I needed to prepare for full-license road test after moving to Canada. Instructor is very comfortable to work with and she explained me not only the gaps in my understanding of BC laws but also improved my driving style to a more safe and fluent. I failed the first road test due to my own mistake and successfully passed the second one. I recommend Mint Driving Academy to ensure that you don't miss something important in your driving even if you practiced before with a friend or relative. Read Less

10 hours with Duda is all I needed to pass my road test. I was a difficult customer but she figured out what I need to learn and at the same time boost my confidence. Very patient, although I know I drove her crazy, always encouraging me. Highly recommended for a new driver. Thank you so much Duda. Read Less

Duda is a high experienced professional and I had a pleasure to have her as an instructor. She helped me to pass my road test, was very flexible with time for lessons and the price is affordable.

I tried teaching my son to drive. He failed. I then ordered 10 lessons from Duda for my son. Her prices are exceedingly reasonable. Most importantly was the improvement I saw in my son's driving. His road sense, fine maneuver control, confidence, and test basics all improved massively. He is now an N driver and I have peace of mind when he takes the car. My daughter will also learn with Duda. I recommend her to anyone. (She is also a very nice person) Read Less

I would highly recommend Duda from Mint Driving Academy to anyone who wants to learn to drive. I am an anxious driver at the best of times but Duda made the process as stress-free and enjoyable as it could be. She is patient and clearly very experienced as a driving teacher. She's never critical and always supportive, always remaining calm and making constructive feedback when I made mistakes. Read Less

I would highly recommend Duda from Mint Driving Academy to anyone who wants to learn to drive. I am an anxious driver at the best of times but Duda made the process as stress-free and enjoyable as it could be. She is patient and clearly very experienced as a driving teacher. She's never critical and always supportive, always remaining calm and making constructive feedback when I made mistakes.It was important to me to have a good teacher because I originally learned how to drive in the UK driving on the opposite side of the road & driving standard car. She will come and pick you up for every lesson which is incredibly convenient and she made sure I always had a full hour & half of driving time, she was always on time and usually early, as a result I passed my class 5 road test 1st time.

First of all, I would like to say Mint Driving is an awesome driving school. The driving instructor taught me not only driving, but also the way of thinking.I was quite new in this area and had 0 experience before. Before having classes with Mint driving's instructor, I had two instructors from other driving school. The whole experience was like an eternity. After more than 30 hours lessons, I failed 4 times, and every time was worse than last time. I felt OK when I was with the instructor, because I just do what they told me to do and without thinking, sometimes they chat too much on the topics not related to driving and even eating during the lessons. Those bad experiences pushed me to find a really professional and good driving school. With friend's recommendation, I started to learn driving with Mint Driving's instructor. She is an amazing teacher, really smart and professional, she taught me in a totally different way. I called it as "independent thinking", she pushed me to talk a lot to myself and let me judge my performance. That worked, I started to think out of the box, assuming nobody sit beside me. That is what a new driver really needs. Also she is very patient, we usually have couple of minute's questions to discuss before and after driving, even sometimes I have questions in the middle of the class, we pulled over and talk about it very seriously and leave more time to practice the problems I had. Now I got my "N" license and started a new journey. Thanks Mint, I felt very confident and safe when driving. Therefore, I strongly recommend this awesome school not only to my families and friends, but also everyone who would like to learn driving. That would be a treasure for whole lfe. Read Less

Duda is a great instructor! She makes sure you understand every lesson you take and not only for the purpose of passing the road test but for your future as a driver as well. She teaches you details that normal driving school wouldn't, she will make you feel more confident about your driving, provides you with the knowledge you need as a good driver and will give you the essential things in driving. I definitely recommend her! Thank you Duda for all your help! Passed class 5 on my first try! Read Less

Dudda is the best driving instructor around. Not only is she very hands on with her teaching, she also explains the reasoning behind every lesson and takes time to make sure you understand it.
