About The Latest Program
Happy Chinese New Year!

The lunar calendar signals the start of a new year and the beginning of spring. It’s celebrated by Chinese people across the world with various festivities.

The Chinese New Year celebration has many religious traditions and beliefs, but the most important part is an opportunity to gather and wish others good fortune for the coming year.

With that idea in mind, we chatted with Maggie Zhu, a culinary author on Chinese Homestyle meals, for some menu suggestions to include for our celebration parties.

About Gloria

Picture
As a learning specialist, I used brain based techniques, neuro-linguistic strategies, and administered testing/screening for preschool through 8th grade. I worked with all grade levels and have experience as a reading/writing teacher, diagnostic/prescriptive testing coordinator, and assisted parents as a learning consultant.

I have a double MA degree in Reading/Special Education/Learning Disabilities, multi-certifications/licenses in four states, administration/supervision certifications, and published educational articles for school districts and magazines. I presented workshops for teachers and wrote activities for a preschool prevention grant program. My experience also includes teaching neuro-linguistic reading techniques at the college level.

I have a chapter in the recently published book No Mistakes How You Can Change Adversity into Abundance.



I also was selected as the grand prize winner to represent Ford City Mall in Chicago, and I was one of the top twenty speaker/writers in the 2012 Next Greatest Speaker and Authors’ Competition.

In the field of nutrition and creative food preparation, I have over 300 hundred winning recipes that were selected by various companies and organizations in their food competitions. My recipes are printed in many company and industry publications. Also, I have appeared on television, radio programs, and have been featured in magazines, newspapers, and other publications
