    • I recently learned how to drive, after years of waiting because I was too scared. I had the pleasure of having Rob as my instructor. He’s very kind, chill and knowledgeable. Thank you so much Rob for helping me face my fears and build my confidence. I had a great experience!!

      Rob Savarie was an excellent driving instructor. As someone who has had a fear, a nervous driver and put off driving for so long, I learned a lot from the lessons from the first time i started to the last lesson. He has taught me every aspect of driving in every helpful way.

      Walter is the best driving instructor. He makes you feel really comfortable on the road and if you are doing something you’re not supposed to he will tell you in a nice way.

    • Very good class! Would recommend 100%. Very good teacher.

      Logan Degn Avatar Logan D.

      I had a really nice instructor. She was patient and didn’t get mad if I had done something wrong but instead she would calmly correct my mistake to prevent it from happening again. She also gave clear instructions on where to turn and how to properly perform certain driving manoeuvres to help prepare me for my driving test.

      Jenn is an awesome driving instructor. She has a lot of experience, therefore, she is always very careful and cautious while the student is driving. She will patiently help you to improve your driving skills and provide you plenty of extra information which will not only help you for your drive test but the rest of your life.
