I bring more than 20 years of experience teaching Persian (Farsi) language, literature, and history at the high school level in Iran. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the University of Tehran, an Associate Degree in Education and Teaching, and pursued graduate coursework at the University of Minnesota.
Since moving to the United States nearly 30 years ago, I have continued my lifelong commitment to education and cross-cultural communication. I have worked both as a public high school educator and as a professional interpreter in medical, legal, and educational settings. Whether helping patients communicate with healthcare providers, assisting individuals through legal proceedings, or supporting families in navigating the educational system, I have dedicated my career to building understanding across languages and cultures.
Teaching is more than a profession for me; it is a passion. I believe that learning Persian is not simply about acquiring a new language, but about discovering the rich history, literature, traditions, and values of one of the world's oldest civilizations. I am passionate about sharing the beauty of Persian language and culture with students of all ages and backgrounds, and I strive to create an engaging, supportive learning environment that inspires curiosity, confidence, and a lasting appreciation for Persian heritage.
My greatest reward as an educator is helping students develop both linguistic skills and a meaningful connection to Persian culture. I look forward to guiding learners on that journey and sharing the richness of a heritage that has inspired poets, scholars, artists, and thinkers for centuries.
