Payvand Cultural Art Center 2017

Teachers and Counsellors

Regisration

The Iranian Federated Women’s Club/Payvand in partnership with the International Performing Art Center, has prepared very special programs such as Summer Camp Payvand 2017, After school, Weekend school  and Winter Camp Payvand.

The style of teaching is based on the phonic system that was adopted from the British System and special method of using “Ostad Behzad” art that was used at former Vijeh Private Elementary School in Tehran during the 1950s -70s.

It is interactive and is the combination of how our Iranian ancestors learned to read and write via Sound, Art and Music with American and Scandinavian systems

Our counsellors can’t wait to meet new campers as we dive into 5 days of fun Persian classes, music, dance, art, science, theater, and games. We want our campers to enjoy performing and building new friendships.
