Why did we begin MEWE English?
MEWE English helps international humans. It is difficult to live in the USA, especially if you are from another country. Brave foreigners are seen every day who need English. Not only do we observe their courage, but we are also their cheerleader. We have lived in four countries (America, Canada, Brazil, and Japan) and have traveled while navigating new cultures and multiple languages. It wasn’t easy. We are supporting people and will continue. Our specialty is TOEFL, SAT, Grammar/Syntax, Reading & Writing, Listening, and Conversational English. We desire to help you too. #WhyIDoThis
Melanie and Wilf are the founders of MEWE English, located in Portland, Oregon. They are language learners who lived in Japan for one year while teaching English. Since then, they have traveled back to Asia four more times. In 1992, they began hosting international students in their home. They also interact with international travelers through Airbnb. Melanie is a certified ESL instructor who has been teaching and tutoring in Portland since 2012. Wilf enjoys serving the international community in other tangible ways. Besides teaching throughout the year, Melanie is a graphic designer, tour guide, and recruiter for homestay families. Wilf is a General Contractor who builds, maintains, fixes, and invents things. Come and meet them to see how they can support you as you establish yourself in America.
