Great first lesson. Focus on spoken Farsi. We reviewed the grammatical structure and started making sentences right away. Made the language seem approachable and accessible.

Zakieh is a very good teacher. She allowed me to practice my speaking in Persian and also correct my pronounciation and reminded me of words that I forgot when I needed to remember them. I look forward to having more lessons with her.
