iWay Driving School

Fantastic experience: We are very pleased with our experience with Brett at iWay, our Daughter passed her roadtest and is on her way to being a safe and confident driver. Brett gave great, constructive feedback that made all the difference to getting her on the road. We will definitely use iWay again when it is time to get her class 5.

Fantastic experience: Excellent highly recommended. Very thorough in helping pass first time. Must also be the most affordable, very happy

Negative experience: Bad school unless you want your students/kids to road rage. Seen the driver instructor flipping out at traffic and making the student uncomfortable.

Fantastic experience: Brett is a great driving instructor and gave our daughter the knowledge and confidence to be a safe and aware driver. He was punctual, respectful and patient and we really appreciate the job he did. He took his time and reviewed the lesson to make sure everything was clear, often going into his personal time.

Fantastic experience: Iway driving school helped with my daughters confidence. and gave her the structure she needed to pass her road test Bret is easy to talk to and soft spoken that adds to the willingness to learn I highly recommend iway driving lessons.

Fantastic experience: Thank you Brett for showing our daughter how to drive safely!! You are a very patient person to be able to drive safely with her. She got her N on the 1st try! We are very thankful to you Brett. I highly recommend IWay Driving school.

Fantastic experience: Brett was an amazing instructor!

Fantastic experience: My daughter had a great experience and passed on her first try. Very impressed with the instruction.

Fantastic experience: Brett is an amazing instructor who clearly demonstrates care for his students and does his best to help them to prepare for their driving tests. Thanks for your patience!

Fantastic experience: Brett was very knowledgeable and I passed on my first try! He was super patient when I was learning. He was always calm and reassuring which helped me build confidence on the road!

Fantastic experience: Excellent, thanks so much for all the help & being able to pay equal payments made it so much easier. Passing first time is a great feeling.

Fantastic experience: Brett has taught both of our daughters how to drive. His patience and calm demeaner make it an enjoyable experience. Thank you for setting them up to succeed.

Negative experience: We hired iWay to teach my daughter last year, and while she learned some basic driving skills, the instructor flipped off and yelled at another driver. While my daughter thought this was pretty funny, I don’t think it’s appropriate to essentially teach road raging to an impressionable young driver. As you will see from the response below - Brett does not take responsibility for his actions. This absolutely DID happen, and we were reluctant to say anything at the time for fear of not getting our money back, or having him take it out on our young driver. Further to Brett's second response to my comment (after deleting his first one), I am NOT the driver of a Silver/Grey Range Rover, nor did I make any comment on Facebook. I have no idea what you are referring to. This is another example of Brett not taking responsibility for his actions, and being defensive. I do not want someone so defensive teaching my teenager to drive. Brett - you are showing your true colours by accusing me of something that I have not done. I am not even from White Rock. Why are you trying to find my private home address? Your comment has red flags all over it and is a perfect example of your personality and how you teach driving. If you feel the need to further bully me, I would be happy to take my complaint to the Better Business Bureau. November 2024: Brett has now removed his comments and removed his mention of the Range Rover. I am entitled to share my experience as a consumer, your unprofessional reaction to that is appalling.

Fantastic experience: Brett is a great instructor . I learned a lot of great skills and tips . Thank you Brett !

Fantastic experience: My daughter was well prepared and she passed her road test on the first try. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Brett was a great driving instructor for both of our sons. He got them both to pass their test first try, which is why we paid for a professional. but he communicated with us parents very clearly on what we need to work on with our boys to ensure success. The boys always looked forward to their lesson with Brett. We referred their cousins to him, and both of them also passed first try. We also referred one other young man to Brett, who had failed his test after using Valley Driving School, and he also passed after Brett worked with him. Plain and simple, Brett got the job done and was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve used Brett’s services for lessons for 2 kids and have been very pleased with the results. Both passed their N tests on the first go!

Fantastic experience: I can say that Brett was patient, kind, empathetic, and a fantastic instructor. I went into the driving lessons a totally different person then I am now. I have gained confidence in my driving skills, and now the ability to call myself a licenced driver. The cost is lower then most places, and the service was better. I call that true class. Thanks for the Independence. Megan Ryan Shared From Facebook

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Brett, and my daughter passed!

Fantastic experience: Had my N test today and passed first try. Brett is very knowledgeable and knows what all the little things that can make a big difference on your road test. You can tell he genuinely wants you to pass and I wouldn’t have passed without his help.

Fantastic experience: Brett was very knowledgable about the course. He went over how many lessons my child needed and didn't push any extra ones. It was a very reasonable price for the the service. I would recommend Brett to anyone that is wanting a driving school.

Fantastic experience: Excellent driving coach!

Fantastic experience: Brett is super accommodating to your schedule. Every person on here who has had a bad review either blames him for their own faults or is plain ignorant. Brett is there to help you succeed even when you don’t think you can. I think more people need to keep in mind that you have to be able to accept constructive criticism in order to drive the correct way (as the law states). If you just listen to Brett, you WILL succeed. I passed my N on my first try because Brett was patient with me and is definitely not afraid to tell you when you’re doing something wrong. He never once yelled at me though. If you want to succeed and you love Brits, you’re going to love Brett. British humour and all.

Fantastic experience: Brett is super accommodating with scheduling, excellent pricing on multiple lessons, and ensure each student has full confidence. He was there on test day to prep my daughter before the test and was there to congratulate her after.

Negative experience: I had one lesson with Brett and honestly I would not recommend for a number of reasons first his car was very messy and smelled bad. Second, he was constantly putting his foot on the break and grabbing the wheel so I couldn’t get a feel for how his car worked. Third, his teaching style is very demeaning and rude maybe he was in a bad mood that day but I didn’t appreciate it. He seemed very knowledgeable so maybe his teaching style just wasn’t for me. Side note I’ve done a lot of research and his prices are unmatched I couldn’t find a better deal which is why I’m dissapointed that it didn’t work out. :(

Fantastic experience: I passed my N road test first time. Brett is an experienced teacher, very thorough and knowledgeable. His knowledge of the road test area, ICBC rules/regulations and protocols is very helpful. I found this very valuable. I would recommend him to other students as he instructed me on areas to improve and helped with areas that needed correction. Thank you Brett for help!

Fantastic experience: Great teacher, great prices, my son passed first time~! Christine

Fantastic experience: Brett is an amazing instructor, very flexible and makes learning to drive easy! Passed N test on my first try !

Negative experience: Yells at you for the smallest mistakes. Makes driving a terrible experience. I started lessons with him wanting to learn to drive, left with a fear of driving and feelings of not want to ever drive again

Fantastic experience: Brett’s lessons really helped me gain confidence on the road, which I was in need of. I was so nervous with my driving skill but with his instructing I felt myself become more comfortable with the roads, even after the first lesson. Passed my N test on the first try thanks to him! Really recommend this driving school! Thank you:)

Fantastic experience: Brett's a great instructor I would recommend him to anyone. Gives good instruction and gives helpful advise if you make a mistake.

Fantastic experience: I started out scared of driving, from the first lesson we were on the road working on safe driving. Would recommend to everyone.

Negative experience: Just never stops yelling at you and just makes you never want to drive again

Fantastic experience: I don't understand all the people who are bashing Brett, you all need to calm down and learn to lighten up a bit. Brett is such an amazing teacher. He will not sugar coat anything, which when learning how to drive is a good thing. If I am doing poorly, I want to know so that I do not put other people's lives or my own for that matter, at risk. Brett has been a driving instructor for many many years, and anyone who decides to not trust his judgement is ludicrous. You are paying HIM to teach YOU how to drive, so how dare some people think that they know better than him. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND BRETT TO EVERYONE!

Fantastic experience: Brett is excellent ! He is very patient and taught my sons the “right” way to drive They both passed their first try thanks to Brett. He was Very flexible with scheduling drive times and reasonably priced. Thanks Brett

Negative experience: Edit in response to Brett's response: Mr. Hill, if you have issues with the idea that I drove in the States you are more than welcome to reach out to my father on your own time to confirm things for yourself, he is not the kind of person who would lie for me by the way. My mother certainly knew that I practiced driving regularly with my father, but she was not always aware of where we would drive, so it’s hardly surprising if she doesn’t recall. If you are so distrustful of me, then perhaps I made the right call to discontinue your services. Furthermore, your version of events is hardly the whole story. First, my mother was the one who reached out to you initially because she wanted to discuss the driving test with you, it had nothing to do with your issues with me until you brought it up. Second, I already explained to you, in our own texts, that I only texted you at 2:30am because I was working late one night, and I considered the matter urgent enough to do so. This only happened ONCE, and I apologized to you when you expressed disapproval at it. Third, I only acted “rude and condescending” after you kept yelling at me throughout multiple lessons making me extremely nervous and irritated. I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you this, but if you act impolitely towards someone you shouldn’t be surprised when they return the favor. Fourth, I find it very confusing that you would suggest a Chinese speaking instructor even though I was born in Canada and that I have only ever been fluent in English. Hi Izabella If your experiences with Brett were truly good as you say, then I can only congratulate you on that. But if you thoroughly read the negative reviews that go into detail about their issues with him, not just on google but on other sites as well, I wouldn't be surprised if you found it even a bit harder to be sympathetic for him. I may not be a driving instructor, but I have worked in customer service for a healthy amount of years, and he has behaved in ways that I have seen people get fired for.

Fantastic experience: Brett is an excellent driving instructor, I found his enthusiasm to be contagious. He was always very helpful and was very mindful of the comments he made. His teaching skills are well above my expectations (usually set higher than achievable), and his knowledge of driving and the laws and rules are exceptional. With only 7 lessons I passed my divers licence road exam on the first attempt. I would recommend Brett without any reservations to anyone that is learning how to drive. Tanya

Fantastic experience: I passed from an "L" to my "N", and all because of Brett at iWay Driving School. Brett, thank you for your patience, and working with me on my work schedule to fit driving lessons in. Very good teacher, very good lesson packages and pricing as well. Highly recommend you contact Brett for all your driving lesson needs. Call you when it's time to go for passing from my "N" to a regular driver. Thanks again for all your great advise. Hi I recently passed my class 5 test with Brett's fantastic lessons. I am so happy that I found his services and I would totally suggest him to anyone who wants to learn how to drive. Excellent teacher. Excellent prices. Fantastic car. Thanks so much for getting me on the road and driving Brett.

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test today- all thanks to Brett and his amazing driving lessons! Brett is extremely patient and has a unique way of teaching how to drive safely! I enjoyed all my lessons and now I can say I am a confident and safe driver! Thanku again Brett ! You are awesome!

Fantastic experience: So happy with Brett!!! I took lessons for months leading up to my road test and he is not only an excellent instructor but very patient + makes you feel totally comfortable!! Plus the packages are totally affordable! Wouldn't have passed my test without him :)

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Iway Driving school. I pass my test verry good teacher, Brett will help you pass the test. Thank you so much

Fantastic experience: I was able to pass my N test the first time with Brett's honest critique throughout our lessons. He offered a rigorous enforcement of consistent safe driving and has helped mold my skills as a safe driver. :) He's also a great guy to talk to! Thanks iWay Driving School!
