Testimonial: Haley
Ingrid has taught me in both the Volvo and the Honda CR-V. Both vehicles were very easy to drive and have excellent visibility. Loved driving the new CR-V, it was very easy to drive and to see out of. Learning to drive with Ingrid is a very calm and non-intimidating...
Read MoreTestimonial – Amy
My mom wasn’t the best driving instructor – she tried, but she’s more of a “do-er” than a “show-er.” After a couple failed attempts at taking me out, we both decided it was in our best interest that I find a driving instructor.

There are never raised voices during our lessons, each correction is treated as a learning opportunity. Constructive criticism is part of the coaching process, but it is always about the driving decisions, not about the student.”
Read MoreHow safe is the student during lessons?
“We use a Volvo driving instructor’s car with dual controls (as mandated by ICBC). The Volvo is widely known as an extremely safe and predictable vehicle. Remember, it is my job to maintain control of the vehicle and keep you safe, and I have a brake pedal that is designed to prevent...
