Good to know
Questions we get a lot
Is this the MTO beginner course?
No. Private lessons don't shorten the wait for your G2 road test and aren't an MTO-approved BDE program. If that's what you're after, take our Beginner Driver Education course.
Who can book?
Anyone with a valid Ontario licence or learner's permit.
Is there a rate for BDE students?
Yes. If you took BDE with us, a single lesson is $49.99 and Lesson Plus is $99.99, plus HST.
Can I use your car for my road test?
Yes, with Lesson Plus, Private 5 Road Test Prep or Private 10 Road Test Prep. Book Lesson Plus and Private 5 Road Test Prep at least 14 days before your test, and Private 10 Road Test Prep at least 30 days before.
Can I use my own car?
Yes, we can provide instruction in your vehicle.
