Hello My Name Is...
Yolanda Jones
My name is Yolanda Jones and I am excited to join The Howard Team for the second year in a row. I have lived in Chattanooga all my life. I went to middle and high school at Chattanooga High School Center for Creative Arts where I majored in Musical Theater, which I still enjoy today. I graduated with my Bachelor's degree from UTC in 2018.
I have been teaching high school English for two years, but this will be my first year teaching ninth grade. She can't wait to help usher freshmen into their journey through high school.
Before going to UTC to become a teacher, I worked for ten years in the behavior health field, teaching children and adolescents social and emotional skills to help them handle their emotions appropriately. I feel like this work has prepared me to help your students in the classroom as much as all of my classes in college.
I am looking forward to teaching your students and talking to you. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to me. My email address is [email protected].
