I recently moved to Nashville after I got married (maiden name: Grizzard) and I am loving the experience! I have a B.S. degree in Elementary Education from The University of TN - Martin. Currently I am teaching 4th grade Reading, Language Arts, and Social Studies so I am unavailable Monday - Friday until around 6. I am free most weekends though for anytime. I enjoy teaching children and I wouldn't mind helping to tutor them or help them get a head start on next year! I relate well with children of all ages! In order to get my Teaching License in the state of Tennessee I have had a professional background check! You can view my License at https://apps.tn.gov/eli-app/view-public.html?id=629037 Even if you are not specifically looking for someone to help with your child's education I am also just a lot of fun to have around! I have been a counselor Read more and volunteer at many summer camps including 4-H, Girl Scouts, Church, etc. and as a product I am skilled at assisting and providing the materials for Arts & Crafts and other great activities! I LOVE to be outside and I hope to share that with your child! If you are comfortable, I am very familiar with nearby state parks and various recreation areas and wouldn't mind to take them. Plus I'm a creative cook! I'm very resourceful. If you even throw just a few ingredients my way I can whip something up to eat. I have limited experience with elderly and adult care; my Grandfather had Alzheimer's and I spent quite sometime living with him and assisting with his care.
