I hope more new drivers come your way, and get to feel the great feeling of freedom. To drive confident in a safe manner in beautiful Victoria B.C.

Fantastic experience: Jon is an incredible teacher. He is calm, super knowledgeable and I feel very comfortable on the road by myself now. The vehicle he provides is very modern and made it even easier to learn.

Fantastic experience: Made everything easy, passed my test first time with no problems

Fantastic experience: I'm an adult learner and just got my N! I was very fearful of driving and nervous to try again after a previous bad experience. Jon was very chill, professional and a great teacher. He has tons of experience and I really appreciate his teaching method to break things down into steps so my anxious self can learn to manage and remain calm. I highly recommend lessons from Drive Train! Especially the road test package so you can ease some stress by doing a warm up in the testing area first.

Fantastic experience: I passed my N!!! I had already failed once after purchasing and completing a lessons package with another school in town. I came to Jon as an anxious, older driver and he whipped me into shape. I feel safe and confident on the road, ready to drive my little boy around town. My examiner on the test even said my parallel parking was perfect. Thank you Jon!

Fantastic experience: Jon is highly professional and patience! His complete training course makes me comfortable being on the road and performing maneuvers. Got my N today, all went well as expected. Will definitely take Jon's road test package again for a class 5 test

Fantastic experience: Jon is a great and dedicated teacher. I got plenty of good tips that I would have never imagined. Not only does he help to increase your safety and confidence on the road, but he also helps you to be successful on the day of your exam. For those like me who are international, Jon is very patient and helps you understand everything you need to know to be a good driver in Canada. PS. I took classes and exam over the pandemic, and I can certify that there is nothing more sanitized than Jon's car.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and professional teacher. Made me feel super comfertable and safe! Easy to schedule time for training sessions and even booked the N test for me.

Fantastic experience: Jon is an amazing teacher, he really likes to instill safe habits into you, by using method teaching. His wisdoms were so welcome, slow is pro, breathe, keep it simple, and be zen. Driving is like a dance. Thank you Jon for your incredible knowledge.

Fantastic experience: Jon is a very knowledgeable instructor. He is patient and makes it a fun experience to put your driving skills into practice. Strongly recommend even if you have driving experience, you can brush up your skills with Drivetrain.ca and be ready for your road test. Thanks again Jon!

Fantastic experience: Jon at Drive Train did a fabulous job preparing my daughter for her road test. Professional, friendly, my daughter really liked Jon and she passed on her first try at the exam after he corrected all the bad habits Dad had taught her. :-) I highly recommend any parent of a teen driver to contract Jon’s services. Five stars, for sure.

Fantastic experience: I was apprehensive about getting behind the wheel in Victoria. I grew up, and have lived in small towns my whole life, I needed more guidance on taking control of the wheel in a city. I am so glad I chose Jon. He is the epitome of being 100% attentiv, assertive and proactive in learning how to anticipate any situation on the road. I encourage you to support this company as he's been in business for 15 years, and makes you feel (or tells you how to make happen) a professional, defensive, capable driver out of anyone.

Fantastic experience: Jon is super professional, clinical, and will help you pass no matter what. Reasonable rates as well! Definitely Victoria's #1 instructor. If you're someone who needs some confidence building prep then Jon's your man.

Fantastic experience: Stop looking for other driving schools. THIS is the BEST one there is. Jon is extremely professional, tons of experience, friendly, patient, and safe. Super well communicating, punctual and a great sense of humour. His approach and methods make it simple and easy to learn, think of an instructor that will make you a confident driver!! And Trust me, you will! I would give more stars, but google only allows 5. Thanks Jon and drivetrain.ca for trusting me and encouraging me all the way!! Now I am a proud holder of a class 5 BC License feeling safe on the road and those around me.

Fantastic experience: Jon is a great teacher!!! I recommend anyone to go see Jon for driving lessons. I had so much anxiety and refused to drive for so long. Within 3 weeks of lessons with Jon I was over my fear of driving & passed my N test.

Fantastic experience: Jon is a great teacher! I was an extremely nervous driver but now I drive confidently and safely. I don't think I would ever have passed my driving test without his help.

Fantastic experience: Jon is an outstanding driving instructor! I was surprised at how quickly he figured out what I needed (I wasn't even sure). I felt relaxed, confident and safe the whole time. Jon explained everything I needed to hear in a calm and friendly way. He even offered to inspect a car I ended up buying! It's been 5 months since I first contacted Jon and I feel completely comfortable behind the wheel and super confident in my driving skills. I owe him a huge debt of gratitude for the confidence he was able to build in such a short time. If you want the best, Jon's your man!
