One track mind? that’s something that comes natural with me. I’ve never been the type of person that can multitask. I’m either working on one project or butchering many others. If I’m doing the laundry let me focus on that. Please don’t ask me to take out the trash. I’m going to get distracted and there will only be one load clean. What does this have to do with language learning? Here’s the thing, I live in a world where my target language isn’t spoken. Whether I am at the supermarket, work, or home. Most people are going to speak to me in my native language. So with all my education in my target language, my environment around me is like gravity forcing me back towards my native tongue. So language learners, it’s a real challenge. We are up against all odds! This is why I mentioned my “one track mind.” Forcing my target language in my daily routine has been that one load of laundry. And I’ve been learning Spanish for 10 years now. I’ve slept with audio playing in the background. I’ve visited “El Mercado,” many times. I’m in the restaurants enjoying Mexican cuisine and also Venezuelan cuisine. All in efforts to immerse myself in the language. And I’m grateful because I’ve reached a level of fluency. Sometimes I understand every word spoken to me. Sometimes I only understand a portion. Sometimes, I read without hesitation in my target language. Sometimes it’s a few words that I need to understand. I often tell people “learning a language is a lifestyle!” It’s not a sprint, it’s an adventure. It’s not about how fast you get there, it’s about enjoying the journey. So take your time and have fun, don’t beat yourself up for time loss. Just pick up where you left off. Resist the gravity! Airplanes were made to do so and we can too with Language Learning. Of course we have to communicate in our native language, but what can we do to propel further into our target language? Keeping this question in forefront of our minds will help to keep making steps forward!

Hi! I’m Maziar, a native Persian (Farsi) speaker from Iran. I help students speak natural, everyday Farsi with confidence. My lessons focus on real conversation — the kind of Farsi people actually use, not textbook language. I’ll help you improve your speaking, pronunciation, and understanding step by step. Whether you want to communicate with Iranian friends, understand Persian movies, or feel comfortable speaking Farsi in real life, my classes are designed around your goals. My teaching style is relaxed, friendly, and practical. I correct mistakes naturally while keeping the conversation flowing. Book a trial lesson and start speaking Persian from day one.

What kind of books do you like reading? Maybe different people have different answers, meanwhile people can give different answers in different periods in their lives. Among these kinds of books, I really enjoy reading story books. It's not only a great memory of my childhood that my parents spent time telling me interesting storys from story books, but also a terrific moment that I read my son's favourite story books with him. Some of the storys I had read when I was kid.So, when I spend time reading books with him, a specific feeling touches me. It's really sweet. My son hears really carefully each time he walk toward me with his favourite books. He always shares his experieces which are very similar to the characters.He sorbs lots of nutrition from books that helps him grow healthy and stronger. This is the purpose of reading books for me and my son.
