Had Donna as my Instructor and she was absolutely amazing, she was fun to talk to and it was just overall a good vibe in the car at all times... even if it got a little stressful. She was always on time and always explained things thoroughly to make sure that I understood. I ended up passing my G2 test, so I recommend this place to everyone as they will defiantly make you a better and safer driving along with it just being a nice place with good people!
I had a pre-arranged date for my G2 drivetest. On that day I wanted to have a practice route before the test and booked it with another academy. They didn't show up on time so I had to find a solution quickly. Luckily Aapex is just at next door of the drive test centre. They were so helpful, kind and they had such a warm welcome! They immidiately found an instructor named Marilyn (sorry if wrong spelling) who were such a lovely person and so helpful! She was there in 15 minutes!!! Wish I had chose these guys previously. I have passed the G2 and G already, but if there would be a "next time", I would definitely do the same and I will recommend them for everyone. The 2 lady at the reception and Marilyn to be an instructor. Thank you again for your kindness and focusing on the solution and help!!!! I will never ever forget the place and you guys, made a life-time memory!!!!
I had Dan for all my in class lessons; he was great. I wish I had someone like him for my in car lessons. I started with Stimit as my driving instructor. He was really impatient and would easily get frustrated. He lacked the encouragement and positive demeanour necessary for teaching young people how to drive. I called and asked to switch instructors. I was then assigned to Tammy. She was alright. She spent most of the lesson on her phone; however, she did a good job teaching me the basics in things like parallel parking, uphill/downhill parking, and 3-point turns. My biggest issue with her was her inability to show up on time. She would arrive 15 minutes late to a 2 hour lesson and then drop me off 15 minutes early. I would only get 75% of my scheduled lesson. When I mentioned this to her, she would try to deny it. Due to the coronavirus shutdowns, my test was delayed. Now, 8 months later, I noticed that Tammy did not instil necessary driving habits into me like others did to my brother or sister when they took Aapex. Habits like blind spot checking when turning, driving in the centre of the road/not accidentally straying into other lanes, etc, were never perfected, as she never noticed or said them. As a result, I am struggling to implement those into my driving now, not when I had the certified instructor.
One of the quizzes for the home links booklet is completely full of pop ups and spam, I tried it on two devices and to try and fill it out all I got was “you have one a free Samsung s7” “you have one extra spins on our online casino”. Gross that you can charge people hundreds of dollars for a course and have a booklet full of typos and links on your website for said booklets to fill out these quizzes that are full of unclosable pop ups and spam. I wonder if you guys get paid for clicks, this is gross

Dan is the best teacher
Melissa is the best instructor you can ask for!
As someone who has struggled with confidence behind the wheel no matter the practice time AAPEX has given me the ability and confidence needed to get my licence. Their customer service was amazing, fast, and friendly. While I only had one instructor I couldn't have been more pleased. Compassionate, Caring, Knowledgeable, and completely literate in the rules of the road; something many parents just can't teach. Regardless of your experience they will help you develop the skills needed to confidently get your licence.
Aapex was extremely helpful in providing driving lessons to prepare me for the road test. I passed the G2 road test on the first try, I highly reccomend Michael as the driving instructor! Very nice and patient, explains everything to ensure the student will pass.
If anybody looking for an automatic pass in their G2 or G test. Book a driving lesson now in AAPEX. Make sure it’s Jack cause it’s 100% pass when you go for your test cause this man cares about his students more than anybody else. Thanks Jack and Aapex
My instructor Mr. Javier is professional, well educated and have the needed skills, experience and knowledge. He uses pen and paper to explain, I enjoyed this experience with such professional nice to know instructor. The office staff are pleasant and helpful. I already recommended AAPEX for my wife for her G class DT Thanks Javier, I now have my G class DL in hand. Much appreciated
Appex driving school was a great experience. It wasn’t stressful and the instructor Doug was friendly and created a welcoming environment.
Wish I could give Jerome a thousand stars. Awesome guy made me feel very relaxed behind the wheel and boosted my confidence big time. I would not be as comfortable driving as I am if it was not for him.
Great Dan made the in class interesting. I felt confident in my driving skills after spending 9 hours in car with Amie.
Very knowledgeable and friendly instructors makes learning a breeze.
I would like to say “Thank you!” to AAPEX!!! I really enjoyed my online classes with Melissa, she is great! It’s very convenient to study from home! Thanks Dan for making our classes fun! Also, my driving classes were excellent! Even though, I had different instructors, Simon was the perfect coach and mentor for me! He has the unique ability to explain things properly, so you can actually understand and do it right. He is making the roads safer by teaching his students (!) and we will keep all these advices forever and apply on practice every day. I also booked a G2 prep and found it extremely helpful! Simon gave me many tips on how to succeed on the test, and I am 95% of his students who successfully passed and got the license from the 1st trial. He is very patient and answered all my questions. I am thankful for all the confidence on my test and for my driving skills! Thank you again!
I took the G Road Test Prep just beginning of this week, and had Sandra as my instructor. Sandra is very experienced and professional, patient, and fun. She gave me great advice, tips and tricks on how to perform a G road test. More importantly, Sandra helped me feel very comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Customer service was also excellent, especially when it comes to last minute change. I passed my test with no issues. My overall experience with Aapex was great. With Sandra as your instructor, you are in good hands. Thank you Sandra.
MELISSA was my instructor and she is the best! Thank you AAPEX!
The instructor has been speeding and has very little knowledge of driving and is very off topic
Loved every minute, Doug mad3 me confident in my driving and improved everything and always answered my questions.
Would not recommend, after my brother paid the full price, they stopped contacting him about his rescheduling his incars when his in-car instructor called to cancel because he was sick and they did not confirm dates with my brother as he has his own busy schedule with school and basketball. ALSO he would tell me his in-car instructor would be on his phone during their in-cars. Waste of money and time for him. They have not reached out to my brother to reschedule his in-cars and he has been leaving messages. Would not recommend to anyone to pay the full price right away as it seems its a money grab nowadays.
Had a good experience. Doug was my instructor and also my in class teacher, and as a whole it was super chill. Everyone I talked to was nice and I didn't have any problems, highly recommend the course.
Jack is an amazing instructor . Highly recommend!
My instructor, Heidi, was awful. I don't recommend her at all. She was bad-tempered, grumpy and impatient. She was sometimes playing with her cell phone. But, the customer service was good, and I found them very helpful.
I had a great experience with the Academy. Paul made a rather boring class quite enjoyable, and I learned quite a bit more than I had anticipated. The in car lessons were very enjoyable, Doug was (almost) always early or on time, and was ready to go. I learned a lot from the lessons, including the habit of actually using my mirrors. Doug was very friendly, and welcoming, and I always felt like I was just driving with a friend. I highly recommend Doug as an instructor!
Both my boyfriend and I went through aapex. I went to this school a few years back and I had wonderful customer service. My teacher was Darlene and she was wonderful. She was very thorough and explained everything to our class and if we didn't understand something she would make sure we did. I also would recommend this school to anyone. Great teachers and great people. Hoping to get my sister there this year or next!
I would definitely recommend AAPEX to others looking for a driving school ....my instructor was Sandra, I was able to go from not knowing how to do 3 point turning and parallel parking and not having confidence to passing my G2 today.....thanks so much Sandra for helping me learn to drive and pass my G2!!!!!
My daughter Samantha and I recently completed the drivers education course at Aapex. The entire experience from the friendliness of the office staff to the classroom instruction to the in car instruction was first rate. Thorough, proffesional, and tremendously focused. Both my daughter and I had little to no experience behind the wheel of a car and yet after completing the course both of us were able to easily pass our road tests and obtain our class G2 certification. We would like to especially center out our in car instructor Ami who was simply the most amazing, patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and comprehensive instructor we could possibly imagine. Her passion for her job and the genuine interest and concern she displays for the success of her students puts her in a whole other class. I know she would say it was all us but without her remarkable guidance I don't think we would have achieved the results we did in our government road tests. Ami is a tremendous asset to the company and her proffesion and we owe her a deep debt of gratitude. Thank you Ami. Some may feel the price of the program, approx. $700, not including rental of a company car to use on the road test, to be a little steep, but I completely disagree. When you take into account the number of hours of in class instruction, combined with the number of in car hours along with overhead of deploying and maintaining a large fleet of vehicles all combined with the high level of professionalism and thoroughness of the program, the reality is that Aapex offers an incredible level of value for the dollar. I cannot recommend Aapex highly enough. If I could rate them six stars I would.
Aapex was a great driving school and made sure to make online learning class calls during the COVID-19 pandemic engaging. My instructor Doug was amazing overall, great guy, patient and very clear with what you need to know on the road. Never a dull moment in my in-cars with Doug!
Got my G2 in first attempt. Baiano David was my instructor. He explain everything so well. Highly recommended Thank-you Aapex and Thank-you Baiano David.
Amazing company and amazing instructor Sandra. Recommended 110%. You won't be disappointed.
I'm an older student. Had Dan as my instructor, and would absolutely do it again! Best instructor ever, bar none.
Recently took AAPEX and passed my G2 on the first try. Jack was my instructor and is highly recommended. He cares about his students, got to know me personally and gave great tips. He was really down to earth, while still being professional. AAPEX really helped me gain confidence while driving and helped me pass the tests. There’s also added perks when you go with them. If you’re considering AAPEX- do it!!! Thanks Jack and AAPEX!!
Carol was my in car instructor. She was great!! Super easy to learn from. I overall had a great experience!
Scott was my instructor and he was amazing. He taught me tips and tricks on how to drive and park better, and shared his own driving experiences. It was a pleasure to learn with him, so thank you AAPEX!
I did my G2 drive-test today and passed. My instructor was Stacey and I must say that everything she taught me in the lessons was very useful to me. She is very patient and she makes you feel that she cares about you, and that she is there to help you. Highly recommended!
I took AAPEX Driving in my teens and I was thoroughly impressed at not only the education I received but also the atmosphere and friendliness of the staff - in class and in car. As an adult driver with my G licence, I kept all my education from AAPEX with me on the roads as I drive all over Ontario on different roads in various conditions.
Donna was an amazing instructor. She was very patient with me and made me feel really comfortable while I was driving. She made me practice everything until I was confident enough to do it on my own and I passed my G2 with no mistakes thanks to her.
I really recommend this driving school, the school is very organized and the administrative assistant is very friendly and helpful. My driver instructor was Doug he is amazing, very knowledgeable and gave me a lot of confidence.
When it came to scheduling my G road test, I was looking at months away before any availability, but thanks to Cindy I got my G test scheduled just in time to not lose my career! Thanks Cindy and Aapex team!
Doug was a fantastic instructor! Before I did my classes with him, I wouldn't even get in the driver's seat of a car. He really helped me feel comfortable with my driving ability, and of course made sure I knew all the rules
I started my driving lessons late July After I completed the in-class lessons before Covid. I told my instructor to book my G2 test as soon as possible on my First driving lesson. After a couple lessons, he tells me that he cannot book me my G2 test until I finish my driving lessons since they were having technical issues. But once I finished my driving lessons I was told that they were booked until February next year. I’m frustrated because I was given excuses to why they couldn’t book me when I requested them to book me. Now I have to wait 6 months to get my G2 test for my license??
Fantastic experience. Will be recommending
I love Paul.
I want to say that Doug Cambell is an amazing instructor!! I honestly thought I would never drive/be too scared to drive and Doug changed that. He was patient, friendly and a great teacher. The day I got my G2 he was there to calm me down, go over what we learned and support me. Thank you again Doug!! You're the best!
Had a very good experience with them. They were quick to setup my classes and to top it all off I had a very good instructor Jack who very professionally led me through the whole process.
So far with Aapex Driving Academy I have had a great time with the valuable information learned and the instructors who taught it. I had Dan as my in class instructor which was great because he’s a funny guy who keeps our attention on the lesson while making sure we don’t get bored. For my car instructor I don’t think Aapex could have done better job then picking Simon to be an instructor. Simon has helped boost my confidence higher than I thought possible for me while insuring we both get home safe. The lessons flew by quickly and it is going to be sad when me and him part ways for good. I highly recommend that you ask for Simon to be your instructor as I don’t think anyone could do a better job (no offence to the other drivers). Simon is early to every lesson and is very thorough his lessons. He has gone above and beyond to insure that I am a safe and responsible driver, so thank you to him and Aapex.
Aapex is the only driving school I would recommend to family and friends! I had Donna as my instructor and couldn't ask for anyone better. She was so patient, kind and a great teacher. I'm thrilled to say because of her help I passed my G2 and am now a much more confident driver!!
I got My licence last week, my trainer was mr.Muhammed of Aapex driving academy, bunting road. He is a good trainer,after all he is very conscience too ..... Thank you aapex
I would highly recommend Aapex to anyone that is looking to obtain their driver's license. The staff went out of their way to ensure that I had a instructor available on the day of my road test although it was on the instructors off day. The lessons were timely and constructive. I had Jack as my instructor and he was marvelous!! He's patient, sociable, and gives honest feedback without being condescending. Well with an instructor like Jack of course I passed my road test. Thanks Jack!!
Did the 5 private driving lessons to prepare me for my g2 test. My instructor was David and he was awesome . Very informative and helped me learn parallel park, 3 point turn everything you need to know for your drive test. I successfully passed my road test today thanks to his help! You can also rent there car and get a hour of driving prior to your test which is super helpful . Definitely recommend aapex and instructor David to anyone who needs help with driving.
Had a great instructor Dan Raby, he made the class funny and not boring. Kept us engaged, giving us good info and filling the class with his great sense of humour and stories.
Jack is the best instructor ever would not have been able to get my G2 without him
The staff at AAPEX were all professional and courteous, from the registration process to the driving team! My daughter's instructor was friendly and patient, putting my mind at ease. He went the extra mile to build her confidence and exceed our expectations. I highly recommend AAPEX to anyone seeking professional driver training.
I had Donna as my instructor and she was amazing! Her explanations were easy to understand and she was always patient with me. She encouraged me and taught me so much. It's thanks to her that I know I can pass my G2 test! :)
I attended Aapex while in high-school for G1 test, my in-class and G2 road test. I couldn't have been more happy with my experience. My instructor was so kind and helpful knowing some of the same people (both locals) we were able to maintain a friendly work relationship. Aapex was super flexible with my G2 driving schedule as I was still in school. With no driving tickets to date its very safe to say Aapex is a great driving school to attend.
With a professional and empathetic approach in teaching, my classroom and in-car instructors, Doug and Nancy, respectively (St. Catharines branch), have played a great part in my gaining the knowledge, driving skills and proper attitude on the road to pass my G2 Road test today. Nancy's patience, sensitivity towards the student's weaknesses and needs as well as prudence are exceptional. Thank you and stay safe.
Dan was an excellent instructor. Passed road test on one try.
I finished my online (self learn) classes during lockdown and started my in-car lessons this month. Nancy and Sandra were both professional, patient, and fun; they made me feel very comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Customer service was also excellent especially with some last minute changes. I had a great experience, finished my in-car lessons and passed my test in one month!
Aapex makes the process of becoming a licensed driver so simple and easy for us parents and children. My sons instructor was very friendly and professional. I feel comfortable knowing my son has been given the skills to drive safely. Any questions I had were responded to in a timely manner. I highly recommend using Aapex Driving Academy.
Thank you aapex welland????I got my G2 last Thursday (sept 19)I highly recommend you and mike(my instructor)the best instructor????
The instructors were very professional, knowledgeable and took the time to explain things clearly. They were always there on time for each lesson and were calm and patient in their approach and made a very nervous teen feel at ease and much more comfortable behind the wheel!
Not impressed. My daughter paid for this course from her own funds. She took her G2 and passed and was informed that because the computers were down she would have to wait to get her license until computers were up but that she would get her new license in the mail. Computer was to be updated next day. Now a year later and still not in the computer. Very very disappointed as apex told her they would take care of it.
My experience with this school is not good. The in class time was very helpful, but the behind wheels classes weren’t as helpful as it should be.Hidie , the instructor, was so rude,80% from the time was texting on her cell phone, and she was dealing so badly.
My driving instructor Nazhir was so patient on me and he never left me even though I was worried that I will fail my G2 exam since I haven't been driving in Canada for a while. I passed my G2 road test with ease and I owe it to him. Thank you again Nazhir, Godbless
In class sessions were very fun and interactive. The instructor Paul did a superb job at teaching the class. In car lessons were also fantastic, Doug did an extraordinary job at explaining and teaching all things neccessary for a driver to go out into the real world of driving. The communication is also tremendous, the secretary is very polite and understanding. This place is definetly worth taking courses from for your driving needs.
Ami was my instructor for the basic G test course. She was very helpful and knowlegeable about what the test would contain. I am very happy with the process as I have had my g2 for a long time and this was a great refresher. I passed my test thanks to Ami!
Give dan a large double-double with sweetner
Let my licence lapse so I took the Aapex Drivers Education course. Doug was my instructor and was very kind patient and relaxed. I highly recommend this course and suggest asking for Doug as your instructor! Thank you Aapex and a huge thank you to Doug.
Great facility, my in class and road instructors were both great.
I did my driving lessons with aapex because I didn't have anyone to teach me. They were amazing. The in class portion was very informative and I believe was definitely needed in making me a better driver. My instructor was Bart and he made me feel very comfortable from Day 1. Would highly recommend anyone learning to drive to go to Aapex!
Doug was an amazing in class teacher, patient, funny and relaxed.
My experience at aapexx was great ! My great instructor Arlene helped me become a better driver and Aapexx was a great driving school. I would recommend to anyone else
Thank you to the team at Aapex Driving Academy! My daughter just passed her G2 road test and received her drivers license on the 1st attempt. You prepared her so well from the in class training to the in car lessons. Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable while making it a fun experience! I highly recommend Aapex to anyone looking for driver training, you will not be disappointed!
Have emailed business twice for information as I work nights and prefer to do most communication that way. Have yet to hear back from anyone and am now looking for another place to assist me.
Tammy was my instructor. she was really patient and calm even when i was doing things wrong and helped me in improving my driving skills .
Had Dan as my in class and in car instructor, highly recommend him! Prepared me very well for my G2 road test and I'll be back for a refresher before my G.
my daughter just got her G2, in a first attempt., thanks to Aapex where she got necessary knowledge and driving skill. A big shout out to her awesome instructor Tina!!
My experience with Tammy was very helpful, I enjoyed all my lessons, she gave me confidence behind the wheel. After getting my G2 I feel well prepared with parking, lane changes...etc!
I learned a lot about blind spots and safe driving, 10/10 would recommend Dan is the best ????
Thank you so much Tammy (Niagara Falls Location) for the drive instructions, practice, tips and encouragements. Thank you to the team at Aapex too! For the helpful way in which you communicate well with your customers. I would recommend using Aapex driving academy for an unforgettable learning experience. Always remember to listen, be patient and apply what you are being taught and you will get it right! Thank you once again.
Jack from the Welland/Port Colborne team was a great in-car instructor. Our daughter loved that he made conversation and improved greatly with his support.
Five star forsure!! Aapex is an excellent driving school with great staff that is so willing to go above and beyond to help out with your all your needs. Special thanks to Lori who went the extra mile to help with booking. Very pleased indeed!
I passed my G@ on first attempt and credit goes to Inderdeep mam . she gave me so many tricks for parking which were very helpful . i recommend apex driving school to all people who wishes to pass their driving exams on first attempt
(Posting from my gf's account) I attended Aapex weekend courses with Paul as the in-class instructor for two weekends starting in November and ending in December. Paul was great, was funny and really knew his stuff answering any questions the student's had. My in-car instructor was Bart (Karaoke Bart AKA W.P.) He was a great instructor but an even better vocal coach. He can sing higher than anyone I've ever heard and can hit notes you can only dream of being able to hit. Karaoke Bart prepped me for my G2 road test and not only did I pass on the first try with almost no marks off, I could sing better too. He knows his stuff and has been doing this as long as Paul has been alive (seriously). I very very strongly suggest you request Bart as your in-car instructor and bring up this review, he will know it means you want A+++ performances (seriously, bring this review up). Excellent voice, good instructor, and an even better story teller. Ask him about his childhood growing up on the snowy mountains in Europe. It's a story I'll never forget - incredibly encouraging, inspiring, heart-melting, full of reconciliation and hope. I will be paying for another performance and preparation for my G in a year from now and I am looking forward to it. Really though, request Bart and bring this review up.
Do not go to this driving school if you are not white guys. Do not go to this driving school if you are from other countries.
my two sons recently went through their driver training with Aapex and the experience was exceptional. Everyone in this company gives outstanding customer service . They are friendly and helpful. They made the experience for my boys very enjoyable. As a parent you think you can teach your child to drive, but many rules of the road have changed, so save yourself the aggregation and hire Aapex to teach your kids. Worth every penny!!!
Don't waste your time with this place. And if you do, be smart and don't pay up front for all your lessons. Otherwise, you have to deal with mandatory "cancellation fees" if you try to reschedule. The reason I had to sit down and write this review: if you try to ask for a refund on lessons you paid for upfront but didn't take, you're not getting your money back! (which has been my personal experience so far trying to get money I stupidly paid up front for lessons I couldn't take due to a health issue). Here's the long story: A little over a month ago (July 27th), I called asking for a refund on the last few lessons I couldn't do due to some health issues (really the joke is on me for paying for all the lessons up front. I hope this hard-earned lesson helps other young and naive people make a better decision while they research different driving schools). ANYWAY, after 3 weeks passed and I saw no signs of the cheque anywhere, I called again to ask what's going on. It turns out, they hadn't even sent it! I was promised it would be done that very same day I called. Fast forward to a week after. Again, no signs of the cheque so I called again. At this point, I already know I'm just wasting my time and I'm never going to see my money. I was told my the envelope was "returned by Canada Post" because my postal code "was wrong." Once again, they promised to send it ASAP. A week later (yesterday) I called again. Honestly at this point I'm just calling to see what ridiculous excuses they come up with on the other end of the line, I've just accepted I got ripped off. The customer service rep didn't even bother to talk to me and just shot me off to a different line (without telling me who she was forwarding me to). Found out it was the bookkeeper. She said the cheque was ready to go and it just needed to be signed by the manager who still hadn't come in that day. A puzzling addition to this saga, since the cheque was supposed to have been sent after I gave them the right postal code, you know, a week earlier. The bookkeeper said she could return the money straight to the credit card I used to pay for the lessons. I agreed. She said she'd get to it right away and I'd get the e-receipt soon. Of course, I didn't get any such refund, or the email, and I know I'm never going to see that money again. All I can do is warn anyone and everyone considering to take lessons from this scammy, backwater mom-and-pop disaster that calls itself a business! Just go to Young Drivers and save yourself the disrespect and the headache of dealing with these people. P.S.: I'm looking forward to what the next excuse will be next week, and the week after that and so on, forever until we all grow old and gray and sad and bitter. My guesses for the next lineup of excuses are: -The office dog ate my cheque -The manager had a sudden bout of retrograde amnesia and forgot his name and the concept of cheques so legally he couldn't sign it -The bookkeeper accidentally used the cheque as a cracker for her Tim Hortons chilli and she ate it anyway because it probably adds flavor and spice to an otherwise bland lunch -The mailman slipped and dropped my cheque, and only my cheque, over Niagara Falls -Every time they try to write my cheque their pens run out of ink -Someone mistook it for a scrap of paper and doodled the peeing Calvin so the piss lands right on my name -Someone accidentally blew their nose with it, used it as an ashtray, or as toilet paper -The cheque had a midlife crisis and had to take some time off to "work through some stuff" and "find itself". It gets a divorce, goes to Costa Rica, starts dating a 20 year old, buys a Corvette, gets a tattoo of a giant cobra on its back and calls its teenaged sons who hate him "dude" and "bro".
Best Driving School in the Niagara Region
I got a training from Muhammad sir for my G test and I cleared my test on 30 june so I am very happy and get really good experience .Thanks a lot Apex academy and Muhammad Sir.
Aapex driving academy is the best to go to, don't think twice about using them or not. Had Marlene as my instructor(she is a natural) and she made learning the road rules so easy I always remember her instructions. I passed my drive test (yipeeeee!!) I would highly recommend Aapex to anyone looking for a driving academy
My driving instructor was Richard, and I guess I was lucky. I was worried about who will I end up with, being a teacher myself makes it hard to not be with a good teacher. Richard has qualities that make any learner feel at ease and supported. He guides you with confidence that learners' feel and act upon. He adapts his style to your level and abilities and he does what you need as a learner not what should be just done which really promotes your learning. He explains rules well and with great clarity and practicality. I thought my learning hours were fully useful and fulfilling and left me feeling content as a customer. APPEX has an added value having Richard there. Thank you Richard
My instructor was Doug and he made sure that I was well prepared to take my drivers test. Doug made sure I knew everything necessary to ensure that I will be a safe defensive driver. I recommend everyone do this course, and try to have Doug as your instructor!
Great service, everything is high quality. Just finished my 40-hour Driving Education Program. Feeling much better about the rules and much more confident on the roads. In class teacher Dan Raby and behind-the-wheel instructor Anthony Sweet know their roles and responsibilities absolutely great.
I did my lessons with my instructor who very meticulous and pointed everything I needed to know to pass the driving test. She was very professional and has visuals and models to illustrate various scenarios. I am glad to be instructed by her.
Took a G2 refresher after not driving for several years, and Christine's patience and knowledge helped me to pass my road test on the first try! I can't recommend Aapex enough, it's worth every penny for the amazing instructors and the skills they teach you.
Christine Raby was an exceptional help in reaching my goal to get my license. She was a positive role model who understood my needs. Carol was a patient, thorough instructor who really new her stuff. Highly recommended!
Excellent driving school. My in-car instructor Mike was the best! He was patient and teaches very well. Would definetly recommend Aapex and Mike.
Paid 50 bucks for a refresher for my daughter before road test. Said they sat there for 10 minutes while the instructor filled out the paper at the side of the road instead of driving. Only practiced the needed skills 3 times each. Not impressed would never use this place again.
Marlene was brilliant in the instruction she gave my wife Gemma, which culminated in Gemma, at the age of 55, passing her class G road test on her first attempt two days ago in difficult weather conditions. Passing the first time is more important than ever because the long lead time for booking road tests and the threat of cancellations arising from COVID restrictions mean that the next opportunity for a road test is quite a long time away in the event of not passing. Gemma’s situation is somewhat unusual in that she only began driving a few years ago in her early fifties. She passed her G2 road test with another driving school but because of circumstances beyond her control, she was unable to continue with them and build the experience necessary to prepare for her G road test. Her situation was further complicated by the lockdown and the backlog it created for driving schools and road test bookings. Marlene worked out a programme with us to give Gemma regular instruction over several months to get her ready for her G road test. Over many lessons, she was unfailingly punctual and patient. She kept us fully and honestly informed of Gemma’s progress. She proved to be well-organized and completely reliable. I would also like to note that I liked dealing with Aapex and found them very business-like and well-organized. Jodie, who manages Marlene’s appointments, was easy to reach, returned calls promptly when I was unable to speak to her immediately and handled all our calls efficiently and without error. The student portal is a great feature and makes it easy to track administrative matters like lesson appointments, confirming times, billings, payments, etc. I realize this review is quite lengthy and I hope it doesn’t get tl;dr, but I wanted to express our thanks to Marlene and Aapex for being there for us at a critical time. The pandemic has meant that a full driver’s licence is more important than ever in general and it’s particularly so for us. We cannot thank Marlene enough for bringing Gemma to this achievement.
Saw their instructor driving down Bowen road on the wrong side while texting
I did the 5 private driving lessons with Leslie and she was awesome ! Very helpful and informative, super sweet lady. You can rent cars if you don’t have one of your own for your drive test so I rented my instructors car to use for the test, you also get a hour of driving prior to your test and they drive you home. But Leslie really helped me prepare for my test and thanks to her I have my g2 ! Really recommend aapex they are great .
Exceptional driving school, I have taken this driving school when I was 16 years old and the skills that I have learned stick with me years later. All of my friends have taken Aapex and they have had such a great experience with the in class teacher and instructors. :) I would recommend this driving academy to everyone
I took class with Aapex, and my experience with the driving academy was awesome, they taught me everything which needed for a driver to be in road with safe driving. I would like to give special thanks to my Aapex instructor Mr. Doug for providing with the valuable classes which made my G2 successful on 7th January 2022.
A little expensive but worth the coin helped me get my g2 5 all day
The constant practicing of parallel parking and three point turns is getting really annoying... get some garbage cans and a parking lot not my 60,000 dollar vehicle
When I enrolled in their program, they just told me that 20 hours in-class sessions plus 10-hours in car will get me the G2 license, but they didn't tell me that I need to find someone else to practise with me 20 hours more after the in car sessions. If anyone could do the job as a driving instructor, why do we need this driving school?
Just Waste of money.
Really good driver instuctor, well informed and seriously helpful. You will learn all you need to know. I highly recommend Aapex Driving Academy.
FANTASTIC and great ppl!! I highly recommend them!
TERRIBLE PLACE! They will take your money and will not provide you with the service. The company since July 30, 2021, just say that they are checking the issue and will refund me. Almost 20 days! Not only I missed the classes and the car rental, but they keep my money. I file a complain on the BBB and also Ontario Consumer Protection. NEVER GO THERE!
Just a waste of money and time. When I cancel the class 2 -3 hours early at that time they said it’s fine when the class time passes they texted me by saying I have to pay cancellation fee. But I never mentioned anything when there instructors cancel my class 5 minutes before my lesson. Such a awful experience. Will never recommend anybody to Aapex .
AMAZING DRIVING SCHOOL..OFFICE GIRLS WERE SO HELPFUL, MY SON LOVED HIS INTRUCTOR AND HE NOW IS AN GREAT DRIVER. PASSED THE FIRST TIME..
Nothing but great things to say to Andrew and the whole Appex team! Andrew was extremely professional and very knowledgeable would recommend him to anyone looking to learn the fundamentals of driving and his tips of the g2 test is the reason I passed! The office team is very nice and assertive to any questions! Appex is definitely the driving school to go to! You will not regret Appex! Plus the free CAA membership to students is amazing add on!
Donna was my driving instructor to help me with G test prep, as well as renting their car for my test. I went in not knowing how to parallel park for the life of me and when it came time to parallel park on my test, I aced it on the first attempt. ????
