This is a very well run class. I recommend it highly. Their teachers come to your home to pick up the kids for the driving lessons. The lessons are great. I really know that this helped my child learn to drive properly. Also, I do suggest getting in asap as they are busy!!!!

I moved to Cochrane from another country and dreamed of learning to drive, because here I was very limited and could not get anywhere without a car. I had never driven a car before so I was scared and didn't know what to expect from driving lessons or what my experience would be like.

My husband was thinking about teaching me himself, but I'm so glad we decided to take lessons for me at Cochrane Driving Academy first! I took 5 lessons at the very beginning and 5 lessons after practicing with my husband, just before my driving test.

John was my first teacher and he is the best teacher you could ever imagine! He made me feel comfortable and confident even when I was driving for the first time in my life. It is very important to start learning to drive with a professional teacher who can support you and explain complex things in simple terms when you are so stressed and unsure of what you are doing. Each lesson was very informative and helped me gain my driving skills very quickly. I also had one lesson with Jayne just before my driving test and I was impressed with how much I got from her even in just one lesson.

Unfortunately, I didn’t pass the road test the first time, mainly due to the stress of something was happening to my car every time just right before the test (bad luck). But I managed to pass the second time, and I’m happy that now I can go wherever I want and feel safe and confident as a driver, thanks to the Cochrane Driving Academy.

If you’re planning to take lessons in Cochrane Driving Academy, the thing I can suggest is to book your lessons about 2 months in advance, because availability is limited.

Overall, I had a great experience, 100% recommend!

I cant say enough good things about Cochrane Driving school. My instructor was Jayne, I was so nervous to begin my Driving lessons but the minute I met Jayne she made me feel at ease and comfortable behind the wheel, she is very calm and patient and makes it easy for you. She showed me everything that I needed to know to become a safe driver. I am 100% going to recommend Jayne and Cochrane Driving School to everyone that I know who is looking for the best place to go. Thanks again Jayne!

The Cochrane Driving academy really helped me overcome my anxiety about driving and has made me a comfortable and competent driver. Everyone at the Cochrane Driving Academy was very friendly, kind, and helpful! I took my lessons with John and he was an incredible instructor! He was honestly the best instructor I could have asked for! He made the lessons very enjoyable and highly informative. John taught me how to be a competent driver and he taught me all the skills I needed to pass my road test and be a safe driver. I highly recommend the Cochrane Driving Academy to anyone wanting to learn how to drive, and especially for individuals that might feel anxious about driving.

Three of my five children have completed driving lessons with Cochrane Driving Academy and my fourth will be starting next month. The classroom and in car instruction was invaluable in setting them up as confident, competent drivers. Both John and and Sarah are amazing in -car instructors! I thoroughly recommend Cochrane Driving Academy to prepare new drivers for the road!

I can't say enough good things about Cochrane Driving Academy. After a number of failed attempts at the road test our daughter had pretty much given up hope of getting her license. John was able to improve her skills and knowledge and, more importantly, he helped her confidence immensely and gave her specific strategies to help her overcome the anxiety that was always her undoing on test day. We were so happy when she passed her road test and to see her with the confidence to drive herself to and from work and appointments. Her experience with Cochrane Driving Academy was truly life changing.
