Long Beach Polytechnic High School welcomed Chelsea Powell this year as a Spanish teacher.
Ms. Powell received her bachelor’s degree at California State University, Long Beach and her teaching credentials at San Diego State University. She also studied abroad and lived in Salamanca, Spain and was also granted the opportunity to teach English in Costa Rica.
“I like to do activities that get the kids out of their seats, that get them talking to each other,” Powell said in describing her style of teaching. About Poly, she said, “Everybody is very friendly! Even though it’s [Polytechnic High School] so large, it feels small once you start to meet people and see how nice everybody is.”
