Michelle has been told over and over again that she “is a light to others.” She has always loved learning, teaching and children. She is mother of five, grandmother to 2, and has worked for a combination of 29 years as owner of Heart to Heart Preschool and Child Care Service owner, Teacher/Educator, Certified Reading Specialist, Reading Tutor, and business owner of an award winning business that has been rated number one in her area for years. Michelle, previously a Joy School teacher and homeschool mother, believes in the importance of education and knows that reading plays a vital role in learning and in life! She created the JoyFully Read!™ Reading Program 17 years ago to assist her as a reading tutor in her tutoring business. JoyFully Read!™ has been used in home schools, online homeschools, private schools, a charter school, and personal as well as classroom tutoring for students of all ages. Michelle also helps parents, schools, teachers and tutors to become JRCP certified reading teachers through her program and welcomes and assists them in starting their own successful tutoring businesses. She loves enabling parents (especially moms) to be blessed with the ability to have very rewarding work from their own homes, when needed/desired, like she did.

Robin earned her Bachelor’s in Communications from Brigham Young University.
She has 7 years experience as a Reading Focus Group Para-educator for Lake Elsinore Unified School District.  She worked in advertising for 13 years but left that career to raise four sons. When they started attending school she loved volunteering in the classroom, which lead to a new career opportunity working with students mostly reading in small groups.
She loves working with children and all people in various capacities including Cub Scouts, Sunday School, as well as in the public school setting. She loves tutoring and loves to see those sparks of enlightenment that set a fire of a lifetime of learning through reading!

Rebecca holds a Bachelor of Religious Education (BRE) degree with a concentration in church music from Davis College.  She has taught in Sunday School, youth clubs, children’s choirs, women’s classes, and adult choirs over the past 25+ years.  As a homeschooling mother of six, she has also taught co-op classes for homeschoolers in many subjects, as well as teaching her own children from kindergarten through high school.

Rebecca has loved to read since early childhood; her mother could always expect to find her buried in a book somewhere.  Her children have inherited this love of reading through family read-aloud time and their own reading experiences.  Rebecca believes reading is one of the supreme joys in life, and everyone should have the opportunity to experience it.
