“I was a stay-at-home mom when I came across an ad for an H&R Block income tax course. I loved math and numbers and thought it would be fun to take the course. I enjoyed the course, passed it, and applied for a position with H&R Block because I wanted to be around adults and bring in some extra income for the family,” said Janet Freeman, Senior Tax Analyst for H&R Block.

I have watched their family grow to a family of five, with their oldest child graduating from college and now engaged.” Freeman added.
