About me

I’ve taught English for 15 years. During that time I’ve been a private home educator, I’ve taught in a traditional classroom and I’ve been teaching online for about 5 years. I’m a native English speaker from the United States and I live in the state of California on the west coast of the U.S.

I was a business major at Santa Rosa J.C. and a liberal arts major at Chabot College. I hold a TESOL certificate (which stands for Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages) and a business English certificate.

“The lessons with Gwen help me a lot to improve my language skills. She is responsive to my personal needs, including the timing of the lessons. The lessons are entertaining and fun.
Thank you!”

“Gwen makes the lessons very varied and directly addresses my weak points, which allows me to see progress much faster. Lessons with Gwen are very enjoyable and fun. She has already prepared me for the First (FCE) exam and I am now about to take the BEC Higher exam.

Because of the flexible class times, I can recommend the online language course to everyone.”

Why am I teaching online? – I learn a lot from my students about their place on the globe and their ways.  I really like this.  I believe the one-to-one ratio of online teaching is more effective for the student than the thirty-to-one ratio of a classroom setting.  If a doctor had to give one cure for thirty patients with different difficulties he would not be as effective as he would be helping one patient at a time.  I like helping one student at a time with exactly what they need.
