For Persian teachers

How it works

1. Make a class. Sign in with your email (we send you a code), then give the class a name, like Saturday beginners, and pick who it's for: ages 3 to 6, 7 to 12, or 13 and up. You can have up to 20 classes, with up to 60 students in each.
2. Send the link. Each class has its own link. It opens Alefba with the class code filled in, and students just type their first name. Or they open learnalefba.com, tap Join your class on the first screen and type the code. The Copy an invite message button writes the message to send home for you.
3. Assign lessons. Pick letters, word lessons, conversations or a whole level. Students see them at the top of their Lessons tab.
4. See who's practising. For each student: how many of the last 7 days they practised, their streak, how many lessons they've done, and how many of your assigned lessons are finished.
5. Open every level for the class (optional). With the school plan, everyone in the class gets all 16 levels for a year, so you can assign any lesson.

What your students practise

• The alphabet: all 32 letters, one at a time, with each letter's shapes, a word that uses it, and tracing practice.
• 252 everyday words in 16 levels: family, food, school, animals, colours, Nowruz and more, with sound for every word and an example sentence.
• Spoken and book Persian side by side: how people say a word at home (خونه, khune) and how books write it (خانه, khâne).
• Finglish as a support: words are also shown in English letters (like salâm) until students can read the script.
• 16 short stories, one for every level, made from its words. Students tap any underlined word to see what it means.
• A free Shab-e Yalda pack: 15 Yalda words (watermelon, pomegranate, nuts, candles, Hafez), a story about Yalda night at Grandma's house and a game. It's free for every student, with or without a plan, and you can assign it like any lesson.
• Pictures and games for young learners: pictures for the words, a memory game and a balloon game in each level, and a sticker for every level finished.
• Little mode, for ages 3 to 6: for children who can't read yet. They tap a big letter to hear it, see a picture word that starts with it, and trace it with a finger. Every letter traced earns a star. It opens on a simple menu (flashcards, picture games, letters) and has no computer voice: only the Persian words are heard. Pick “Little ones, 3 to 6” when you make the class and every student who joins gets it; families can also pick Little one on the first screen.
• Printable tracing sheets: pick the letters your class is learning and print a page for each, with dotted letters to trace, the letter's joined shapes, and a word with a picture. Open them from the Letters tab in the Library, from teacher mode, or straight from this link: learnalefba.com/#sheets.
• Practice conversations with friendly AI characters, at each student's level. Every family gets 3 free talks, and a school plan with talks gives each student 5 a month.
• Meanings in five languages: English, French, German, Swedish or Chinese.

Alefba works for children from 7 to 12, and for teens and adults, who get their own conversations. For a class of 3 to 6 year olds, pick “Little ones, 3 to 6” and your students get little mode. Every student in a class gets the mode you picked for it.

Privacy, for schools

• Students don't need an email address or an account to do the lessons or join a class.
• A class sees only the first name or nickname a student types when joining, and their progress: lessons done, days practised and streak. Nothing from the AI talks is ever shared with a class.
• On a child's device, a grown-up says yes before the child joins a class.
• Students can leave a class at any time, which deletes their progress from it straight away. Deleting a class deletes everything in it.
• Alefba has no ads and no tracking cookies. Visits are counted with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and collects nothing that identifies a student. The app also keeps daily totals, such as how many lessons were finished, with nothing about who anyone is.

The page for parents has the full details, including how the AI talks work and are kept safe.

What does it cost?

Teacher mode is free, and so are the alphabet and the first 3 levels for every student.

With either school plan, families don't need their own plan for the lessons. With talks, students just join with the class code: nobody signs in. Before buying it, you tick a box to say you've told the families about Alefba, and for students under 13, that you're agreeing for the school (or for their parents, in a private class). There's a ready-made note to send to families. A class that has the school plan already can add talks for the difference in price. You get both from your class in teacher mode, and you can add another year near the end.

Teachers can ask us for a free code to try everything themselves.
