The courses are basic level and include normal daily conversations of local people. Through these practices, we can find our mutual words, idioms, traditions, hobbies, …  and learn Farsi by having fun.

There is this misunderstanding that Iranian are Arab and speak Arabic, which is not correct. Although we have a similar alphabet but the languages and races are different. Join us to learn and practice Farsi in the center of this language and later you can enjoy poems of Rumi, Hafez, Sa’adi, … by reading them in Farsi.
