I worked in the capital of Georgia at one of the most famous companies as an assistant to the CEO.
I achieved this position with my own effort after two years of graduation from university.
I sent my CV, I was at the first interview with the HR manager. Next was also the second interview with my direct manager.
After the trial period, they hired me, but…
(more…)I received a present for New Year in advance.
As an English teacher, I live constantly in Agara.
training and courses for professional development are not conducted here.
From this situation, I found one choice – reading world-acknowledged materials and taking them in a practice.
(more…)I want to tell you about one of my best pupils and why I left disappointed because of myself.
Last year her mother messaged me that she wanted sixth graders bringing on English classes.
Unfortunately, I had already finished admissions and in the middle of the season, I could not add any more students.
Her final message was that for the next year, she would contact me again.
(more…)After missing the lesson, I contacted one of my student’s mothers.
She missed my call because she worked in the field for food.
I left a message. Why Dato did not attend English, I was interested.
The social situation in the rural district is hard, but harder was to know precise facts.

Please tell me about your students and the learning process, which method do you use?
I conduct group lessons. Two-thirds of the time is for students’ involvement – it could be dialogs, games, or another activity.
I choose complex teaching, which covers all components of foreign language fluency: reading, speaking, listening, playing, etc.

How did your parents bring you up, what was exemplary for you?
A close environment has great importance for the development of a person. Despite the financial difficulties, my family did their best for me to have all kinds of study literature.
(more…)I saw one of my students and my eyes filled with tears
The girl enrolled in English and no longer appeared after the introductory meeting. I could not even get in touch and I thought she had changed her mind about studying.
I rested the children on Independence Day, but I heard a sudden call.
(more…)Some students are wary and scared when they start studying. The reason is the negative experience in school when the teacher says harsh words and writes two in a journal.
I work separately to correct this mood. I explain to the children that there are friends here and talking is not punished. Even if they answer me wrong, I will move on to another student with a question.
(more…)I teach the English language for 30 GEL in a month (less than $10), which is two or three times less compared to Shida Kartli’s prices.
Why so cheap?
My goal is to make learning English available to the wider masses.
Those who are thirsty for education, but with a small family income can not afford 60 GEL.
The main motivator in this process is not money.
(more…)I visited the “American Corner” in Khashuri
Director Keti Metreveli and her assistant Mavra Gelashvili met me very friendly.
We talked about cooperation opportunities.
Periodically I will bring English literature, CDs, and board games to Agara that my students will enjoy.
