American Citizen
Literacy Update: June/July 2018
Mike
Wang is a prominent business man in China. He has two successful companies in
Beijing. Mike was able to provide a good life for his family in China but he
always went back to one memory. As a young man Mike came to this country for a
training and was impressed by American democracy and prosperity. He was
impressed by the idea that you could be anything you wanted in America. There
are no limitations to an idea. At that moment he knew that one day he would
become an American citizen. Mike has been here for 6 years as a permanent
resident.
One
day Mike came into our library and saw our Citizenship corner
and asked about the classes that we offered. He began attending them back in
January. Mike is now attending NorthWest College in West Covina. He is studying
for his Associate’s Degree in Healthcare Administration.
This
is such a change of direction to what his background is in. I mentioned this to
Mike, he said when he came to America he purchased healthcare for his family
and he was so confused. He looked at the problem through his business efficient
eyes. Mike feels there could be an easier way for people to understand and sign
up for the best healthcare for their family.
