Ontario Virtual School Reviews 

Great experience and super quick support from teachers and admin. The course was just as rigorous as when I took it in-class, and it was nice to be able to do it at my own pace.

I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to take CPW4U through OVS. This was my first time experiencing education through OVS, and it was nothing but amazing. The structure of the course, content, and assignments were easy to access and complete; my instructor was extremely efficient with marking and returning assignments, usually within 1-2 days. Now, because of OVS, I will be able to go into Grade 12 this September while already having a U credit! Thank you, OVS, will definitely take again.

I would 100% recommend their services. The teachers are very accommodating, they always have quick response times and they always give feedback and assignments get graded very fast. I personally did two courses with OVS and they give discounts at checkpoints like completing a course final or midterm. They have scholarships for students both intentional and domestic, while this wasn’t a priority for me this might be for other people. The admin was always accommodating and helped me as a grade 12 student adjust and understand how the OUAC system worked. Overall great service and great people.

Taking MHF4U with OVS was a really great experience. The course was well organized and the lessons made difficult concepts much easier to understand. I chose to take it through OVS instead of my regular day school because I liked the flexibility of working at my own pace. My teacher was very responsive and always answered questions quickly, and all of my evaluations were marked fast (within 2-3 days). The practice tests and course resources were also very useful when preparing for assessments. The platform was easy to use and everything, including posting marks to OUAC, went smoothly. OVS has helped me get the grades I needed to get into universities I didn't think I was able to get into.

Since my start, and now completion of the course, I have recommended multiple friends to take OVS for the same course. Every friend that took my recommendation has said that they enjoy the teaching style and self paced aspects of the course a lot, and have regretted their choice to take math through OVS. Thank you OVS!

The course I took was advanced functions. OVS was overall a great experience, tests were marked in a timely manner, teacher was respectful, responded quickly, learning material was really strong and prepared me for the tests well. Tests were also well put together, overall the experience was enjoyable.

The lessons at OVS School were very helpful and very detailed, making it easy to understand the material. The teacher was really nice and she replied within 24 hours, and if it was during office hours she responded in just about half an hour. I really appreciated the support and guidance throughout my learning. Highly recommend!

OVS was a very good experience for me, being able to take an extra course outside of school asynchronous was super helpful

Best online school to take your time on learning and you’ll for sure to do good on your test. Teacher were really good and very helpful

Taking OVS helped me understand and succeed better as a student. I recommend this to all high school students!! They have amazing teachers too and respond very quickly!

I took MCR3U (Grade 11 University Math) with Ontario Virtual School, and my experience was honestly excellent. The best part of taking a course with OVS was the flexibility, it allowed me to work at my own pace while still staying organized and on track. The course layout was very clear, and everything I needed was easy to access.

I chose to take this course with OVS instead of my regular day school because I wanted a more structured online environment that would let me focus and improve my understanding of the material. That decision definitely paid off. The teacher was very responsive to my questions and marked evaluations in a timely manner, which really helped me stay motivated and confident.

I made frequent use of the practice tests, exams, and online resources provided, and they were extremely helpful in preparing me for assessments. The support from the school office and student success team was also great whenever I had a question, I received quick and helpful responses.

Overall, OVS provided a smooth and positive e-learning experience, and I was able to finish the course with a 97%, which I’m very proud of. I would definitely recommend Ontario Virtual School to students looking for a flexible, supportive, and well-organized online learning option.

Great experience, staff course load and organization was great. Would definitely recommend.

Honestly I really liked the setup, my teachers response time was so fast, I would get all my assignments marked within a day or two. The instructions were always self explanatory and I understood the content well with the online lessons.

Very organized layout, helpful resources and very nice staff and administration. Overall great experience, will be using again.

The best part of taking ENG4U on line was the flexibility and my ability to set my own pace and work around other commitments. My school offered summer online, but that ENG4U course was only 3 weeks long - so I knew I would not really retain much knowledge. OVS' ENG4U was structured into units that built on one another with a summative that incorporated all the course work and really doubled as an exam review. The teacher for my OVS course was so amazing at responding and providing help/ guidance. He also marks assignments and test extremely fast and provided great feedback.

I had a great experience taking SCH4U (Grade 12 Chemistry) with Ontario Virtual School. The best part of OVS was how well-structured and organized the course was — everything was clear, accessible, and easy to follow, which made learning independently much less stressful.

I chose to take this course with OVS instead of my regular day school because I wanted flexibility and a strong online learning environment, and OVS definitely delivered. The teacher was very responsive to questions and marked assignments and evaluations promptly, which really helped me stay on track.

I made frequent use of the practice tests, exams, and online resources provided, and they were extremely helpful in preparing me for assessments. The content was thorough and aligned well with expectations.

The school office and student success team were also helpful and professional whenever I needed support. Overall, OVS provided a smooth, efficient, and positive e-learning experience, and I would highly recommend it to students looking to succeed in online courses.

My experience at OVS was great. I did Gr12 Advanced Functions and the course layout was so good. I was able to understand the important concepts due to the fact that I had the freedom to work on my own pace and the lessons provided were extremely useful and simple to follow. The homework and practice tests were so helpful as they reflected concepts that were on the assessments. To add on, my teacher was great at responding to emails and was such a quick marker. Overall, my time at OVS was great and I highly recommended it.

My experience with OVS was great! I took Grade 11 Biology to be able to do my Gr12 Bio in my day school. The teacher replied very quickly, and the course material was easy to go through and understand. I also got it to be submitted for OUAC in time.

During my time taking Advanced Functions at OVS my teacher was extremely helpful and encouraging. The website and learning methods made understanding this difficult course feel much easier and truly helped my confidence grow when learning math. I really enjoyed the self pace concept of OVS and how my teacher marked all my tests within less than 24 hours and provided the best feedback. Thank you OVS!

I loved ovs it helped me gain a better understanding of working on my own and allowed me to work at my pace the teachers were kind and very helpful and the work felt less like a chore and more rewarding once I fully understood the course content

The teachers were really helpful and made sure to mark work and reply to emails as soon as possible. The content posted explains everything in detail as well as the vertical labs which helped put things into a real world perspective. Definitely recommend!
