Teresa Chavez

My name is Teresa Chavez, and I am currently a Special Education Paraprofessional and an Academic Tutor in Long Beach, CA. I have been working with children and young adolescents for about 7 years in various settings including in-clinic, school, and home settings. I have been fortunate enough to be able to work with diverse groups of students, and have had the privilege to provide support to students with moderate to severe behaviors.

I am extremely passionate about today’s youth and am working to build a safe environment for all of my students in which they can express themselves freely and gain confidence to do whatever they need to do to take on the world.
