Etobicoke Driving School

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience with my driving instructor Awan! Very patient, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made sure I felt confident and prepared me at every step. He was very calm and had clear instructions which helped me stay relaxed and focused, and I passed my driving test on the first attempt! Highly recommend Awan’s services to anyone looking for a professional, supportive, and skilled instructor!

Fantastic experience: I see some bad reviews but Nadia is the only driving instructor invested in helping me pass my G2 and full G. I passed my G road test on the first try. Yes, she is blunt the way some Ukrainians and Eastern European people are, but her methods and instructions helped me pass my G, and are ingrained in me to this day. I sat in the back of her car while she taught some really low IQ drivers and to me she is very patient, more patient than I would be with certain people. She had a flexible schedule and practiced the exam routes with me until I got it right. I have been with many instructors and she's the only one who I felt cared enough to help me pass. So don't listen to the bad reviews... As long as you try hard, use your brain and are receptive to her instructions you will pass.

Fantastic experience: My son had a great experience with his instructor Baha. The registration / payment process is a bit unusual … they are a “low tech” company … but worth it for a good price compared to some competitors. Thanks!

Negative experience: If you like to be yelled at, or if you like to have your class at a spot convenient for the instructor, not you, then book a class with Nadia. She charged two hours for a lesson needed to show the exam area but said she didn't know the area and started teaching parking. On the highway she was rude and unprofessional, screamed at a senior person, so my father failed the exam of course. When I called her to ask why the exam was fail, she couldn't care less, didn't even ask at the test centre. As usual screamed into the phone while having another lesson. Disgusting behavior.

Positive experience: Overall, I had a great experience with Etobicoke Driving School. At first, I felt like I didn’t need driving school. After the first lesson I had with Shakil, I realized I did. I had the pleasure of learning from Shakil and John. Although I only had John for one lesson, he was terrific. Shakil was also very great. Both instructors were calm when I drove and pointed everything I either did right or wrong. Even when on the road, I was able to be myself and engage in conversation with both Shakil and John. However, I must point out one thing. Book your road test date based on the schedule of your instructor. Even though it’s “Etobicoke Driving School”, they’ll drive to as far as Norfolk County if you want to do your test there. Other than that, great quality service. I do recommend driving school. You may say you don’t need it, but you really do. -James
