Meet the team

Wendy Morris

Co-Founder

Hi, I’m Wendy! My passion for teaching began in 2010 when I volunteered to teach teenagers in Guatemala. Inspired by that experience, I went on to complete my Certificate in English Language Teaching and began my teaching career in Dublin. Since then, I’ve taught learners of all ages and levels, from complete beginners to advanced exam classes, both in the classroom and online. My work also involved creating resources and developing course materials—something I found especially rewarding. I’ve always loved seeing students grow in confidence and achieve goals they once thought were out of reach.

Before teaching, I worked in hospitality and graduated with a degree in Hotel and Catering Management, receiving several awards for my studies. I also ran my own business for four years, which gave me valuable experience in organisation and entrepreneurship. These experiences gave me strong people skills, adaptability, and a practical mindset that I still use in teaching today.

I met Sarah in 2010 while teaching in a language school in Wicklow, Ireland and we’ve been working together ever since—and I feel very lucky that our shared passion for teaching also grew into a great friendship.

Sarah Gannon

Co-Founder

Hi, I’m Sarah! My passion for English language teaching began in 2009, when I completed my Certificate in English Language Teaching and moved to sunny Spain to start my career. A fantastic experience working at a summer camp in Bilbao confirmed that I had found my path.

Before teaching, I studied economics and geography at UCD, Ireland, and worked in the financial services industry. While I valued that experience, I felt a strong pull toward education and have never looked back.

Since then, I’ve taught young learners and adults, led exam preparation and business English classes, and delivered lessons both in person and online. Alongside teaching, I built a social media community helping students around the world learn English in fun, engaging ways.

I spent three years as Assistant Director of Studies and E-Learning Coordinator at a language school in Dublin, where I gained experience in course design and materials development. It was during this time that I met Wendy, and we’ve been great friends ever since!

As passionate teachers with nearly 30 years of combined experience in English language teaching, we understand the challenges teachers face in preparing engaging and effective ESL lessons, which can be stressful and time-consuming. We are fully qualified English language teachers, with internationally recognised qualifications accredited by ACELS and recognised by QQI, ensuring our resources meet the professional standards in the industry.
