Minoo was my instructor and she is amazing! She is a perfectionist and always pushes you to be your best! I passed on my first try no mistakes all thanks to the wonderful minoo! Highly recommend having her as an instructor she is amazing. She is not only a great driving instructor but she is also a wonderful person.

We had a really good experience with Atlas Driving School. My daughter passed her N on the first try. She took the GLP program and we used the package that includes using their car for the exam, which made the whole process a lot less stressful. She worked with Michelle, who was patient, professional, and easy to work with. Michelle explained things clearly and helped her build confidence behind the wheel. Overall a very positive experience and I’d definitely recommend Atlas Driving School.

Call Atlas right now and ask to book lessons with Andy!! He is an amazing driving instructor who encourages his students to drive confidently and safely, and also helps nervous students like me to see the fun in driving. He has a 97% pass rate for his students, and it is obvious why! His lessons were a game changer for passing my test and building my confidence to be a safe driver. Andy graciously fit me into his busy schedule for a last minute road-test (a week's notice) and we practiced daily for three days together. After each lesson I would review and practice with my parents, and they were shocked at how significantly I improved each day from the day before. Also, Andy is the parking KING so if you are having trouble, I promise he will show you tips that will make parking seem easy. Andy's positive attitude and kindhearted approach to teaching makes his students feel like they can accomplish anything. As happy as I am to now have my license, I will miss driving with Andy! My sister will be booking lessons with him as well, as soon as she is ready to start learning. I only have positive things to say. Thank you, Andy!! P.S. - Also huge thank you to Kesh from the Atlas office for persuading me to choose Atlas driving school and for accommodating my last-minute test. He told me I would have success with Andy, and he was right!

I recently completed my driving lessons with Irem at Atlas Driving School, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Irem is the perfect combination of professional and friendly. She immediately made me feel at ease, which really helped my driving anxiety. Her teaching ability is outstanding; she explains complex rules and maneuvers in a way that is easy to understand and remember. She was incredibly patient and gave clear, constructive feedback that helped me improve with every lesson. Thanks to Irem's guidance, I not only passed my road test but also feel like a genuinely safe and confident driver. Thank you!

Finally passed my Class 5 road test today! After finishing my academic program, I realized how important it is to get a Canadian driver’s license. I’m really glad I chose Atlas Driving School for my Class 5 training. Although I already had a license from another country, I hadn’t driven for almost four years, and I almost forgot how to turn the steering wheel. Most of my lessons were with Chris and Minoo. Since I wasn’t very confident using English for driving terms in the beginning, Chris explained all the rules and right-of-way situations in Mandarin, which helped me learn so much faster. Later, because booking spots were filling up quickly, I also took a few tune-up lessons with Minoo, a wonderful instructor who helped me pay attention to details and boosted my confidence. I’d also like to recommend and thank Tony, Rez, and Steve. Tony explain the intersection left turning for me so well. Me and Rez had an amazing practice just right before the road test. Steve kindly taught me about the reverse parking. I really learned a lot from all of their experience and patience.
