スタッフのご紹介
Ira Cohen
Center Director
I have always found working with international students a great experience. I have graduate degrees in Slavic Languages and Literatures and have studied several foreign languages…I have lived and worked overseas, Mexico, Iran, Soviet Union, and understand the great benefit study and work abroad can provide. My 35 years of working in ESL as a teacher and administrator have been very rewarding. As Director of ELS San Francisco, I have had the opportunity to meet thousands of great people and come to understand the importance of international cooperation. Seeing our students graduate from ELS and go on to colleges gives me and my staff a great sense of purpose in our day-to-day interaction with students.
Steve Shin
Academic Director
I love interacting with students from all over the world! I began as a teacher and have worked at several different ELS centers. I made my way out to California from Washington, D.C., stopping in Michigan along the way. I also have experience abroad in Europe and South America. Living in many different places have made me appreciate the various culutres and their people. I am excited about getting our students involved around Berkeley, and I enjoy helping all the students, speaking with them everyday about things that interest them.
Thomas Breckenridge
Assistant Academic Director
I have worked for ELS for over 35 years. My ESL career began after graduation from Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio when I joined the Peace Corps and taught in Afghanistan. Shortly after returning to the US, I began to teach at ELS in Washington, D.C. After teaching for twelve years, I became an Academic Director in 1985. I've also worked at ELS centers in Redlands and Oakland, CA, but am now very happily settled in San Francisco.
Ross Thoden
International Student Advisor
I am originally from a small New Jersey town; my love of languages started there. I majored in a French/European Area Study at American University. While a student, I studied a semester each in Paris and Rome. My first job out of college was teaching ESL in South Korea for two years. That experience led me to my career at ELS, which I began in Central Admissions, then moved onto my current positions in San Francisco.
Roshan Khorshidchehr
IELTS Administrator
I was born in Bombay, India and graduated in Psychology and Philosophy. I lived in London, UK for 25 years where I started my career in teaching and Management. I worked at the Adult College for 12 years and my last position was a Quality and CPD Manger. I was responsible for 200 part time professional staff with a budget of over $250,000. My "can-do" philosophy and as an individual who is not averse to change and challenge my move to the US was smoother than I thought. I am the only individual who has worked in all ELS East Bay Centers. My current role is of an IELTS Administrator and a Housing Assistant with ELS, San Francisco.
