Teacher: Banafsheh Gholami

Hi, my name is Banafsheh Gholami, and I have been with GSSF since 2020. I was born in Iran and moved to Germany at a young age, where I grew up and lived for 29 years. I studied business administration and built a successful career as a district manager for Bulgari. After getting married, I relocated to California 10 years ago, where my life took a different direction. I briefly worked in management but now dedicate myself full-time to teaching at an elementary school. I’ve embraced my passion for teaching the German language and culture, especially through my work at the German school. As a dedicated mother, I’m also committed to teaching my 7-year-old daughter German, English, and Farsi, helping her connect with our rich and diverse cultural heritage.
