"Our daughters have been learning with Michael Mavin for one year, and we are thrilled with their progress. I knew he'd be a great teacher when I heard his "teacher voice"; he really knows how to engage, communicate with, and inspire young learners. Moreover, his B.Ed from OISE means he understands Ontario curriculum, and how to supplement it for student success. The Mavin Tutoring curriculum is systematic and he comes to every lesson well-prepared. But mostly each lesson is fun--reading and math games and competitions mean that our daughters enjoy this learning!"

"Hugely boosted my English skills, especially in writing - within a year my English mark went from an 84 to a 92."

"While I had no tutoring with Michael Mavin I was doing poorly on my English and hanging around the 60% average; however, after almost a year of tutoring with Michael Mavin I began to go above my class average into the high 90%. Before Mavin tutoring I was struggling in properly completing my English assignments. I constantly had grammar mistakes and hardly even knew how to write in correct paragraph format. Things quickly changed when Michael Mavin in a short amount of time greatly educated me and pulled me up into the 75% and shortly after into my high 90%."

"To this review, I would like to add a few more comments. Michael Mavin has one of the greatest ways of teaching. 1. He is always engaging the student in fun conversation and work. 2. Always knows how to explain complex content for the student. 3. He can always sense if a student does not understand the content. 4. Always knows how to improve the quality of students in weak areas (i.e. formatting paragraphs properly was a weakness I had). 5. This list can go on forever. Overall, I am grateful for the perfect and great education that I constantly receive from Michael Mavin. It has opened hallways of new opportunities for me, which I did not see before. If you have many problems with English, then I strongly recommend that you do Mavin Tutoring."

"Michael has been such a great help to me over the years I've spent working with him. Many times, he has helped me clear away confusing roadblocks I have faced while on the path to completing my assignments and reaching my potential. He points out things to me that I do not realize, especially when it comes to grammar. He is so friendly and positive, that at times he seems less like a teacher and more like a helpful friend that one can rely on."

"I have been a client of Mavin tutoring from grade 9 to grade 12, and I am very happy with my choice. I have had Michael for all of my English courses, and one of his recommended tutors for my math courses. I am yet to be disappointed, they are always reliable, on time, and very helpful and knowledgeable with their appropriate subjects. "Overall, I am very happy with the service provided, and would recommend Mavin Tutoring to any body who needs a bit of help in school."

Michael helped my son though later elementary and all though highschool ( mostly English). He was professional and very likable. We had tried a couple of other tutors before with less success. Thanks Michael! Aaron is starting college this fall!

"Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value Michael has been tutoring our eldest child since early fall. Within the first few weeks we noticed substantial changes in our son's literacy skills. In fact his school teacher even noted that she was seeing improvement. This has only continued. One of the biggest changes we've noticed recently is in his confidence level. He used to hate sitting to read with us or out loud in front of classmates. He now does it enthusiastically. Furthermore, our son really enjoys working with Michael. He is organized and professional yet flexible and fun with kids. I highly recommend Michael and the Mavin Tutoring program."
