I took the inclass at Young Drivers in BC decades ago. I needed to get a G when I moved to Ottawa. Instructor Dan from Orleans location gave me a refresher course and it’s amazing. I still remembered all the things I learnt initially and having a refresher this time just proved that YD has very high standards and instructors are super knowledgable. Soon my son will be signing up for his own course at YD.

Super friendly instructors and an amazing learning environment! They were able to make me a confident and safe driver during my lessons and gave me all the tools to feel safe while on the road. The instructors knew what to say at what time and gave great feedback. Such a great experience!

The school was instrumental to my success. The online lessons were very detailed and thorough. Though the pacing could be improved while going through the chapters. I did appreciate the ability to go back to any previous chapter to refresh my memory.
My in-car lessons were with Dan Tessier. As an anxious driver, he made me at ease and took the fear out of driving. Full of great tips, calm and patient. Can’t recommend him enough.

I had a wonderful experience with Young Drivers. My instructors; Sacha Baird, Philippe Cyr, and Aaron Wainwright, were all absolutely amazing. They helped me to not only become a safe driver but also to be comfortable driving. The program that Young Drivers provides overall, is a very realistic approach on driving.

I had a great experience learning to drive with Aaron from Young Drivers. He was very clear and patient when teaching and unbelievably nice! He is very reassuring which is awesome; especially if you’re nervous come test day. I would recommend him as a driving instructor to anyone.

I have nothing but incredible things to say about Young Drivers! I was looking to get my G license after having my G2 for a few years, and Young Drivers was so helpful from the time I called to set up some lessons to the time I did my road test! I had Aaron as my instructor in Ottawa. He was such a great teacher, and really spent lots of time with me going over things that I was particularly nervous about (such as highway/freeway driving). Aaron and the rest of the team at Young Drivers were consistently patient, supportive and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone! :) I'm so much more confident in my driving skills and very glad to have finally gotten my G license - thank you Aaron and YD!

I had a great experience learning to drive with YD. I enjoyed their program, and think the price reflects the quality. I was told by police officers that this is the BEST school to go with if you want to get a good foundation and learn the right driving habits. Shout out to Matt Haddad for helping me along the way to getting my G2! I was such a nervous driver I thought I would never get to this point, but here I am. Would highly recommend to every new driver or anyone needing to brush up on skills.

Young drivers is a great way to get into driving without much of a risk. Young drivers also provides an opportunity to simulate G2 test driving which is great for those who don't know what it's like.
