Foreign language skills in English, French, and Spanish hired me to work as a Foreign Language Teacher at the Community High School District 218 during 1988-1989, teaching French and Spanish at the Alan B. Shepard High School with an annual salary of $23,778.
Bilingual aptitude in English and Spanish opened the door for me to work as Faculty at St. Augustine University in Chicago where I was teaching English as a Second Language, College Prep and Developmental Skills, U.S. Citizenship for the Amnesty Program, Research Writing and other language development courses which included preparation for High School General Education Development.
Afterwards, I also worked as Faculty for Oakton Community College in the Continuing Education Program, Alliance for Lifelong Learning in Skokie and Des Plaines, Illinois. I was teaching English as a Second Language from August 1992 until March 1993.
From September 18, 1997 through October 8, 2001, I was employed as Faculty at the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn and Lombard, teaching English Writing Development, English 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105, on campus, as well as commuting to teach Spanish for Healthcare Professionals at Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove, National Chiropractic College in Lombard, also known as National University for Health Sciences, and at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield, Illinois.
In addition, I taught French and Spanish for Berlitz Schools of Languages in Chicago, Hinsdale, Oak Brook Brook Forest and York Middle School, and Schaumburg, Illinois, U.S.A. Foreign language teaching experience at Inlingua Schools of Languages also included commuting to teach on-site visiting corporate clients, and other travelling students at home. Arroyave Academy of Languages in Highland Park and Arlington Heights also provided teaching work for corporate clients which included translation for the General Learning Corporation in Northbrook, Caremark, Abbott Laboratories, Baxter International and other global companies promoting languages around the world.

When I heard that the East Indian Restaurant Viceroy in Lombard is permanently closed, I remembered that Patrick Dimperio invited me to dinner while I was working for him at Interactive Media Worldwide, aka PIA Inc., formerly located at Orleans and Institute, River North area in the Windy City Cook County Illinois USA.
Pat Dimperio used to drive me home after work, when he could go on his way to Park Ridge afterwards. One day, he invited me to the Viceroy of India for an East Indian dinner at this restaurant, formerly at the corner of West Roosevelt Road, Route 38, and Highland Avenue.
He suggested to order the Tandoori chicken served with basmati rice, vegetables, etc. He enjoyed East Indian cuisine. Since I had never tasted Tandoori chicken at the Viceroy before, Pat and I shared an East Indian meal together some years ago.
Patrick Dimperio and I worked together for Interactive Media Worldwide, also known as Public Access Information Inc. during a project for the State of Illinois Office of Tourism which involved Travel Information Kiosks providing local listings city guides for travelers across the USA and around the world.
