Me as a Teacher
As a university professor with a PhD in literature, I have almost 10 years of teaching experience, either online or at academic institutions. Specifically, I've been teaching Farsi online since 2016 and throughout these years, I have developed customized materials for all age groups, levels, and interests. I provide comprehensive courses for all levels ranging from A1 (Beginner) to C3 (Advanced). Yet, all the lessons are customized catering to your needs and goals. Please have a look at the following section. Read the definition and the example given for each division and decide into which group you may fit. It can help you have a rough idea of where you stand.
My lessons & teaching style
A1. Absolute Beginner
A2. Beginner: I can understand a few things in Farsi
B1. Pre-intermediate: I communicate simply and understand in familiar situations. Example:
تابستانها به شمال ایران می روم چون هوای آنجا بهتر است (formal)
B2. Intermediate: I understand well and can use basic tenses:
بعضی وقتا با دوستم می رم باشگاهی که مرکز شهره (fluent)
C1. Upper-intermediate: I speak and understand well but still make mistakes. Example:
روم نشد بش بگم این کارا بش نمی آد (fluent)
C2. Advanced: I speak and understand very well but have problems with unfamiliar situations. Example:
از دستش کلافه شدم از بس که لجِ آدمو در می آره
C3. Fluent: I speak and understand fluently. Example:
بزن قَدِش !

Wer persisch lernen möchte, sollte diesen Professor wählen. Ali verwendet ausgezeichnetes selbst erstelltes und individuell angepasstes Unterrichtsmaterial, ist sehr geduldig und motivierend. Es schien mir hoffnungslos, diese schöne Sprache zu wählen. Danke, Ali!
I highly recommend this teacher to learn farsi!
