I'm a native Farsi speaker. I was born and raised in Iran and immigrated to the U.S. 23 years ago. I also speak English fluently. I can help you speak and write in Farsi and enjoy reading poetry.

Perfect! I was nervous to begin lessons with Shahrzad, but she’s made the learning process so approachable. You can expect tailored lesson plans, plenty of encouragement, and thoughtful assignments between sessions to help the lessons stick. She’s an excellent teacher - highly recommend!

Perfect! Shahrzad has been a truly wonderful teacher. As an Iranian born and raised in the United States, I primarily spoke English growing up and have always felt somewhat insecure about my Farsi speaking abilities. From the very beginning, Shahrzad created a supportive and welcoming environment where I felt comfortable making mistakes and learning without judgment.

I absolutely love her teaching methods. After each lesson, she sends homework along with voice recordings reviewing exactly what we covered that day. This has been incredibly helpful and goes far beyond what many tutors and teachers I have worked with have provided.

If you are looking to learn Farsi or improve your language skills, I highly recommend Shahrzad. She is patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in her student’s success! You can feel how much she cares! I feel very grateful to have found her!

Perfect! I absolutely love learning Farsi with Shahrzad. She is an amazing teacher who truly takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and makes sure all of my questions are answered. Her patience and encouragement make the learning process feel comfortable and approachable, and she has a way of making even challenging concepts feel fun and engaging. I always look forward to our lessons and feel more confident after each one. I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone wanting to learn Farsi in an enjoyable and supportive way.

Perfect! Outstanding Farsi Teacher, Highly Recommend

Learning Farsi with Shahrzad has been an amazing experience. She is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about teaching. Her lessons are well-structured but never boring, she explains grammar clearly, introduces vocabulary in a practical way, and always makes sure I truly understand before moving on.

What I appreciate most is how she adapts her teaching style to my level and learning pace. She mixes speaking, listening, reading, and cultural context, which makes the language feel alive and meaningful rather than memorized. She also corrects mistakes gently and clearly, which has helped me gain confidence when speaking.

Thanks to Shahrzad, I’ve made real progress in a short amount of time and actually enjoy learning Farsi. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a supportive, professional, and effective Farsi teacher, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to improve fluency.

Perfect! Great first lesson focused on evaluating where we should start future lessons. Definitely learned a few useful things about colloquial vs formal Farsi, and intricacies of a few verbs.

Perfect! I've been taking Farsi lessons with Shahrzad and she truly is the best! She is incredibly patient, smart, and kind, always creating a comfortable learning environment. I appreciate how professional she is while still making the lessons enjoyable and engaging. What stands out most is her she tailors each session to focus on what I want to improve, whether it's conversation or grammar. She helps me incorporate the new vocabulary I learn in each session into everyday conversations, making it easier for me to speak Farsi with others. I highly recommend her!!
