Brief Biography of Nino Tsereteli
I am a dedicated and passionate educator from Georgia, with over 23 years of experience as an English Language Mentor Teacher. My journey in education began with a Master’s degree in English Language Philology from the Institute of Foreign Languages in Tbilisi. Since then, I've been committed to bringing the classroom to life with real-world examples and innovative technology, creating a supportive learning environment tailored to students' needs.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including teacher trainer and curriculum development expert. I have worked extensively with the Peace Corps in Georgia, delivering training sessions that incorporated Georgia-specific information, aligned with the national curriculum, and served as an English Language Teacher Trainer at the Teacher Professional Development Centre and the British Council Georgia.
Currently, I am engaged with the Ministry of Education and Science as a Curriculum Development and Implementation Expert, where I advise foreign language teachers and facilitate curriculum development processes. My volunteer work as an Online Teacher Community Facilitator with the British Council Georgia highlights my commitment to supporting English language teachers and sharing effective teaching strategies.
Upon returning to Georgia, I plan to implement the insights and methodologies gained during my time as a JEEM Scholar. My goal is to integrate life skills education into the curriculum, focusing on fostering social-emotional learning, critical thinking, and resilience among students. I also aim to strengthen partnerships between schools, parents, and the community, promoting a collaborative approach to education. By embracing diversity and inclusivity, I will work to ensure equitable access to education for all students, adapting teaching methods to meet diverse learning needs.
My passion for education and my commitment to making a meaningful impact in students' lives drive my continuous pursuit of excellence in teaching.
