About Me
italki teacher since Dec 22, 2020
Interest topicWritingTravelReading
There is a well-known quote “As many languages you know, that many times you are a human
being”. In Georgian it sounds like this “რამდენი ენაც იცი იმდენი ადამიანი ხარ“.
Based on this saying I'm 2 and a half person. Georgian is my native language and of course I know it, English may not be as fluent as desired but quite enough to communicate with you, and a little bit of Russian.
My name is Mari and I am here to help you to learn Georgian.
My husband and I have a tourist company, and for years I had the opportunity to communicate with foreigners from different countries. I enjoy the communication and sharing parts of our culture with people from all around the world.
Me as a Teacher
A few years ago a friend of mine advised me to try my luck as a Georgian teacher. Nowadays I think that it was one of the most interesting challenges in my life, before that I had never been a teacher.
And my adventure started … On this journey, I met a lot of interesting people from different countries.
In my lessons, every time I find something new and I am growing as a teacher. Fantastic feeling of pride and joy becomes more and more present when I see how my students enjoy the process of forming themselves into a Georgian speaking person, finding a new way to express themselves and that always gives me extra motivation to go on.
My lessons & teaching style
There are three directions that I use:
I – Basic Georgian. Here you will learn the Georgian alphabet. Reading, writing, speaking, and also we will discuss Georgian grammar.
II – Essential phrases and dialogs. This direction is designed for tourists. I mean you will learn the words like this: hello - გამარჯობა, good bye - ნახვამდის, how are you - როგორ ხარ, nice to meet you...
III – Reading and speaking. It’s for students who already know Georgian and who want to improve their knowledge.
My classes are individual. So you can organize and tell me what you want, how you want to learn.
Finally, I would be truly glad if you join my class and we will start an amazing, unforgettable journey.

This was my first lesson with Mari and I enjoyed it very much. I didn't know it was possible to teach online someone who does not even know the alphabet, but she she definitely knows how and she made it so much fun!

This is a tear jerker but this is my last Lesson with Mari. We had a lot of great experiences with the georgian lesson. Plus she taught me different methods of learning that I will forever apply to other languages. I will forever miss you as my teacher, for you have made a big impact in my life. Till again!

Mari by far is the Best Georgian teacher that Ive met so far! Extremely helpful and patient and understanding which is helpful because learning a language can be daunting and overwhelming at times.
