About Gina
I have been an English teacher in the UK and internationally for 15 years working with people from all cultural and social backgrounds. My degree in English, experience as a teacher and background with a wide range of audiences has made copywriting the natural progression of my skill set. I currently work with the marketing and communications team at Seven Stories in Newcastle developing their blog, social media and in house literature and have previously written for the online educational forum Teacer Toolkit.
