Gabby Wallace

Hi, I’m Gabby Wallace, founder of Go Natural English. I’m passionate about helping you to achieve your life goals including confidence and fluency in English. My teaching career has spanned more than 20 years. I’ve grown from an ESL/EFL volunteer with immigrants to a university Professor working in Japan and the USA, to a Corporate English Trainer, then a university Program Coordinator and Teacher Trainer.

I have a Bachelors Degree in International Studies & Spanish and a Masters Degree in Education – Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages and was born to teach and inspire.

Originally I am from Minneapolis, in the United States. English is my native language and I’ve learned to speak Spanish, Portuguese and some Japanese and some French. I’m a language nerd!

I love nothing more than helping people realize their full potential, including learning the English language.

Vanessa

Hello, students! I am glad you stopped by. My name is Vanessa and I am an ESL teacher at Go Natural English. I absolutely love what I do, and I hope to inspire and motivate you to continue your foreign language studies. 

I graduated from California State University, Long Beach with a degree in Romance Languages and Literatures and I have been teaching English, Spanish, and Italian for five years. 

Besides my degree from my university, I also obtained a TEFL certification to be able to teach English to wonderful international students like you! 

Although I work with all age groups, my heart, interest, and expertise are with adult learners.

vanessa

I was born in Los Angeles, California and grew up in a traditional Mexican and Spanish speaking household. From very early on in my life, I was able to notice the benefits of being bilingual and bicultural. I always knew that I wanted to expand my knowledge of the world and its endless list of amazing languages and cultures. 

I began to travel solo during my teenage years and I haven’t stopped since! I speak English, Spanish, and Italian fluently and I know some French, Albanian, and German. Throughout the years, I have not only discovered the most beautiful lands, but I have made genuine connections with great people from all over the world thanks to my passion for foreign languages and travel. 

This is one of the main reasons why I decided to become an ESL teacher and help others achieve their goals of mastering their English skills and knowledge of American culture. I have had the experience of being on both sides of the table, as a foreign language student and now an ESL teacher. This is why I am able to build an amazing connection with my students. I know exactly what they have to go through, and I am always more than happy to encourage them and guide them towards success.

I look forward to having you as my student!
