Negative experience: The owner is very weird. Sabbir is his name and he made it so difficult for me to get my g2. He told me “gas isn’t free” implying I have to pay for it. The driving instructor Yusuf would give me 2 hour lessons so he can complete the 10 hours quicker. Very unprofessional people and scammers.

His car is an up to date 2022 Toyota with a backing camera that makes parking way less stressful. I 100% recommend Aminul I learned everything I needed to be a successful driver. I PASSED ON MY FIRST TRY with compliments from the driving test examiner! The test was easy after practicing with Aminul! He was always smiling, always happy and always patient. I believe he is the best instructor in the GTA. I HIGHLY recommend you go to him! He will build your confidence in being safe on the road. He has 22 years of professional driving knowledge that he will share with you!

Fantastic experience: With the assistance of Leaside Driving Academy and the instructor Mahabub Alam, I was able to begin instruction with little to no prior driving experience...and, all in rather short order, was also able to gain enough confidence in my abilities to pass my G2 road test. There remained rather consistent levels of communication, as well as invaluable knowledge (maneuvers, techniques, suggestions, corrections) imparted, both throughout the entire process. Any errors were pointed out promptly AND explained in detail -- any questions I had were answered, just the same. I could easily recommend this school without a second thought, regardless of your experience level.

Fantastic experience: Despite getting off to a bit of a rocky start with regards to some communications issues and having to cancel and rebook lessons due to bad weather (snow storms), I am definitely pleased with the overall service. In particular, Mahabub Alam, who was my son's driving instructor, went above and beyond on the day of his road test to make sure that everything went smoothly and he was well prepared. This great preparation and organized approach resulted in my son successfully passing his G2 on his first try (in the pouring rain, no less). My daughter turns 16 in less than a month and we will definitely be reaching out again for her in car driving lessons. Thank you!

Having no experience, he walked me through each step thoroughly and calmly, assisting me with my every need. I just finished my last class and i now feel confident enough to be on the road by myself. My session was only 5 classes, 2 hours each and it was amazing how much i learned in such a short period of time. Truly amazed! I highly recommend him for anyone who comes!

Fantastic experience: I passed my G1 test today, as someone who usually doesn't test well, Aminul took me out an hour early prior to the test to refresh my memory on the usful methods they use to make things like parking and overall driving easier.

I took Aman as my instructor after a failure in my first attempt, which was a result of the deeply instilled habits of back-home driving, and he helped me to get rid of them. Aman has all the qualities of a superb driving instructor. He is always punctual, cool minded, patient, and has a very positive and encouraging attitude. Imparting with good driving techniques, he is always vigilant during the sessions and keeps checking your intentions; your actions and your errors, and even where you see while you drive. In fact, this is what the examiners also check during the test. He made me realize my shortcomings and to overcome them, due to which I passed my G2 in the first attempt with him. Apart from that, Aman is a very gentle and sincere person. When in the field many are greedy after your money, I found him very considerate, advising me for only the appropriate number of classes I needed, and making his best efforts to give me back for each and every cent I paid. I would like to highly recommend him.

Negative experience: DO NOT GO HERE!! While Siva was a good instructor, the school itself has some major issues. I paid for the gold package 9 Months AGO (which includes the use of the school car for THE G2 test) and 1 HOUR before the G2 test the school calls saying I OWE them 100 EXTRA DOLLARS to use the car because their prices have gone up from 9 months ago. Obviously I didn't have 100 dollars on me and they THREATENED TO NOT LET ME USE THE CAR. At this point I am very stressed considering the test is 1 HOUR AWAY!! Now they are threatening not to give me my certificate of completion (which helps with insurance) the whole process was a huge load of stress right before my test. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
