About the Author

Teach Me Joy was begun by Joy Bryant, an elementary school teacher that became a homeschool mom. Along with her degree in Elementary Education she obtained certification through the National Institute of Learning Disabilities (NILD) to do educational therapy with those who have learning disabilities. She has taught grades K4-4th, most in Christian school settings. Joy's programs are designed to meet the educational needs of students in a way that is easy for the homeschool mom and doesn’t require a lot of out of pocket expense.
