I love children and take a great deal of pleasure in instructing them. I am at my happiest when I see a deep desire of learning in my students’ eyes. I do my best to open the door to the world for them and teach them to not set limits on what they can do.

I am constantly working to improve my teaching and to support my students so that they broaden their horizons in learning.

The students have different backgrounds and abilities, and most of them are from economically disadvantaged families. Many of their parents have left Georgia to go to work abroad to earn a living. I feel responsible to give them extra classes, and to support them to satisfy their interests and improve their skills - to allow them to reach their full potential and shape their lives.

I strive to ensure that my students are able to cope with everyday life. Mastering the English language can open a student’s mind to allow them to exchange ideas, opinions, facts and cultural views with people from other countries.
