Golnaz Shamdani

I’ve been learning Persian for a while but never actually taken lessons so I’m missing a lot of basics. Golnaz did a wonderful job answering all my questions, using many examples. She asked questions to make sure she understood what I wanted to learn and asked me to make my own sentences to make sure I know how to use the words correctly. She was very warm and friendly and made me feel comfortable, not afraid of making mistakes. I can highly recommend to book a class with Golnaz!

We have found a truly wonderful topic to talk about - cooking! There are so many interesting words to learn, so many interesting ways to describe even the simplest tasks. This is fun.

We were so immersed in our conversation that we almost lost track of time. Golnaz wonderfully explains unknown words or expressions and provides examples.

Golnaz always selects wonderful texts to read and to talk about. Her lively way to explain expressions and meanigs really contributes to lots of fun in each lesson.

Golnaz is very encouraging and creative in finding ways to make you speak. She listens, corrects and gives examples and explanations whenever necessary. We had a great lesson.

Golnaz really designs her lessons to encourage her stundents to speak freely. She gently corrects mistakes, presents alternative ways to express something. Wonderful!
