The Challenge of Building Joy of Persian

Each course demands extensive hours of research, meticulous lesson planning, audio and video production, engaging exercises, and careful attention to detail to deliver the highest quality learning experience. At the same time, maintaining a website that provides a seamless, user-friendly experience also requires ongoing updates, technical support, and resources.

This brings us to the chicken and egg problem that many independent educational platforms face: to grow our website, attract more learners, and build a vibrant community, we need to consistently create and offer high-quality content. However, producing this content demands significant time and financial investment. Without adequate resources, it becomes increasingly difficult to develop new materials or improve the platform. But without new, engaging content, it’s challenging to grow our audience and bring in the support we need.

In short, we need resources to grow, but we also need growth to generate those resources—a classic “chicken and egg” situation. Your donations help us break this cycle. By supporting Joy of Persian, you’re enabling us to dedicate the necessary time and effort to create more comprehensive courses, engaging blog posts, and high-quality videos that make Persian language and culture accessible to all. With your help, we can build a larger, more sustainable community of learners and continue expanding our offerings to reach even more people.
