Reviews of Arrowsmith Driver Education (Driving School)

Melissa Vasey

We hired Arrowsmith as a gift to our son to help teach him how to drive. Like many new drivers, my son was anxious and didn’t feel confident behind the wheel. He would ask to stop practicing with us after only 10-15 minutes, and we would gladly agree because we were also very stressed trying to teach him. Everything changed with Aaron of Arrowsmith. Aaron helped my son gain confidence and he became a better driver very quickly. After only 10 lessons and a handful of practice sessions with dad, my son passed his road test on the first try. I just can’t recommend Arrowsmith enough based on the progress I witnessed first hand. The only downside is that Aaron books up a few weeks/months in advance because he’s so popular! If you’re looking for driving lessons, you can’t go wrong with Arrowsmith.

Aaron was a very patient and kind instructor. I had lessons with him couple months ago, felt much more confident in driving after. Just passed my full license road test at the first attempt. Highly recommend this driving school!

This driving school was recommended to me by my friend, who passed her class 7 road test at her first attempt by following Tom's instruction. My situation is that i already have my country's drivers license, and need to transfer it to a class 5 license through road test. So I contacted them for an evaluation, my instructor was Aarron. He is great and has very good personality for being an instructor. He is very calm and clear at delivering his instructions during and after your driving performance. And when you drive, he will help to note down the points you need to do more practise on, and again, his writing reminders are very neat and clear and will definitely helps you with conducting a safe drive. Great thanks to Aaron, I passed my road test today! yeah!

Aaron helped me feel confident on the road. I was an okay driver before but I found I was getting so much misinformation from the people teaching me and needed someone who knew what was going to happen on my test to instill safe, correct driving habits in me. I paid for six lessons and passed my Novice road test!

Tom is a great member of the community and someone you can depend on.

I am new to Nanaimo and I went through ArrowSmith Driver Education to gain some experience on the road as a learner driver. Over all I paid for 10 lessons. I passed my N driving test on the first try due to the amount of amazing knowledge they share with you. I use to be scared behind the wheel but thanks to ArrowSmith Driver Education I am a very confident driver. I would highly recommend this driving school. There prices are very fair and they make you feel comfortable, safe and confident behind the wheel.

Booked my son in with Tom from Arrowsmith for the basic package. Unlike trying to teach a kid yourself, my son listened to Tom and respected everything he said. He passed his test and is now driving on his own, both cautiously and responsibly. Well worth the money. Going to book my daughter in next.

Aaron was an amazing driving instructor for my daughter Carmen. He was patient and kind and truly built her confidence behind the wheel. We are both very grateful for all your help and would highly recommend Arrowsmith Driving school to everyone.
