West End Driving School

Ahad is a wonderful teacher and helped me pass my N even though I was a very very nervous driver in the beginning. He gave good constructive criticism, drew diagrams to help me learn, constantly gave advice, and gives great instruction on how to parallel and reverse park. I am very grateful to him and would recommend him to anyone!

I took a few 'polishing driving' lessons with Ahad and I am looking forward to more. I failed my first try and that's why I decided to go with private lessons. Since practicing with him I feel much more confident in the canadian roads. For those reviews that say he is strict, it is better to learn well at first than to correct vicious mistakes later. He is a very kind soul and incredibly observant of every maneuver, he called me out on things I wasn't even aware I was doing. Highly recommend him!

Saeed was very nice and I took two classes with him. Unfortunately we did not at all focus on any maneuver driving or skilled driving. He just took me to downtown and completely focused on signs. And to my understanding, they can't really help you with your test route if you're taking your test anywhere in Kingsway or elsewhere. I failed thanks

I went from zero experience and a lot of self doubt to passing my class 7 road test on the first shot after doing the 13 lesson package.I seriously recommend the package to anyone who's thinking about it, the lessons were incredibly valuable.Ahad is very informative and will take care to focus on the area's you need the most improvement, not to mention beautiful parallel parking.

Ahad is an experienced driving instructor, who takes his work seriously. I took 6 classes with him before passing my road test in first try. I owe all my driving confidence to him and his valuable instructions. He knows how to build the base and pillars of driving for his students. Highly recommend him.

I had the most wonderful driving experience. I took 7 lessons before my driving test and passed on my first try!. was given very helpful tips as well as constructive criticism that I will forever cherish as it made me a better driver. I am so very thankful and appreciate how accommodating the instructor was in terms of the my schedule.Thank you West End driving school!! :)

I was completely terrified about driving but taking lessons with Ahad helped me get over the initial fear. He is a great driving instructor who is very knowledgeable about the ICBC road tests. He can be a bit tough but is thorough and makes sure that you are prepared for your test.

First and foremost, I passed my exam first try with West End Driving School, which is the most important thing. You will be well prepared for your test if you take the appropriate number of lessons recommended and (of course) follow the instructor's advice.On the whole the lessons were fine. At times, however, I found the instructor to be somewhat unhelpful. I would, for example, have benefitted from being talked through certain intersections I had never done before on approach, rather than have him take his wheel and position the car for me. I think more effective communication on his part would have made my experience much less stressful at times, but, as i said at the top - you will pass your exam if you take the course.

Great instructor, very helpful and taught me everything I needed to know to pass my Class 7 road test! I went from know absolutely nothing about driving to passing on my first try after a full lesson package. My test was booked in North Van so he even took me there for a few lessons to familiarize myself with the streets and signs. Definitely recommend to anybody learning how to drive :)

The worse instructor I've ever had. You DO have other options.I purchased his package for my level 7 and when I told him I didn't want to put up with his teaching anymore and asked for a refund, he refused. So be careful before choosing him as an instructor.Firstly, he is an incompetent driver who cannot explain basic driving skills, let alone how to teach it. He's a terrible human being who in general is very controlling and immature, and emotionally punishing when it comes to mistakes that any beginner would make. A calm attitude is all that was needed.As a first time learner, I am stressed during my lessons. But his emotional and aggressive attitude only further intensified my stress levels. He's the worse human being I've ever had to deal with.
