Mick was a great teacher. I really learned a lot during the driving lessons and he made the classes fun. I would definitely recommend Advanced Road Craft to anyone looking for a driving school.

Prior to signing up for the G1 course at Advanced Road Craft, I did a lot of research on driving schools in KW. I wanted to get my money's worth for classes and in car sessions (as anyone would)! I based my decision to attend on the many glowing online reviews, and I can definitely say that they are true! I had a very positive experience at ARC, and would recommend it to anyone, no matter their age (I'm 26).
Mick, one of the owners of the school, taught my classes with a focus not only on the basics, but on road safety and defensive driving as well. Emphasizing the last two is very important for new drivers so that they can get into the right mindset for sharing the road. Knowing the rules is of course essential, but if you expect the unexpected, then you won't be surprised (and can hopefully avoid an accident)! They take training and their certifications seriously at ARC, which makes it well worth the cost. (Other lesser schools are rock bottom cheap for a reason!)
The most valuable part of this course was the 10 hours of in car driving instruction. I felt quite scared and lacking in confidence before this course, but now I feel much more prepared and positive about driving! Mick will take you through all the different driving maneuvers, and give you road experience in the city, country, residential areas, and even highway (which you can only do with a certified instructor). Mick is respectful and friendly during the driving sessions, making it a very pleasant and educational experience (even fun)! I don't know about you, reader, but this kind of experience seems to be rare for driving schools in the area!
Overall, you can't go wrong picking ARC as your driving school. I feel much more prepared to take my G2 test, and in general on the roads. Thanks again for the great experience!

Amazing driving school! After being told by many of my friends, who went to DIFFERENT driving schools, that driving school "sucked" and the instructors were bad, I was worried about completing my G1 exit course and actually dreaded it... but thankfully my friend Lauren referred me to ARC, as she had done her schooling there, and I am SO glad I chose this school. The price isn't super cheap like other schools in KW, but it's not at all bad either, and those super cheap schools are the ones that have terrible reviews from people who had bad experiences, my friends included! Mick was my instructor for both my in-class and in-car lessons, and he was absolutely wonderful to have as a teacher! He is kind, very helpful and informative, and makes you feel totally comfortable. It was made very clear to me and I'm sure other students as well, that the instructors at ARC care about your safety and truly want you to be a good driver. Overall I had a wonderful experience doing my course at Advanced Road Craft, and I look forward to doing my road test in September and obtaining my G2! I will definitely recommend this school to my friends and family, and to anyone else who is looking for the best driving school to attend in KW! Thanks a million!!

Definitely an A+ experience, by far the best driving school in KW, the teacher is super nice, and he genuinely cares about every student. The Desk lady is also very nice and they both give a very warm, loving environment in the school. Thank you for teaching me how to drive, and being such good people too 👏👏👏. Definitely suggest to anyone looking for a driving school.

I am so glad to have been recommended to Advanced Road Craft! I honestly can picture no other driving school measuring up. The quality of teaching, the welcoming atmosphere and the professionalism and passion from both my in class instructor Wendy and in car instructor Mick was wonderful. I learned more than I thought I would, with valuable lessons that will stay with me. Another thing that was great was that I got to take the in car sessions together with my sister, that way gaining even more experience. I don't know about other schools, but here I felt like I wasn't just another number, to be lost amidst a sea of students. I felt like my education, and my succeeding, really mattered to my instructors. And they took their time, and personal interest, to make sure each student was really getting the most out of the lessons. Overall I had a really well rounded, positive and enjoyable experience! I would highly recommend ARC to anyone looking for an amazing driving school!

I have been to other driving schools in Toronto, and failed my G1 exit test twice before coming to Advanced Road Craft in Kitchener. The quality of service and instruction that I got at ARC is significant in comparison. Trustworthy, professional, attentive, and great customer service. Worth every penny and I will be coming back for other lessons they offer (winter, highway, etc.)! A+ for Mick (in-class) and Andrew (in-car) as instructors!

I have been to other driving schools in Toronto, and failed my G1 exit test twice before coming to Advanced Road Craft in Kitchener. The quality of service and instruction that I got at ARC is significant in comparison. I took the in-class lessons at ARC (even though at first I wasn't planning to) and found that I learned more in that class, especially from the perspective of motorcycles and trucks on the road as Mick (instructor) also teaches AZ and M licenses. The in-car portion was taught by Andrew and again, I was impressed by the quality and professionalism. He is calm and trustworthy. Doesn't go on his phone or make students run errands (you would be surprised how many car instructors do!). What I liked about Andrew is his constant reminders, compliments, tips and moral support throughout the lesson. This driving school is worth every penny and I will be coming back for their highway lessons and winter driving course! A+ company! I PASSED MY G2!

Fantastic!Advanced Road Craft was great to work with.My son was very nervous about starting his training and after the first day in class he was totally at ease. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. They run a very thorough course and in car training which enabled my son to get 98% on his G2. I would recommend Advanced Road Craft to anyone and I have already.Mick is a pleasure to work with and really understands this age group.

Before signing my son up I reviewed the website which was well laid out, then called and was able to speak to someone right away. My son enjoyed the class time and the in-car. I also registered my daughter for a 1 hour review before her G test (she passed). Mick seems like a great teacher and I can genuinely recommend him and Advanced Roadcraft.
