Rosaline Fung
-
- Born and raised in bilingual Hong Kong, Rosaline Lee Fung is extremely
well prepared from personal experience to assist students in language acquisition
and language improvement. While growing up in Hong Kong, she was a student
of English as a second language from elementary through high school, so
she intimately understands the problems of second-language students.
-
- In the United States she continued
her English education at Briar Cliff College and later at Idaho State University
as an International Peace Scholar. After completing her M.A. as an International
Peace Scholar in 1968, Rosaline Fung launched a widely varied teaching
career. Drawing from her multi-lingual background, she published
a series of eight textbooks on writing entitled Patterns
for Success, which are used in schools all over the world, including
the US, Canada, and China. In the Patterns for Success series Rosaline
Fung combines what she has learned in her multi-lingual personal life and
her many years of successful teaching experience to take the mystery -
and the misery - out of writing English sentences, paragraphs, and essays.
-
- In 1984 Rosaline Fung joined San
Joaquin Delta College, where she has taught college English, basic English,
and English as a second language. She has been a leader and innovator in
curriculum development, especially in basic language acquisition. She was
instrumental in developing materials for the innovative Delta College Writing
Lab, which serves students with all types of problems in composition. She
co-authored the Writing Lab Manual currently in use. She helped to design
a training program for and taught the classes of the Chinese visiting teachers
at Delta College for three semesters. Aside from teaching English and ESL
and coordinating special programs for visiting educators from China at
SJDC, she currently serves on the International Educational Advisory Council
of U-CANDU Learning Centers (Canada). Recent recognition includes
commendations in the 27th edition (1999) of Who's Who in the West and in
the 17th edition (2000) of Who's Who in the World.
