I had a great experience learning with Pavel. He is an excellent instructor and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for lessons. He’s very informative and helpful, and we even did a few mock tests to make sure I was ready for the real test. Thanks to him, I passed my G test easily! Read Less

I had an excellent experience learning with Pavel. From the very first lesson, he was patient, professional, and very knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly and made sure I understood both the rules and the practical skills needed to drive confidently. Pavel remained calm and encouraging throughout my lessons, which really helped build my confidence behind the wheel. His tips and guidance during practice sessions made a huge difference, and thanks to his support, I passed my driving test effortlessly on my first attempt. I highly recommend Pavel to anyone in Guelph looking for a reliable and supportive driving instructor! Read Less

The best driving school in Guelph. After having a terrible experience with Guelph Driving School I was so happy to switch to National after a friend recommended it. The staff here is caring, supportive, and cares much more about your success than your money. Gabriel is the BEST driving instructor. He is extremely knowledgeable, accommodating, and dedicated to each of his students. National may be slightly more expensive than other driving schools in Guelph but it is honestly worth every penny!

I highly recommend this driving school! My in-class teacher Terry was great; he was thorough with everything, really funny and made the class very enjoyable. My in-car instructor Gabriel was extremely helpful and explained everything very well. I couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor. He is hilarious and always made the lesson fun and entertaining. What a guy! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with National Defense driving school! Read Less

I'd rate ten stars if I could! I began with in class lessons in the Winter/Spring of 2016. I passed and was able to get my G2 with no issues. I recently decided to have a brush up lesson with Gabe again before trying for my G license. I passed with flying colours! Couldn't have done with without this driving school and I'm so grateful to them. I recommend everyone I know to go see Gabe! See you on the road! Read Less

Gabriel was an awesome instructor, made it really fun to learn and made me comfortable behind the wheel fast. I was an extremely nervous driver before but now I am much more confident. He really focuses on safety and makes it really easy to understand. Read Less

I was recommended national Defensive drivers training by a friend because she said their instructors were very easy to learn from as well as comfortable to talk to. In the course of my in-car lessons I enjoyed it very much as well as greatly improved my driving techniques. Not only was it really easy for me to understand Terrys method of teaching, I felt very comfortable talking to him casually as well. I was previously with Young Drivers training, the course was not too bad but the private in-car lessons weren't very great. I felt rushed and my instructor got frustrated with me making me feel stressed. So when I Finished with YD I still didn't feel ready. After I took private in-car lessons with NDDT and immensely improved my driving and passed my G2 road test! I cannot thank Terry enough and I highly highly highly recommend him! Read Less

I chose National Defensive Driver Training because my boyfriend had taken the class before me. My classroom experience was great. I took the course during March Break and other than having to wake up at 7am for four days, I had a pleasant experience. The class was always proactive and engaged. The teacher went through every subject thoroughly and the workbook was incredibly helpful and informative. My in-class and in-car instructor was Terry who has had over 20 years of experience. I learned how to parallel park and back-in (things I used to think were too hard to do) with clear and concise steps, that were super easy to follow. Every demonstration was followed by clear instructions, answers to all of my questions and repeated if necessary. Anything I had trouble with, Terry would give me extra tips and tricks to get it right. Not only did I feel very relax and comfortable driving with Terry, but I never felt judged or stupid, even when I made stupid mistakes. I just want to thank NDDT for the great learning experience that I had. I recommended Terry to a friend who needed brush-up lessons before getting her G2. She's a former student of Young Drivers and not only is she driving better, but she's enjoying it as well! Read Less

I decided on Defensive Driver Training because it is a ministry approved course and I liked their video. I couldn't be more pleased. My daughter feels safe and confident with Terry's instruction and can't wait to do her road test. Her skills improve with every lesson and safe defensive driving is obviously the key objective. I was scared to think of my 16 year old daughter out on the roads but now I'm comfortable that she has all the skills necessary to stay safe. Thank you! Read Less
