Ontario Virtual School (Online School)

PLEASE READ! Would give a 0 if I could. If your looking for professionalism do not come to this school. The staff are as useful as fast food workers. I complained to the staff regarding that there was a mistake in the teachers marking on the tests. When I talked to the teacher first she was very difficult to communicate with, so I went and talked to the staff and they were also very reluctant. All I asked for was another teacher to mark it, or to redo. They were also uncooperative in that sense. So I asked to talk to the Principal and I wrote him and email. He answered "here is my VP go talk to him in that matters. " He was as useful as a glass hammer. So I emailed the VP and asked if he could call me. Here he comes and I give him the issue and you know what he says "I dont wanna hear it" "excuse me are you a VP" I said, yes I was as astonished as you. He said what do you want me to do I said can I rewrite it or have another teacher mark it. He said yes you can rewrite in person "I dont know why its called a virtual school if I have to do it in person". I said I cant do that I live in another city. He said I can give you a refund. " I was speechless this guy said he wants to give me a refund the day before midterms are due for university's and my course is a pre req. " Absolutely absurd I said to my self "well I guess you gotta accept the loss" but I don't stop there I said "Im going to complain to the Ministry of Education" his tone of voice and the words he was speaking was unacceptable. He said and listen to this part you think your talking to a Vice principal "Remember Im the one who could ruin your career here" "What" I said "Are you even a VP' and I closed the phone. Ten minutes later some person called me from OVS and gave me a 3 percent boost. Which I was absolutely fine cause I calculated there was 2-3% error in the teachers marking. But there was no need to do all that drama with the Admin. I am writing this 1 yr after I wrote this course cause I was absolutely frightened because I thought he was genuinely going to do that. But im not scared anymore here I am telling my story. Do I recommend this school No. Is it cheaper than other schools Yes. But is it worth the $100-$200 saving for the Headaches No. DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL.

Will highly recommend OVS because if you want to achieve you dream, the journey starts with the OVS. I applied to 5 of the nursing programs, and got accepted at 4 along with my other post - graduates diploma. Highly suggest OVS to all the readers.

Staff is horrible. VP is not empathetic. My teacher in OVS was not fair at grading my work. I transferred from a very nice teacher to another teacher who failed me poorly in the course after having worked so much on the class. Now my Hope's of pursuing A new hobby is gone in high school as I now have to repay for such an expensive Program. Please do not bring your students into this virtual school. 0/10. Find any other private school with supportive staff, staff was bot even nice a little bit.

This is an amazing place for students like me who needs to catch up credits when it’s necessary. I finish all my English 11 course within one month and get a satisfied score, which would certainly benefit my applications in the future. I would recommend everyone who need to join this place.

I took Communications Technology (TGJ3M) with Ontario Virtual School. It was my first course with OVS, but I found the website very easy to navigate and I liked the rewards for logging on & completing assignments, which kept me motivated.

The lessons were well planned and articulated, and the assignments offered a good challenge and applied the learning from the unit. I really liked that there were no deadlines and I got to complete the course on my own time, but I still had the option to set deadlines for myself using the Course Planner.

Overall, I would definitely recommend OVS for anyone looking for an online learning option!

This past year, I completed MCR3U with OVS and I had an overwhelmingly positive experience. I had originally planned to take this course at my day school but due to an error made by administration, I was unable to do so. Initially, I had some concerns completing such a content heavy course on my own. However, I found that the lessons broke down concepts phenomenally. Also, the extra resources provided helped me support my own learning. This method of learning was quite manageable because I could ensure I fully understood a topic before moving on.

The teacher I had was very organized and he always marked assessments and responded to emails within 24 hours. The lessons provided were clear, concise and simple to comprehend. Additionally, the office staff were very kind and understanding. Overall, I would highly recommend OVS to any students looking to further their learning.

The teacher was extremely helpful and i was able to reach her quickly for help. Assignments were marked quickly and I was always able to get detailed feedback on my assignments before submitting them. Overall, enjoyed the course very much.

I loved OVS because they provided:
- 7 days a week 12 hours a day support from admin team
- fast response time from teachers and office staff
- resources in the course provided practise tests and exams with answers
- marks were quickly forwarded to OUAC/OCAS and day school
- offering many courses that are not running in many day schools

I recently completed the SCH4U (grade 12 chemistry) course at Ontario Virtual School (OVS) and I am extremely pleased with my experience. The level of support from the admin team was outstanding, with 7-day, 12-hour availability and prompt responses. The resources provided, including practice tests and exams with answers, were invaluable in preparing for assessments. I was impressed by the efficient handling of marks, which were quickly forwarded to OUAC and my day school. OVS also offers a wide range of courses not commonly found in traditional schools. Overall, OVS has exceeded my expectations, I ended with a very high mark.and I highly recommend it for a successful e-learning journey.

I was enrolled in SBI4U which is the grade 12 biology course and I can honestly say that had a really great experience with OVS. The entire platform was organized very well making everything easy to navigate. There were plenty of resources that I liked such as having mini quizzes at the end of lessons to help summarize what I learned after each one. Once I had completed all the content within a unit, practice quizzes were made available to see how much I knew from the course and what I needed to review making preparation for tests less stressful. My teacher was always really fast to respond to any questions I had and always provided great clarification. I was very concerned with how my grades would be sent out to the universities that I had applied to but the OVS staff made the whole process simple and sent everything out as soon as possible. If you are looking for an online school with great teachers and staff who are quick to help out and respond, an abundance provided resources, an organized easy to navigate platform, and some courses not offered at other schools, OVS is a great school that I would highly recommend.

This course was so easy to do and you were able to learn at your own pace which was amazing. It doesn't take long to get the hang of using the website. I wish that I had done more of my classes online. If you like working at your own pace this is definitely a great choice. My teacher marked things and gave notes back in less than 24 hours usually.

I enrolled in ENG4U and got a final mark of 93%. My teacher, Mr. Ford, was extremely effective. I was very satisfied with how quick my teacher returned my mark for my assignments with a thorough feedback. The course was neatly structured and the website user interface is easy to get used to. I would highly recommend to enroll in a course in this online school.

I was hesitant in taking a mandatory course which is Calculus and Vectors MCV4U through OVS, however with the constant support from the teachers I was able to get through the coursework quickly and with ease. The response time from the teachers is excellent and they make learning a new subject easy.

I had a fantastic experience at Ontario Virtual School, where I enrolled for the Advanced Functions - MHF4U. Right from the start, I had access to all the course material and practice resources. The lessons were comprehensive yet easy to grasp, and there was an abundance of practice material with provided answers for verification. The teachers were kind and always available to assist students, responding promptly to my emails. I was impressed with the quick turnaround time for marking and uploading my grades to OUAC. The availability of admin support around the clock was a great advantage. What I loved the most was the flexibility to work at my own pace and schedule tests at convenient times.

I took MCV4U and I really enjoyed my learning experience. The teachers responded very quickly, there were so many learning resources, and the lessons were very thorough. There are also so many courses available to enroll in that aren't available at many day schools. I would highly recommend OVS.

I did Calculus and vectors with OVS and ended with a 94. This was all because of the great resources that were provided to me, such as the the practice tests and quizzes. Also I got extremely fast replies from my teacher when it came to giving my test marks back or just general questions regarding the course. I’ve also never had any issues with mark processing as my marks went straight to OUAC. Overall, I had a great experience and recommend OVS for all course credits!

I recently completed Chemistry - SCH4U and had a great experience with this school. Since it is an online school, it might seem to be hard to manage time and organize materials alone. However, there is much support from the admin team and fast response from teachers and office staff within a few hours. Also, it only took less than three months to complete a course as there were many resources in the course, such as homework, practice tests and exams with answers. I already recommended this school to my friend, and we both had a great experience with OVS. Although you have to pay to attend a course at this school, compared to other cheaper online schools, this is way better and more supportive. You can actually learn and study.

I took 6 grade 12 university level courses full time with OVS and I do not regret it. All of the lessons were very clear and easy to follow, the teachers were always professional and extremely friendly, support was available whenever I needed it, and I am now going to university to pursue my goals thanks to OVS. I highly recommend taking courses here.

I had an amazing experience taking SES4U with Ms Cuzner. I would highly recommend and it was a large part of me being able to get into my preferred university programs. Marks were sent to OUAC in a very fast and timely manner.

I recently had the opportunity to enroll in Ontario Virtual School, and I must say, it has been an exceptional learning experience. The support and resources provided by this institution are truly commendable. Here's why I highly recommend Ontario Virtual School:

The admin team deserves special recognition for their outstanding commitment to student success. I was thrilled to discover that they offer support seven days a week, providing assistance for a remarkable 12 hours a day. Whether it was a simple query or a complex issue, the admin team was always there, promptly addressing my concerns and ensuring a smooth learning process.

Moreover, the response time from both teachers and office staff was impressively fast. Whenever I reached out with questions or needed guidance, I received timely and helpful responses. It was reassuring to know that I had a dedicated team of professionals ready to assist me at any moment.

One aspect that truly sets Ontario Virtual School apart is the abundance of resources provided within the courses. The inclusion of practice tests and exams, complete with detailed answers, significantly enhanced my understanding and preparation. These resources not only helped me grasp the course material effectively but also provided valuable insight into the examination format, leading to improved performance.

Additionally, I was impressed by how efficiently Ontario Virtual School forwarded my marks to OUAC my day school.
