Good luck learning Georgian without this 🥲.
There simply are no high-quality resources that explain this complex and ancient language. Although it's really needed.
So we spent more than a year of research with high-quality resources in German, Russian, Georgian, and English.
And summarised it together with locals from Kutaisi, we created this course and are still adding content.
You're now looking at the result!

Some concepts are hard to learn without a good explanation. And good explanations are rare. For example, the verb system is what makes Georgian especially hard. We have 20+ shorts on Instagram teaching this for free. By buying this course, you get those, with extra long-form explanations.
Native Speaker Phrases
Lucas explains and recorded 6 sets of essential phrases, from the Bazari, to greetings, to expressing likes and dislikes. Memorise the phrases efficiently, including the correct pronunciation with our own Lingophant App.
Train your listening skills.
Have you noticed how understanding people speaking in Georgian is almost impossible. We prepared 9+ videos with double subtitles. This means you can read along in Georgian (with the Latin alphabet). With this you recognise the words people say, and practice listening to real people.

We’ve been living in Kutaisi since a year working on this course
The Georgian language is almost impossible for foreigners to learn if you don’t get a good introduction.
We literally read through old German and Russian books trying to understand the system behind it.
As experienced language learners and teachers ourselves, we made this course with the love of trying to understand one of the oldest, most difficult yet beautiful languages. And that despite the tiny market.
We sincerely don’t think there is a better introduction. But judge for yourself with our 30-day money back guarantee.
Signed: Alex, Zhazira, Ilia, Lucas, and Amadeo.
P.S. The more money we make, the more future content we can create. ^^
Questions & Answers
How long do I have access to the course?
You'll have access for at least one year. You will also receive updates to our course, such as new videos or video improvements based on your comments.
How do I get a refund?
There’s a 30-day money-back guarantee. Simply go to your profile and fill in the contact form. We promise to refund you the course money within 3 days. You'll then lose access to all our material though.
What happens to the money?
We share fairly and transparently. Creators and people involved get 40% of the profits. Another 40% is reinvested into Lingophant to improve our app, infrastructure, etc. And 20% goes to Leni Academy, an NGO in Kutaisi that helped us. The more we make, the more future content we can create.
What level will I have afterwards?
You’ll have a basic understanding of how the language works. How words are created, how to distinguish between tenses, how people speak and what they say. Grow from a better place. You’ll also know how to continue learning from conversations.
In numbers, you’ll have an active vocabulary of 150+ phrases and have watched, rewatch, and read more than 80 minutes of unique listening material.
How can I ask questions?
In a WhatsApp group. And you can ask questions or give feedback to videos through comments.
Join, quickly introduce yourself, and you might enjoy the reminders.
Why do you think you can teach this?
We’re experienced language learners, and this content is literally what we’ve been missing so badly.
We've spent countless hours discussing the best way to teach this language and checked the correctness with teachers from university and linguist friends.
How would you describe your method?
A natural approach, supported with technology. You’ll listen to real people talking and recognise patterns naturally. Our brains are actually machines for understanding input, and need exposure to comprehensible input.
The complexity of grammar requires the ability to recognise these patterns, but we keep it short and explain the essentials well.
Memorizing useful phrases is done with our Lingophant App, to build your active vocabulary. That way, you’ll know more than a hundred correct phrases. This can give you the confidence to express yourself.
How do I continue after this course?
You know the basics and you can then have efficient lessons with a teacher. We will recommend to you how to find one and how to work together efficiently.
With our app, you can build your personalised vocabulary of professional, fun or generally personalised vocabulary. Just meet a friend or find a teacher and record the phrases you need. It's a natural approach.
We're also planning on creating extra content packs, such as interviews and music packs.
