Erol Gokcedag

A tech-inspired freelance PhD and education researcher, I often enjoy favorable feedback for my lesson delivery that connects contemporary tools to students' critical challenges. I grew up multilingually in Europe and United States, coordinating employment with educational perspectives to then provide a relevant learning experience for demanding clients. For instance, my background as a multimedia specialist often inspires creative content that delivers an edge over problems and tasks. Examples are interactive study guides and customized digital game elements. I have taught various English topics, including composition, accent-reduction, and creative writing, to diverse demographics: adult learners, special needs, seniors, and at global destinations. I have a Ph.D. in E-Learning and Education Technology Leadership and a BA in English from regionally accredited universities. My dissertation is available online and is relevant to my practice and perspective. My style and attitude toward teaching is a balance between subject delivery and reflective, supportive interaction. I seek to enable current research on education for busy, yet goal-driven student interests. This is done through customized online lessons coordinating the experience with optimal resources and tools: ESL and Speech students learn to monitor their own phonological issues with dedicated software/feedback, guiding German students through dialogues and exercises, and ensuring relevant resources for Excel and related productivity lessons.
