Words aren't enough to thank Mr. Navin. He has supported me throughout my entire application process and has been an outstanding mentor to me. He has been firm when I needed to pull up my socks up and understanding and supportive whenever I've needed him. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to be mentored by such an inspiring role model and am sure the connection with Mr Navin will be one that is everlasting.

Throughout my high school journey, Navin has been a pillar of support and strength, continuously helping me navigate through this difficult time. Navin has not only supported me academically, but he has pushed me to be the best version of myself and has given me someone other than my family to rely on in any situation - both inside and outside the classroom. Through our many calls and WhatsApp conversations, Navin has been able to truly get through to me and see me not only as my grades but as a person. Whether this is by making me see the importance of a positive attitude or helping me have a good work-life balance. His continuous support has truly inspired me and made me realise that he was always in my corner throughout this stressful time, and he will always be there anytime I need him. I only hope in the future to be able to pass the help and impact he had on me to other students. Though he doesn’t love being continuously thanked, I owe my academic prosperity, dedication and success both in and out of the classroom to him for continuously believing in me and always being realistic but optimistic. Thank you, Navin!

Working with Mr. Valrani was like learning how to ride a bicycle for the first time, he would give me the freedom to move forward, nudging and stabilizing me at just the right moments to ensure I achieved my goals and had a holistic learning experience along the way. He is a treasure trove of knowledge and insights into the university application process. He helped me see the bigger picture and encouraged me to be more ambitious in my university applications. His help with the essays allowed me to refine my ideas without taking away from the originality, and his motivation after early rejections helped me stay determined throughout the process. His extensive experience with talented students and his systematic approach to connecting 'where I am' to 'where I want to be' played a pivotal role in me getting into a great university.

I approached Navin and his team to support me with the daunting process of applying for a Masters degree and I could not recommend them enough. Their vast knowledge and expertise of the US college admissions process and support they offered was instrumental in helping me secure a place at my dream graduate school. I really value the support I received during the process of writing my personal statement. Their efforts in helping me weave together my experiences to tell a story and present myself in the best possible manner helped me formulate a great personal statement. Navin’s positive attitude, encouragement and hands-on approach made this stressful process a lot easier and I could not thank him enough. His expertise and extensive knowledge makes him the perfect counsellor and mentor for students of all ages applying to any degree.

Navin was simply amazing. The time, effort, and commitment he gave to me as his mentee was incomparable. He made the stressful admissions process that much easier. He created a relaxed environment with just the right level of a push to help me strive to be the best I could while not overbearing or overwhelming me. He takes his time to understand the student and what is best for his student, gives personalized advice and mentoring, and guided me down a path that suited me perfectly. He played an integral role in my current success, and I could not recommend him more.
