Information about Chioma
My mother helped me develop a love for reading from a very early age and a brilliant headmistress cultivated my confidence in writing. This translated in later years to a Bachelors and Masters Degree in English and Creative Writing respectively at Brunel University. I currently enjoy reading and writing as a hobby and started tutoring as a favour to friends and family.
I began tutoring professionally three years ago when a friend established a summer school. Following this I volunteered at a local primary school as a teaching assistant where my main focus was supporting students who required that bit of extra attention. This gave me the opportunity to really develop my teaching skills both from practice and observation of other teachers.
These combined experiences have been extremely rewarding especially as I am able to now significantly contribute to a students development both emotionally and academically. I thoroughly enjoy one-to-one tutoring because I am able to help an individual gain confidence, a key to making continued progress, in all aspects of life. I hope to continue encouraging children and adults to enjoy reading and writing, with all its facets, into the indefinite future.
Availability: Varies from week to week but Im quite flexible so message me if you have a specific request.
Willing to travel: 10 miles
Experience: I gained a 1:1 Joint Honours BA in English and Creative Writing at Brunel University London in 2012 and a Masters degree in Creative Writing with distinction in the following year.
I have experience as a one to one English tutor.
I have over nine years experience as a foster carer where I cared for over 23 children over that period. These included children with learning difficulties and challenging behaviour as well as children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
I have experience as a summer school teacher where I facilitated English and Creative Writing classes daily during the summer and on evenings during term time

Chioma is a dedicated tutor who plans her sessions thoroughly and has adapted to suit my son`s needs and levels. She has managed to build very good rapport with my 12-year old son via Zoom, which is not always easy to do when not face-to-face. She is an inspiring and very caring tutor who gets academic results by creating a nurturing and safe learning space. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have contacted Chioma to help me edit my poems. So far we have had only one session (we agreed that I will contact Chioma when I write more poems and reflective stories). Our session went very well. I received lots of very helpful suggestions. In the future hope to have more sessions with this tutor.
