Teachers’ knowledge of teaching methods and techniques is of utmost importance since they have to be aware of teaching techniques and evaluation of the program procedure. The purpose of the present research is to analyze the Iranian teachers’ degree of familiarity and knowledge regarding new teaching methods and techniques. The participants in the present study included all teachers at the Teaching Persian Language to Non-Persians (TPLNP) center at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad. Data collection was made through class observations for all 22 classes at TPLNP and interviews were held with 27 teachers. All observed classes included teaching the four main skills including listening, reading, speaking and writing. The classroom observation results showed that the most common teaching methods used at the TPLNP center in descending order were as follow: communicative, audio-lingualism, direct, total physical response, desuggestopedia, and grammar-translation method. Through applying Pearson Product Moment Correlation to the collected data, a positive relationship was found between the selected teaching method and the educational background of the teacher; a negative relationship was also found between the teaching method and teacher’s teaching experience. No significant relationship was found between the teaching method and both the age and field of study of the teacher.
