In-class lessons with Sabir were informative and fun, in-car lessons was a great experience and really helped me with my confidence with driving. Altaf did a great job teaching and was always reassuring! I passed my G2 first try!

Sabir and Leaside Driving are not just the best driving instructors in the world, but also some of the most patient, supportive, and dedicated teachers I have ever had. They made every lesson enjoyable, helped build my confidence behind the wheel, and always took the time to explain things clearly. Thanks to their guidance, I unlocked my maximum driving potential. I am incredibly grateful for all Sabir’s help and would highly recommend them to anyone learning to drive.

My instructor, Kamran, was excellent. He took the time to focus on the areas where I made mistakes and worked with me until I felt confident and consistent. His patience and calm approach made me feel comfortable behind the wheel and helped build my confidence. I would definitely recommend Leaside Driving!

Aminul Sarkar was a great instructor who taught me what I needed to learn to complete my g2 test. Within a very short amount of time I went from being a new driver with no experience to a very knowledgeable driver and to passing my road test. Even when I had trouble with parking he showed me different ways that helped me. Thank you very much Aminul for being an excellent driving instructor and helping me pass my driving test.

Attended Leaside Driving academy this past fall for the in class portion, originally dreaded it (I just finished my MBA and got my G1 so I was dreading another class) but Sabir made the in class portion thoroughly enjoyable, keeps you attentive, has you participating in class. Very worth the prices and very worth it overall. Had Kamran for in car lessons. He was very easy to learn from, works with you and any time you want to go drive throughout the week/Weekends. Highly recommend Leaside Driving Academy to any new drivers, or older drivers such as myself…Anyways got my G2 today.🥳

I was inquiring about this school for someone and guess what I found out. These are the same people who ran Peter Driving School. Apparently, they were partners and closed that driving school. A lot of people lost their money. The guy who took your money is now running Leaside Driving School. Go to them to get your refund. The owner at Leaside was a partner at Peter Driving School. Go and find out for yourself. Beware, they are scammers and will do everything possible to deny this claim. Criminals!

I have learned a lot about driving. The instructor Sabir is so knowledgeable and funny. The way he taught during the class made me realize that driving could be fun but you have to be responsible driver. What i like most of this experience was he shared life lessons too!! That's a bonus!!😊 I definitely will recommend Leaside driving academy.
