Salaam! Are you in need of a teacher with practical experience? With 10 years of teaching Farsi, I am eager to assist you with pronunciation, grammar, fluency, and idioms. My lessons will be tailored to meet your specific needs and objectives.
I utilize authentic and unique materials and methods, ensuring an enjoyable learning experience. My aim is to help you communicate confidently and effectively in Farsi (Persian). I will assess your background and knowledge to personalize your course. Learning Farsi from a university instructor is not only informative but also enjoyable.Me as a Teacher
When I was younger, I embarked on this endeavor, fully aware that I lacked a formal degree or substantial experience. Undeterred, I devoted several years to teaching Persian, a period during which I not only acquired extensive knowledge but also developed a distinctive teaching approach and methodology. This hands-on experience not only honed my skills but also provided me with invaluable insights and perspectives that have proven instrumental in shaping my teaching plans and strategies.My lessons & teaching style
I put a lot of thought and effort into planning and organizing each lesson I teach. I've come up with some really cool techniques and strategies for teaching Persian (Farsi), and I make sure to personalize them for each class. With my experience, I've learned how to connect with all kinds of learners and have developed some pretty awesome methods that really work. Luckily, most students really like my approach and trust my lesson plans and structures. As a teacher, I really appreciate the trust my students have in me. I've taught students at all levels, from beginners to advanced, and I'm known for being really patient. If you don't believe me, just ask my students! :)My teaching material

Online Persian and English tutorMy brightest experience was achieved here in Italki through meeting and instructing all brilliant students from different countries. I'd treasure this journey and background for the rest of my life.

English TeacherThe experience helped me understand my students. Feelings and struggles that they had practicing Persian or English. As a result, I was well-prepared from the very beginning in Italki. Accordingly, I began to produce a lot of instruction and materials for my students. At that point, I knew how to manage different classrooms, use my teaching materials in specific classes, and employ them properly.

English LecturerI taught English at a well-known university in China. The majority of my students studied the English language subject. As a lecturer, I managed to maintain a higher level of skills in tutoring, and hopefully, I'm the right candidate for Farsi learners, too. I can be of great help.

I feel confident and positive taking Mahdi's professional Farsi lessons as his system prioritises speaking as much Farsi as possible right from the start. The materials used, Mahdi's instruction and encouragement are exemplary. I do think a lot of reinforcement of material learned comes in between lesson, so I am pleased he gives homework with his lessons. Highly recommend Mahdi for a solid structured plan towards learning Farsi!

Before I started having lessons with Mahdi, I could barely speak Persian. But now, thanks to his excellent teaching, I speak it around 80% of the time in lessons, in addition to using colloquial phrases not taught in the textbooks. Today I was able to talk about my week so far in great detail and any mistake I made was corrected and written in the shared document, which allows me to come back to it in the future and revise it. We've also recently finished listening to a chapter of an audiobook which has taught me hundreds of advanced words and massively improved my listening ability. Mahdi is an excellent teacher and I would highly recommend.

Mahdi is always willing to go over concepts and is able to explain in a multitude of ways. He is patient, very knowledgeable, and can relate und adjust to my needs. I have gone from 0 to spontaneous talks with Mahdi's help.
I am an older language learner and couldn't be in better hands.
