Tinatin Bakhtadze

Today was a great day! A conversation about the holidays, traveling, fishing--all Georgian! I feel progress today, which was great. Part of what made it good was preparing ahead of time with a text that Tinatin gave me, which included questions to answer in Georgian. That immersive approach helps me a lot.

Today we worked through a text that had a lot of similar vocabulary configured in different ways. It was a great way to work through and practice vocabulary because once you encountered a new word, you would see it in slightly different contexts a couple more times.

In today's lesson, Tinatin provided a short simple text that she had written, which was great for reading practice. It was fun to learn about people she knows, and the text was written in a way that was both authentic and manageable for a lower level student. This type of reading practice is hard to come by in Georgian and is very much appreciated!

Tinatin is the best! She’s a thorough teacher and I’ve made so much progress with her.

Tinatin loves to create short texts as a means to learn new vocabulary, reinforce old vocabulary, and address various grammar points. I have found these texts really helpful.

გაკვეთილი იყო საინტერესო და ეფექტური, დიდი მადლობა!
