Job:

I have worked at Cerritos College since 1981. My first job was as a part-time student worker for the Reading Department. In 1987 I was hired by the Reading Department as a full-time Classified Computerized Instructional Support.

Under that job I was able to oversee the operation and resources of the Reading Center, as well as to lead the work of student workers. Other responsibilities included and were not limited to:

Supervision of the computer network.

Participation in hardware/software specifications and evaluation.

Installation of software used by reading students and staff.

Assisting reading students and faculty on an individual or group basis with Computer Assisted Instruction.

Budgeting and purchasing materials and equipment.

I was able to work with a wide variety of students, who's main goal is to improve their reading skills. Year after year, students have shown a big interest in our computer programs. Their major emphasis is to help students develop skills in Main Ideas/Details, Vocabulary, Relationships, etc. The "Reading Efficiency Program" by Weaver has been used by the Reading Department for many years.
