Miguel Delgadillo I taking the class computer information systems 2 at De Anza college in Cupertino California, summer session 2012. This is an online class; no formal class meetings and lots of of online reading.

I have been involved in education for over 20 years. I worked as a substitute school teacher in the public school systems in a couple of districts. I am an English as a Second Language teacher to adults in San Jose CA. I like my job in that it lets me help immigrants to learn English and assimilate into modern America. I also get to practice speaking Spanish and Chinese.

My theory of teaching English is similar to all my interests. I believe in a holistic approach that presents a works in progress attitude. Nothing can be mastered in a short time but throughout one's life they may attain a proficiency in many things. I graduated San Jose State with a B.A. in Political Science in 1982. I traveled throughout Latin America and lived in Taiwan for a couple of years. I am a life long exercise and health enthusiast. I practice martial arts; kung fu, jiu jitus kickboxing.
