While my Father, Roberto Hung Juris Doctor, was recovering from neurosurgery caused by aneurysm and a Traumatic Brain Injury at our Lombard home during July 1997, I received a call from Kim Ramey, Community Marketing Director at the College of Du Page, www.cod.edu, in Glen Ellyn, and later from Kathy McCullough, R.N., offering faculty employment to develop a curriculum program for Health Care Professionals in Spanish Communications for Human Resources at Good Samaritan Advocate Hospital, National Chiropractic College, also known today as the National University Health Sciences in the Village of Lombard, and Central Du Page Hospital in Winfield, Illinois, in order to teach for the Business Professional Institute managed by Lotty Petusky at the College of Du Page, offering to develop another curriculum program for Business Communications in Spanish for Lucent Technologies in Lisle-Naperville, and AT&T Bell Labs in Du Page County, Illinois.  The Business Professional Institute by the West Campus was located next to the Police Academy and Training Center for Paramedics at the College of Du Page in Glen Ellyn, Illinois USA.

The College of Du Page Human Resources employed me as Faculty to teach Developmental Writing 101, and the Center for Independent Learning assigned teaching for English 101, 102, 103, 104, 105 at the Main Campus in Glen Ellyn, Illinois.

In addition, Kathy Doyle who worked for the Tutoring Center, called me to provide Tutoring Sessions in Spanish for individual students who wanted to practice the language by speaking with an instructor.
