About Grace Deneen
# Welcome – I’m Grace Deneen Juris Doctor (JD) • Master’s Degree • Advanced TEFL/TESOL Certified • Official Chinese National English Teaching License For the past 10 years I taught full-time in top international schools and universities across China, Taiwan, and South Korea, helping thousands of students from age 5 to adult reach native-like fluency. I have successfully guided young children to read their first English words, prepared teenagers for perfect SAT/ACT and IELTS 8.5+ scores, and coached lawyers and executives to write and speak like American professionals. My lessons are warm, structured, and 100% tailored to your exact goals and level – whether your child needs strong phonics and reading confidence, you are catching up in school, or you want flawless legal, business, or academic English.

My Teaching Approach – Grace Deneen, JD + Master’s Degree
Teaching Method & Techniques
As Grace Deneen, I blend legal expertise with internationally proven language teaching methods. I am ESL-certified with Advanced TEFL, TESOL, and a Chinese National Teaching Certificate for English. With 10 years of full-time classroom and online teaching experience across Asia (China, Taiwan, South Korea), I use structured literacy, explicit phonics (Orton-Gillingham influenced), task-based learning, and real-world immersion techniques that actually work for both young learners and adults.
A Typical Lesson Plan (50–60 minutes)
1–5 min: Fun warm-up + review
6–20 min: Explicit teaching of new phonics rule, vocabulary, or grammar pattern
21–40 min: Controlled → guided → free practice (reading decodable texts, role-plays, writing scaffolds)
41–55 min: Fluency building + detailed corrective feedback
56–60 min: Personalized homework and next-step goals
