About Gia
I’m a passionate writing instructor with a B.A. in English (Creative Writing emphasis) and a Certificate in Intercultural Fluency from Lindenwood University. I’ve been writing stories since childhood, completed my first novella at fifteen, and am a self-published poet, short-story writer, and novelist— my debut, Bread of Adversity, is a historical fiction novel set in WWII France. As both an educator and author, I bring safe structure, empathy, and playfulness to every lesson. My teaching philosophy centers on exploration over perfection — I encourage students to dream big, take creative risks, make lots of mistakes, and view writing as a space for discovery. I design each session with a clear rhythm and focus so students always know what to expect, while still leaving room for spontaneous imagination. My goal is to help writers of all ages and interests unlock their authentic voice and build the confidence to bring their stories — and their worlds — to life. *For more info on my work, visit my website: (concealed information)

Aloha! I’m Gia MarajaLove-- a lifelong daydreamer, English degree-holder (B.A., Creative Writing), licensed public-school teacher, and self-published novelist, based in Hawai‘i.
I’ve been writing stories since childhood and have never stopped chasing the “what-ifs” that make life and storytelling meaningful.
My lessons are playful and imaginative-- designed for safe exploration, not rigidity or perfection.
Every session has a gentle rhythm to it: we begin with a creative warm-up to clear your day away, move into a focused skill or worldbuilding concept, and spend most of our time deep in conversation about your current project: a story, a world, and a handful of characters. I’m here to guide with a lamplight, not to dictate where you go.
I can help you with:
️Story development and creative writing craft
Worldbuilding and lore design (fantasy, sci-fi, historical, etc.)
Character creation and emotional realism
Narrative structure, editing, and feedback on works-in-progress
Any technical writing skills
All ages and experience levels are welcome, so long as you’re open to imagining freely and at least pondering your writing outside our lesson times.
Lesson Format:
40-minute Zoom sessions ($45)
1-hour FaceTime or WhatsApp sessions ($55) *(first lesson=$25 for 40m / $35 for 1h)
I’m located in Hawai‘i (HST), and I work with students across time zones — weekend and evening lessons available!
If you’re ready to bring the world that's been living in your head to life, let’s begin your next chapter together!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
Gia has a seemingly endless supply of patience and I think genuinely gets fulfillment out of helping people. Her natural passions for culture, language, and reading lend themselves well for her ability to teach. Also, she will never pass up an opportunity for a pun and will always laugh at your jokes, no matter how bad they are.
Gia is knowledgeable, passionate, and personable - all of which make her an excellent teacher. Beyond that, she is also a talented writer and a published author. Her boots-on-the-ground experience gives her crucial insight and skill in the creative writing world. Not only will Gia give you valuable instruction, but she will also be your biggest cheerleader and a credible guide as you learn the art and science of creative writing.
