What it actually is

Elyar, a Tabriz-born teacher based in Milan, has built an unusually well-organised free site around spoken Persian: themed vocabulary guides running to thousands of words, grammar and script explanations, reading practice, and blunt reviews of the other Farsi resources on the market. The reference material is free; one-to-one lessons are the paid side, with a free 25-minute first session. It is one person's opinionated project rather than an institution, and it is newer than the classics, so cross-check anything surprising.
