Meet our team

WENDY COPPEDGE
Founder

Wendy Coppedge – Founder

Her family has been involved with supplemental education since 1991. She enrolled her three children in local math and reading programs to prevent any problems with the high school curriculum. She saw firsthand how daily practice built confidence and fundamental skills that her family still benefits from today. While her children frequently complained about doing the extra work as many children will do, she persevered!

Opening her first supplemental education center in 1994, she later started developing Gideon with a team of educators in 2002 to create the ultimate math and reading program.

Wendy lives in Dallas, TX and spoils her grandchildren.
