I have been teaching for around 20 years but completed my UK qualification in 2016 (a PGCE (MFL French and Spanish) with Liverpool John Moore University though I had previously achieved QTLS as an EAL teacher in 2012. I then spent a few months teaching part time via an agency at Albany Science College in Chorley before moving to Normandy for six months to gain practical experience of life in France. I came to the Isle of Man in 2018 and started teaching here at a leading independent school.

I hold both QTS and QTLS. I have around 20 years’ experience in teaching Russian, French and English (EAL/ESOL) - both in my native Georgia and in the UK. I first qualified as a languages teacher in my home country Tskhinval, South Ossetia in 1998 (this qualification has been verified by NARIC as equivalent to UK degree standard).

I am able to offer outstanding lessons in French, Spanish, Russian and English (EAL).
