(5) Overall experience

Prep Academy has become a constant tool to access and become part of our success each academic year. The service and quality of tutors that Kim Podivinsky has provided my daughter Stella is excellent and unsurpassed in our experience with tutoring throughout Stella's school years. Knowing we have Prep Academy on 'speed dial,' whether as sought the night before a math test suddenly seemed daunting, or to work through a difficult concept in science over a five-week period - we now have the confidence to know we will never be stuck with a learning gap we can't close and close masterfully. We can't say enough good things about Kim and her tutors and business.

(5) Reason for choosing the program

We were referred to Kim through our community in Oakville. The buzz in Oakville is that Prep Academy is the best. Well worth the investment, there were no hidden costs. The help my daughter has received from Prep Academy has been absolutely priceless. For her to be confident and thriving in math after hating it and struggling is everything!! Her attitude and marks have changed permanently. Prep Academy is very good value and worth every penny!

(5) Program quality and activities

The program housed excellent tutors for math and science, subjects my daughter has needed help with. The tutors were most capable at engaging a child they didn't know personally over the internet and teaching various concepts very effectively even though completely removed from full-time teachers and my daughters school. My daughter's marks in many cases turned into 80s when they were 70s or lower prior.

(5) Skills and growth

My daughter Stella has significantly increased her Math skills and confidence due to the incredible tutors and tutoring she has taken advantage of from Prep Academy. Grades 8 and 9 are important formative math years and we have turned to Prep Academy every time my daughter has been at all lacking in proficiency at any math concepts not nailed down at school.

(5) Staff/Instructors/Counsellors

Kim Podivinsky, owner of Prep Academy, Oakville is always available or gets back to me extremely fast. She is bright empathetic and quickly gets a read on your children and what type of tutor is best to service their learning style. She has found great matches for my daughter who have tutored her for many months and also found tutors last-minute to prepare Stella for tests within hours. Kim is always incredibly professional and efficient and she has become someone I turn to as an academic and trusted authority on schooling and my daughter's best interests in such matters.

(5) Advice and tips

Kim Podivinsky and the Oakville Prep Academy division, are beyond what I would ever hope for in terms of service ...and especially results. I would not think twice about hiring Kim and her incredible roster of tutors to help your child's confidence and proficiency in any subject. We are absolutely thrilled with all the help they have given my daughter, and her great marks and knowledge as a result.
