts and education helps me keep things both thoughtful and creative.
Whether you're a beginner or already speak a bit, we’ll find your rhythm together.
🧘 You’ll feel safe to speak, make mistakes, and try again.
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are simple, flexible, and shaped around 𝙮𝙤𝙪.
Want to talk? Read? Write? or address specific challenges? All possible! 🙌
I use real-life materials: reels, TV shows, songs, poetry, not just textbooks. 🎶🎭
You’ll leave each class feeling more confident and connected. 💪

Tina is an incredible teacher! She takes the time to get to know you, your language level, what tools work best for you, and adapts her lessons to best fit your learning journey. She goes beyond just teaching words and grammar. She has used language learning as a mechanism to make me feel more connected to Iranian culture, and to understand how intertwined language and culture truly are. I couldn’t recommend a better teacher to make you feel confident in the learning process, and help you reach your language goals. As a heritage learner, it’s been an especially meaningful process, and Tina has been so patient, receptive, and encouraging during every lesson. Thank you Tina!

Tina is phenomenal - I usually feel nervous speaking in front of others, but Tina creates an extremely safe, constructive space for learning. I'm really excited for our future lessons.
