Bibliography of Teaching Persian to Non-Natives

The main goal of the project is to prepare a complete list of sources in the area of teaching Persian to non-natives. Such a bibliographic list would be useful for learners, instructors, researchers and all those interested in this field. The list includes materials for teaching Persian (such as books, films, video/audio tapes and CDs), as well as research works (such as dissertations, papers, etc.) on teaching Persian to non-natives. Bibliographical information and an abstract for each source is presented both in Persian and English, though the textbook itself might have been originally written in German, French, Russian, Kazakh, Italian, Chinese, etc.
