3 weeks 2022 Old Persian Online School

Old Persian online training by ASPIRANTUM was one of its kind programs. After attending it, I am now easily able to read Royal Achaemenid Inscriptions & several Old Persian texts. Professor Nshan is a wonderful teacher, his teaching method is also great. One newspaper in Mumbai got my story published in several cities across India. Inspired by ASPIRANTUM & Prof. Nshan, I am now studying Avestan Language in India for more research. 

Thanks once again to the ASPIRANTUM Team for this treasure of knowledge. Looking forward to more exciting Ancient Language training programs.

“I would recommend anyone interested in the world of Achaemenid Persia to take an Old Persian class with Nshan. He was knowledgeable as an instructor and friendly as a colleague/friend. He also has many good stories to share, so the redundant "thatiy Darayavahush xshayathiya xshayathiyanam" would not be too unbearable:).”
