  I had the pleasure of learning to drive from Maureen. She’s extremely kind, generous and accommodating. She was a patient instructor and made sure I learn to drive safe. As a new learner, I was extremely nervous. With Maureen’s support, I made quick progress. I’m hoping to clear my road test soon. I highly recommend their driving school.

  Both my son's have done driver training with Maureen and John passing their road test on the first attempt.  I highly recommend using their service to prepare your teenage son or daughter for the road test and build confidence. They will cover everything you need to know and make certain you are ready to take the test when the time comes.

  Amazing instruction and confidence-building behind the wheel. Maureen was patient and taught me great driving skills that I'll have forever. I passed my road test on my first try. Highly recommend!

  Send your kids to this driving school!  John Gillen is a retired RCMP officer who has a great, relaxed demeanour as a driving instructor, providing confidence to his driving students.  Your kids can earn credits to their high school diploma by taking the Graduated License Program - it reduces their novice license by 6 months as well!
