Who Are We?

Sure Foundation Reading is Owned and Founded by Jackie and Shaun.

Jackie has been teaching reading with phonics for over 25 years for various non-profits, private schools, and homeschool groups, while also doing private and group tutoring. Years ago, she recognized that many families turned to homeschooling when traditional schools failed to foster independent learning and struggled to teach students how to read beyond basic children's books.

But once homeschooled, these families often didn’t know where to turn; the resources they did find required a lot of time and effort to work, if they worked at all. Then they often turned to private schools for help, and once again, most did not have the tools or knowledge to assist these struggling kids. In short, public schools couldn’t help, homeschoolers couldn’t find how to help them, and private schools didn’t know how to help. 

This led Jackie to take her teaching skills out of the house and into the world! She enlisted the help of her tech-savvy son, Shaun, to develop a website and help her create an online teaching system. This system was designed to scale her proven methods, enabling her to reach as many struggling children, teens, and adults as possible, no matter where they are in the world! Thus, Sure Foundation Reading was born!
