About Me
italki teacher since Sep 22, 2018InterestsTravelMedical & HealthcareFoodSports & FitnessFashion & Beauty
My name is Shirin.
I'm originally from Iran but I'm living in Turkey right now.
I speak Persian, which is my mother language, English, French and a little bit Turkish.
I'm a bit shy but having worked as a teacher for many years, I have learned to communicate in other languages without any fear and I constantly encourage my students to do the same.
Je m'appelle shirin, je suis iranienne mais j'habite actuellement en Turquie.
Ma langue maternelle est le Farsi (Persan), et je parle également l'anglais, le français et un peu de turc
JE SUIS PONCTUELLE, PATIENTE ET SOCIABLE. (I'm ponctual, patient and sociable)Me as a Teacher
I have been working as a French teacher since 2009.
Conversation, beginner lessons and test preparation are my specialities.
I always try to create a friendly and positive atmosphere in my classes.
To Farsi learners : Speaking a mother tongue is one thing and teaching it is another : I know all the grammar you need to learn and I'm able to explain it using an easy and understandable way. The idiomatic expressions that you could learn talking to a native speaker can help you a lot expressing yourself in this language.
دوست دارین با هم فارسی یا فرانسه صحبت کنیم؟
(Do you like to speak Persian or French?)
I'm waiting for you, French or Persian? let's go! My lessons & teaching style
In every lesson I use a different method according to my student's needs :
French Test preparation : Samples, structure explanation and trics to answer questions provided. The focus will be on upgrading student's level in All 4 skills.
French Beginners : A book will be chosen according to student's preferences and we'll start from scratch, focusing on correct pronunciation and daily conversations.
For Farsi learners : I share my own document which contains alphabet, dialogues and grammar.
I also teach Farsi using a special book written for foreigner Persian learners.
Free discussion lessons :
In both languages, I have many topics to discuss about with many words to learn.My teaching material

She’s incredible and truly knows her stuff. If you’re considering taking classes with her, don’t wait—you won’t regret it. I really appreciate how she notes my mistakes and takes the time to correct them afterward. Her teaching style is clear and effective, and the advice and guidance she provides have been so helpful. Merci beaucoup!

I have been preparing for TEF for the past few months and Shirin has been extremely helpful in Expression Orale and Expression Écrite sections. She analyzes my mistakes, gives my level and provides recommendations on how I can improve my level.
Thanks a lot for the help!!

She is an outstanding teacher. Her level of patience is worth admiring, after taking lessons with her i am able to confidently speak french to a certain level. Moreover, she is very underStanding. She tries to adjust as per the students needs. Would recommend her always.
