History
Our journey began in 1991 with the establishment of centers in Toronto, Vancouver, and Houston. By 1995, we proudly expanded to Dallas, London, Dusseldorf, and Nice. Building on this international success, we grew further, opening centers in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Aarhus, Copenhagen, Barcelona, and Rome. In 2020, we embraced the digital age by launching online classes, making Farsi education accessible to learners worldwide. Most recently, in 2024, we continued our growth with new centers in Sacramento, Denver, and Milwaukee, reaffirming our dedication to providing high-quality Farsi education both locally and globally. At MTO International Persian School, we are committed to preserving and sharing the Persian language and culture with communities across the globe.
