Omid
Persian for beginners, intermediate, and advanced students with a native speaker فارسیآیا شما به زبان فارسی علاقه دارید؟
Have you ever thought about practicing your Persian with a native speaker living in the Netherlands?
I'm Omid, an artist, and architect living in Rotterdam, from Tehran, Iran. I grew up as a native Farsi-speaking person, I studied architecture at a university in Tehran, and then I moved to the Netherlands when I was 24 years old. So I can say I still remember a lot of my Persian skills! With all the other things that I'm doing right now, I love to teach and be involved with teaching the Persian language! To me, Persian is beautiful not only because it is my mother tongue but also because of its poetic tone and expressive nature. Are you ready to be more romantic? :)

✨French teacher - Pass the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Individual or group session. ✨Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018.
I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress.
Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.
Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
