This is what one of her students wrote to us about her teaching style: “I lose track of time in the class as we are always engaged in doing some fun activity.” For any questions regarding the Persian courses and instructional materials, please email Maryam at

Speak Bilingual is a U.S.-based company in Virginia. We are a team of experienced native speaker instructors in almost all major world languages. Our instructors have years of experience in second and foreign language teaching, all within the context of universities and language institutes. We believe that successful language learning cannot be limited only to textbooks, drills and grammar exercises but it relies heavily on the skills of trained and experienced instructors who have related educational backgrounds and solid experience in teaching foreign languages.

Here at "Speak Bilingual Language Institute", you will not only learn the target language first hand, but also you will become familiar with all necessary cultural references in highly interactive classes. This will ultimately reinforce your language learning capabilities as you work on all four language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Emphasis will of course be different based on your language needs.

On the other hand, while it is definitely an advantage to learn a new language with the help of a native speaker, it is not enough. Professional language instructors need to be familiar with the latest methodology in teaching languages. Our experienced native speaker instructors hold university degrees in applied linguistics, education and related fields with a solid background in teaching languages. We carefully select our faculty and attract the most qualified native speaker instructors across the United States.
