Advanced Persian I · Middle Eastern, South Asian, And African Studies
Some grammar, but primarily new vocabulary.
Advanced Persian - learning technical and advanced vocabulary, practice in reading poems and news headlines, speaking and presenting, writing papers, etc.
Placement exams and deeper evaluations into students' levels of understanding should be mandatory prior to the start of the course since there is no distinction between regular and heritage learners.
Debating skills in farsi, expanded writing knowledge and more professional vocabulary
A lot more advanced grammar and Persian word morphology.
The course's writing assignments were fair and improved my writing skills.
Great if you're a native speaker, or at least have a firm grasp on the language. If you're not a native speaker, you might struggle. 1 Columbia University: Arts & Sciences Fall 2023 Course: MDESGU4710_001_2023_3-ADVANCEDPERSIANI : MDESGU4710_001_2023_3 - ADVANCED PERSIAN I Instructor: Saeed Honarmand
