I had gone to MBA driving school on Broadview and Danforth and found it awful!!! The in class…read moredriver and the in car driving instructors were highly unprofessional; one farted in the car! and the other stopped for a hog-dog stand while making me read some stuff I already knew (to give himself time to eat). So ...I sent my daughter to YD of Canada and what a difference!!! I then booked my G2 road test course with Pape/ Danforth YD of Canada and learned what I hadn't in just two lessons!!! By the end I was so good! Ivan Ivanovic was a great instructor... I passed my G2 road test with 92% on the very first attempt!!! The only thing I don't care about is the fear approach, my daughter was already too cautious a driver and after been exposed to images in class and some of the talks, she was even more afraid to drive. That might be a good approach for most teens, but it can also be a detriment for the over cautious one.

The in class part of the program was as positive as could be expected. while I feel that we could…read moreaccomplish the same amount in less time, that is a government mandate, and not the choice of yd. The instructor was engaging and knowledgeable.

One of Adam Driving School's cars passed me while I was on my bike the other day. There was one guy…read morein the car, so I shall assume this a supposed driving instructor as opposed to a student / novice. So the guy cut me off, jumped lanes right in front of me at Carlaw and Dundas, and never looked, and definitely never signalled. I was riding in my correct lane and clearly visible. So I propose this kind of useless, inattentive driver can't possibly know anything about driving, and therefore should not be allowed to run a driving school.

Abid was my instructor. I have driven for some 30 years but at age 82 i needed to renew my…read morelicense. I thought i was good enough a driver, and was shocked that i failed my first road test a few months ago. In a hurry i looked into take lessons, and Abid became my instructor. Surprise and surprise, I found that my driving practice needed improved--a lot. And after about 2 months with Abid, i did improve and passed my test without much difficulty. I think Abid (1) is a first rate instructions. he spares no efforts to teach until his students know and observe all the safety rules. (2) He's diplomatic to a fault. (3) He gives praises at least as much as he gives corrections. As a result, the lessons became interesting rather than hard and dreary.

Overall I had a positive experience with AMB. I took package 2. The in-class lessons were good -…read moreour instructor Ejaz was great. Patient with questions, funny, and overall really looking to help students learn. However, the slides/training material/quizes had lots of typos and mistakes, which distracted quite a bit from the course contents, but overall I did feel like I learned what I needed to. Additionally the way to pay was quite confusing - you pay the first $50 by credit card up-front, but the rest of the course you have to by by e-transfer after the in class portion. Felt a little shady/disorganized, but in the end worked out fine. These are the only reasons I didn't give 5 stars. My in car instructor was Amir, and he was fantastic. Friendly, encouraging, and had a great method of teaching where I felt really confident in all the skills by the end. Rather than focusing each class on a specific skill and repeating them over and over, we practiced all the skills every class, which worked really well for me. That way by the end I hadn't forgotten all the skills from the start. Also he picked me up right downtown and we practiced all over the downtown core. I really apprciated practicing in the busy downtown, as now I feel like I can drive anywhere. I started the first in class lesson on April 23, and finished everything including the G2 driving test by June 10 (I was already past the first year after getting my G1) and passed the first time at Toronto Metro East.

I had a very disappointing experience with AMB Driving School…read more We booked a G2 exit package that included lessons and a road test, and we clearly provided the test center location (37 Carl Hall Rd) from the beginning. At no point during booking or payment were we informed about any distance limit or additional travel charges. Just 2 days before the test, we were suddenly told that we had to pay extra because the location is "too far," referring to a 22 km limit that is nowhere clearly stated on their website or booking page. This lack of transparency and last-minute surprise fee is extremely unprofessional and stressful, especially when customers rely on these services for important tests. We even offered to meet the instructor closer to reduce the distance, but they refused to accommodate. Overall, very poor communication and hidden costs. I would not recommend this school unless they improve their transparency and customer service.

I booked 5 sessions with them plus the car for the test. I paid for it all. The day I went to do my…read moretest, they "forgot" about it. I went to the test centre to do my test and the car is not there. They burnt my test due to their incompetence.

I cannot recommend Shane and Driving Skills enough.

He helped me work through my anxiety and fear as a first-time driver and made me feel confident behind the wheel. Shane's calm, laid-back personality makes learning stress-free and comfortable.

Hearing all the positive reviews about Shahid interested me in learning to drive with him, but boy…read morewas i wrong. 1) I paid for a 5 lesson package and he canceled one of my lessons and when we saw each other again, he tried to say I did one of the lessons already. 2) As a learner, we are all learning how to drive and each of us learn differently. When I made mistakes, Shahid would yell at me and put me down. He would compare me to others, say I'm driving like a Chinese person and would also diminish your confidence by bringing up previous mistakes. 3) When he booked my road test, I told him to book it on a Tuesday or Wed. He then decided to book it on a Thursday morning when that was not what I requested. 4) Instead of letting me work on the things I need work on, Shahid would continuously do the same things over and over again. He would make me do 3 point turns multiple times when that's one of my strong suits. 5) When I told him I was going to write a review about him after I pass my road test, he said, "you better write a good one" this means that he probably gets individuals who are good at driving to write him good reviews. 6) They charge way too much money for no reason. 292$ for 5 lessons is insane. They charge tax on everything for no reason. 7) Shahid will sit on his phone and watch instagram reels, call people or just fall asleep instead of teaching you. Of course he would deny that because lucky for him, there is no cameras in the car. Overall, please do not go with Shahid. The Other guys are pretty good, but this guy does not care about you or your driving; he simply wants your money. Go drive with someone who will give you the confidence needed to strive on the road. Good luck everyone!

I've just had my first in car class with Zak from Today's Driver Driving School. He was fantastic!…read moreSuch a friendly guy, very encouraging, and very helpful as well. He really knows his stuff and he's a terrific instructor. I was apprehensive as I had already been treated very badly by another driving school near me. The way I was treated by Zak, however, was the exact opposite. I really look forward to our next lesson. I'm only taking in car refresher classes so I can't speak to the way the rest of the program is run at Today's Driver but if my hour and a half with Zak today is any indication, then this school is definitely worth checking out.

The only instructor assigned to our area is booked up for months…read more We pre-booked our in-car lessons months ahead to ensure completion in a year, per the provincial requirements. The instructor randomly changed the date and times as well as locations. (To suit their own schedule.) They don't always pick you up at your home. They claim it's normal for you to have to travel to meet them at the location of their choice. (I spoke with other people and this isn't the norm.) When you call yd on the phone, the individuals at the desk try and to talk to the driving instructor, but are stuck in the middle and have little to no power. I did yd decades ago, when it was decent. Not perfect. They always accidentally skipped over one of your paid lessons but honestly, it was still not as bad back then. Nowadays, I recommend any other driving school but this one.

I don't have extended health benefits, so when I found out about Eight Branches, I hot tailed my…read morebutt there. Eight Branches has a teaching clinic that treats clients. Because it's a school, there is usually 3 people residing over your treatment (1 primary and 2 secondaries). You'll be asked a lot of questions about your health and any issues you have. They then leave for about 5 minutes deciding how to treat you. I teach yoga and if you can believe it, I get tight in my upper back (all those downward dogs), so sometimes I'll get a massage (Tuina, a chinese massage that is done over your clothes and feels amazing; cupping, which is a deep massage but if you love deep tissue massage, it's AWESOME!!! You will have marks on your backs though - they do fade; sometimes Shiatsu). They also do acupuncture (of course). They will also prescribe herbs if needed. The cost is $20 a session (the session is about 1.5 hours), but if you get a living green card, it's $15/session. Go...just go.

I've never gone for student treatments, just gone to see regular practioners at this clinic. i've…read moregone for both acupuncture and shiatsu massage. In which case, cost is more than student-run, but still very reasonable I think compared to many other places. The practioners there are excellent, so knowledgeable and intuitive and treat all sorts of issues. Very comfortable, professional, and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend a visit, especially if you are struggling with some sort of issue and not sure what can be done about it. I think they can help or point you in the right direction.
