Ontario Virtual School Reviews 204

Teachers were very responsive and the asynchronous learning style made it easy to juggle with my other school work. I had Mr. Ford who is a dedicated teacher and wishes the best for his students by helping promote success.
What you see is what you get - the process is very straightforward with no hidden fees.

My teacher responded to my emails quickly and everything was submitted to OUAC on time and smoothly. The whole process was seamless, which was so important to me as a grade 12 student applying to universities. Lessons are clear and informative with tons of support available to answer questions and doubts. There were no hidden fees. The tests had a variety of questions such as multiple choice, word problems, and graphing. Finished with a 97 in grade 12 advanced functions and would highly recommend ovs!

I highly recommend Ontario Virtual School. I just finished taking MCV4U (Calculus and vectors) and had an amazing experience. The course materials and lessons are exceptionally high quality and theyre well structured. There are no hidden fees at all, and the assessments offer a great variety rather than just relying on multiple choice answers.

What stood out to me the most was the support system. the admin team processed my report cards very quickly, and my teacher was incredibly responsive, always returning marked work and replying to emails quickly and considerately. Thank you for a great semester, OVS!

I have taken 3 courses with OVS so far and it is easy to say that this is the best online option ever for all students!! The teachers are very helpful and even if it’s online, they really help you throughout the course. The formatting of the lessons are super easy to understand and the website itself is very easy to navigate. Everything gets uploaded to OUAC within hours and any questions you may have get answered within the same day!! I truly cannot hype them enough. It was one of the best experiences of my high school years. I would choose OVS over and over again if I had to!! I wanted to mention Mrs. Da Cruz specifically who was my teacher for Grade 12. Challenge and Change in Society course. She is incredible in every aspect and is genuinely the best teacher! Her thoughtful feedbacks
and clear answers made the course so much better!! I am very glad to have taken a place in her class. I am forever grateful to the OVS team and Mrs. Da Cruz.

I had a great experience with Ontario Virtual School while taking HFA4U. The course was well organized, the lessons were clear, and the assessments were varied and engaging.

The teachers and admin staff were very responsive, and marked work was returned quickly with helpful feedback. The entire process, from registration to receiving my final report card, was smooth and straightforward, with no hidden fees.

I would definitely recommend OVS to students looking for a flexible and supportive online learning experience.

I took Grade 12 Biology (SBI4U-18) with OVS and I had a positive experience. The lessons were easy to follow and had detailed information, although I found that some of the questions on the test were not taught in the lessons. There were helpful resources such as practice questions and tests. While they greatly aided my comprehension and preparation for tests, I found the written responses in the answer keys lacked detail.
My teacher, Ms. Miller, was wonderful and would respond to my emails quickly with well-written responses. In addition, my assignments were returned quickly and the teacher always included thorough feedback.

OVS was an amazing opportunity for me because it allowed me to take improve my knowledge and overall average in Advanced Functions. I would definitely recommend taking courses on OVS because it helps organize a students time for efficiently. The teachers and administration are very kind and helpful and that factor definitely made my experience even better!

The lessons are super detailed and very easy to follow, the assignments given for each unit had offered lots of opportunities to test strengths, so that I was prepared for the tests. Admin was very supportive and report card processing was very quick. Email response from teachers was great and in a timely manner along with the marking. Would highly recommend.

I took english grade 12 university level this semester, I found the course interesting and challenging, and easy to navigate. My teacher was incredibly helpful, and responsive. I highly recommend OVS

I took OVS advanced functions, and though ideally, math should be taken in person, I had a scheduling conflict at my school that prevented me from doing so. I signed up with OVS so I could get the credit that I needed for my university. I found the lessons I was doing helpful and easy to understand. It helps that there are practice quizzes at the end of most lessons, and if I got something wrong, I would go back and review the lesson! I also found it helpful that I could see a couple of practice tests before completing a Unit test, so I could get a sense of what the questions were like. There are no hidden fees; you get what you pay for! Not to mention that you have a teacher on standby to answer any questions you might have via email, or even scheduling one-on-one tutoring with your teacher, which I found to be amazing that there could be so much support! Don't hesitate to contact OVS at their phone number if you have any questions. I definitely have called them a bunch of times when I had questions, and they were always clear and efficient! I would also say, if you are taking this for university, make sure you pay attention to the deadlines universities have for midterms and exams. OVS will remind you that they have deadlines to mark everything so it reaches OUAC and your school on time.
To receive your tests back, it will take around 1-3 days, and the same applies to an exam! Overall, I loved taking advanced functions through OVS, and I am so glad I did! Thank you to the OVS team and my teacher for being so helpful!

Being able to do the work whenever was the most help full pair of ovs. Another thing I really loved was the draft feed back part, if there were mistakes you didn't see yourself the teacher can fix it before the final submission instead of having someone else to proofread. I can't say there is anything bad about ovs, just make sure if you are in grade 12 you are able to your ouac mark on there before the deadline.

I had a great experience overall when I took SCH4U (Grade 12 Chemistry). The course was well organized and easy to follow, and I was able to work at my own pace. There were no hidden fees, and the registration process was also straightforward.

One of the highlights of the course was my teacher, Ms. Chevalier. She was very responsive to questions, provided detailed and helpful feedback on assignments and tests, marked work, and responded to emails very quickly. Her feedback helped me understand my mistakes and improve on future tests and labs.

I also liked the variety of assessments, including the mini quizzes at the end of lessons and the labs throughout the course, instead of it all being multiple choice. My final mark was processed very quickly, and the admin support was efficient whenever I needed help. Overall, 10/10, I would definitely recommend OVS to anyone looking to take a course online. It was a great experience from start to finish. Good luck to you all considering it!

Great lessons great experience and organized lessons

Super simple and great way to learn and catch up on missing credits

Took ICS4U here and the teacher was amazing, and the whole process was just smoothing with no problems at any point! Grading, answering and everything was done super quickly (within 3 days!) and the staff and teachers are super kind! I loved how it had never felt stressful and was able to help me manage my time with my other in person courses! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone because this was an absolutely amazing addition to my high school journey!

I recently completed the International Business (BBB4M) course with OVS, and it was a great experience from start to finish. The learning materials and video lessons were high-quality, clear, and easy to follow, making complex global business concepts simple to understand.

The assessments had a great variety, it wasn't just repetitive multiple-choice tests. This allowed me to actually apply what I was learning through interesting assignments. There were absolutely no hidden fees and everything was transparent right from registration.

The administrative support was seamless, especially when it came to processing my report cards and getting them sent out quickly. My teacher was also incredibly reliable, always returning marked work with helpful feedback and responding to my emails within 24 hours. I highly recommend OVS if you need a flexible, well-structured online course!

OVS gave me an opportunity to improve both my knowledge and my mark. Each lessons was easy to follow, and each test/exam is fair and completely based on the curriculum! I took advanced functions after having a tough time with it in class, and I truly believe that being able to do it at my own pace gave me the opportunity to be successful .

I completed the MCV4U course through Ontario Virtual School, and it was one of the best academic decisions I have made. OVS gave me the flexibility to balance my responsibilities outside of school while still delivering a thorough and engaging learning experience comparable to an in-person classroom. The course structure, resources, and lessons allowed me to strengthen both my understanding of calculus and my independent learning skills.

What stood out most was the level of support provided by the OVS staff and administration. They were consistently responsive, professional, and helpful whenever I had questions or concerns. In particular, their assistance with OUAC-related matters made the process smooth and stress-free, which gave me confidence throughout the course. Overall, my experience with OVS was extremely positive, and I would highly recommend it to other students looking for a flexible and supportive learning environment.

My experience with OVS was wonderful! I had an amazing time navigating through the website as it is full with resources and easily accessible. I had the pleasure of having Mr. Ford as my teacher who was always right on time with marking my work and replying to any of my questions through emails. I would recommend the grade 12 university English course to anyone who aspires to have a good experience and a high mark. Thank you OVS!!

I took ENG4U through OVS for university. I was looking to maintain a high 90 average for my midterms. The layout of the course makes it easy for you to go through lessons, access resources, and submit work. The teachers are very kind and helpful. They will work with you to ensure you reach your desired goal. Overall, great experience. -Dhovnikkhaa Sutha
