About Gina
I am a professional private tutor with 10 years teaching experience in humanities subjects. I specialize in English language, English literature and creative writing, but am able to offer other subjects so please enquire. Prior to lockdown I offered individual and group lessons in person, based in Essex, UK. I am currently available for online lessons.
I have experience of successfully supporting students who have struggled working in group environments, both in schools and online, during lockdown.
I am a patient, creative and conscientious tutor, with an enthusiasm for supporting students in developing their full potential.
After initially volunteering as a reading mentor, I quickly realized my passion for helping children to achieve academic success. As well as one-to-one tutoring, I went on to teach a number of literacy, drama and creative writing workshops within primary schools.
I am a very friendly tutor with experience in finding a way forward for anxious learners, as well as those who lack confidence in literacy. I have also worked with higher-ability students in need of a greater challenge. I work with both children and adults and am an experienced GCSE tutor.

I believe that a love of reading can act as a gateway of discovery for young people, nurturing their imaginative and naturally curious minds, towards both analytical thinking and creativity.
I treat all my students as individuals, recognizing that I need to be adaptable to their learning styles and interests. I find this is an effective approach, sparking a passion for learning and developing enthusiastic students, with the skills they need for educational success.
When faced with a challenge, I am always willing to research and learn, seeking new ways to support my students. Supporting students in developing the skills (and an eager, enquiring mind-set) necessary for life-long learning, is one of my key objectives.
I nurture children to become confident students, curious about the world and equipped with skills for independent study. I encourage my students to remember that learning and growing as a person is a life-long journey, and that we all make progress at different rates. Mistakes and struggles are learning opportunities!
Neurodiversity and well-being:
I have experience of supporting dyslexic students and working with young people experiencing anxiety. I incorporate relaxation and study focus exercises into lessons where needed and support students to understand their own learning style and coping strategies.
