Title
Jay Hernandez oral history transcript
Description
A transcript of an oral history of Jay Hernandez, Teacher at Brookwood Elementary School, on Hispanics in the Hillsboro schools. Mr. Hernandez has 10-20 students of Hispanic background in his classes and also teaches in the Migrant Summer School program. In ESL he tried to use a more tactile, reality-based learning. Students who can read and write well in their own language have an easier time learning a second language. During the interview he esxpresses the need to show Hispanic parents and students examples of Latinos being successful, going to college and having careers. Furthermore that there should be more consistency and continuity in the ESL programs in all the schools.Overall this would prove extremely beneficial to the students as well as the community.
