  • سلام و عرض ادب خدمت جناب آقای تیموری گرامی.

    خیلی خوشحالم می بینم که پسرهای شما توانستند در مدت زمان کوتاهی، پیشرفت قابل توجهی در آموزش زبان فارسی به ویژه خواندن و نوشتن حروف الفبا به دست آورند.

    یکی از دلایل این پیشرفت تحصیلی، نظارت خود شما قبل و بعد از هر کلاس آنلاین فارسی بود که جای قدردانی و تشکر دارد. از سوی دیگر، پسران شما با کنجکاوی و دقت بالا، پیش از هر کلاس فارسی، همه درسهای مشخص شده را می خواندند و ویدیوهای داخل درسها را می دیدند. همچنین، درباره هر درس فارسی به ویژه داستانها و قصه های فارسی، کامنت می گذاشتند. به همین دلیل هم توانستند در مدت حدودا 3 ماه، خواندن و نوشتن فارسی را به خوبی بیاموزند.

    in reply to: Grammar: is not until #119279

    Thanks Armaghan for asking us this question.

    The term, is not until, is used to place some emphasis on the time of an action or event. So, the sentence “The deadline of the homework is not until next week” is intended to state that something does not happen before a certain point in time (i.e., next week) or before something else has happened. In this case, the deadline of the homework does not happen before next week.

    The phrase “is not until” is considered positive because it means that there is still enough time or, in fact, plenty of time to complete the homework and carry it out. In other words, you don’t need to be so concerned about the deadline.

    in reply to: Green Book Movie Review & Analysis in Film Criticism #118891

    Unlike The Green Mile which I didn’t like very much, I found Green Book interesting and educational. This comparison is made because I’m a passionate advocate of movies based on true stories. Green Book depicted that shockingly even in the Unites States, racism was being practiced in the 1960s. At the time of watching the film, I noticed how greatly Martin Luther King Jr. has influenced the American culture.

    In addition, Green Book portrayed the clash of opinions between two distinct social classes or castes and how these two people accepted to be positively affected by each other. As a result of this, it was difficult for me to distinguish between the main character or protagonist and the supporting actor.

    in reply to: Best English Quote on Taking Action by Tony Robbins #118844

    In continuation of this quote from Tony Robbins, I should add that we are not meant to begin or take any random journey. Life is too short and it should be well-lived. We’re living in an era of specialism as a opposed to generalism. In other words, we cannot be a jack of all trades and master of none. By that, I mean we need to mindfully select the best and most appropriate journey or even create it and start from scratch.

    On the other hand, if a vital journey appears so daunting or formidable, it should be dealt with step by step with this mindset that the first step is actually the most difficult one.

    in reply to: English Quote on Life Experiences by Abraham Lincoln #118609

    This quote by Abraham Lincoln is extremely meaningful. It compares and contrasts the quality and quantity of life, and gives more credit to the former. I believe maintaining a healthy lifestyle on the ground of correct attitudes in life can certainly improve the quality of life, and if the quality of life is taken into account, its quantity will also be taken care of automatically.

    in reply to: The Croods Movie Review in Film Criticism Course Forum #118600

    For nearly a decade, I’ve always wanted to critique The Croods produced back in 2013. The intended message is so profound and useful. I found some lessons and messages that are like great quotes to me. For example, “follow the light”, “change the rules that keep you in the cave / dark”, and some others.

    We are taught that we should tackle our irrational fears or phobias that block our progress or happiness in life. Also as Eep put it, surviving and living are not interchangeable as some people who are overwhelmed by fear simply try not to die, while they are fooled that they are alive.

    In addition, curiosity is a valuable trait that should be practiced, and irrational fear is its enemy. For this reason, everything new is NOT necessarily bad as misunderstood by Eep’s father. His conservative personality made him repeat the same story over and over again, spoiling the household’s mood every night.

    12 Angry Men had been in my films collection for a long time, and I was not tempted to watch it. When I watched it for the first time over the last week, I began to appreciate the wisdom and justice sensitivity the film was trying to instill in the viewer. As mentioned in the film, “prejudice obscures the truth” and for this reason, the protagonist was doing his best to combat against injustice.

    The main character was so intuitive and smart and was able to modestly convince the other 11 jury members, especially the antagonist, to change their mind about the defendant. The protagonist refused to take it for granted that the convict was guilty simply by relying on insufficient evidence.

    Initially, the antagonist and the majority of the jury members were merely offering or using sophistry to obfuscate the truth, fundamentally the antagonist, who was a sadist. However, through critical thinking and inductive reasoning, every piece of evidence against the accused person was successfully falsified.

    in reply to: English Quote on Perception by Helen Keller #118253

    I cannot completely agree on this viewpoint. First of all, this quote is by Helen Keller, an extraordinary person who lost her sight and hearing abilities. Nevertheless, even she wished she could have “Three Days to See“, as the title of one of her seminal articles. I can never ignore the beauty of sunrise on top of a mountain or disregard dulcet chirpings of birds or even crickets at night. I believe our mind should be trained to be tuned in to and acknowledge these natural beauties, and Helen Keller’s mind was so talented from this point of view.

    You’re right, Soroosh. This quote aims to instill in us that we need to see through the future and predict it to some extent.

    This quote by Robert Louis Stevenson wants to convey this message to us that we shall not be fooled or overjoyed by temporary achievements. This is a blatant or flagrant mistake that many people, especially businessmen and entrepreneurs, make simply because they don’t try to predict the future or reconsider and update their long-term goals or plans. The result might be bankruptcy or a dramatic collapse. This methodology is on the basis of the cumulative effect principle telling us that she should get better and better over time.

    in reply to: The Green Mile Movie Review in Film Criticism Course #118206

    When I watched The Green Mile over 2 decades ago, I was fascinated by the story. However, this genre of movies, i.e. fantasy mixed with drama, cannot excite me anymore. These days, I prefer either thoroughly fantasy or purely drama-driven movies. I guess the director, Frank Darabont, was trying to make a duplicate of his former masterpiece, Shawshank Redemption, with pretty similar plot in the same setting, i.e. prison, and the same writer, Stephen King.

    Although the characters, even the villains, were playing their parts extraordinarily, The Green Mile failed to impress me sufficiently. This is mostly because of the story, which is too staged. Every character is like a piece of the puzzle perfectly fitting in to the adjacent one. This is not something you expect to see in real life. The end part of the movie was the worst when the protagonist acted by Tom Hanks and even the little mouse are sentenced to immortality as a punishment. What was the mouse’s fault? To me, the film was too long (over 3 hours) and rather boring, and I had to fast-forward many scenes.

    I could also find a contradiction in the plot where Paul explained to the old lady by the end of the film that he had been cursed to immortality for doing nothing wrong. Join Coffey himself had no complaint about his conviction and was pleased to depart this world. My logic tells me that John could never curse Paul, let alone the little mouse simply by holding Paul’s hands or the entire mouse for a moment.

    in reply to: Who Moved My Cheese Summary & Review in Film Criticism #118201

    Who Moved My Cheese is one of the best-selling books in the realm of self-improvement and personal growth because the writer, Dr. Spencer Johnson, has wisely targeted some of the most problematic issues of people in modern times, which are depression, leading a sedentary lifestyle, and over-complication of simple matters.

    In my idea, these days, the majority of people are chiefly oriented toward the product of life represented as cheese in this short story, while they disregard or overlook the lengthy process of life, which is pursuing the cheese. As a matter of fact, success in life is not and cannot be an outcome or end-result of anything. Success and happiness lie in an endless discovery of getting better and better and trying to enjoy the prolonged process.

    Tom Hanks’ role in Forrest Gump is so influential and positive that it has affected his following films as well, such as Cast Away. While watching Cast Away, I was not sure whether he was Chuck or Forrest Gump. I should admit that the beginning of the film was somewhat boring to me. Therefore, the first time I watched it, I thought I would be bored with that. Nevertheless, my expectations did not come true, and I began to like it more and more.

    Forrest Gump is a man with low IQ but high EQ, optimism, and determination. He was mistreated by society and the people around him, but he did not take any offense. He literally made the impossible possible by becoming a successful entrepreneur, a romantic beau and husband with authentic and real emotions, and a caring father. I was shocked when I listened to his first reaction to becoming a father as being concerned about his son’s IQ.

    He was the only survivor of the hardships of life in comparison to his colleagues and bosses simply because he had a winning mindset. Running for a person with physical disabilities like Forrest Gump is like playing a musical instrument for a person with hearing loss like Beethoven, and this is a perfect example of determination and resolution. Running in this movie is a symbol of taking action and moving forward, and sometimes without so much overthinking. From this point of view, I can compare Forrest Gump with the 2 active mice in Who Moved My Cheese?

    از اینکه نظر خیلی خوب و مفیدت را به ما گفتی، خیلی ممنون هستیم. بله، حتما از این به بعد، به شما بیشتر وقت می دهیم تا واژه ها و کلمه های سخت را خودتون بخوانید. شما به همراه برادر بزرگترتون، خیلی خوب و زود توانستید با حروف الفبای فارسی آشنا بشید. به شما تبریک می گم! روخوانی متون فارسی برای شما خیلی آسان و روان شده. دلیل آن هم این است که قبل و بعد از کلاس آنلاین فارسی، شما ویدیوهای داخل درسها در سایت ما را می بینید و با آمادگی بیشتر در کلاس فارسی حاضر می شوید.

    خیلی خوشحالم به خاطر نظر و بازخورد خوبی که از یادگیری حروف الفبا برای کودکان در مدرسه فارسی ما داشتید. شما در مدت کوتاهی، یعنی کمتر از دو ماه، با همه حروف الفبای فارسی آشنا شدید. همانطوری که گفتید، از حروف، کلمه ها و جمله های ساده شروع کردیم و در این مدت کوتاه، توانستید پیشرفت خیلی خوبی داشته باشید. الان دیگه می تونیم داستانهای فارسی در سایت ما را بخونیم و از آنها لذت ببریم.
