Tutoring

We received this information from one of our parents. I am not supporting this tutoring service over others nor promoting it. I am simply passing along the information.

My name is Cara Taylor, Jaxon and Austin Taylor's mom, and I will be offering tutoring to the students of Pine Ridge Elementary this summer. I am a certified teacher in Georgia and Illinois, currently teaching 1st grade at Mountain View Elementary and have taught 2nd, 3rd and 5th grades previously. I offer my services at a low cost to students who are exiting 1st grade to exiting 4th grade. Tutoring will take place at my home in Ellerslie in the Deer Run subdivision and parents are welcome to stay for the tutoring time (about 50 minutes). If you could pass this information on to any parents who might inquire about summertime tutoring and to the teachers of these grade levels it would be greatly appreciated. I could also create a flyer to go home with the students if it would be helpful. My contact information is Cara Taylor, 706-562-4053.
Thank you very much,

Cara Taylor
