Agnes Mitchell
Arise Tutor
Born on the Isle of Lewis, and raised on the Isle of Skye, with her dad’s side coming from the island of North Uist, Agnes was steeped in multiple Gaelic dialects and culture from birth. Her first language was Gaelic, and she also holds an honors degree in Gaelic Language and culture, a degree done entirely through the medium of Gaelic via the Gaelic college on Skye.
She brings together a technical knowledge of the language with an intimate knowledge and love for Scottish Gaelic culture, song, poetry, and heritage. Agnes also teaches Scottish Gaelic in schools and night classes and is known by her students for being out of the box and enthusiastic.
Agnes’ first degree was in Theology and she has been involved in ministry of some kind since her teen years. She brings her love for Gaelic and her love for Jesus together, by being a regular speaker on Christian Gaelic radio programs.
