      Certified, passionate and polite tutor with 4 years of experience I prefer using gestures and other communicative approaches that involve students to learn the language more accurately. I will help you with reading, writing, speaking, pronunciation, vocabulary, and sentence structure, and remove all grammatical errors.

      Why choose Shanza S.
      "I’ve been tutoring with Shanza to improve my conversational Urdu skills for the past couple weeks. I am from Toronto Canada and wanted to work with an understanding tutor to help improve my speaking skills. In every lesson Shanza is very friendly and welcoming and makes me feel really comfortable. Learning to speak any language is quite uncomfortable but she has made this very easy. After meeting her for the first time, I knew I was going to schedule more lessons with her as she is a very sweet and gentle teacher. She is very clear, patient and offers a lot of opportunities for me to learn and doesn’t make me feel judged. Learning with Shanza feels like I’m talking to a friend. I recommend her to anyone looking to learn Urdu no matter where you are from. "

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I skill up on Urdu in Iowa City, IA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using apps, you have a few key options for learning Urdu interactively in Iowa City, IA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, check centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your second possibility can be local commercial language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can opt for a private Urdu tutor in Iowa City, IA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Iowa City, IA and online Urdu tutors.

    🎟 Is it cheap to learn Urdu and what do Urdu tutors charge?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Urdu course cost as 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the overall charge for fifty or so lesson hours each semester. Language centers and private Urdu tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly Urdu tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 7 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, availability and student demand. Customer review average for Urdu lessons on Preply is 4.89 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Urdu language skill level to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and testing, so research all such requirements in advance. With personal Urdu tutors you can find out in advance for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Urdu so challenging and are there ways to learn it in a better way?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Urdu. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Urdu fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand many words, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Urdu. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Urdu tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Urdu?

    Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Urdu will necessitate at least 600 hours of practice. The amount of time can differ quite a bit depending on your existing level of Urdu or knowledge of other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch television, write using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Urdu out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Urdu classes online.

    🤳 Can I choose my own Urdu teacher?

    In language learning academies, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of tested Urdu tutors with detailed profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?

    Colleges usually offer classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools as a rule give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
