William Academy Scarborough

Great experience in IELTS test. Spacious and clean IELTS testing centre.

A lot of fun in the summer camp, I look forward to next year's summer camp!

Good Chinese private school, customer service is best only if you speak Mandarin or Cantonese but otherwise I highly recommend this private school.

This is a great private school. I graduated from this school last year and I am currently in Mcmaster University studying Mathematics. Thank so much for the help i got from this school.

Showed up 15 minutes early for test and they said I was too late. Was not impressed at losing $200, drove from Oshawa, Ontario.

The school offers courses to students when the teachers are not secured. Especially for the summer semester. They actually change the students’ marks by asking them to redo certain assignments after the course was already over. Their files on students are changed to fit their promise; which is as long as you pay enough, you can get the grade you want. They have even asked teachers to help write assignments for the students. They should be inspected again, by surprise, so the real ability of the students and the school can be assessed.

William's Academy is a great educational institution without a doubt. Their institution has changed my mindset towards my academic career and mental well-being drastically by the kind hearten principle there. However, there is one major flaw in their summer program. My parents did not pay high tuition simply so that I could get a biased mark but rather so I could be given a second chance to redo a summer course that I did not revive a high grade on and get a high grade through my hard work and preservative. The grades that I received were beyond an accurate representation of my academic abilities. Grades are essential without a doubt as it can make or break your chances of admission when applying to a secondary institution, but what is more important is the academic character of a student. Take, for example, Queen's University and their commerce program. Take this with a grain of salt, but I believe that once you hit the 87% average, the admission team pays more attention towards your Personal Statement of Experience and Supplementary Information. This means that extra curriculum activities and leadership roles within these roles are what makes a student stand out and thus can change the mindset of a student to have bigger ambitions and dreams, as it did for me when I choose not to give up on my academic career when I got a low mark in Grade 12 English and enroll in William's Academy to improve that mark. Students need to know how to do an assignment correctly because if they fall into this mindset where they feel that minimal effort will result in an excellent result, the students are in for a dangerous surprise once they reach post-secondary and life in general. I am not saying that the teacher should stop supporting their students, but there needs to be a sense of reality, a wake-up call for the students. A more honest connection between a student and teacher should be implanted because it is better that mistakes are made at an early age such as high school and corrected rather than later in life where instead of grades that are lowered, more important things in the future such as financial stability and the person's reliability are lost. Behavior that should have been addressed in high school to prevent such a toxic mindset.

Dont take IELTS here! You will definitely lose your mark on the speaking test because of the Asian examiner. Please choose another location to have the test.
