About Travis
Hello! I am an Alberta Certified Teacher based in Okotoks. I know that for many students, staring at a textbook or a screen can feel overwhelming. My job is to turn that anxiety into confidence.
As a current online school teacher, I am an expert at connecting with students remotely. I use a "concept-first" approach—we talk through the problems, draw them out on a digital whiteboard, and solve them together step-by-step. I am patient, encouraging, and I know the Alberta curriculum inside and out.
My Background: I hold a B.Sc. from Mount Royal University and a B.Ed. from St. Mary's University. I have a passion for working one-on-one with students to help them have those "Aha!" moments.
I am currently accepting students for:
Junior High Math & Science
High School Math, Chemistry, and Physics
Send me a message, and let's get you back on track!

My methodology is built on the belief that students learn Math and Science best by doing, not just watching. As an Alberta Certified Teacher specializing in remote education, I use an interactive 'Guided Practice' approach.
We start by breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps. Then, we immediately apply that knowledge to practice problems together. I use a professional digital whiteboard that allows the student to see exactly what I am writing in real-time, just like I was sitting next to them. This creates an active learning environment where we 'talk through' the logic of every step, ensuring the student understands the why behind the answer, not just the formula.
Each session is tailored to the student's immediate needs, but generally follows this successful structure:
The Check-In (5 mins): We review any difficult homework questions or confusing topics from their school week to set a clear goal for the session.
Concept Clarity (15 mins): I use visual aids and real-world examples to explain the core concept we are tackling, filling in any gaps in their foundational knowledge.
Collaborative Problem Solving (30 mins): This is the core of the lesson. We work through problems ranging from basic to Diploma-level difficulty. I use the 'I do, We do, You do' technique to gradually build their confidence.
Review & Next Steps (10 mins): We summarize the key takeaways and I assign optional practice questions to reinforce what we learned."
Unlike many tutors who are still students themselves, I am a professionally employed Alberta Certified Teacher currently teaching at an online school. This means:
I know the Online Environment: I don't just struggle through Zoom; I teach remotely for a living. I have the professional technology and strategies to make online learning engaging and seamless.
I know the Alberta Curriculum: I know exactly what the Program of Studies requires and how Diploma exams are marked. I don't guess what your student needs to know; I teach it every day.
Qualified Expert: I hold a Bachelor of Science (General Science) from Mount Royal University and a Bachelor of Education from St. Mary's University. I combine deep subject knowledge with professional pedagogical training.
My lessons are designed for Alberta students who want clear, stress-free guidance to improve their grades or prepare for exams. I specialize in:
Junior High (Grades 7-9): General Math and Science. Building a strong foundation before high school.
High School Math: Math 10C, Math 20-1/-2/-3, and Math 30-1/-2/-3.
High School Science: Science 10, Science 20/30, Chemistry 20/30, and Physics 20/30.
Whether you are a homeschooling family looking for a primary instructor, or a public school student looking for Diploma prep and homework support, I can adapt my teaching to your goals.
