Hi! I am Janiece Guili, and I am a living testimony of the grace of God.
My Testimony
I love to tell the story of God’s amazing grace in my life! Though I feel as though I could fill a library of books with a detailed version of my story, you a can find a condensed version here. Read and be encouraged!
My Education
I do not have anything that I have not received from the Lord. Every good and perfect gift has come from Him, and by grace, I hope to be a good steward of all that He has given to me.
M.A. TESL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) This two-year, intensive, linguistics degree has enabled me to master the English language. The skills gained from this graduate experience has enriched my academic repertoire with both research and educational program design capabilities. My editing, proofreading, and writing style abilities have also been greatly enriched as I have gained expert level English language skills.
M.Ed. Literacy- This two year, intensive literacy and education degree, has equipped me with leadership, organizational, and program design skills. Through rigorous research and demanding professors, I have gained the skills necessary to design literacy-enriched curriculum and resources as well as the ability to look for, stay up to date on, and successfully implement current educational trends.
B.A. History- This four year degree in history provided me with superb research, writing, and editing skills. Having taken courses in religion, New testament, and Old Testament, my time and study of God’s word still to this day benefits from all that I learned from this four year study. The broad overview of human history, as well as the historiographical knowledge and concepts, has enabled me to be an expert at fact-checking, and verifying both biblical and historical accuracy.
My Work Experience
I completed my Bachelors degree after I was married but my graduate education was started with a newborn in tow! I graduated with my second Master’s degree at the end of 2019 and decided to teach online with the spread of COVID-19. I created a business called beyond TOEFL and taught online, created a literacy blog and wrote articles, designed and facilitated a Home School Co-op, the eventually entered the classroom in 2023 to love on and teach 60+ young souls.
My experience in various educational contexts with both children and adult learners, has given me insight into what teachers need most int eh classroom and what Christian mothers need most at their home school tables. I desire to use my research, writing, and editing skills to be a support to the modern Christian educator.
My Family
God in His infinite mercy and kindness saved me from my sinful life and then added an extra blessing.
I am wife to the most amazing man in the world (13 years!), and we have 3 high energy kiddos. We are a tight-knit family that enjoys all thinks outdoors, and we all have an odd obsession with reading. We love Jesus, and enjoy keeping our table full with family, friends, and new faces. Our children are all musical, I have 2 violinists and a pianist!
My husband and best friend, Luke, is also an educator. He has an M.Ed. Special Education and is beloved by so many students.
The blessings of being a wife and mother is the one topic I cannot find the words to describe. I can only say: God is so amazingly loving, I am humbled by love to have such a gift as my family.
