An immersive introduction to the Farsi language, with special care toward grammar, vocabulary, and writing. We offer a three-part series of classes beginning with fundamentals in Farsi-I and continuously building on grammar, vocabulary, writing, and reading until students successfully complete Farsi-III. Along the way, we discover much more than language.
Students are assigned weekly homework and also have access to office hours. Quizzes and exams ensure that you're conscious of your strengths as well as areas that could benefit from further refinement.
Please note: Students who've previously not studied Farsi grammar and cannot read/write in Farsi begin with Farsi-I. This also applies to heritage speakers.

Our literature classes are open only to students who've successfully completed Farsi-III or its equivalent. These classes are akin to seminars wherein close reading and discussion of texts take place. Grammatical explanations, vocabulary practice, and reflective writing are employed to ensure that students are sensitized to the nuances of the text. Classes utilize selections from classical Persian literature by world-renowned thinkers such as Ferdawsi, 'Attar, Sa'di, Mawlana (Rumi), Hafez, and others.
Our schedules can be at times unpredictable or maybe your optimal learning environment is a tailored 1:1 setting. Our private lessons option ensure that sessions are curated to your specific short and long term goals. Whether your goal is to build conversational skills, learn to read or write in Farsi, or maybe you've grown up speaking Farsi but never understood the grammar and don't have an expansive vocabulary, our private lessons will ensure that you achieve your goals via a uniquely structured and comfortable approach. Book 10 hours of private lessons and get 30 minutes on us!
