Hi, I'm Danica.

I'm a BC-trained teacher and tutor based in the Okanagan who believes that everyone is capable of success in mathematics.

I taught in BC School District #22 from 2015-2017, and continued tutoring through to the end 2022. Tutoring was always a supplementary joy, but now, since September 2026, I'm tackling it head-on as a full-time venture.

I'm passionate about connecting with all learners, especially those who are neurodivergent or struggle to connect with the classic "teach to the test" classroom. I meet students where they're at, find the gaps, and scaffold them up to confidence in a topic before we move on. I also work with students to understand their math anxiety, where it comes from, and strategies to succeed.

I work with all ages, from numeracy skills for the little ones through to calculus for the seniors. I'm online with families anywhere globally, and in person around the Central and South Okanagan, and portions of the Shuswap. Some families book me once when a test is coming. Some book me on a recurring schedule. Both are completely fine.

A few things you might not know about me

Fun fact 1

I don't drink any caffeine. It gives me panic attacks! But I love the taste of coffee so I'll take decaf all day long.

Fun fact 2

After high school, I fully considered auditioning at Disney to become a perform as a singing princess.

Fun fact 3

I'd happily teach all levels of algebra any time of day.

Fun fact 4

I graduated from a self-directed high school, so I personally never had the classic high school math experience!

Fun fact 5

Alongside my teaching history, I have a solid business acumen and have spent many years working in supply chain.

Got a question about how the sessions work?
