Mark's Gospel was the first gospel to be written and internal evidence dates it to approximately 70 CE. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that Mark seems to depend on traditions (and perhaps already shaped sources) received in Greek.
Matthew's Gospel came next and appears to have been written during the 80s of the first century, although Brown cautions to allow a few years either side of that decade. A parallel reading in the Greek language shows that Matthew was based on Mark and another, now lost document which scholars call the 'Q' document, with some material unique to Matthew.
Luke's Gospel came next and was written late in the 90s or quite early in the second century. Like Matthew, it was substantially based on Mark and Q, with some material unique to Luke.
John's Gospel was the fourth gospel, written early in the second century. It differs more from the other, 'synoptic' gospels, having limited input direct from Mark and was mainly inspired by Luke's Gospel.
The early Church Fathers preferred a sequence in which Matthew was written first, with Mark and Lukebased on Matthew. This had the advantage of a single source, which was assumed to have been written by an eye-witness, but modern scholarship demonstrates that this sequence is inconsistent with the texts themselves.
The four gospels in the New Testament are in The Bible in this order Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John but they WERE WRITTEN IN THIS ORDER, Mark, Luke, Matthew, and John

No one knows who wrote the gospels.
AnswerThe gospels of the New Testament were first written in Greek.
No, the Gospels were written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Matthew was considered to be the most Jewish of the Gospels (rightly so), so it served as a sort of "transition" (not really the right word, but it will do) in between the Old and New Testaments.
they were written after the death of Jesus
The Gospels came to be written by man....through God....the gospels are the life of Jesus Christ from birth to his years of ministering to God to his gruesome death....

Jesus did not teach from the gospels per se, as the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John had not yet been written. They are the account of His life and teachings written by these men after Jesus had died.
The 4 Gospels were written by 4 people about one Jesus.
