Sharing the Georgian Language and Culture with the World

The Georgian Institute is a cultural and educational initiative devoted to promoting the Georgian language and the heritage of Georgia around the world. Founded on the belief that language is the key to understanding identity, history, and human connection, the Georgian Institute offers high-quality resources for free to all who wish to master Georgian or reconnect with their cultural roots.

At the core of the Institute is a passionate team of Georgian language educators and content creators who combine academic rigor with real-life teaching experience and a genuine love for the Georgian linguistic tradition.

We are proud to offer a carefully structured Georgian Language Master Course that integrates Grammar, Vocabulary, Audio Podcasts, Exercises, and Cultural insights. This course is the fruit of years of dedication and feedback from learners globally. It reflects not only our educational method but also our mission to present Georgian as a vibrant, evolving language. Our aim is to guide you with clarity and confidence through its richness—step by step—making your learning journey both enjoyable and inspiring.

Beyond language teaching, the Georgian Institute is dedicated to sharing Georgian culture in all its dimensions. Through our News section, we present to an international audience the latest in cultural life—spotlighting contemporary events, artists, musicians, noteworthy films and innovative businesses, as well as timeless traditions and festivals.

We are continuously expanding and enhancing our teaching materials, and we are sincerely grateful for the support and enthusiasm we receive from learners around the world. Your feedback helps guide our vision and sustain our growth.

MARIAM

Born in Batumi, she graduated from Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University with a degree in journalism and has since worked for several major Georgian news agencies. Specializing in cultural and social topics, Mariam is particularly passionate about Georgia’s rich history, and contemporary arts scene. In addition to her journalism career, she contributes to short stories inspired by Georgian legends and everyday life. She enjoys traditional Georgian dancing, cooking khachapuri (cheese-filled bread), and traveling around the country.

ZURAB

He studied at the Georgian Technical University and specialized in architecture. Passionate about preserving traditional Georgian architectural elements Zurab worked on multiple projects across the country, including residential and cultural buildings. He eventually became interested in sharing this cultural heritage with the world and joined the Georgian Institute. In his free time, he enjoys hiking in the Caucasus mountains, photography, and playing the panduri (a traditional Georgian string instrument). He is also a wine enthusiast and loves learning about different regional winemaking techniques.

EKA

Eka is our marketing manager and the quiet force behind the consistent look and feel of everything we create. She oversees strategy, storytelling, and visual identity, making sure that every piece of language and cultural content reflects Georgia with authenticity. She is a mother of two and married to her American born husband, whose journey into Georgian language and culture deeply inspired her. Watching him persevere while learning one of the world’s most unique languages reminded her how much patience and determination it takes. She wishes you the very best in your Georgian studies.

GIORGI

With years of experience teaching Georgian at university level, he has become a true reference point for his colleagues, someone people turn to for advice in teaching. Despite his academic reputation, Giorgi is really down to earth. He loves spending his evenings watching football, especially the UK Premier League. Match days are serious business in his house! He is a proud father of two and takes special joy in teaching them English while nurturing their connection to their native Georgian.

NINO

Nino was raised in the mountains in Svaneti. She remembers the years when many relatives and friends left in search of better opportunities. Those departures shaped her. While others went abroad, she chose to stay, holding on to language and culture. She studied languages and eventually mastered five of them. For Nino, teaching Georgian is not just about grammar or vocabulary. It is about helping people reconnect with their roots and feel that sense of belonging again. In her free time, she seeks out the lesser known corners of Georgia and likes traveling around Europe.

DAVIT

Davit is the careful eye behind our Georgian language materials. He proofreads texts, supervises content, and makes sure every sentence feels natural and correct. He genuinely loves teaching people about Georgia and takes pride in sharing its language with learners around the world. Davit often says he feels fortunate to live in an inclusive and liberal society where anyone can find their place in vibrant cities like Tbilisi or Batumi. Outside of work, you will find him watching football with friends. He is a loyal supporter of the Georgian national soccer team and rarely misses a match.
