What should I bring to my first lesson?
Bring your valid driver’s license, glasses if required, and arrive early.
How long is each lesson?
Each lesson typically lasts about 90 minutes, allowing time for instruction, practice, and feedback.
What will I learn in my first lesson?
You will learn basic vehicle control, safety awareness, steering, and road positioning in a low-traffic area.
How many lessons do I need to pass?
Most beginners need around six lessons, depending on their experience and confidence level.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash and e-transfer.
Are there any hidden fees?
No, we provide transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
Can I get a refund for unused lessons?
Yes, unused lesson hours may be refunded according to our policy.
How much do driving lessons cost?
A single 90-minute lesson is $100. Packages bring that down: $360 for four sessions, $480 for six and $620 for eight. No hidden fees, and you can pay by cash or e-transfer.
What is included in each lesson?
Ninety minutes of in-car instruction in a modern dual-control Toyota, with an instructor who works at your pace, plus progress tracking so you can see what is improving and what still needs work. Lessons are available in English or Farsi.
Which package is best for a beginner?
If you are starting from scratch, the eight-session package gives you the most room to build good habits without rushing. Six suits you if you have some seat time already and a test date coming up. Not sure? Take a single lesson first and your instructor will tell you honestly which one fits.
Can I use the school car for my road test?
Yes. The car is an add-on with any package, and the fee gets smaller as the package grows: $50 with 4 sessions, $40 with 6 and $30 with 8. Most students book a short warm-up lesson right before the test as well, so they arrive settled in a car they already know.
Can I start with one lesson before buying a package?
Of course, and plenty of people do. A single 90-minute session doubles as an assessment: you get a real lesson out of it and an honest answer on how many more you are likely to need, before committing to anything bigger.
