Provincial Driving School

Expérience fantastique: L'école de conduite Provincial a dépassé mes attentes ! L'instructeur de mon fils, Shakil, a fait un travail incroyable en l'aidant à prendre confiance au volant. Il lui a enseigné non seulement des compétences de conduite sûres et précises, mais aussi des techniques défensives, qui sont essentielles sur les routes animées d'aujourd'hui. Mary, leur administratrice de bureau, a été incroyablement utile à chaque étape du processus. Du processus de paiement à la réponse à mes questions, elle a toujours été polie, professionnelle et ne nous a jamais pressés, ce qui a vraiment renforcé notre confiance. Je dois reconnaître que l'école de conduite Provincial m'a profondément impressionné ! Gianna Comeau

Expérience fantastique: L'instructeur Ismail est tout simplement formidable, il corrige les pires défauts des conducteurs pour en faire ressortir les meilleures qualités, il est patient et sympathique ! De superbes conversations ont eu lieu pendant que j'apprenais à conduire ! J'apprécie votre travail acharné et les nombreuses heures que vous consacrez. Instructeur 11/10

Expérience fantastique: Ma fille a suivi des cours de conduite provinciaux et a eu une expérience fantastique ! Traiter avec Mary a été génial ! Mary nous a guidés à chaque étape du processus. Mike (l'instructeur) était patient et a pu tout expliquer en détail. Ils ont même organisé le test G2 et nous avons pu utiliser leur véhicule pour le test (contre un frais). Cela a rendu les choses tellement plus faciles car c'était le principal véhicule sur lequel elle a appris. Si je pouvais donner plus d'étoiles, je le ferais !

Expérience fantastique: Ahmad est un excellent instructeur, après deux leçons avec lui, j'ai réussi mon examen G.

Expérience fantastique: J'ai eu le privilège d'utiliser l'École de conduite provinciale pour affiner mes habitudes de conduite avant un examen de conduite. Mon instructeur, (Joe), a des années d'expérience avec des étudiants de tous âges et de tous niveaux d'aptitude, et cela se voit ! Joe est un professionnel accompli, fournissant des connaissances, des conseils et des encouragements. Je recommanderais TRÈS FORTEMENT l'École provinciale aux nouveaux conducteurs. Merci beaucoup, Joe !

Expérience fantastique: Merci à Mary et à son équipe, j'ai réussi mon examen de permis de conduire du premier coup sans problème. Les leçons et les instructions étaient toujours claires et faciles à suivre, apprenant de grandes compétences de conduite défensive. Personnel compétent, amical et professionnel, je recommanderais certainement. Merci Mary !

Expérience fantastique: Merci d'être le meilleur instructeur de tous les temps ! Mary. Grâce à votre orientation et votre patience, vous m'avez appris les compétences nécessaires pour devenir un conducteur plus sûr en me préparant à obtenir mon permis G. Tous les conseils que vous m'avez donnés pour corriger certaines habitudes que j'avais, ces conseils de connaissances resteront avec moi pendant très longtemps. Je suis tellement heureux de vous avoir rencontré. Alexus C

Expérience négative: Je ne sais pas pour les autres instructeurs, mais évitez Omar à tout prix. J'ai eu une très mauvaise expérience avec lui. Il a annulé des cours à la dernière minute plusieurs fois. Il était très impoli, pas patient et s'attendait à ce que je me souvienne de chaque étape (en tant que débutant) pour le stationnement en parallèle alors que je n'avais qu'un cours par semaine avec lui, parfois 1 cours toutes les 2 semaines (et il a annulé). Je n'ai pas pu étudier correctement. De plus, j'ai payé pour 10 heures d'études avec lui, je ne peux étudier que 8 heures avant mon examen à cause d'un conflit d'emploi du temps, mais l'auto-école a refusé de me trouver un autre instructeur pour obtenir suffisamment d'heures, et ils ne voulaient pas non plus me rembourser pour les heures manquantes. Et oui, j'ai échoué lol.

Expérience négative: Ces gars-là n'ont aucun bureau à l'adresse mentionnée sur la photo (633 King st, Oshawa). Personne ne répond au téléphone (j'ai essayé 25 fois !!). Enfin, fatigué d'appeler, je suis allé à l'adresse mentionnée mais je n'ai trouvé leur bureau ni au rez-de-chaussée ni à l'étage de la plaza. Terrible expérience !!

Expérience fantastique: I completed the online driving course and took lessons through Provincial Driving School. My experience was fantastic from the start! I had a few questions in the beginning about how the process would work and I received helpful and timely responses via email. The online learning portion was straight forward and I never encountered any technical issues. I found the content to be informative and helpful. At times, it felt repetitive, but repetition is crucial when learning to drive! Lastly, I did the 10 hours of in car lessons with my assigned instructor, Ismail. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ismail! I had barely driven in a car previous to my lessons and by my second lesson I was on 80km/h roads and feeling so much more comfortable and confident! Ismail is a kindhearted individual who only wants the best for his students. He teaches you the skills you need, but also builds your confidence. He was truly a blessing of an instructor, as I know if I had gotten someone stern, I would not have done as well. Today I passed my G2 test on the first attempt! Of course I made a few mistakes, but I only have my own nerves and anxiety to blame for that! Overall, my instruction and lessons through Provincial Driving School and Ismail prepared me to drive confidently and I have begun to feel more and more comfortable behind the wheel! Good luck to all :)

Expérience fantastique: I had a great experience with this driving school, I took lessons to prepare me for my g test, the driving instructor is nice and made me feel comfortable! he taught me a lot of stuff and helped me! I would for sure recommend this place.

Expérience négative: I got scammed

Expérience fantastique: Ismail is the best driving instructor ever!! I was not confident in my driving and by my 3rd lesson he completely switched that around. Passed my G2 today!! Super thankful for my instructor. Thank youuu sooo much Provincial for giving Ismail as my DI:))

Expérience fantastique: I’d highly recommend this school. The online course was very convenient for my son, unlike having to go into a classroom at a set time my son could log in whenever he was available. The instructor we had showed up on time and was extremely patient. All communication weather it be e-mail or text was very clear. They will send all the information you need out so please take the time to read the message, twice if you have too, everything you need to know will be in the message. Good luck future drivers

Expérience fantastique: Shak is an amazing instructor, he's patient and very informative. I'm very grateful to have had lessons with him and feel more confident on the road. I passed my test first try thanks to Shak. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. :)

Expérience négative: Don't waste your hard earned money with Provincial! Terrible communication. Lack of instructors. No accommodations for tall people within their range of cars. It has been months and my son hasn't had 1 in car lesson, can't even get a call back.

Expérience négative: I have been waiting over a year to complete my courses that are already paid in full. Finished the online stuff now ive been waiting to speak with anyone about something that can be done about the time and money lost ive called ive emailed ive left messages and no response extremely upset and unprofessional behavior

Expérience fantastique: Both of my daughters did their drivers ed through Provincial Driving school in Oshawa. One just before/beginning of covid and one during/after. Both had great experiences. They learned everything they needed for the G1 portion with the in class/online learning and my second just passed her driving test on the first try. (first daughter did as well). The both had Omar as an instructor, he was patient and knowledgable. We requested him the second time. Highly recommend Provincial Driving School!

Expérience fantastique: Mary was very helpful in getting me to pass my G2 road test, and was truthful the entire time. The entire experience was amazing and I’m glad I picked provincial driving school, worth the money :)

Expérience fantastique: Mary and her team were outstanding to our son. I am grateful for their professionalism, honesty and communication. They were always approachable and kind to us. We would highly recommend this school to anyone looking.

Expérience négative: Such an inconsiderate driving school, I'm glad I gave up and took my business elsewhere. I told Mary that my goal was to complete my road test within a month. Instead of saying we can't/won't do that [because we rather you buy an expensive package that you don't even need] she'd email me once in a while with vague responses about availability. All phone calls go straight to voicemail and she doesn't even have the decency to call you back.

Expérience fantastique: I had a great overall experience with this driving school! Communication was clear and timely with Mary, thank you for being so helpful. I also want to say thank you so much to my driving instructor Qader who was very efficient and thorough but kind! He is really good at what he does! I did an hour refresher lesson with Qader before my G2 road test and he made me feel encouraged and confident & I passed! Thank you!

Expérience fantastique: I am a late in life driver and was signed up with a driving school in pickering but they were the worst because of my age and gender. When I decided to do some lessons with provincial I told Joe of having anxiety of driving and he was the best! Literally so patient and understanding which is so appreciated. Plus he took me on the highway and now after getting my g2 I'm comfortably driving on the highway! Thank you Joe!

Expérience positive: Great people, who take the time to help and teach You. I had Mary as my instructor to get my G back in March, got it on the first try no sweat. Highly recommend to anybody looking for a reliable & affordable driving school in Durham.

Expérience fantastique: We had a 5 star experience with Provincial Driving School. They were very accommodating with our son’s schedule and very pleasant to deal with. Mary was also very truthful about our son being ready for the G2 road test. She ended up postponing our sons original test date so he would be ready. We ended up having Mary take our son on the day of the road test which I would highly recommend. She took him out for a final 1 hour drive before the test and also took care of everything at the testing facility. Needless to say our son passed on his first attempt! Well worth the money! I will definitely be employing Provincial Driving School for my younger children when they become of age. Thank you very much Provincial Driving School!

Expérience négative: My daughter signed up for lessons in April…it’s now June 29th and she has had 1 lesson! She texts the driver with her very open availability only to be responded many days later, unable to do..then again respond and ignored many days. She complained politely the situation via email to the school ...miraculously the driver texts her! Same issue! She requested another driver and here we are again just over a month later and can’t book a lesson with a driver. She will start university in sept and assumed when signing up in April she would get at least 1 lesson a week. We would like a refund and just pay for the 1 lesson and that’s being refused. Absolutely ridiculous that no driver could commit to a lesson and nearly 3 months wasted on 1 lesson. I don’t recommend this school, unless you can get in writing a commitment to lessons. UPDATE* NO REFUND GIVEN

Expérience fantastique: Great experience overall. I took lessons for my G full license exam this May 2022 as well as my wife for her G2 exam a few months back. Instructor was very professional, provides clear instructions, and constructive criticisms. My instructor acknowledges the many different scenarios that new drivers in Ontario may find confusing, which helped clear my doubts and improved my confidence. 100% will recommend to friends and family.

Expérience fantastique: I would highly recommend Provincial Driving School to anyone working towards either their G2 or G license. I did lessons with Mary and Joe. They are both extremely helpful and patient. They truly prepare you for all you need to know on the driving test.

Expérience fantastique: I just signed up for provincial driving school, had an amazing experience with Mary, she was so painting and attentive to my needs, aswell as funny on the phone with me. Went above and beyond to help me with all my questions and give me her Personal advice. So pleasant to deal with would highly recommend to anyone who wants to have a easy and stress free sign up experience! Thanks Mary!

Expérience négative: Rude, condescending, a pain to deal with. I wouldn’t even recommend this driving school company to somebody that I hate. The instructor that I had was very nice! A great teacher, always kind, and with Shak I passed my g2 test perfectly. However, the people you’ll be dealing with are the problem. Not only were several of my emails completely ignored, I was threatened over text by the “supervisor”, telling me that he would Report me to the MTO for being an unfit driver, meanwhile at the time I have never driven a vehicle?? Tell me how that would be possible. They threatened me by telling me that my “file was closed” and “don’t contact us again”, and knowing that they don’t offer refunds, I was freaking out about them having over $300 from me with no lessons. However the next day I started getting inquiries about starting in person driving lessons? And in the end I did end up getting my certificate. I don’t know who that was that threatened me, they claimed that they were the supervisor. It started because I told them to stop talking to me with attitude after they were being extremely rude and condescending. No calm and confused customers deserve to be treated like that, so DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL. I would not recommend it to my worst enemy. Seeing a lot of the horrible reviews prove that many customers get scammed from this business, customers get ignored, we get treated very badly, don’t go to this school.

Expérience fantastique: Mary has been working with our son helping him to learn to drive for some time now. With her guidance he has become confident, learned great skills and today with her mentoring he passed his driving test. We could not be more pleased with Mary and this company. We will be working with them again soon. I absolutely highly recommend. If you have someone who needs driving lessons then this is the school to hire! You won’t be disappointed!!

Expérience fantastique: This company has been amazing for my son. Covid has hit this industry hard but they were very upfront and honest about wait times. Mary is patient and calm in the car and my son feels well prepared for his upcoming road test. I highly recommend this company and will use for my younger son when he’s ready too! The staggered payments and reasonable price is very handy, you don’t have to pay entire fee at once. Thanks Mary

Expérience négative: Had our daughter drive me to her road test, feeling confident she knew the basics after paying hundreds of dollars for lessons with Omar. Our daughter came back from her test, crying and shaking when she failed. Only then did we learn she had never been shown parallel parking, nor parking on a hill, nor putting on an emergency brake and so much more. When we contacted the school, we were shocked to hear they simply stood by their driver and refused to believe the lack of basic lessons we paid for, nor offer any compensation for all of the money we are out for having to have her re-start lessons and test, elsewhere. Very terrible and disappointing service. Buyer beware.

Expérience fantastique: Joe was the best instructor. I felt comfortable reviewing the rules of the road for the G test. I felt reassured taking the G test after being in the car with him. I passed with flying colours.

Expérience négative: Before getting enrolled in this school please clarify everything, because they don’t give any refunds. You will loss your money. Very bad experience. They charged $150 for beginners driver education course, i even passed this test but they neither gave me completion certificate nor my money back, just because I didn’t do in-person car training from them, which they ask me to wait for 4 months to get in-person training, i was not ready to wait this long. So I asked for course certificate or refund. I received nothing from them.

Expérience fantastique: I took about three in car lessons with Provincial Driving School in Oshawa about two weeks before my G2 test and it was a huge help to me. Mary was amazing and help me feel confident in myself and helped me practice what it is I’d be doing for the test. Definitely highly recommend them! I passed first try !

Expérience fantastique: I had Joe as my instructor and he's phenomenal!! He's very patient and professional. He points out the things you need to improve on and gives a lot of feedback which is helpful. Just passed my G2 first try :D

Expérience fantastique: An amazing driving school! My instructor, Omar, was awesome!! He gave my the skills I needed to pass my G2 road test on the first try. Highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: We used Provincial for my son's driving school. The pandemic made the system and processes complicated BUT this company ensured navigating the pandemic was easy. Mary was delightful to work with, very communicative, organized and proactive. Omar was the in-car instructor, he was also amazing. I would recommend this driving school to anyone in the Durham region. Thanks so much Mary!!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Huge thank you to Shak for everything he has done to help me achieve my G2! I have anxiety/ panic attacks and ADHD. He worked with me, had patience and gave me confidence I have never had. Today I got my G2 and I did perfect only one small mistake!!! He is very much recommended as a driving instructor ! I could not be more thankful to you!!!

Expérience fantastique: Provincial driving school was the best decision I have made! Joe was an exceptional instructor and completely prepared me for my G2 test which I passed on my 1st try! Mary was always wonderful to work with and so kind! I wouldn’t have ever been able to obtain my license without their help and guidance. I would highly recommend! Thank you so much Mary and Joe!

Expérience fantastique: Completely prepared me for my G2 test. If you go to this driving school, you will learn exactly what the examiner expects from you. Thanks, Mary!

Expérience fantastique: I noticed a substantial improvement with my son's driving skills after taking a few lessons with Instructor Mike. He was always punctual, professional and very informative. Mary goes above and beyond the call of duty. They are truly dedicated to the success of their students. I would highly recommend Provincial Driving School.

Expérience fantastique: Instructor Lai, was very professional, friendly, informative and punctual. I would highly recommend her and Provincial Driving School .

Expérience fantastique: I just passed my first road test as a result of the excellent service provided by Provincial Driving School. I did all my lessons with Shak, and I feel that he deserves much of the credit for my success. He worked around my busy schedule and went above and beyond to find me an available test appointment, which have been very hard to come by recently. This is a teacher that truly cares about the success of his students. I will be contacting him again when it is time for my G test!

Expérience fantastique: Three of our kids used Provincial Driving School...excellent program and employees very polite and easy to work with. Thank-you

Expérience fantastique: I came from Toronto to get my G test in Belleville. I needed preparation for it and randomly contacted Mr. Moe. It must been a sign from God for sending me this instructor. He is well versed in his field and you won't regret it learning from him. If you live in Belleville or coming outside from Belleville don't look elsewhere! Moreover, he has excellent interpersonal skills and copes with your personality.

Expérience positive: Very informative. Great experience. Very nice instructor. 10/10 would do it again.

Expérience fantastique: Learned a lot and had a great teacher.

Expérience fantastique: Provincial driving school is a great place to send your kids, not just because of the great education they provide, but also because of the good attitude they encourage to have on the road. The in class instructor that has taught me is called Joe, and he has given many good tips and tricks as to how to stay safe on the road. He has also debunked many myths that regular drivers have. This has helped me become a better and safer driver because of his encouragement towards safe and quick decision making skills on the road. I’d recommend Provincial Driving School to anyone. It’s very professional and a good place to learn because they keep it interesting, yet informative.

Expérience fantastique: Joe is great instructor learned alot and I'm a better driver because of him.

Expérience fantastique: Provincial driving school taught me so much valuable information about driving. Joe is an amazing instructor. He makes the class interesting as well as making sure everybody understands what he is teaching by answering people’s questions that they have and showing examples.

Expérience fantastique: Joe is a great teacher and helps you remember everything you need to know to be a safe and defensive driver

Expérience fantastique: I learned a lot, Joe is a great teacher!

Expérience fantastique: Joe is an absolute legend, he makes sure you understand all of the concepts and skills required to be an excellent driver on and off the road. The classroom concept is excellent, and the course itself has multiple presentations. videos, and interactive software dedicated to students for gaining knowledge and understanding the true privilege of driving a motor vehicle. I feel as though I have learned a lot in this course. The presentation on the Move Over Law was very eye opening and allows us to view police officers as human beings. I would like to thank Provincial for making me a better driver and human being. Highly recommend going here.

Expérience fantastique: Great learning experience! Learned so much about how important is is to be safe for myself and everyone else on the streets. Joe is a great instructor and makes the course very interesting.

Expérience fantastique: I want to thank my instructor Omar who was awesome. Very patient, understanding and made every effort to ensure I was successful in passing my road test. We practiced everything required, in each lesson. I left each lesson feeling confident in my skills.

Expérience fantastique: great learning environment and helpful instructor

Expérience fantastique: The instructor, Joe, is delightful. He ensures the course content is easy to follow by using relatable examples and visuals such as powerpoints.

Expérience fantastique: I love Provincial driving school and Joe is the greatest driving teacher out there.

Expérience fantastique: Joe is an absolute gem! ✨ At Provincial Driving School, all the in-class information was presented in a way that I felt I could better understand and absorb what I needed to know while out on the road, all with a dose of wide grins and humor, to boot! From the videos, to the diagrams drawn on the board, as well as with the stories to help us really visualize the sort of things that we may encounter while out on the road, I now feel a lot more confident about my understanding of the rules and regulations that I as a driver must adhere to in regards to the Graduated Licensing system (and my full G license), as well as the things I should be watching out for. I look forward to partaking in the upcoming in-car lessons, but I've really enjoyed my time with the in-class lessons here at Provincial Driving School! ⭐

Expérience fantastique:

Expérience négative: Joe is very unprofessional. I texted him right after I booked the drive test if he can take me to do it, and he said yes. The night before my test, he texted me that his wife is going to take me instead of him, but will still use the same car. After I requested if she could arrive earlier since I want to be at the test center 30 minutes before the test, she thinks I am difficult and wouldn’t take me to the test! It’s the NIGHT BEFORE MY TEST! I have no idea how can this be happened! So he later arranged another instructor to take me to do the test. With a new car, a new instructor, I failed again. Oh yes, he will only text you one night before your test date, to tell you the details about your test. They charge 110$ for doing the test by using their car, but they will only take you to the test center 15 minutes before your test time. I wouldn’t recommend them.

Expérience fantastique: Joe was an amazing instructor. He was very polite and patient when people were having difficulty. He makes class much more enjoyable and brings humour to help us learn!

Expérience fantastique: Instructors are great! Lessons are easy to follow and fun, learnt soo much from this class! Thanks for the experience!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing course. Super easy to follow and very informative. Joe makes things simple and takes his time to clear grey areas. I recommend Provincial 100% - Cassandra Mary Sue Proskin

Expérience fantastique: Joe is a wonderful teacher and how they display driving school is very well you learn a great amount in only four days and makes a big awareness about how dangerous other drives can be on the road and I suggest a lot of people under 19 should take driving school before going for their g1 or g2. Really worth the 450 had a excellent experience!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Joe was a great instrouctor. I learned a lot from him and will always the important thing he said. Thanks alot to provincial driving school

Expérience fantastique: Joe is an amazing in class instructor. I only wish i could have him for in car instructor too. All my dealings with Provincial driving school has been positive. Mary is very helpful to when providing answers to all your inquires. I highly recommend Provincial Driving School

Expérience négative: I just spoke to a instructor named Joe. Actually he texted me very unprofessional. Joe contacted me back after 6 days later after i spoke too a nice lady on the phone too book appointment. Very slow response i won't recommend this company at all.

Expérience fantastique: I <3 joe

Expérience fantastique: Awesome Driving School. Joe is very helpful and knowledgeable! I definitely recommend this school to everyone!

Expérience fantastique: Very knowledgeable learned alot in a small amount of time. Joe is very friendly, takes time in explaining lessons. Would highly recommend to new drivers.

Expérience fantastique: My sister and I attended Provincial for four consecutive weeks in class! However, it did not feel that long because Joe makes it so fun and interesting that my low-attention span teenage mind has held up in driving school! Send your kids here, it was so fun and informative

Expérience fantastique: great experience and very helpful lessons
