6 weeks 2018 Persian Language Summer School

I cannot recommend the Persian program enough.

Our instructor was extremely dedicated and designed a curriculum that catered to diverse interests and academic goals.  Supplementary readings complimented the textbook and reinforced the grammar and vocabulary we covered.

This program was very challenging, yet flexible enough for postgraduate students who are also doing summer research in Armenia.

The program director was extremely responsive, attentive and helpful in connecting me with local scholars for my research.

I would certainly come back for another summer.

“Studying Persian with ASPIRANTUM in Yerevan was a rich experience. I can highly recommend the programme, and would even consider coming again next summer, if advanced level courses in Persian are offered.”
