Shifting Gears Driving School, Inc.

Expérience fantastique: Marly is a wonderful teacher, very knowledgeable and skilled. I'm a class 5 driver who has never driven a manual vehicle until starting with Marly and it's been wonderful to learn the basics. Very patient and informative. Highly recommended!

Expérience fantastique: I enjoyed my lessons with Marly so much. If you are looking for a great manual driving instructor, please stop your search as you’ve found her! Marly is so patient, and she creates a really supportive and approachable atmosphere during every lesson. Her prices are reasonable, she’s flexible, and I appreciated that she customized each lesson for me and my needs. Thanks so much, Marly!

Expérience fantastique: Marley is excellent instructor Thank you

Expérience fantastique: Learning how to drive stick with Marly was phenomenal! Her teaching methods were super effective & she had the most stellar personality. She’s very patient and she made sure that I walked away with a strong grasp of the concepts learned. I recently sold my automatic in for a stickshift & was able to test drive it without stalling a single time :) I cannot recommend Marly enough!

Expérience fantastique: Marly Zell is the best driving instructor ever with additional extra tips experiences

Expérience fantastique: Marly helped me learn stick within a week or two before i needed to drive stick for work! She was so kind and encouraging and so accommodating for the short time frame within which I needed to learn… totally devoted to driving stick now! Thank you Marly!!

Expérience fantastique: I've taken my N and full with her, and suggested my friends to do the same. Definitely worth it, and would do it again 100%.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing teacher. Very patient, calming and guiding. Also an absolute riot to gab with. Highly recommend driving lessons w/ Marly and Goldilocks!

Expérience fantastique: Had lessons with Marly many years ago. It just occurred to me to post a review because what I learned from her sticks with me to this day (as well as memories of the lovely time I had). I did not have much experience driving any car when I started my lessons (had my L but little practice). Beyond learning how to drive a manual car in a fun, supportive environment, Marly taught me good habits (turn your lights on, alley speed limits etc) and etiquette. I highly recommend Marly for any new driver that wants to start with a manual car.

Expérience fantastique: Marly is an absolute gem of an instructor. She was extremely patient, kind supportive in our lessons and gave me the comfort of learning manual without any pressure or stress. On top of that, she is one of the most playful and humorous person you'll ever meet. Believe me when I say you'll never fail to have fun in her lessons while becoming a stick shift pro.

Expérience fantastique: Marly is an absolutely fantastic driving instructor. I was initially very nervous about learning to drive (especially standard, but that was what we had as our family car), but Marly's patience and clear teaching approach helped me not only to become a confident driver, but to pass both my Class 7 and 5 road tests. I highly recommend her if you're learning to drive manual transmission!

Expérience fantastique: It is said that manual transmission cars are easier to repair in a zombie apocalypse, so I made haste to take some stick shift lessons with Marly. Just in case. I found her to be an excellent instructor and would definitely recommend anyone looking for stick shift lessons!

Expérience fantastique: Marley is an excellent instructor. She has years of experience working with the Young Drivers program. She is very friendly, calm, and makes you feel comfortable behind the wheel. Her instructions helped me go from no experience to competent in little time. I absolutely recommend her classes.

Expérience fantastique: Learning to drive in my mid-thirties was daunting enough on its own, even more so because I only had access to a standard vehicle. Marly had me shifting gears like a pro in no time at all, and prepared me well for my road test in just a handful of lessons. She has a thoughtful, patient teaching style and knows how to put a beginner at ease! Highly recommended.

Expérience fantastique: I booked in an emergency shift slot on very short notice and she was awesome. I was replaying her in my head (brake brake brake brake smash (the clutch)) as I later brought a real sports car to a halt. I'll work on the clutch creeping as slow control really is the key. I absolutely recommend her. Quality person, quality instructor, great energy.

Expérience fantastique: I already knew how to drive an automatic, but I wanted to learn how to drive a stick for various reasons (cheaper to drive, and more common internationally). Marley came up in my Google search so I gave her a call. She is VERY friendly, and she's an amazing teacher. She's very calm in the car, and no matter how many times I stalled she never seemed to be phased by it, and just encouraged me to try again. She was also very protective, and managed the drivers around me so they didn't get too close or too aggressive; it kept me at ease. Now I can hear her voice now when I drive - in a good way! I HIGHLY recommend her if you're learning to drive standard!!
