WELCOME CHERYL CHANG TO LVPV!
LVPV is excited to have Cheryl join the program. Ever since she can remember, Cheryl has had a strong interest in other cultures and languages.  As an undergraduate, she studied German, French and Italian and had the opportunity to study and work abroad for several years.  As someone who has lived and worked in another country, Cheryl understands the importance of acclimating to both the culture and the language in order to lead a more enriching and fulfilling lifestyle. Cheryl is very happy to be working with ESL and hopes that she can bring as much value and inspiration to the program as her favorite language teachers  gave to her. Please stop by and meet Cheryl, she is in the LVPV office at Westwood Library on Mondays 5-9pm and Thursdays 3-7pm.
