Durham Drivers Academy

I booked a single lesson with them to practice for my G test (which I had failed previously). I was very nervous to re-take it but the instructor was very helpful at reassuring me that I was a good driver. He identified all the areas I could improve on (checking blind spots more) and helped me thoroughly practice them. He also gave me a little more time than I had payed for. Overall I was very satisfied, it definitely gave me the confidence needed to pass my test! Thanks!

I recently completed my driver's education program with Durham Drivers, and I must say that my overall experience was quite positive. The program provided both online and in-car instruction, and I am delighted to share my thoughts on each aspect.The online portion of the class was exceptionally well-detailed and comprehensive. The course materials covered all the necessary topics, from traffic laws and road signs to defensive driving techniques. The content was presented in an organized and user-friendly manner, allowing me to progress at my own pace. I particularly appreciated how the online lessons addressed every little detail, leaving no room for confusion or uncertainty.The convenience of booking and setting up the classes with Durham Drivers was impressive. The process was simple and hassle-free, allowing me to find suitable time slots for my in-car sessions without any difficulty. The staff was responsive and accommodating, making the entire scheduling experience a breeze. I found their professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction commendable.When it came to the in-car sessions, I found them to be relatively easy and well-structured. The instructors were experienced and patient, providing clear instructions and guidance throughout the lessons. They ensured that I understood the practical aspects of driving, including proper vehicle control, maneuvering techniques, and essential safety precautions. The instructors were receptive to questions and offered helpful feedback to improve my skills on the road.One aspect that stood out during my time with Durham Drivers was the emphasis on real-world scenarios. The instructors went beyond the basic curriculum and shared valuable insights and tips based on their own experiences. This approach helped me develop a better understanding of the challenges I might encounter while driving and prepared me to handle them effectively.Overall, my experience with Durham Drivers was positive, and I highly recommend their driver's education program. The detailed online portion of the class, combined with the ease of booking and the well-structured in-car sessions, ensured that I received a comprehensive and convenient learning experience. With their attention to detail and commitment to student success

Excellent experience - My daughter needed some refresher drives before her G exam. Spoke to Sid who was excellent !! He arrived on time and took her through the passing requirements . Needless to say she passed without any mistakes ... Thx Sid .. Will recommend again !!

Just finished my driving today and it was an amazing experience! The instructor was fantastic, he helped teach skills, was patient, funny and overall a really good person running a really good school! Highly recommend for new drivers that need to learn!

I had a G licence for 20 years then had my licence medically suspended for over 5 years. I had to go through the entire driving process again but without the waiting periods. I passed my G1 on July 17th 2019. I contacted Syed to make arrangements for lessons in preparation for my G2 (G1 road exit test) booked on July 29th, 2019. Syed was an excellent instructor. He was very flexible fitting me in his busy schedule and during my lessons he was attentive, supportive and focused only on my driving abilities during the lesson. Syed used positive reinforcement, praise and was very attentive to skills I needed to work on. I received my G2 licence today with a perfect score during the road test. Will be going for my G road test (G2 exit road test) in a few weeks and will continue with lessons with Syed. I would highly recommend Syed and Durham Drivers Academy. For new drivers I would recommend taking the classroom with driving lessons.

This driving school is the BEST!!!! My driving instructor was super nice. He was taught me all the proper driving techniques and gave some tips on what to expect on my driving test. I HIGHLY recommended this school!!!

If I can give this instructor Saheed a -0 rating I would! He was a terrible instructor! He didn’t teach me anything! I felt like an Uber driver! I spent 10 hours driving straight, left or right! I was taught absolutely NOTHING! He never shows up on time! He was not reliable! On top of that he asked me for gas money!! Now I am with Provincial Driving School, and let me tell you.. they are worth it! Don’t waste your time and money with this school! I guarantee you, you will not achieve anything!

If I could give this place a 0 start I would.I called for support and got yelled at.First time I called, I told them I want my in person driving classes and the person told me that my time had finished, to send him a message with my name and he would talk to the manager to give me a solution.Three days later, I called and the same person said I lost my money, I have to pay again even if I didn't get any in person driving class. I didnt get any communication from the school that I was in danger of loosing my money or similar - I said. I asked to talk to the manager and the man started screaming at me.I feel so frustrated, sad and angry.How an organization in Canada can have the policy to deny their customers the possibility to talk to the manager to find a solution and instead scream and scare them away via phone.Please, don't choose this place, don't commit my mistake.

I highly recommend this driving school! So many driving schools didn't respond to phone calls and emails, but Syed was very responsive and a great instructor. He's honest and calm, which is just what you need when you're preparing for a road test. Thank you for all your support!!

Today was my last in-car and I have had a great experience the entire time. The instructor is very easy going and understandable. He teaches you exactly how to do things and gives you little tricks to remember for your G2 Road Test. I’m confident that I will do great on my test thanks to this course! Highly recommend this one
