Jaden Hollyfield

I am truly passionate about teaching and dedicated to providing students with the love, support, and guidance they need to succeed. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with students across various grade levels, starting with practicums through the University of Tennessee, where I gained experience in Kindergarten, 2nd, and 3rd grades. In addition, my role as a part-time tutor at Pleasant Ridge Elementary has given me the opportunity to work closely with small groups of students, allowing me to tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. One of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had was stepping in for a Kindergarten teacher on maternity leave, where I took full responsibility for the classroom. This experience reinforced my love for helping students grow and thrive. Watching students excel in their academic journey is one of the most fulfilling parts of teaching, and I am more excited than ever about pursuing a career in education. I’m committed to creating a positive and nurturing learning environment where every student feels valued and empowered to reach their potential.
