Who sits the other side of the table

The academy is a teaching room, not a brokerage. Tutors mark packs, host circles, and hold desks. They do not manage accounts or publish calls.

Nino Beridze

Lead classroom tutor, volume studies

Nino runs the evening intensive and the archive of printed profiles. She trained as a teacher before turning to market structure study and still marks every class pack by hand the morning of the session.

Giorgi Kapanadze

Reading-circle facilitator

Giorgi keeps the circle on language rather than labels. He also sits the Saturday critique rail and writes the short theme notes posted on the sessions board.

Tamar Gelashvili

Desk tutor and studio host

Tamar holds private desks and opens the studio on Saturdays. She is the person to write if you need a diagnostic hour before joining an intensive.

The rooms

We occupy a ground-floor suite on Eliava Highway in Tsnori: a front room for the circle, a longer table for the intensive, and a side studio with the critique rail. Street parking is informal; if you are coming from Kakheti villages, allow time for the last stretch into town.

Study is in English. Georgian is spoken at the desk if you need directions or to rearrange a sitting. The work itself stays on printed charts so language does not hide in platform menus.
