I studied Farsi at the local Iranian Cultural Centre; however, my Farsi is still quite inadequate. In particular, I want help with Faris songs and chat/conversation. Can you help? E-mail works best for me because of the problem with time differences and the fact that I use a dial-up modem: cable is still rare here, and so slow!

I speak Farsi but not the kind from Iran, sorry! I could probably understand it, but my dialect is a bit different.
