Okanagan Valley Driving School - Kelowna, British Columbia

I recently completed the MELT program with no prior experience with commercial vehicles. Harry is an amazing instructor who has more than 20 years of long-haul experience. The classroom theory was well explained, and Harry was able to circle back and relate it to real-life experiences. The preparation for pre trip, air brake test, and the road test was 10/10. Harry was very patient, understanding, and explained everything as to why it was done in the manner it was being taught. His instruction was very clear, and he identified daily the issues that need to be corrected. Harry was very punctual, professional, and flexible.  I strongly recommend this driving school for any driver training. Thanks Harry.

I recently completed the Class 1 MELT program with Harry. It was an amazing and rewarding experience. Harry was a great instructor, very experienced both in the industry and as an instructor. He explains everything very well and has patience while your learning and adapting your skills. I couldnt imagine a better experience, I highly recommend Okanagan Valley. Thank you for everything!

I recently completed the class 3 driver training course with Harry. The training was very professional and informative. I passed my road test and pre-trip inspection with flying colours. I have nothing but great things to say about my driving instructor Harry, he was very patient with me and explained everything very well. Would absolutely recommend Okanagan Valley Driving school to everyone looking to get a Class 1 or 3 drivers license.

I had no experience at the start of my Class 3 course. However within the week harry was able to train me up and have me more then prepared for both the pre trip and road test. If you have no experience at all I would recommend taking the extended course as the extra time behind the wheel would pay off. But the instruction was clear and corrected things along the way as needed.

I acquired my unrestricted class3 commercial license w Harry as my instructor and was extremely happy w my experience, I went from practically never driving a commercial truck to being able to drive a manual transmission semi. Harry was a super detailed and knowledgeable instructor while being able to adapt his teaching to my needs aswell he was a very interacting instructor to have in the truck w me. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking to acquire any grade of license!!

Fantastic driving school! Would recommend to anyone, Harry is an amazing driving instructor/teacher he will find your strength and weaknesses extremely fast and precise. He will focus on strengthing those weaknesses to make sure you pass any course the first time. Harry is a great family man and is easy to get along with, which is a huge asset since you will be next to him hours on end. Thank you Harry for the knowledge and making sure I pass the Class 3 the first time.

I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto Harry's driving school (Okanagan Valley) while I pursue a Class 1 license. Harry is the real deal; not only a very experienced & professional long-haul trucker but also an effective teacher. You won't just learn what you need to pass the ICBC test, Harry also covers real-world trucking scenarios and how to deal with them, which will leave you more confident heading out on the job.

If you have a strong desire to learn and are in a teachable mindset, Harry will totally transform your driving during the MELT program. Not only is his program packed full of valuable learning, he is also a great guy and fun to chat with while you're shifting gears. You will leave his course with a totally transformed ability to drive a large commercial truck.

I've had a 10/10 experience with Harry @ Okanagan Valley Driving School in the MELT program, and totally recommend his courses to anyone who is serious about leveling up their driving.

*Update: Passed the Class 1 driving exam 1st time thanks to Harry's excellent instruction. Thanks so much!
