Testimonial by Bridget Drager

I highly enjoyed studying intermediate Persian at Aspirantum in Yerevan. The small classes were very fast-paced and covered topics such as media and literature. In class, we were able to practice listening, reading, comprehension, and speaking each day, which was hugely helpful in improving my skills. At the end of the program I feel I learned a lot of Persian and am more confident in my speaking, as well as having the stepping stones and knowledge to continue self studying and improving. I definitely recommend this course to anyone hoping to improve their language skills, and hope for myself to return in the future. In addition to the courses lots of fun cultural activities were coordinated and it was a great way to get to know the other students as well as learn about Armenia and its important heritage sites. Overall the program was very rewarding and it was a bonus to be learning in the beautiful city of Yerevan.
