Persian of Iran Today, Volume 1, Paperback/Anousha Shahsavari

Persian of Iran Today: Volume 1 is the first of two introductory Persian language textbooks by Anousha Shahsavari and Blake Atwood. Its innovative multimedia curriculum draws on the latest trends in language pedagogy and interweaves grammar- and vocabulary-building exercises with narrative elements in order to engage and develop students' abilities in Persian. Persian of Iran Today is a proficiency-based resource that gives equal weight to the development of reading, writing, listening, and speaking, and encourages students to use and create with the language from the very beginning. Persian of Iran Today is published by The University of Texas at Austin's Center for Middle Eastern Studies Publications program.
