Information about Zahra

Hi

If you`re interested in Iran, Persian culture and language, and wish to learn while becoming familiar with the culture behind the language and look for someone who prefers to make good memories and LOVES teaching then I`m your girl!

My method for those who want to learn to speak is repetition, repetition and repetition. Like you learned your own native language from hearing your parents speak it, then as you progress I`ll explain the grammar (it`s super easy).

If you are interested in learning to read and write, (I highly recommend it) as we use Arabic alphabet and you`ll find yourself being able to read a few languages (Urdu with some variation) so two birds with one stone. We don`t have irregular spelling that you have in English so you`ll pick it up fast.

I am very creative in my methods of teaching as I have experience of teaching dyslexic and/or children with ADD. I will find your strengths and help you flourish, while being there for you patiently through the harder parts.

I will discuss the structure of the lessons before hand and we change it as you wish. I provide the learning material.

I am a strong believer in the power of emotional memory, you`ll remember better if the words and sentences are attached to a good memory/ experience so I aim to help you achieve that.

Availability: I am available on whatsapp for a chat in Farsi for a vocabulary builder excercise or recordings for pronounciations anytime of the day or night that you like to get in touch.

I`m currently free for face to face lessons any day of the week and weekends. I offer free first trial sessions and a free session if a block of 5 sessions is booked and paid for in advance. (This is more for your own good believe me, as you are encouraged not to put things off and discipline yourself so I’ve created the incentive to give you a helping hand with sticking to your lessons) 😊;

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have an A** in Persian A-level
Teaching in Iranian Sunday school 2008-10 (Full time)
Teaching children privately 2010-2014 (part time)
Teaching Farsi GCSE, help with essay writing and oral examinations.
Experience of translating books, articles from English to Farsi. Working as an interpreter.
Experience in teaching English and foreign speakers who have Iranian partners and relatives.

Zahra is a great tutor who is able to give unique lessons fitting to your level and purpose for learning Farsi. I`ve learned more in a few lessons with Zahra than I have using other online resources in the last year! She`s given me understanding,confidence in speaking and insight into how Farsi is spoken so that already I feel a better connection with the Farsi speakers in my life.

If (like I did) you are thinking long and hard about which tutor to go for then I wholeheartedly recommend Zahra! Her teaching is excellent, she is personable and accommodating, tailoring the lessons according to your needs and level. Zahra truly cares and makes the whole experience enjoyable. Do it, you won`t regret it.

I think Zahra is great. She prioritises structuring tutorials around what you want to work on and your goals so it feels very personalised. I have had one lesson with Zahra so far. I have a busy schedule but she is flexible with the times and days she is willing to meet for a tutorial.

Zahra is a very wonderful tutor, I have learnt a lot from her lessons and from our conversations in whatsapp. I find it very beneficial to also have the opportunity to learn how to read and write in Farsi enabling me to understand the language in more depth.

Zahra is patient and very welcoming, which makes me as her student very comfortable. I would highly recommend Zahra as a tutor!
