The main goal of the project "Teach and Learn with Georgia" is to improve English language proficiency through recruiting native English speakers who will be willing to help Georgian schoolchildren learn the English language in public schools in Georgia. As they strive towards globalization and acknowledge the advantages of new technology, the Georgian government considers human interaction and people-to-people communication as irreplaceable and have far more tangible or intangible benefits than any other means of communication. This is why "Teach and Learn with Georgia" is so important for a small country like Georgia that has exceptional customs and traditions and is willing to share them with the rest of the world.

Volunteer teachers will stay in Georgia for at least one year and experience once in a lifetime opportunities, such as getting familiarized with amazing Georgian customs and traditions by living with local families, experiencing unique Georgian folklore and cuisine by socializing with local communities, and learning the Georgian language, one of the 14 existing alphabets in the world, should they wish to do so.

The exchange of information, experiences and culture will create important ties between Georgians and other peopls from different parts of the world. This initiative will significantly improve foreign language proficiency in Georgia and give volunteer teachers advantageous benefits for their future careers.
