Drivewise Woodstock: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Not many people understand how anxiety can affect a person, but Jon certainly does and he gets you through it. My goal for 2024 was to start driving, but I didn't think my anxiety and fear would let me fulfill that dream. My instructor, Jon, literally worked a miracle on me. Two weeks ago I had my first lesson, full of fears and insecurities, feeling that driving was something very distant to me, and today, I'm here with my g2 in hand, because Jon not only helped me with my anxiety and fear, but also helped me to get my goal fulfilled before the end of the year! I can't thank him enough for all his help, patience and professionalism! He taught me way more than driving, he coached me in a way no one ever could! I know I still have a lot to learn, but now everything seems possible! If you choose this school, you’re in very good hands!
Hi Roumaine, Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so glad that we could help and be part of your journey. Feel free to reach out anytime you have a driving related question: we are always here for you. Congratulations on your amazing accomplishment! Kristine, Jon and Team
Fantastic experience: Thank you very much Vijay Chand! A very good driving instructor in Woodstock. Explains very clearly, shows in practice, patient. A very good and clean modern car for exams and driving lessons. I took several lessons before the exam. The instructor drove me along the track where the exam will be. Explained where at what speed you need to drive, what the examiner pays attention to, how to behave better, what to do and what not to do. I passed my full g right away and without mistakes. Thank you Vijay. I recommend this driving school and this driving instructor!
Fantastic experience: I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the high level of professionalism, the well-organized learning process, and the comfortable conditions provided at your driving school DriveWise Woodstock. I would especially like to highlight the excellent work of the driving instructor, Jonathan Brown. His patience, attentiveness, and professional approach made the learning process not only effective but also enjoyable. Thanks to his detailed explanations and practical advice, I now feel confident behind the wheel and have a solid understanding of safe driving principles. Your team truly deserves the highest praise, as you not only teach driving skills but also instill responsibility and a culture of safety on the road. Thank you sincerely for the opportunity to be part of such a wonderful learning environment.

We deeply appreciate you entrusting us with such an important task and we will always be here should she need anything else on her driving journey. Thank you again for choosing us! It means a lot to both my team and me. Kind regards, Kristine
Negative experience: I would like you to stop doing training on Grace street in Woodstock please MTO has been contacted.
Hi Daniel, The MTO allows novice drivers to practice on any public road unless there is a bylaw stating that driver training is not permitted (or the road is closed for any reason, of course.) Drivewise abides by all laws and bylaws. Have a great day! Kristine
Fantastic experience: John was my driving instructor! He was so amazing in every way. Teaching how to back up park, parallel park, and even get your 3 point turns looking “on point”. Overall Drivewise is an amazing place to go that helps you learn the best information and drive like a pro! If you ever need a place to go, go to Drivewise !!!!
Fantastic experience: John Brown. What an incredible teacher, mentor, individual in general. He taught me how to think about driving conceptually, visually through the use of small model props and challenged me to think critically on the road. He took me from a novice G1 level driver with low confidence to passing my G2 and becoming an experienced driver with high confidence!!! If you are looking to gain the skills and confidence necessary to pass your G2 road test I can recommend no one other than John. John if you see this thank you soo soo much sir!!!
Hi Mehmood, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. Words like yours mean a lot - especially to Jonathan. We are very glad that your experience with us was a positive one and that you are now driving with enthusiasm and confidence. It was our pleasure to be part of your journey. We wish you nothing but the best in the years ahead! Kind regards, Kristine and Jonathan

Fantastic experience: Had great experience with John at Drive wise. He was patient and very understanding to my nervousness of being in a severe car accident with no fault of my own. Took his time with giving great advice, was approachable and made time with my busy schedule. I successfully upgraded to my G.first try. He prepared me right before my G test. Highly recommend, especially is you’re a nervous; anxious person like myself. John is the best choice in Woodstock. Can’t thank him enough

Thank you for the review we truly appreciate it !!
Fantastic experience: Drivewise is an amazing driving school to go to. I wish I could give more than 5 stars honestly. Johnthan was an amazing driving instructor, I took my 10 hours in car with him as well as taking a lesson before my G test. Both times I passed first attempt! Johnthan was very knowledgeable, outgoing and helpful. I would recommend DriveWise to anyone!
Thank you very much your review is greatly appreciated!!
Fantastic experience: Great experience driving and learning with Jonathan. By the end of the 10 sessions, I was very confident that I mastered the driving skills. Came out of the G2 driving test with flying colours and passed on the first attempt. I totally recommend DriveWise and Jonathan.
Thank you Matthew, congratulations on your G2 !!
Fantastic experience: Jonathan was my driving instructor during my road lessons. He is an amazing teacher who gives great feedback and pointers while on the road. When I went in for my G2 road test I felt calm, relaxed and confident knowing I had a teacher who had me well prepared for it. I would recommend Drivewise to anyone who is taking drivers education.
Hi Ethan, thank you so much for the great review !!
Fantastic experience: If you are new to driving or if you've had a previously unpleasant driving experiences, Drivewise Woodstock is the place for you. The Drivewise Woodstock team is wonderful and it was super fortunate that I had the opportunity to learn through them. I had Jon as my instructor and let me tell you, I made him work lol at least it definitely felt that way. He was super patient and incredibly positive but also very honest which I'll always appreciate. Learning to drive for me was hard and the pandemic made it even harder but Jon made it a great experience. Some days I'd get in his car for a lesson feeling very discouraged but everytime I would leave feeling much much better and like I was that much closer to my G2. I don't think anyone could find a better instructor anywhere else! Due to his extensive driving knowledge and our combined efforts I was able to take my G2 test and pass today! :) Thanks Jon~
Hi Andrea, thank you for the great review !!

Hi Ethan thanks so very much for the Review !!
Fantastic experience: I wish I could give 6 stars, what an excellent program. Such amazing people, especially Jon. I wanna thank him for teaching me, and not only that, but building a strong relationship with me. He is such a fun, nice, outgoing guy, and is extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend drive wise to everyone. Such an excellent program, great price, super nice people, and a really good experience. Thank you to everyone at drive wise! I hope I see you around on the road Jon!
Hello Gregory, thanks so much for the great review!!
Fantastic experience: Jonathan was an amazing instructor, was extremely friendly and helpful with driving. Would definitely recommend to anyone that does Driver's Ed.
Hi Sam, thanks so much for the awesome review !!
Fantastic experience: Truly amazing instructor, Jonathan prepared me for my G road test. Jon coached me from maneuvers to 401 driving with respect and found different ways of explaining concepts to make sure I understood and thus I felt completely confident in what I was doing during my test. If you are a G2 driver nervous to obtain your G, contact Jon. Lessons were not expensive at all, seriously, it will be a smart inversion if you want to obtain your licence with flying colours.

Fantastic experience: Best driving school around, wonderful instructors and amazing owners!!
Negative experience: Go with MP or Young Drivers if you are looking to take drivers ed in Woodstock. I'm not sure of all the instructors but the one I had was extremely distracting, I think maybe he needed a friend because he would talk constantly about his personal life while I was trying to focus and learn. Don't waste your time or money here.
