05 / THE FOUNDER
Hi, I’m
Alessandra.

I’m a California-born English teacher, linguist and professional artist based in Tbilisi.
I’ve taught English for more than ten years, including professionals from EU institutions and international companies in Luxembourg and Brussels. I’m bilingual in English and Russian, and my background spans language, art and cultural education.
I created Hi to bring those worlds together: thoughtful teaching, interesting ideas and spaces where people actually want to talk.

What exactly is Hi?

Do I need perfect English to join?
Definitely not. Different Hi formats may have different recommended levels, but the goal is real communication, not perfect grammar. For Hi. Speak, B1 is currently recommended.

Yes. Hi is open to thoughtful collaborations with venues, artists, educators, cultural projects and other people or spaces that fit the concept. DM @hi.space.tbilisi to say hi.
