About My Classes

Lessons Tailored to Each Student

Every lesson is designed around each learner’s individual needs, goals, and learning style. Through a range of assessment techniques, I identify linguistic strengths and areas for development to ensure that every student progresses confidently at their own pace.

Lessons are interactive and engaging, drawing on diverse resources - from stories and games to authentic cultural materials - all carefully selected according to each learner’s level and interests.

I offer one-to-one lessons both in person and online via Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, using visual materials, slideshow presentations, and interactive exercises to make every session dynamic and enjoyable.

GCSE and A-Level Persian

I also prepare students for GCSE Persian and A-Level Persian examinations. All of my GCSE students have so far achieved grade A★ (A-star) - a reflection of my structured, supportive teaching and focus on both language mastery and exam strategy.

If you or your child are preparing for GCSE or A-Level Persian, I will tailor each lesson to the examination board’s requirements while keeping the learning process enjoyable and motivating.

Where Are the Classes?

In-person lessons take place in Cambridge, not far from the city centre. Online lessons are available via Microsoft Teams or Google Meet for students based anywhere in the UK or abroad.

When Are the Classes?

Classes are available by appointment on weekdays and weekends. I aim to remain flexible and work around each student’s schedule. Please contact me to arrange a suitable time.

How Much Do I Charge?

Each lesson costs £40 per hour. You can also purchase a bundle of 10 or more hours and receive a discount - please enquire for details. Get in touch for more information or to arrange your first lesson.
