Outside of Afghanistan, when children attend kindergarten or school, they begin to learn new terms in the local language, creating a disconnect when they return home as they struggle to relate their experiences to their parents. This challenge is faced even by parents who have not completed their education in Afghanistan. As a result, in Afghan families living abroad, a generation grows up unable to engage in in-depth conversations with their parents in their native language beyond basic topics like food and greetings. This lack of communication leaves these children to navigate their emotions and experiences on their own, unable to share their joys or sorrows with their parents. The ongoing waves of migration have scattered families across the globe, with some having siblings in different countries. As a result, their children speak multiple languages, requiring parents to act as translators during family gatherings to facilitate communication with extended family members. The richness and complexity of these relationships highlight the challenges and barriers faced by families living far from their homeland.
Considering various considerations, Gahwara has opted to establish an online school utilizing Google Classroom to offer instruction in Persian, Pashto, and Uzbek languages across five classes.
- It has been ensured that our instructors possess proficiency in a language other than Persian that is known to your children.
- Following enrollment, an online assessment will be conducted with your child to determine the appropriate class placement.
- Each classroom is structured to accommodate 15 students, with each lesson spanning a duration of 45 minutes.
- Study materials will be dispatched monthly to your child, with homework assignments regularly assigned weekly.
- Should your child require guidance, they have the option to reach out to their instructor via email throughout the week to seek assistance.
Gahwara online school has five classes:
- Class A: Designed for children unfamiliar with the Persian language due to lack of exposure at home.
- Class B: Tailored for children who conversely mix Persian with another language at home, limiting their ability to communicate in Persian beyond essential interactions.
- Class C: Intended for children and teenagers who grasp Persian comprehension but require further development in reading and writing skills.
- Class D: Geared towards children and teenagers proficient in Persian reading and writing, seeking to enhance their proficiency and deepen their understanding of the language.
- Class E: Catering to young adults and parents who have not completed their education in Afghanistan and are eager to re-engage in Persian language reading activities.
