I had an amazing experience learning with North Simcoe Driving School in Barrie. Instructor Saqib was patient, professional, and explained everything clearly, especially while practicing on Bayfield Street and Livingstone Street East, where traffic can get busy. His calm teaching style helped me build confidence quickly, and I passed my G2 road test on the first try. If you are looking for a reliable driving school in Barrie that focuses on safe driving and real road driving experience, I highly recommend them.

Big thanks to North Simcoe Driving School! I took my lessons with Saqib and he was so patient with me. We started practicing in quieter areas near Ardagh Road and Mapleview Drive West, and slowly moved up to the busy Bayfield Street and Cundles Road intersection. He even helped me prepare around Innisdale Secondary School during the morning rush hour. I passed my G2 on the first try!

As a newcomer from Russia, everything was new to me, and I had a limited budget for driving lessons.

We practiced on the busy Highway 400 southbound and the Dunlop Street ramps, as well as school-zone driving around Eastview Secondary School. I truly appreciated being treated with kindness and respect throughout my training. North Simcoe Driving School provided excellent service, and I highly recommend them.

Saqib bhai is the most wonderful driving instructor. My family moved to Barrie from Gujarat, India and I had never driven before in my life. He started me very slowly on quiet streets near Ardagh Road, then we built up to Essa Road and Highway 400. He also took me to do practice runs near Innisdale Secondary School. North Simcoe Driving School is pure quality!

I needed driving lessons that covered Midhurst, Barrie and Innisfil because I drive everywhere for work. Mahmood was the perfect choice. We covered country roads around Carson Road and Bayfield Street North close to Grove Street East, busy city driving past St. Peter's Catholic Secondary School in Barrie, and even did a route through Innisfil Beach Road. North Simcoe Driving School truly serves all of Simcoe County. Merci beaucoup!
