Cosmin is the best! After 3 lessons I was able to pass my Class 5 road test on the first try…read more Cosmin is very professional, and experienced. Once he has an idea of your experience level he will have all the lessons planned out in advance to help you pass. His strength is helping you learn the importance of safety on the road, while also helping you gain confidence in your skills. I think the price of the lessons is very reasonable. 90 minutes per lesson is great because it literally takes at least 30 minutes to warm up, and you will get a lot of practice encountering lots of different scenarios on the road. It's a great value for the price. Money well spent. Thanks again Cosmin! Oh by the way, he is very popular so it is likely that you have to book well in advance!

Ellen is an amazingly incredible instructor! I have always…read morebeen a bit afraid of driving since I was 16, because I am relatively small by height and my visions are often blocked compared to average drivers. I have previously tried driving lessons with 2 other instructors, and while I had good experience, I could not understand how to drive (like finding reference point to centre my cars, understanding direction of my car, how to overcome my blindspots due to my height, understanding the car mechanics, anticipating situations to be a defensive driver, and growing the confidence behind the wheels). Being introduced to Ellen by chance was the best thing that happened! First thing first, Ellen and I get along. Ellen has a friendly demeanor to make students feel comfortable and welcomed, allowing students to open up about their concerns. Ellen is very patient and encouraging. She took the time to understand what I needed and where my weak spots are to target and mitigate in the driving process. She has her ways of helping students to understand driving, put the right checks in place to follow all the rules and be a safe driver, as well as drilling into students' mind various scenarios which could happen during driving allowing the students to become a more defensive driver. In essence, she is transferring her years of driving experience and knowledge to her students in every single lesson. She also puts in a lot of efforts to each and everyone of her students. In the process, students can feel that she really cares for you. I have now officially passed my road test and I am so excited! Thanks so much to Ellen! I am sharing my own experience here and making a recommendation. I know everyone has a different way of learning and a different experience, compared to me. But I can share that this was my journey and my experience in driving! Thank you Ellen!

I took lessons from Rain and Robert - they are both very good instructors. They are both gentle and nice, and taught me really well about how to drive safely. They also clarified my questions I had for flow of traffic , intersection, reference point and road rules. I also like the fact that they are consistent with the car they drive -so even when I was with different instructor, I was able to drive consistently. The administration was also fast and efficient. I can pay the lesson via cheque or email transfer and I can can easily book lessons via text or email.

I highly recommend her!

To say that my experience driving with Donald was not satisfactory would be an understatement. He…read moreconstantly wastes time asking useless questions and asking me what I think I should be doing instead of giving straightforward and clear instructions. Whenever I was uncertain about the answers to the questions, he responded with a tone of condescension instead of offering supportive clarifications. I tried my best to develop a good rapport with him, but unfortunately every interaction thus far with him has felt like walking on eggshells as he switches to being unkind and even sarcastic out of the blue. Driving with him was an absolute chore, because it was impossible not to practically always be in a negative emotional state due to his frequent backhanded comments and demeaning tone of voice. It was a struggle to focus on my driving since I was often upset as a result of our unpleasant interactions. I will not deny that Donald has a good understanding of driving. However, his interpersonal and communication skills are subpar, to say the least. Having the knowledge and skills is one thing, but being able to communicate them in a polite and effective manner are another. This is a warning to anyone considering SenSen driving school. Do yourself a huge favour, and save your time and money. Look elsewhere for driving lessons.

He is: * friendly * punctual * caring * professional I was fortunate to have found Alex -- he is the ONLY reason I was able to pass my road test. I had taken my ICBC Road Test once, but I failed and for many years since then, I have been in the perpetual cycle of re-acquiring my Class 7 Learner's Permit. I never really recovered from flunking my road test, but Alex assured me that we could make it happen. RESULT: I passed! He somehow managed to provide me with the confidence and competence to pass and get my "N" (Class 7) He is a miracle worker. I cannot thank him enough, he is an amazing teacher and if you are a committed student, he will get you where you need to go. Happy driving and thank you, Alex -- you are the best!
