Key Education transformed my academic journey! Their expert tutors taught me how to write compelling essays--structuring arguments, refining style, and strengthening clarity. They also guided my university applications: personal statement, interview prep, and strategy. Thanks to their support, I got into my dream school. Highly recommended for essays and admission success!

My experience with Key has been nothing but pleasant. The team is well-organized, knowledgeable, and professional. The principal is not only well-connected in the community but also very approachable when it comes to answering our questions. The team provided great guidance and assistance with my family’s application. I highly recommend them!

I highly recommend Key to students applying for post secondary education. The team at key are passionate and knowledgeable. They support students’ passion and encourages their students to develop beyond expectations. Working with key for post secondary helped me a lot with time management and building a profile. Will definitely come back to work with Key for my siblings!

Personal and unbiased review. Our child got into our private school of choice, without any help from Key, and now I feel comfortable sharing my feelings regarding this place. I do not recommend it.

We learned about these types of companies from the private school applications, where some ask a question at the bottom of whether a third party company was involved in the application. I didn't realize such services exist. Indeed, Key caters to a specific population, that perhaps do not know much about Canada, Vancouver or speaking English, but are happy to pay to get their child into their perceived private school of choice. I met people at Key (who were kind and being honest), that said they "wrote the essays for the application".

This place is founded by a private school graduate, who I guess decided to make a business on exploiting that specific population who can pay for private school but may not understand how to fill applications, or speak english.

I found Key to be very passive, and not focused on my child at all.

We had specific goals for our child- to give her the skills and experience to excel at private school assessments, which are brief and obviously important to your child's success. We wanted our daughter to speak like she would at home, assertive, confidently.
This sounded exactly what their "unlock your soft skills" class should have been, and how it was described to us.

For one class I waited in the seating area and peeked in. The students were just doing individual play. There did not appear to be any focus on basics, like answering politely, making eye contact, speaking well (what they described as soft skills).

We only attended a couple of classes and stopped going. We didn't even bother them for a refund as I'm sure there are none, given their business model.

After one class, the instructor told me my 4 year old was having trouble with addition. She showed me a work sheet where there were arithmetic ( like 5 + 4 = ____). Not even like 5 applies and 4 apples makes how many?

I have no idea where they base their curriculum from. This place seems like an absolute money grab.

Personally, seeing Key and what services they offer left a very sour taste in my mouth. At their info session, they talk about how they can email the right person at the right time, or follow up on clients behalf. Of course, their full service is them writing an entire application. I was particularly scared when the owner said in one session, that Key is different to other such "education" services one might have heard of, in that they don't ask for donations for the schools for example.

Again, this paints a picture that if you are rich enough, and don't speak English (maybe this is actually helpful- based on the client examples they provide in their info session), then you pay Key, and they will mold your kid to speak proper English, and write a proper essay for you (possible side donations, I don't know)- and boom, your kid can get into a top school.

Again, for their courses "unlock your soft skills" it was completely irrelevant, expensive, weak resources, not impressive teachers, and doesn't seem pertinent to the assessment process at all.

My final point is that I called Key to speak with Ben when we had three offers, to get his opinion on the schools. The least he could do is give me 5 minutes of his time after paying for courses we didn't even use or bother requesting a refund. His secretary told me he was busy and would call me back shortly. Took my number. No call back
Then at the end of the day, I get a email saying that I had called to inquire about classes and they sent their price list and class offerings. Zero attention to detail. Completely unimpressed with Key, and it really paints the picture that private school admissions probably have a lot of messy things happening in the background from these types of companies looking to profit off of certain types of parents.

My experience with KEY has been nothing short of amazing. They spent alot of time to understand our child and our family before making recommendations. The consultants were highly knowledgeable about child development and different private schools, and able to answer many of our questions. The whole process with school selection/application was thoughtful, intelligent, and strategic. Suggestions and recommendations were always clearly explained, and delivered in a professional and timely manner. KEY also provided classes for my child, which were well structured and suitable for his age and developmental stage. My child loved KEY's classes. They also have parenting classes that offered wonderful information for families with young children. All in all we are happy with our experience with KEY. Thank you!

The team at Key Education is incredibly professional and dedicated. Throughout the entire application process, their staff demonstrated diligence and expertise, which provided us with invaluable support. We received personalized guidance for every step of the application process, ensuring us to be well-prepared for the school interviews and assessments. Thanks to Key Education’s expertise, our daughter was accepted into our top-choice private school, and we couldn’t be more satisfied. We’re glad we chose Key Education from the start, and we highly recommend them to anyone navigating the private school application process!

I first started working with Bryan to prep for school interviews before entering Grade 1. What I didn't realize was that Bryan and his company would become central to helping me with my College Apps. I have a great connection with Bryan and he and his team worked with me until the last second of college prep. Bryan helped me layout my college application plan and follow through with it.

Thank you Bryan for everything!

非常好的体验，我们与key的合作时间不长，短短3到4个月，但是取得了非常好的效果。孩子在key的培训课程得到了非常有针对性的培训，各方面得到了很大的提高，为私校面试和测试做了非常充足的准备。在key的帮助下，我们最终获得了两所顶私的offer，选择了最适合我们家庭和孩子的一个offer，短短3个月，4个月不到的培训，使我们家庭最终收获满意的顶私offer，很感谢key education的帮助，也足以体现key education的专业度和效率。
