Parent and Student Reviews of International Schools in Ontario
- We have been parents here at Fairfax Christian for the past three years. We now have a child in each level of the school, lower, middle and high school. The school kept our children safe and in school during the tumultuous time of the pandemic and we will be forever grateful. We have been blessed with teachers who are attentive and care about the character and education of our children. The challenging curriculum, diverse student population and a Christian education will keep our family at Fairfax Christian.Written April 22, 2024
- Tom, Greene’s alumnus: “I am an alumnus of Greene’s, and have been a doctor for 20 years. I have a lot to thanks Greene’s and the tutors for, having gone from an E grade in June to a B in the same November! As I recall I had an hour per week physics, as well as the occasional practical, and then a lot of homework in between. This worked well for me.” (2011)Written January 19, 2024
- Guardian of Student: “I don’t think he could have been happier anywhere else in the country. He was in the right place with the right people who adjusted to his needs every single time. You stepped in at every point and made the difference he needed.” (2019)Written January 19, 2024
- Willow, Greene’s alumna: “I was sceptical about starting in January and not September but I actually drastically improved grades in that short time. The one-to-one allows you to get through the relevant content without covering things that aren’t useful so it’s possible to achieve a lot in a few months.” (2020)Written January 19, 2024
- Konstantin, Greene’s student: “At Greene’s, I have one-to-one tutorials. It’s really cool because all of the attention from tutors goes straight to you. That’s amazing because any question that you have, you can get the answer to. In one tutorial you can study a new topic and in another you can say “I’m not really clear about this topic” and you can take another look at it.” (2023)Written January 19, 2024
- Parent of Oliver, Greene’s alumnus: “The staff are extremely professional and Greene’s have provided a first-class service throughout.” (2023)Written January 19, 2024
- Johnnie, Greene’s alumnus and transfer student: “I now feel better placed to take my exams than I did this time last year, partly due to the way Greene’s has bolstered my academic confidence and changed my attitude towards examinations, making them seem a far more achievable feat.” (2023)Written January 19, 2024
- Pradnya, Greene’s alumna: “Despite being a new experience, the tutorial style was a great match due to its personalised approach: I received detailed feedback on assignments, trial examinations, and tutorials. I was excited to attend every tutorial, knowing that my tutors shared the same enthusiasm for the subject and had extensive knowledge that enabled in-depth conversations.” (2023)Written January 19, 2024
- Pedro Perino, youngest driver to compete in the European Le Mans Series and Greene’s student: “Greene’s helps me to drive better; it enables me to do things at my own pace. I am able to focus and divide my time between studying and racing – having the option to do face-to-face or online lessons really helps me emotionally and academically.” (2023)Written January 19, 2024
- Lucia, who received A*A*A grades in her recent A levels at Greene’s, recalls her academic experience: “I would like to thank my tutors and in particular my Personal Tutor from Greene’s, who motivated, inspired, and kept me on track – even when I suddenly decided to apply to university with a UCAS deadline of just one week! Greene’s helped me achieve academic success by getting the results to enable me to enrol in the best university of Economics and Business in Portugal. And helped guide me academically through a difficult period of my life.” (2022)Written January 19, 2024

Over the years, the strong ethos of building a community and continually trying to work together has allowed us to develop strong relationships with the staff and parents.Written October 5, 2023
- I’ve had a remarkable learning experience at BSB, which has fulfilled my educational needs by providing an exuberant environment to excel in, and has nurtured me into who I am today.
