Echo Driving School / 金书驾校

Fantastic experience: I did not finish my driving course in this school but I went and tried there practice courses for road test and there driving instructor are excellent and very patient and answers questions that you need to know and gave out tips on how to observe and and evaluate the situation on the road I recommend this school for their prices other schools wont mention will rip you.

Negative experience: The reception is very rude and not polite. I don't want to take any course at this school completely because of this very rude lady at reception.

Fantastic experience: Mr Yang is very patient. The best driving instructor for anxious student

Fantastic experience: I recommend Echo driving school, the teachers here are nice and patient!

Fantastic experience: Best driving school in Montreal!! Ms Jiang teaches very good the theory and Mr Yang is an amazing instructor! With his technical skills, I passed my road test at my first try. Thank you both!!!

Fantastic experience: The instructors and coach were very nice and I had a satisfying experience. The staff are all very patient and friendly, all have a lot of experience in teaching. I passed all my exams one shot because of their professionalism. A really nice choice for driving school

Negative experience: 服务态度挺差的。并且到考试临前不管你开的怎样，都会一直说你开的不好让你去补钟。虽然驾校都差不多，但这家是真心贪。

Negative experience: I went to this driving school and it was NOT a pleasant experience. The theory classroom is quite trashy, but at least not as USELESS as their driving practice classes. The instructors offer very poor services. They don't really teach you anything, or give you any driving tips, but they do suddenly shout at you when you make a mistake (like if I was already an expert driver, why do I pay you to teach me nothing?). The reason why they don't teach you during scheduled classes is that THEY WANT YOU TO PAY LOTS OF EXTRA LESSONS, after completing the scheduled classes, WHICH ARE MORE EXPENSIVE. I did 6 extra classes with them but still didn't learn much. I then switched to an instructor from another school for only two extra hour and passed the driving exam for the first time. The instructor from the other school was much more patient and calm, and gives you sincere tips to the point, and I finally feel that every minute of the class becomes worthy. Also, the exam location with Echo driving school is at Henri-Bourassa, right next to the highway with huge traffic, which might also be one of the reasons of low passing rate. I wish I had chosen another school or at least switched sooner, which could have saved me much more money and time.

Fantastic experience: The Instructor Philip taught me skills in my actual driving exam. I highly recommend him, very knowledgeable and easy to deal with. I passed my driving test on the first try. Kudos!!!

Negative experience: This driving school was fine in the beginning, I had absolutely no problems. The instructors were very helpful and friendly. When I got down to trying to finish my last theory class they told me that the only Module 12 class was already full and they wouldn't be having another one until January 2019. (I don't understand why they refuse to add another class) This was already long overdue for me since I had already prolonged my schooling for a year. My contract had already expired & I was planning on cancelling my contract with Echo to finish at a school that offered a Module 12 class at an earlier date. When I went to Echo's office to ask for the cancellation fee, the woman, Vanessa, told me that I had to pay 50.00 to renew my contract in order to cancel it, which costs an additional 50.00, a grand total on 100.00 to cancel, even when my contract had already expired, but also, I am cancelling because I cannot afford to wait till January to finish getting my license. At that point, I was confused. Why would I have to renew for 50.00 if I wasn't going to be finishing at this school? I asked and her only answer was that they had "rules". The next time I will be going there, I will be asking for the written rules of the contract. If I am proven wrong, then I will have absolutely no problem paying the full amount. However, I find it disgusting that they would continue to add random charges to make more pocket money. Instead of investing in another classroom, or adding more classes, I see no reason for them to be charging more than the cancellation fee. Absolutely terrible service. That woman was giving attitude left and right, and all I was doing was asking simple questions. Very disrespectful, and not very helpful at all. I normally do not complain about places, but this driving school is very demanding in terms of price, and for the prices they are asking for, I would expect a lot more manners from their boss.

Negative experience: The instructors are disgusting !

Fantastic experience: good

Fantastic experience: To be honest, it is a very good driving school. Instructors there are very nice, and you can learn a lot in this driving school. Anyway, I pass the test one shot. Whenever you call, they are always nice! Thumb up!!!
