Very happy with driving instructor Bob, I can't say enough on how much he helped with my driving skills and passing my road test. I get driving nerves and he was great at calming my nerves and building my confidence. I previously used another driving company and failed the road test due to nerves. With Bob I was fine and passed. I can't say enough on how good he is at his job. Will be using him for my highway next year. Thanks to Bob Toronto driving is no longer intimidating. Read Less

This is the best driving school out there. Very organized and the teacher, Bob, is very knowledgeable. I went in there thinking that I was going to be bored out of my mind, but it was actually very interesting and the time went by fast. I recommend this driving school if you want to be a good driver!

I atteneded the school on Broadview. My in class instructor Faheem Malik was amazing. Very humours made the class very fun. My in class instructors name is Khalid. He is a very nice person but I had 4 in class sessions with him so far.. He canceled three and was late for the one I went too. I called and spoke to the manager. His name was Taha. He was nice on the phone. I told him I took days off work to have the classes and I don't have time to wait I need a new instructor with availability. I have been waiting a month to get my in car class. He told me my new instructor doesn't have availability until the middle of September. Are you serious? I took days off work to attend these classes. I shouldn't have to wait three months to get my License. WILL NEVER RECOMMEND!!!!  VERY UNPROFESSIONAL Read Less

This is an honest review of my experience with AMB driving school. I attended the school on Nugget Avenue for a 4-day course mid-July 2017.The in-class portion was good. However, I have spent the last MONTH texting/calling my driving instructor, the in class supervisor, and the manager trying to book my in-car portion of the course. No luck so far. For this reason, I have given the school a 1* rating. I have contacted (so far):-The driving instructor Nasim (no response)-the in-class instructor Saquib (referred to the manager)-the office ("we'll get back to you" )-the manager (in progress)Note: If anything changes in these circumstances I will adjust this review based on the in-car experience. It'll likely be similar to the in-class review below. Hopefully, that time comes soon. So far my experience with this company has been poor and I would NOT recommend it to anyone else because, though the theory portion is great, to really learn how to drive a car you have to actually get IN a car. In-class As I said before, the in-class is great. Instructor: My instructor's name was Saqib. He's very approachable and willing to answer any questions you may have. He provides ample time for breaks so you can stretch your legs and refresh your brain. He also tries to make the class content fun to learn by using jokes, in class games, and real-life scenarios. The class: You sit at a desk in a classroom like setting. The instructor flips through PowerPoint slides. The slides are very easy to understand and are sometimes interactive. At points, there are also videos to better illustrate what you're learning. Also, there are 2 quizzes per day that help ensure your paying attention in class. According to the instructor, no cell phones are allowed at any time (other than break) or you may be asked to leave. We were warned of this on the first day of class and everyone listened. Day 1: * Attitude Skills Knowledge* Types of licenses* Demert points* Reasons for various laws* Types of signs* Overview of the circle-check* Gear review* Blind-spot review* Smith system reviewDay 2* How your eyes work (peripheral vision)* MSB* Space cushion* Hazards* Risk management* City/country/freeway driving* Intersections * Turns* Other road users* Entering/exiting intersectionsDay 3* Crashing -collision vs. accidents* Safety features in car* When to call 911* What to do at a crash scene* Drinking and driving* Drugs and drowsy drivingDay 4* Adverse driving conditions* Headlight usage* Night vs. Day driving* Advances front lighting system* Driving in Rain, snow, fog, sun* Vehicle purchase* Car Maintenance* Vehicle insurance basics Read Less

I would recommend AMB driving school! The teacher, Aamir was great and he really tried to make the course fun. The slideshow he used to teach us made the class a lot more interesting! So excited to start my in car lessons Read Less

My in class instructor was very receptive and patient regarding any questions or clarification I needed. Work desk area would be appreciated for comfort but that does not affect my rating because that's not my instructors fault. Have not done in car lessons yet- update to follow. Read Less

Overall the in class course was great and information filled. I feel a lot more confident in what I need to do to be the best driver on the road. Does get boring but they do their best to fit in some fun activities to keep you awake and focused. Next will be my driving lessons.. I'll make sure to update my review at that point. Read Less

My driving instructor was sleeping in the car while I was driving. It was incredibly unprofessional. I understand that sometimes people work long shifts but that doing that with less experienced drivers could be dangerous. I would advise anyone to avoid this driving school. Read Less

If you have driving experience this school is fine for certificate for insurance and stuff like that.If you don't, it could be a very bad experience with Indian instructors explaining things in a way that can't be very well understood if you are not a native speaker yourself. Such hands-on skill could be tricky to teach  if you are struggling with the driving while the instructor is busy giving you unclear instructions and feedback about things happened two minutes ago. Not recommended. Read Less

My instructor was 20 minutes late picking me up at EVERY lesson and showed up FORTY minutes late picking me up the day of the road test. He's lucky we still arrived on time or I wouldn't have paid him the full amount. I'm being nice here not mentioning the instructors name. The tips he gave were good, but I would not recommend this service based on punctuality. Read Less

Disappointing I would not recommend, had used this for my daughter. Although the in class sessions were great, AMB relies on their instructors to arrange the 1-1 driving lessons.  The first instructor did not return any messages so asked for another driver after 2 weeks of no response.  The second instructor has limited time available, only one night every 2 weeks it seems.  My daughter has only taken 1 driving lesson in one month.  Waiting for her other lesson and they try to push you to take 2 hour lessons. Strongly recommend that you use another school.  I guess this is why they ask you to pay in cheque or cash as there is no recourse for refunds. Read Less

I chose this school because of the reviews of Faheem, who was fantastic. I should have paid more attention to the negative reviews of the in-car instructors. I'm on my third instructor in over four months and I've only managed 7 1/2 hours of driving time. The first instructor they gave me wouldn't pick me up from the west side of the city. Second instructor took weeks to return texts/calls and would only book one lesson at a time, a week or more in advance, cancelled frequently, and was late. My third and final in-car instructor had me drive him around the city running his errands, was heavy on the horn, and had to stop for smoke breaks. Six hours in-car with him and I still haven't parallel parked or backed in to a parking spot (although he asked me to switch seats so he could demonstrate how). This school has completely turned me off driving. Horrible. Read Less

Close to impossible to communicate with their drivers. The school just gives a random driver your phone number and he/she will contact you when he feels like it. I had to deal with 4 different instructors and they all choose not to reply when you ask for different times. Additionally, they do NOT do pick ups downtown. The supervisor does not even know where Spadina and Queens Quay is in relation to Yonge and Bloor - pretty basic information for a DOWNTOWN driving school. Read Less

Malik is a great in class instructor, he's funny and engaging and has entertaining stories to brighten up a dull topic.  But beware if you get the in car instructor Khyber (pronounced Hyber) He is the most unprofessional, rude, demanding person, changing your lesson time without asking you, basically just demanding it like you owe him something.  He also has terrible personal hygiene, he smells bad in the summer, picks his nose, and clips his nasty fingernails in the car! MORE than once! How disgusting! Should have asked to change instructors but I was only mildly irritated in the beginning and only turned to pure hatred in the last couple of classes. He also pressures you to do 2 hour classes instead of 1 hour classes even though you're completely entitled to do 1 hour classes. Stay away. Read Less

As another of my wife's projects she's decided that I need to learn to drive (legally) despite working downtown and being a short 30 min bus & train ride from workWhile I was skeptical at best of what to expect for the in-class portion of this particular driving school I've pressed ahead Currently I am 2 days into a 4 day course (to be completed next weekend) to complete the 20 hours in-class the Ministry of Transportation requires (they are tough on road laws yet there are so many horrible drivers on the road #justsaying)Considering I have an extremely short attention span and I live in my phone going phone-less for 6 hours a day and learning about road signs doesn't exactly sound like the best use of ones weekend Our instructor Malik has come across as engaging funny and truly a joy to listen to. Coming from some one who has attended hundreds of corporate training sessions he has set the bar really high for what I expect of my in-car experience.In-class there are quizzes tests and several opportunities to interact with other persons in the class. While the venue isn't anything top notch or ascetically pleasing you have to remember the reason you are there - the location doesn't have to be held at the Hilton.Regarding the price the package I have selected covers 10 hours in-car and 20 hours in-class for a total of $399.00 including tax. Should you wish to use their car for the driving test that option is available for an additional $145.00 While I still remain a tad bit skeptical of the industry as a whole I have enjoyed Malik's engaging teaching style and the persons in this particular class greatly. I might even have gained some enthusiasm for becoming a 'real driver' #thankyouwife #ambdrivingschool Read Less
