Meet McKenna

Founder of Learning Solution

Advanced Certified Barton Tutor — Yuma’s Only Certified Provider

I created Learning Solution because too many bright children are told they just need to “try harder.”

After working closely with students who struggled to read despite being intelligent and capable, I saw a pattern: they weren’t lacking effort. They were lacking the right instruction.

That’s where everything changed.

I specialize in structured literacy instruction using the Barton Reading & Spelling System, a research-based program designed specifically for students with dyslexia.

My work focuses on helping students build strong foundational skills in:

  • Phonemic awareness

  • Decoding and encoding

  • Spelling patterns

  • Reading fluency

  • Confidence and independence

I have completed Wrightslaw Special Education Law & Advocacy training and continue ongoing professional development in dyslexia education to ensure families receive informed, effective support.

Every child I work with is supported with patience, structure, and belief in their ability to succeed.

Because struggling to read should never define a child’s potential.
