I absolutely loved my experience and highly recommend ADC Driving School! My driving instructor was always kind to me, and he’d always make conversation which helped take away my anxiety when it came to driving. The school helped me feel confident to operate an automobile. I was taught all the necessary skills needed to operate an automobile, and all the laws that go a long with it in an easy to understand manner. I passed my driver’s test first try! I definitely recommend ADC Driving! Thank you for making my experience easy, safe, and overall amazing!

I passed my class 5 drivers test on the first time, thanks to Ricky! I was nervous first starting drivers ed because I’ve heard many terrible stories of bad instructors but Ricky was not one of them. Ricky made me so much more confident in my driving/parking. I have learned many useful skills and techniques with him. We’ve already made the decision that he will be my 2 younger sisters drivers ed instructor! Ricky is friendly, experienced, organized and 100% would recommend!!

Brandon Dull

Ricky is a fantastic teacher whose very patient, focused, and engaged with his students. He makes it a relaxing and safe space so that you can focus on improving your driving, while providing tips and knowledge. Very open and transperant with communication and scheduling.

100% recommend, the instructor (Ricky) made me feel a lot more confident in driving, most chill guy I've met. it was affordable, well organized and a great experience.

Gil Goldzweig

Ricky was great, very professional and extremely nice to talk to which made the driving that much more fun.

Daphne Smith

Ricky is the best driver instructor I have ever had. I’ve taken lessons at Frank’s and AMA in the past and they just can not compare to Ricky’s calming energy, confidence, experience, and advice. He guided me through everything I was uncomfortable with and I was able to keep in contact with him for any questions as well. Thanks to Ricky, I got only 10 points on my road test and passed with flying colours!! I was super confident after passing a mock test with Ricky and therefore did super well on the test. I wish I could give him 10 stars! He is the PRO at parallel parking and lane changing, two things I was originally very fearful for, now I am completely confident in my abilities as a new driver!!

I had an amazing experience. I was taught how to drive from the beginning and also learnt to build confidence. Very good value and quality, professional, excellent and calm way of teaching. I learnt a lot. Thank you

Ricky is a great driving instructor, he is very professional and personable. The "brush up" lesson was very helpful as he helped me fix any mistakes I was making, taught me how to properly park, which gave me a confidence boost!

Francina Agosti

ADC Driving School was essential for passing my road test. It is affordable, the instructor (Ricky) gave me all the tools to pay attention on the details required for the test, and was available with a short notice. The car is also easy to drive, perfect for doing a faultless parking. I highly recommend it!

Will Glenn

Very constructive and insightful criticism, passed me drivers test the first time, teaches good habits and very nice instructors!

Maliya Tiodin-Cruzat

I had a great experience with ADC driving school. I initially started with a different driving school and I was not happy with the instructor or the quality of the lessons I received. When I booked my road test, I started feeling worried because I felt I wasn't prepared enough for my road test due to the lack of quality I received from the driving school I started with. I then found ADC driving school and inquired about pricing for brush up lessons and immediately booked a brush up lesson with them. My very first lesson went great. The instructor I had was named Ricky. He was amazing! He was very nice and I felt very comfortable with him fast. He was attentive and was very helpful. Just in that one brush up lesson, I learned way more and felt way more confident than the 8 hours I had with the other driving school. I then booked 2 more lessons with Ricky, just to ensure I felt confident and ready for my road test. I passed my road test for the first time thanks to Ricky! He definitely gave me that boost. I don't think I would've been able to pass the first time without him!

Cassidy Warne

Ricky was an amazing instructor! Not only did he teach me the skills needed to pass my road test but he went above and beyond and taught me other valuable driving skills too.

Orren Wood

This is a great driving school. Ricky is a really great teacher and person. Very chill, patient and easy to talk to. I had my liscense before taking my lessons and I still learned alot that improved my driving and helped me gain more confidence that I think will last a lifetime. 5 star experience if you don't choose this driving school you are doing yourself a disservice. Thanks Ricky.

Ricky is a professional instructor, highly recommended !!

Katrina Manne

If anyone looking for driving lessons whether for beginners or a brush up , look no further. I've experienced professional and great quality service with instructor Ricky. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed from the beginning and for all our sessions. I've booked one hour brush up lesson right before my road test and Ricky was really reassuring and confident that I'd pass (which I did :D!!), which reduced the level of my exam anxiety quite a bit. Overall, just great teaching techniques on maneuvers, useful tips for all road users, and awesome results. Thank you!

Jason

ADC Driving school is affordable, has great quality lessons and their instructor (Ricky) is a very good and chill instructor. As well as a nice person to meet. He covers everything and is very patient. I felt very relaxed and calm during the lessons with Ricky. Finishing the lessons, i defiantly feel more prepared and the driving felt more polished after i worked on the few things that i was told to work on. I just finished my road test and i would like to thank Ricky one last time for the help and helping me pass! If you are looking for a driving school that can teach you well and that is also affordable, ADC is your driving school.

Exel雪

Very chill and down to earth instructor, everything was taught professionally and most of the things taught were easy to understand. I really enjoyed the lessons because the instructor had a passion in what he did and really wanted you to succeed if you chose him, very patient and professional.

Lyvia Rose Vaillancourt

Thank you so much for your help and patience! I'm a much safer and more confident driver because of your lessons. Wish me luck on my test!

Edward Duff

Thanks to ADC I passed my lvl5 GDL. Ricky is an amazing instructor. I took the insurance reduction package 10/15. The lessons took me from zero experience to confident behind the wheel. Ricky was patient, calm, supportive and informative. The supplied car was clean, comfortable and great to drive. The online course was great too and helped refresh what I had learned previously on the lvl7 exam. To sum up, im delighted I passed my test. I had a great experience with Ricky and I feel like my money was well spent. I'll be recommending ADC to everyone.

Emma Mary McBride

I had two driving lessons with Ricky and I passed my test first try! He gave loads of advice when I was unsure of what to do and also made sure to tell me when I did well in different situations, which made me more confident. Highly recommend this driving school.

malayeka khan

I loved taking classes with Ricky because not only is he a great instructor, he's a great person overall. He made me feel comfortable and was really patient with me and my driving. I would highly recommend taking classes with ADC driving school even if you think you are experienced. Ricky also gave me really good feedback when it came to mock tests and my driving overall. Had a wonderful time with ADC driving school!

Laurie Glenn

Such a great company to deal with. We called last minute to try and get some instruction in before my son's road test and Ricky was able to fit us into the schedule. He was super helpful and gave great instruction. So friendly and responsive with our questions. My son passed his test and Ricky checked in to see how it went. I'd highly recommend this driving school to everyone.

Tessa Crete

I cannot recommend Ricky enough. I was pretty anxious about taking these driving lessons. Thanks to Ricky's overall calm demeanor and patience, he helped me to really work hard on gaining confidence, and skills needed to be a calm proactive driver.

Firas Hussain

My instructor Ricky, was very informative and helped me learn a lot with driving on the road. I got to learn so many things and he helped me overcome the pressure associated with driving. I was pretty scared at first but after his classes, I feel I am a much more confident driver now. He’s a great instructor and I highly recommend choosing this driving school.

Nicole Snow

I passed my class 5 road test on the first attempt. Ricky is very professional and a great instructor. He brought me on the road in the first lesson and highway in the second lesson; it helped me build confidence. He taught me safe driving and parking. I had a good time. I highly recommend him.

Anna Nieb

I'm just on my 2nd session and I still have 3 more, but I have learned a lot already and I know that I can be confident enough to pass my road test after my lessons. Ricky also tried his best to accommodate me knowing how full his schedule is and he really has a lot of patience for somebody like me. :)

Ervin

Ricki is an amazing instructor, he's patient, very engaging and teaches good tips as a new driver. I would highly recommend him!

Jad

I went through a ton of driving instructors in Calgary and no one comes close to Ricky. By far the best instructor who teaches you how to drive confidently and safely. 10/10 I highly recommend you contact Ricky. Also Ricky is laid back so you dont feel nervous driving with him, but at the same time he's 100% focused on the road, keeping you safe, and teaching you how to drive properly.

Ben Niven

Ricky is one of the best driving instructors I have ever had experience with. He is extremely helpful, encouraging, patient and knowledgeable when prepping for any version of your driving test whether that be class 5 GDL or exiting your GDL. He gives great advice and instructions and makes sure that you are prepped and ready to take your exam and I will be recommending people looking for driving instructors in Calgary to him!!

Andrew Nin

Learned very fast on how to drive. The instructors helped prepare me and for my road test.

Laura Smith

My driving instructor was Ricky and to be completely honest I was terrified to drive, he was so calm and encouraging with me every time we drove around, he definitely pushed me past what I thought was my comfort zone but in a way it made me a more of a confident driver. The patients Ricky had with me each time I got into the vehicle... I give that man a round of applause because I myself would not have had patients haha. 10 out of 10 recommend ADC Driving School.!

Uche Ukanwa

I had a great time. My driving instructor Ricky was very professional, friendly and patient. He is very knowledgeable about driving and how to ace the tests. He gave great tips which improved my driving, helped a lot during the test and made me pass on first attempt. I recommend ADC driving school to everyone I know.

George Ike

Ricky is not only an experienced instructor, he equally has the maturity and patience to pass on excellent driving skills and tips. Will surely recommend him.

FBTJR

I took a driving consultation with Ricky. He was an excellent instructor, approachable, very knowledgeable and passionate in teaching the skills. Even if I have been driving for a long time, I realized that I have developed some unnecessary habits which Ricky had pointed out. He had exceeded my expectations. I passed my driving test the first time. Thank you once again Ricky! I highly recommend ADC for the quality of service and value for money.

Mary Botros

Ricky is great! Very knowledgeable about driving and teaches in a fun way! He is really nice and easy to talk to! After learning from Ricky and only one week after my last session I passed my drivers test on my first attempt! I would highly recommend Ricky to anyone looking for a driving school. Thank you Ricky!

Deanna Goosen

My son really liked his instructor Ricky. He was encouraging and calm. My son felt relaxed with him. Personality is important in this profession and Ricky is very well suited to help new drivers. Also, my son passed his test first try, adding to Ricky’s long list of successful results.

Chelsea Ly

I was the most nervous, anxious driver to get behind the wheel but Ricky helped me get rid of my fear of driving! He gave me confidence and reassurance throughout our classes and was a super relaxed and calm instructor who was fun to chat to while learning to drive! Ricky made sure I was okay with our learning as we progressed. He also encouraged any questions you had and was great at making sure I understood everything. Hands down the BEST driving school and all worth the money! I've seen my sister and brother try out other schools and have had to re-do many of their driving tests but with Ricky he makes sure you pass the first time! The car is also very easy to learn with and maneuver with. I was debating which driving schools to go with and ultimately went with this one, I'm happy I made the right decision! Highly recommend this school when you're deciding who to go to!

Rex Generation

A big gratitude to Ricky, It was a great experience taking lessons from him. He is highly qualified and puts his best efforts to teach and also cheerful too. Once again, thank you Ricky

audrey yuen

Ricky was a very good instructor, super patient, very nice, & honestly a fun person to chat with while learning how to drive! Highly recommend! all 3 of my cousins were also taught by him!

Michael Tandyo

If you guys are looking for quality lessons, ADC Driving School is a great choice from my personal experience. My instructor Ricky, was super chill and made the process of learning more enjoyable. I actually think that we got along pretty well, sharing stories back and forth; you can pretty much talk to him about anything and he will still keep it professional! Apart from the friendly environment he gives off, his teaching skills were spectacular as I was confident enough to take the car to a family road trip to Canmore just after my fourth lesson (with no accidents). Even my dad was surprised to how fast I was improving and how smooth the rides have become. I have my road test in a few days and I don't feel nervous as I thought I was going to be. Ricky is a great instructor, and will make sure that you are in the best possible shape for it. I highly recommend!

Jovan Cacatian

ADC Driving school is such an Amazing driving school run by probably the best instructor in Calgary(Honestly he's the best) ~ but you'll probably never know if you don't take a couple lessons with Ricky... This school teaches proper, real world driving. Much unlike some other schools in Calgary. The Chill no BS attitude of the instructor, Ricky, really helps you to clam your nerves and allows you to become a better, safer Independent driver ready to tackle everything Calgary can throw at you. Ricky gives amazing constructive criticism and allows you to problem solve your way around Calgary! This is a driving school that you should not sleep on! Thank you Ricky, and your commitment to the drivers of Calgary! You really are teaching Calgary how to be a better driver one driver at a time! I'm truly excited for you and the future Growth of your school! What you are doing will truly help Calgarians hone their skills and overcome their fear of driving. -Justin :)

Danger Dude

Taking ADC driving school was the best decision I had ever made , with the instructors help I was able to pass my class 5 ( basic ) without a sweat . Thank you ADC driving school !!!!

Ted McCaffrey

This review is about Ricky and his lack of respect for a hand shake deal, not his driving school. Ricky was selling a vehicle, my 17 year old and I went and looked at it, 17 year old loved it and wanted it. We shook hands with Ricky and told him we would line up inspection. The next day we lined up inspection and also put insurance on vehicle, later that day Ricky said he sold it to someone else for $300 more. Hand shake, verbal acknowledgement and texts telling him where we were in the process and him ok with everything. As a businessman myself, the honor in a handshake deal still exists. Of course I was upset and Ricky thought I was being petty about a $3k car when he went back on a handshake and verbal agreement for $300 more. Be careful when dealing business with Ricky. Would be a zero star but.....

Wyl C.

I am beyond thankful to Ricky, very professional, patient and accommodating. With my busy work schedule, it was very hard for me to book my lessons and he squeezed me in to his also already busy schedule (as he’s the only instructor available at the time) to get my lessons done. My fifth and final lesson day was also the day I did my road test…. and I passed!

maia smith

Started driving school feeling very nervous and a bit overwhelmed about driving in general. Ricky made sure the pace was right and that I was calm and alert. Ricky taught all the basics I needed to pass the road test with flying colours and continue to build up my experience in driving while staying safe.
