Reviews of Above the Best Driving School (Driving School)

Samantha Singh

I booked with Above the Best to do my G road test because my G2 was expiring and I only had a few weeks to complete my road test. I’m not an everyday driver and I needed to build road confidence fast. I had my lessons with Surinder, who was patient and gave me good driving tips for defensive driving. Surinder helped me overcome my fear and I passed my G the first time. I highly recommend Surinder if you need someone with alot of road experience and how to teach new and nervous drivers.

This location has changed to 1902 Robertson Rd #205, Nepean, ON K2H 5B8, but there's no pin there for that buisiness.

Muttu was very comprehensive and helpful both during the in-class and in-car sections of the course. He let me use my own car with manual transmission which was the same one I used for the test. I passed on the first try. Thanks Muttu!

I spent a lot of time searching for a good driving school for my daughter, and found Above the Best based on reviews and general location. Muttu was knowledgeable, patient and happy to answer questions from the class. He was a great instructor and taught memorable tactics to my daughter whilst learning to drive. Happy to strongly recommend Muttu.

It was a great experience! I learned a lot in theory classes. Muttu sir possesses vast knowledge on the topics. His instructions during in-car lessons made me drive confidently and I passed the road test in the first attempt. To summarize I would say, it is really 'Above the Best'. Thank you! I would definitely recommend him to my friends.

At above the best driving school, Muttu engages the class to solve problems you may face while driving and explains very specific rules of the road. Muttu is a very professional and patient teacher, he was able to give me a lot of good pointers while doing the in car lessons. I recommend Above The Best to anyone who plans on attending driving school for their G2.

My son just completed his driver's training at Above the Best. I was looking for a school that was affordable, convenient, competent and responsive. These guys met and exceeded my criteria. My son completed the in-school portion over two full weekends. He easily got there on the 88 bus direct from Glen Cairn in Kanata. The class was small and the instructor was excellent - understandable, knowledgeable and personable. He then easily booked his 10 hours of instruction with a gentleman who picked him up at home, did 2 hours at a time in-car, and completed their last session as a dry run at the Walkley Road testing centre. He booked one extra session day-of the test and used the driving instructor's car to complete his G2 road test. The driving instructor was very accommodating and super-responsive, answering my son's phone calls immediately to book his in-car sessions. He's now a G2- licensed driver and I see how competent and confident that he is thanks to Above the Best. I highly recommend this school. A class act.

Good price, very informative. I had Surinder as my in car driving instructor and he helped me pass my g2 road test easily.

Literally the best driving school EVER. I started off soo nervous, having no experience and Muttu has made me such a confident, safe, and skilled driver. I will be recommending Above the Best to everyone!

Alexi King

I must say my experience was excellent. Muttu was my instructor and with all honesty I can state being under his tutelage benefited me greatly. The professionalism exhibited and the genuine care and sincerity in helping me pass my exam was really appreciated. Having to obtain the G1 and go straight for the full G exam based on my prior out of country driving license was very stressful. In my opinion, you cannot get better service and confidence from anyone else.

Muttu is a great teacher! He is very kind, explains concepts very well, and he has a well organized curriculum. I learned a lot in those 4 days, and I am very happy that I went with Above the Best! The price is also much more reasonable than other driving schools in Ottawa, such as YD or DTSM. But don't let the price fool you. This is still an excellently taught course, and I would definitely recommend Above the Best to anyone looking for a good MTO approved BDE course.

Mannie Chhabra

Classes are well taught! Muttu sir has a unique way of teaching, and it ensures that we learn and retain our information. Classes are insightful and Muttu sir makes sure all his students are understanding the course materials. My in car instructor was Surinder sir, and he is a very patient instructor and teaches you to be a confident and safe driver. I passed on my first try all thanks to Above the Best Driving School!

Jananee Murugaiah

This school is really good! The instructor Muttu trains students not only to pass the road test but to help them to pursue defensive driving throughout their lives. He is always available to repeat things until you master them. I highly recommend this school!

Sophia Chen

I got my driver education certificate from the above the best 13+ years ago, which held me get my driver's licence. I am thrilled to find the school is in business after I returned to Ottawa many years later and I need to retake road test as the old one got expired. I paid for a few sessions with instructor Muttu for my road test preparation to refresh my knowledge/skills and go over the drive test route to build my confidence. I could always feel that Muttu wanted you to succeed. Muttu is an excellent and patient teacher, who is professional and has solid knowledge and kind nature. I want to thank my instructor Muttu so for the driving sessions that I have found extremely helpful. I recommend this school without any hesitation. It is indeed "above the best" as the name of the school.

This driving school is really great!! I learned a lot in the course both theoretically and practically. The instructor is knowledgeable and friendly. He will teach you to become a safe and defensive driving throughout your life. This school's prices are also better than other driving schools in the area.
