5 Reasons to Choose Let's Go Driving School…read more 1. Flexible with scheduling and cancellation of lessons. (I had to cancel a few scheduled lessons on short notice and was not charged.) 2. Great communication: my instructor Abdul was easy to reach by text and always responded quickly. 3. I'm a "late bloomer" (older learner) and so took a few more lessons that a typical student to feel comfortable taking my G2 road test. Abdul was incredibly patient and easy to get along with, even when I was stressed out, lol. 4. As a woman, I was impressed by the professionalism and courtesy I was shown. I have taken driving lessons a few times in the past and did not feel as comfortable with other male driving instructors. 5. Abdul has a calm, even-tempered, confidence-evoking presence; his quick reflexes, experience, and knowledge of the finer points of learning to drive were pure gold!

The teacher was always cheerful she's genuinely a kindhearted person anyone can get along with. Overall I learned a lot about driving defensive driving and gained a lot of skill in the two weekends.

My first lesson was meh, my instructor was difficult to understand and would get slightly agitated…read morewith me. He was not greatly suited to me as for I get upset easily and he would not help with the nerves I had. I switched instructors (which ended up being the best decision!). The instructor that I had for the last 4 lessons was great. He made driving so much less stressful by chatting and really getting to know me as a person and driver. He was such a great instructor, knows his stuff, wouldn't ever get upset and gave great tips for my G2 test. Shoutout Tibor!

Waited a few months before writing this as I did not want to post reactively. Comparing this to…read moreYoung Driver's (where my eldest took lessons) it could not have been more different. Here is where DTSM absolutely failed my child: 1) did not teach them what a "blind spot" is ("shoulder check" without telling you why/where you are to look is completely useless and dangerous); 2) Did not teach u-turn (when questioned about this, the school admin said "I personally think they should be illegal"); 3) Did not take them driving at night; 3) Did not teach parallel parking (only to park behind a car - when questioned the driving instructor told my child - "there's plenty of parking in Ottawa - no need to parallel park"); 4) Did not allow my child to wear sunglasses to the point where I needed to insist/retrain this behaviour because it is a safety issue when you are blinded by the sun (obviously!); 5) Did not take them on the highway. Beyond this, parking was only practiced/taught the first lesson and reviewed at the last lesson, and my child was taught to drive under the speed limit by 5-10km/hr. All of this to say, I will not be taking my youngest child to this school when it is her turn to learn and would discourage others from choosing this driving school.

Jim's Driving School, Bank Street, Ottawa, Ontario (613-731-1777)…read more What a great school! Very Professional. Sophia the Office Manager is very pleasant and excellent to work with. She helped us out a great deal. The course my daughter took was 30 hours on line theory and 10 hours of actually driving. The price was very competitive. The Driving Instructor was Gihad Qassem who was also excellent. My 16 year old daughter said Gihad was very professional, funny, knew how to teach, and made the driving lessons very enjoyable. My daughter took her G2 Driving test two days after passing the Drivers Education course, SHE PASSED the first time, so Jim's Driving School and Gihad must be doing something right! We highly recommend Jim's Driving School on Bank Street in Ottawa.

I had a bad experience at Alliance Française in Ottawa, although I've heard good things from other…read morepeople. I had a received a credit towards any class or private classes after cancelling a course (they don't do refunds). I emailed the school multiple times to set up private classes and no one ever got back to me. I finally I went in person and spoke to someone who took my availability and said she would email me later that week to set something up, she never did. Nor did she answer my emails politely asking for an update. About three weeks later I went in person again and she finally set up two private classes. I had specifically asked for someone who speaks with a European accent, and they gave me a teacher from the Caribbean. Not a big deal, she spoke very clearly, but for an $80 session I thought it was a bit weird that they wouldn't grant my request. The first class I asked the teacher if we could focus more on conversation and listening, and I could make a note any errors I was making. Since I was studying to take the TFI French exam, she said we could make that the focus of our next class and she would bring all the teaching material to go over the following week. The next class she didn't show up, I waited and eventually had to ask the reception to call her and she showed up 30 min later. She didn't bring any of the coursework for the TFI exam that I was looking forward to reviewing, and she had nothing prepared. I figured we might as well do conversational French again, as I wanted to take advantage of having a native speaker. But she insisted on spending our time writing on the board. I explained that I know how important verb conjugations are (I practice them at home), but that I would like to work on my speaking and listening skills. She reluctantly agreed, but her attitude changed and she started acting bored and irritated with me. It got so bad I eventually just walked out. Needless to say, I'm not planning to go back. I am now using a service called italki to speak with native speakers over Skype and I am much happier with it. Good luck to everyone in their language learning adventures, I hope your experience with AF is better than mine!
