About Xena

My name is Xena, and I am a 25-year-old Illinois-licensed paraprofessional with three years of experience supporting students in special education. I have an associate's degree and a strong background working with diverse learners in both classroom and one-on-one settings. I specialize in Language Arts, Spanish (foreign language), and general study support, including test prep, reading comprehension, writing skills, vocabulary building, and organizing study strategies. I'm patient, encouraging, and skilled at breaking down information in a way that feels manageable and confidence-boosting. I love helping students understand material in their own way, build strong academic habits, and feel proud of their progress. My goal is always to create a supportive, judgment-free learning environment that helps each student succeed.
