First notebook entry: Introducing myself I'm originally from Afghanistan but have been raised in the States for most of my life. Even though my native language is Farsi I have difficulty reading and writing. I would consider myself to be a beginner in Farsi, I can speak it and read to some extend but have difficulty writing. Growing up in my community resources were not available to advance my skills in this language and my parents never got a chance to teach me. I'm here to find someone who can teach me Farsi.
