Negative experience: Owner closed up business after I had paid and won’t send a refund. Do the right thing and refund every customer you took money from but didn’t provide driving education & instruction for.

Fantastic experience: This school is amazing, Brandon is a pronominal instructor and extremely helpful, I got my G2 with 0 mistakes all thanks to him. I highly recommend you go out with them once or twice before your G2 test or even your full G.

Fantastic experience: In my experience, the service at Grand River Driving School is exceptional! Not only were they very informative and gave great advice throughout the entire process (from the very first enquiry to the day of my test), they also go the extra mile in their customer service. This definitely helps to relieve some anxiety and provide assurance. Their prices were reasonable and I feel like I got top value for what I spent. My driving instructor, Brandon, was professional, used effective teaching methods and I can tell he is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in what he does. I got my G on my first attempt.

Negative experience: Just now Today at 3:55pm March 20, 2021 at Saginaw parkway I saw this school's car fail to stop at stop sign. If instructor doesn't obey traffic sign what will they teach others

We teach safety and I will investigate that driving instructor and I deal with him.

Fantastic experience: I wholeheartedly recommend Grand River Driving School. He is tough but fair teacher that truly cares about his students and makes sure they know exactly where they are at and how to improve. You know exactly where you stand especially when you improve. I don't know how he keeps everyone's successes so clear in his mind. I found driving to be stressful to learn and he knows exactly how to take you of of that mindset and teach you not only how to drive well but how to love driving. I am currently finishing up my licence in record time and I honestly wasn't sure if I could, now I drive on the highway like a pro. Though I am writing this review I am also recommending this school as someone who's entire extended family has used Rick and actively encourages others to as well. Please ignore the negative comments and see this is the driving school you need to be the best driver possible.

Amanda Govan 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing! I had the best experience with Rick. He helped me get my G2 last year and now I finally have my G! I was so anxious about driving and it was something I put off for years. Under his tutelage I was able to get my G2 and G on my first attempt! 10/10 Recommend!

Fantastic experience: Overall Rick is a lovely instructor. He helps students who are nervous, and scared, become more self confident, and less anxious. He is a good friend, and fun to be around. It helps to have an instructor who makes you feel comfortable, and at ease while learning behind the wheel. After trying a few driving schools, I found this school (learning with Rick) to be the must genuine, and student oriented school. The relationship developed was positive, and I was treated with the utmost respect, and like family. Thank you Rick for all the encouragement.

Bolormaa Boldbaatar 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took a classroom training with 10-hour driving practice with them. My driving skill and road safety knowledge dramatically improved as a result. They did go extra miles to ensure I pass my test with confidence. I also was nervous to drive on highways. My driving teacher helped me overcome my fear with empathy. I would highly recommend Grand River driving school for anyone who wants to get their license with greater confidence and support.

Fantastic experience: I learned with Rick from my G1 with no driving experience, all throughout until getting my full G licence. He is an amazing, very kind and very patient gentleman! I highly recommend! I passed both G2 and G with no problems. :) Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Grand River Driving School is an excellent driving school. Rick is a very nice man who is easy to talk to, he is always quick with a joke and to make you laugh. The small class size was very helpful for 1 on 1 learning. Rick shows care and compassion and he is very down to earth. He treats everyone with respect and most importantly teaches you the skills you need, reviews them and builds off of them. If you want a driving school that realky cares, that really wants to teach you saftey and that teaches you how to be a better driver, Grand River Driving School is for you.
