Jamal Russell
Santa Barbara, CA

PhD Candidate; English Tutor

I have taught English at the collegiate level for over 9 years, and have taught across subjects and areas of emphasis. My courses often integrated approaches to the close reading of literary texts with the instruction of composition and rhetoric. Through this, I was able to effectively teach my students not only how to examine important literary works in detail, but also how to effectively articulate their thoughts on said material. I have taught a number of courses in 20th and 21st Century American and Anglophone literature using these methods to great success in the classroom. I myself was an exceptional English student at every level of schooling, which ultimately resulted in me pursuing an English PhD at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Even when I was not primarily pursuing English studies, I was still a passionate student of the subject, which informed my interest in international law while a Political Student at The Ohio State University and eventually resulted in me transitioning to English studies at Wright State University. These experiences provide me with an important perspective on how the tools of English study can apply to contexts beyond those of the discipline, which my students have found extremely valuable both in the classroom and beyond it. I have also worked at a music writer at points throughout my career, providing me with real-world experience regarding the application of the techniques of English study. In particular, the many hours I have spent editing my articles and those of others as a writer allow me to provide valuable practical advice for any student who wants to become a better writer.

Erol Goceda
West Hollywood, CA

PhD Level Tech-Inspired Teacher and Multimedia Specialist

My emphasis is on a dialogue-driven and media-enriched practice toward the language. This establishes a common and confident ground for inspirational English learning. The goal is to address critical, daunting issues that often derail students’ track toward their essay, script writing, accent issue, conversation or any related English challenge. For example, I use a customized curriculum addressing frequently requested themes, as creativity, personal style, grammar, punctuation, diction, syntax, and idea-generation. Furthermore, students have favorably reviewed my unique usage of audio monitoring software during online lessons to help approximate accent issues between different languages. Students obtain a repository of audio files during each lesson to be used for actively evaluating individual expression while waiting in line, traffic, and during breaks. My multimedia approach that coordinates sound, visual, and online resource, as Merriam-Webster and Google Earth, connects to the global, international significance of the language. I have facilitated learning for diverse age levels, as children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. I have years of experience teaching ESL/English at public and private educational settings, including private school, university, library, and online web-conference. A dedicated PhD for language and E-Learning, I am a member of the Association for Language Learning, located in Leicester, UK.
