Shawnessy Driving School

Thank you Sai for helping me pass my road test. I appreciated your patient teaching and encouragement

Thanks to this school I just passed my driving test on the first try!

I had Albert for the majority of my lessons and he really helped me get used to the road. I also had Sai for one lesson and he was great too! They both made sure that I knew what to expect for the road test and made me super comfortable behind the wheel.

I would definitely recommend this place for student drivers, especially for those who's new like white paper (limited driving experiences) and for those who really want to be a safe drivers ( want to know good driving habits). I attended three driving schools in Calgary , this Shawnessay is the best. Why? 1. price is affordable, driving instructors are friendly, kind & knowledgeable, good services in general. Few years ago, I was with Driving 101 school, first class my instructor at that time took me to downtown although I talked her I was a totally new driver, never operated an vehicle in my life. She did not really show me how to drive in the beginning and she yelled and panic when I needed her help.
2. Driving instructors are really engaged when you were practicing with them, they taught you how to do turning properly, how to stop smoothly, how to do a proper lane change, how to do a good parking and they did teach you almost exact two hours, and they corrected your bad driving habits. My second instructor at Driving 101 was a good guy, but he did not teach me, he literally just sat beside me. My second driving school, the instructor always requested a break and always checking his text messages... he was decent because he taught me something just not working as hard as Peter and Albert at Shawnessy Driving school. 3. Their in-class reviewing class is very helpful to brush up your driving knowledge after computer exam. I passed my road test with first attempt. If I can make it, you will make it with Shawnessy Driving school ( with Peter and Albert, especially do a brush-up with Peter you won't get disappointed)

Great class, took this as a new driver.
Barry was a great teacher who gave us lots of tips and advice, he's been driving for years and can help you answer everything needed to know.

Peter is an AMAZING driving instructor, was very patient, very clear on what I needed to do and had lots of time to inform me with any questions or bookings I needed.

Peter also gave me a demonstration on how my driving test would look like, areas, communities, etc.

Thank you for this opportunity taking this class.

My husband and I took brush up classes with Peter, based on reviews here. Indeed, he turned out to be an amazing instructor and yes, we passed our road tests! He was patient, clear in teaching road rules and most importantly very respectful. Just before finding Peter I have taken one brush up class with another company, where the instructor was talking very disrespectfully the whole time and trying to lower my confidence in driving (although I have 10+ yrs of experience). Peter was encouraging and kind. Strongly recommend him!
