Hello! I’m Shifa, a native Pashto and Urdu speaker with 8+ years teaching experience. Born in Peshawar, Pakistan, but originally from Afghanistan, I bring a rich cultural background to my lessons. I hold a Bachelor’s in Chemistry and coding certificates from the University of Peshawar. I teach Pashto, Urdu, and English to diverse learners worldwide—children, adults, women, and seniors—both online and in person. I use the immersive Growing Participator Approach combined with structured grammar and conversation lessons. I’m passionate about language, culture, and empowering students to achieve fluency. I teach English and coding to Afghan Girls and women who can't go to school or living abroad

Öğretmen Olarak Ben
As a teacher, I am patient, friendly, and deeply committed to each learner’s success. I tailor my lessons to fit the student’s level, goals, and learning style, whether they’re a child, adult, or senior. My teaching blends conversation, grammar, reading, and writing, using methods like the Growing Participator Approach for natural language use. I create a supportive and interactive space where students feel confident, motivated, and heard. I believe learning a language is not just about words—it’s about building connection, culture, & confidence. One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been working with Pashtun women living abroad, teaching them Eng to enhance their communication
Derslerim ve öğretme tarzım
My teaching philosophy is deeply rooted in the Growing Participator Approach (GPA), which emphasizes immersive, real-life language use rather than rote memorization or isolated grammar drills. GPA treats language acquisition as a process of gradually becoming an active participant in a new culture, encouraging learners to absorb language naturally through meaningful interaction, listening, and visual aids. This method perfectly complements my belief that language learning should be engaging, practical, and connected to the learner’s daily life.
Alongside GPA, I integrate structured lessons in reading, writing, grammar, and speaking to ensure that my students develop a well-rounded.

Lessons with Shifa are always delightful! She is very well trained, her materials are excellent, and the methods she uses are effective for both conversation with native speakers and building literacy skills. My progress is Pashto has grown exponentially in the last three months, and more importantly, I am having so much fun in the process. I look forward to taking many more lessons with Shifa!

It has been a few months yet that I learn Pashto with shifa. Because I am a beginner from the beginning, I really didn't have any knowledge about Pashto so take time to feel the process.
First we learned the alphabet and the basic to make a sentence, like personal pronoun, demonstrative pronoun, possessive pronoun.
Every lesson we begin with a small daily dialogue, then we see some grammar points, we learn a few verbs per lesson as well. We have some exercises too.
A good thing that she thinks about the culture as well, she teaches me some Pashto proverbs.
Now every class we speak a little about daily life before beginning the lesson and I can feel improvement.
I really appreciate taking class with her. Even if the method was built on writing and scripts, she can adapt her method to your need. I hope in a few months to be able to speak and understand more and more, and to be able to understand some videos or recording.

Thanks to Shifa I learned a lot of Paschto already. She is very kind and polite. I love her way of teaching and her material is great. I’m learning paschto in englisch even through I’m not a native englisch speaker and Shifa makes it feel easy to do so. We always have fun during our lessons and I would definitely recommend her as a teacher.
