Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving: Des avis

Expérience négative: C'est une école frauduleuse. Ils promettent un programme de formation de 10 heures mais ne livrent pas. Leurs conducteurs ne s'engagent pas envers vous. Ils passent leur temps de formation sur leurs téléphones et ne sont jamais à l'heure. C'est mon expérience personnelle avec cette école. Ne faites pas confiance à cette école. Vous mentez toujours. J'ai changé de formatrice car elle n'avait pas de temps. Je lui ai envoyé un message mais elle n'a pas répondu. Mon message pour elle le prouve. 'J'ai un problème avec la coach féminine' est une diffamation. Je voudrais que vous me montriez votre preuve si vous l'avez. Veuillez partager ma voix que vous avez enregistrée. Malheureusement, vous mentez. J'ai partagé mon problème avec votre collègue, mais il n'a pas répondu.

Désolé que vous ressentiez cela, mais on vous a attribué un instructeur féminin, que vous avez refusé, en disant que vous ne vouliez pas d'un instructeur de conduite féminin. Pour vous accommoder, nous vous avons fourni un instructeur masculin. Lorsque votre instructeur vous a donné des instructions, vous en avez ri en sachant qu'il vous préparait à un test de conduite, et pendant vos leçons, vous avez fait des commentaires sexistes envers d'autres conductrices sur la route. De plus, vous avez décidé de passer votre test de conduite après avoir refusé d'y aller avec votre instructeur, et après avoir échoué votre test, vous avez voulu un remboursement. Vous auriez pu nous demander un autre instructeur, mais vous avez choisi de ne pas le faire. Votre instructeur a pris des appels téléphoniques avant de commencer vos leçons, et selon la politique, nous informons les élèves que nous les rappelerons, donc vos leçons n'ont pas été interrompues comme vous l'indiquez dans vos commentaires. Nous avons toutes vos conversations enregistrées avec les instructeurs, donc nous vous encourageons fortement à être honnête dans vos commentaires. Vous avez refusé notre service même lorsque votre instructeur vous a demandé de compléter toutes vos leçons.

Expérience fantastique: J'ai pris des cours pour mon g après le g1 et je l'ai réussi du premier coup. Shayad Ali, mon instructeur, m'a vraiment aidé. Je pense qu'il est la seule raison pour laquelle j'ai réussi mon g. J'avais peur avant de prendre le cours avec lui, mais après l'avoir suivi, il m'a donné confiance pour y aller. Je recommande fortement de prendre des cours avec lui si vous voulez réussir votre g ou g2 du premier coup. 'Le meilleur instructeur que vous pouvez trouver dans la GTA', il suffit de suivre ses instructions et vous aurez votre g en main.

Expérience fantastique: I took G2 driving lessons with Mr. Syed and i passed in first attempt. He is an excellent and hardworking instructor, explained all small points and details that help you become a good and confident driver. I am an extremely nervous person and he not only improved my weak points in driving but also helped me gain self confidence. I am definitely taking lessons from him to work towards attaining my G license and strongly recommend taking driving lessons with him to not only improve your driving skills but your self confidence. Thank you

Expérience fantastique: I had an excellent experience with Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving. Special thanks to Syed, who was my instructor, he’s an amazing person. He’s absolutely professional, patient and ensures to fine tune your areas of weaknesses. I have passed my G2 exam in first attempt and truly enjoyed the experience of learning. I highly recommend this school for both beginners and experienced drivers who are looking forward to clear G2 or G tests.

Arunam Srivastav 2 years ago

Expérience négative: I was in talks with the instructor, Annie. When I contacted her in October 2022, she asked me to contact her in March 2023. In March when I contacted her, she asked me to book my G2 driving test date. I booked the test for 27th March. Now she stopped responding to my texts and calls. I got to know from another trainer, Ray, that Annie is on vacation and will be back in April. A BIG NO to this institution from my side as the basic human courtesy is to respond, provide clarity, and don’t make false promises and their trainer failed in all these three aspects. Just to note over here: I was not given a single training session from this school.

Expérience fantastique: I would like to thank my instructor Rabia for helping me become familiar and comfortable with my driving once again to pass my G test. Having passed my G2 with her as an instructor she was again just as kind, personable and easy to learn from, making each lesson smooth and informative right up until my test date. I can say I have now gotten over any remaining driving anxiety I had while learning with her and would highly recommend her as a driving instructor.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing driving school! I had my G2 test today and passed all thanks to Ray and his wonderful teaching. As I did my lessons with him I became an overall better defensive/aware driver - not to mention, everything that I learned with him also made me a confident driver and I am beyond thankful for the tips and skills I now have! I highly recommend Ray as an instructor, he is patient and determined to see you succeed. Any questions I had, he went above and beyond to ensure I understood everything and that allowed me to feel so much more calm and ready. If any of you are looking for lessons I wouldn’t recommend anything else :) Such a friendly enviornment. Thanks Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving. Will be coming back for my G lessons.

Expérience négative: Raheel is totally unprofessional guy. he takes too much time for my Classes. He didn't even completed my 10 hours. He behave like his time is valuable while at the same time he is wasting our time. If we call he will never pick up and after one lesson we have to call him for a week or two weeks to get second lesson. He unconsciously charge for his unprofessional classes. He has COMPLETED MY 4 HOURS CLASS IN 3 MONTHS. 1 star is mandatory otherwise i want to rate him in minus. FIND SOMEONE DON'T GO FOR HIM.

Expérience fantastique: Great and knowledgeable instructors. Ali took care of my in car lessons and he was patient, clear, informative and will be sure to take care of you for your lessons. Quick and easy to book car lessons Pricing is fair and much cheaper than a lot of other schools, so getting the deluxe package with the instructors car for the G2 test is definitely worth it. Big shout out to Rabia, who picked me up, did a refresher lesson, and drove me to and from my G2 test all within a day's notice. Helped me passed

Expérience fantastique: BEST PLACE TO GO FOR DRIVING LESSONS!!! I had tried multiple places for driving lessons and this driving school is the best! Very informative, patient and kind driving instructors. 100% would recommend.

Khadijah 5 years ago

Expérience fantastique: I'd like to thank my instructor Rabia for helping me become comfortable and knowledgeable with my driving! She was very personable and easy to talk to, gave great advice that was simple to remember which broke down the anxiety I developed towards driving after failing my first G2 road test 4 years ago with a past instructor I was not comfortable with. After about a month of weekly lessons I was able to pass my G2 test easily and comfortably. Would definitely recommend to anyone especially anxious with driving like I was and I am planning to book her for G test lessons in the future.

Sally L 5 years ago

Expérience négative: Ray is the most unprofessional driving instructor: he does not respond to messages, hard to get a hold of, does not confirm driving appointments, REFUSED to teach me more than 5 lessons until TWO WEEKS before my test when he knows I’m really busy and is hard to schedule times for lessons. I’ve learned more from my family and friends about driving than from CADD, would not recommend this place, a driving instructor per lesson is more worth it. They make you pay up front and don’t care about you afterwards.

Mihir Diwadkar 6 years ago

Expérience fantastique: I was very anxious about driving in a new country for the first time. I got to know about this school from a friend and he suggested me Mr. Syed Ali. He was a strict and disciplined instructor which kept me focused on driving throughout the lessons. Learning so much in a short time is difficult without a good teacher, but he proves otherwise! Thank you for making me a responsible driver! Kudos!

I recommend them to anyone who is in the quest of getting any class of Driver's license.

Naven Alagarsamy 6 years ago

Expérience fantastique: I took the in-vehicle driving classes from CADD. The instructor who aligned to me was Mr.Syed. He was very professional, punctual and he took care of my daily class schedules. He made me drive so comfortably in every stage of the classes and i was able to drive easy from the first few classes itself. He teaches the lifetime driving skills to be developed and not just how to pass the test alone. Today I have passed my G2 road test successfully in the 1st attempt. Thanks Syed for your support and I would recommend him from CADD to anyone.

Ace Garcia 6 years ago

Expérience négative: This is my first 1.0 (Should be less than that) star on Google. Based on my experience ray might be a fair instructor (not that good but fair) , a slightly arrogant (he thinks his time is more important), lazy and unprofessional driving instructor. Imagine you paying him $$$ and have you to call XXX times and waste time. If you call him or their office numbers no one is answering. A complete waste of time, not worth the money. I only have 1 driving lesson after 2 months and I think I will complete the course in a year (or not at all). I am currently coordinating with MTO and in reference to Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 545 with regards to these kind of practices. I would definitely suggest to avoid CADD driving school a TOTAL WASTE OF TIME and a complete DISAPPOINTMENT. They will say I did not called them, "THEY LIED". Seriously? It's creepy of them and you to be childish. LinkedIn is a "PUBLIC" platform and I have to check people from CADD to know their instructors. Hint: You'll know how you will be treated as a Client by reading their (ray's) (Defensive and Narcissistic) reactions here or into other comments. Lastly beware of Google fake reviews just to boost up ratings signs of a shady business.

Hi Ace Glen Garcia, we are sorry that you feel this way. You did not call the school and address your issue or else we would have taken care of the situation. Also can you please stop lurking onto all of our other employees LinkedIn profiles? They are not your driving instructors nor have they ever seen or met you. We are not sure what is your motive by going through their profiles is but please stop because they are really creeped out by this.

Rainbow Chan 6 years ago

Expérience positive: Passed my exam on the first try but there were many problems with how it was done. Yes it is true that you have to contact them alot in order to get anything done. They are friendly but also cut corners on time. I understand that they are constantly busy but I never had a full one hour lesson out of the supposed 10 that I was supposed to have. I think out of my paid 10 hours I may have gotten 8 in total. Still I passed.

Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving
Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving

Congratulations York Chan! The reason driving instructors are not always able to pick up the phone when you call them is because the are driving or teaching other students. Also summer is a high peak season so it can get little frustrating also for the instructors to trying to replying back to all the students right away, but we do try our best. If you felt that the lessons were short then please do contact us so we can address your concern with your driving instructor. Once again congratulations and Thank you for choosing Us!

Siddiqua Mohamed 6 years ago

Expérience négative: This is the worst driving school ever!!! DO NOT TAKE THEM TO TEACH YOUR KIDS!!! They never ever return your calls. My daughter had 5 lessons in 3 months, they book you for a lesson and then you have to run them down for a second lesson after a million call and text messages to them then I get a second lesson after 1 month. I wasted my money. Now my daughter has to go with a new school, not only my money was wasted, but also her time. They don't even deserve 1 star, they are terrible!!!

Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving
Canadian Academy of Defensive Driving

Siddiqua Mohamed we do expect a little bit of honesty from the customers leaving their reviews. It did not take your daughter 3 months to have only 5 lessons. You specifically wanted a Male only instructor and denied of having a female instructor. The Male instructor you wanted was extremely busy and only gave your daughter 1 lesson and couldn't continue, and once you called the school we did changed the instructor for you who was available and was a female and well ready to teach your daughter. Once you got the female instructor, she finished the entire lessons without any delay. You did not go to any other driving school nor was your money wasted. Could you care to update and be honest with your reviews?

Expérience fantastique: Ray was a great instructor. He really knew his stuff and was able to teach his knowledge of driving quickly and efficiently to me. I passed my G2 with ease on my first try thanks to him. Highly recommend

Gagandeep Kaur 6 years ago

Expérience fantastique: Ray is an amazing guy. He is friendly and likes to talk a lot. He will scold u, criticise u but do not get offended from it. He does it to make sure that you learn driving in a proper manner and makes sure that there is no scope of making mistakes while driving on road and getting into trouble. I recommend his classes as he never suggets to go outside city and take test and pass,like some other driving schools do. He will teach you within the city and will make you take test within the city in order to make sure that you get confident while driving. I am glad that i learnt to drive from him. Sometimes he gets late or cancels the class but there is a reason behind it so please do not doubt him.

Infinite Collectibles 6 years ago

Expérience fantastique: Had a great experience with CADD! They we're very flexible & are willing to work with you every step of the way. My instructor Ray knows his stuff inside & out and made passing my G2 test a breeze. The help was very much appreciated and I will be back in the new year for some G license prep!

GOO CHAN 6 years ago

Expérience négative: My son took the beginner package, the instructor Ray compressed the in-class training from 4 days into 3 because he was busy. Since then I never able to get a schedule for driving practice. I call many times either no one answer or ask me to call back. My son finally have a schedule after 2 months of contacting but Ray didn't show up and no call back. Rescheduled a couple days later but again no show up and can't reach them. On and off, my son had 3 classes in 4 months. I am frustrated !! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!! This place should not be in business.

Sorry that you feel this way. It is quite possible that there was a broken communication. It would be more professional of you to have contacted us to discuss any issues or concerns you had so that we could discuss them further, so that it would help us both progress and learn from each other in the future.

Expérience négative: Horrible experience, unable to schedule any road lessons for months. This is a one guy company. No show no call. Need to reschedule many times still the same no show no call back. I paid and now I am stuck. I wonder where did they get the teaching license. I need to report them!

Expérience fantastique: Did the mini package 5 lessons for $255. Ray (same name as me) was the instructor, and boy was he helpful. Taught me stuff (small, yet important) where regular drivers on the road are not correct, to pass my g1 exit road test on my first try. Card was about to expire and he did a really job taking care of me. Highly recommended! Definitely will be coming back for more training for the G license. Thanks bro!! Edit: You'll have to call him and message him frequently as he's actually really busy trying to keep up the workload. In the end, the training you receive is golden.

Expérience fantastique: Easily one of the best driving schools in Toronto. I got my G2 on the first try thanks to Ray. Definitely recommend new drivers to go to Ray who is an excellent instructor, very patient, practical, and helpful!

Expérience fantastique: This is hands down the best training school in toronto. Ray is a great trainer who is dedicated to ensuring that all his students pass in the first try. He has vast knowledge and experience in defensive driving which he ensures to pass on to all of his students. I had a great experience with Ray and I highly recommend him and his school for everyone who is looking to Ace the Drive test.

Expérience fantastique: Really loved the experience of learning with them. Ali was very patient and helped me pass my G2 Road Test on the very first attempt. As for the in class lectures, Ray was very helpful, thorough and taught with great enthusiasm. I have already suggested this place to all my friends.

Chris Brant 7 years ago

Expérience fantastique: Drove with Ali and passed my G2 on my first attempt. I had very little driving experience when I started with him and Ali taught me everything I needed to know in only 5 lessons. He was very patient and kept everything very comprehensible and practical.

Expérience fantastique: Mr Ali (Syed) is a fabulous instructor! He is expert on transit rules. He really teaches you how to drive, not only to pass in the test, but for life. I really appreciate his teaching approach. I completely own him my success on my driving test. Thank you Mr Ali!

Expérience négative: -The instructor cusses at you for not driving the way he like it -promises to pick you up and drop off at my house when renting their car for g2. But false advertised as they did not drop me off at my house but 20minutes away, and i had to uber home instead. Please do yourself a favour and go with a different driving school in the area.

Expérience fantastique: Very awesome experience! In class lessons were very informative, thorough, and definitely teach you a broad perspective on driving. I recommend Ziggy as an instructor as he is very patient, funny and very clear with his instructions! Fair prices and thanks to him, i passed with my G2 with 1 try!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing driving school! The In class session was really informative and a real eye opener! The driving Instructor in the car was really nice and patient with me, given the fact that I didn't even know how to start the car lol. Over all really nice and helpful Instructors. Definitely will recommend this school to my friends. Cheers!

Expérience négative: Not my favourite place to go. They did teach me how to drive and i passed everything but i do not like the instructors. They go with the 'just do it and ill sit here and watch, only opening my mouth to yell at you' style.

Expérience négative: Absolutely terrible. Ray is the most irresponsible and unprofessional instructor there is. You literally have to chase him down with phone calls just to be able to schedule ONE CLASS PER WEEK. He doesn't answer his phone most of the time and he doesn't check or reply to text messages. When you're FINALLY able to have a lesson with him, he's ALWAYS LATE. He also cancels and bumps lessons last minute. He's wasted so much of my time last summer, and he's not even apologetic about any trouble he has caused his students. He acts like only his time is precious and the rest of the world should wait for him. By the way, he also smokes in the car DURING lessons. They also advertise "free road test booking" on their site, but that's misleading. First of all, you would have already paid to have your road test when you did your G1. Second of all, the ministry doesn't charge you just to book your test. Third of all, this driving school doesn't even help you book your test. You book it on your own, and the instructor tells you last minute... This was near the end of summer when all the summer test appointments were booked full. TL;DR - this driving school is a scam.

Expérience fantastique: My overall experience to this academy was perfectly amazing and ZIGGY, you are so awesome man! I just passed my G-2 road test yesterday because Ziggy taught me everything from the first time we met, up to the day of my road test. He is so calm, funny, patient and very straight forward guy that will teach you everything you need to know for the road test. I will definitely recommend this academy to all who wish to pass the test in one try and of course my man Ziggy to be the instructor because you will learn everything from him. Again thank you CADD and of course Ziggy, you are the BEEESSSTT!! #justpassedG2 #bestdrivingschool #passwithconfidence

Adam Waters 9 years ago

Expérience négative: Tried for 6 months to get an instructor. Tried several times to reach someone. Finally spoke with Ray & he promised someone would contact me in 1-2 days. After 1 month I gave up & tried to contact again, still after 6 mths no one called. Wanted to come here because it was close to home & I regret wasting time with this business. Why treat people like they are not as important as your schedule? If you have too many commitments be honest & say you don't have the capacity to take on new clients instead of setting the expectation that someone will DEFINITELY contact me and never do!! Don't bother going to this school. They want your money instead of taking the time to treat you with respect as every potential new client should have. If I could give this business half a star I would. #disappointed #nevercalled #howareyoustillinbusiness Adam W

Expérience négative: It took me a year to finish my in-car driving classes! This is very unprofessional, delaying and cancelling classes for no reason. I'm really disappointed that I can't reach this school after paying and finishing my driving classes to get my certificate. It's really ridiculous that after a year I still get no response from Ray (the guy who manages this place). Just a piece of advice for new comers, don't pay the entire package in advance before getting your certificate.
