Derek Browns has been such a wonderful adventure. I am so grateful that I choose Derek Browns. The front desk ladies are amazing! They are all so flexible and patient and always willing to help! The in class was great very interactive and enjoyable! My driving instructor Robert was beyond amazing! Robert is calm, cool and collected during every situation he is aware of many areas and is able to help build a successful driver. Honestly this school is amazing and I don’t think I would of finished the program without Robert and Derek Browns!
I just passed my class 1 melt program and I am thrilled. Everyone at this school is friendly and accommodating. Dan was very informative in class training had a lot of experiences to share. Sonny was my driving instructor he was very thorough and patient. Pam at the front desk was so patient as well. She’s a super busy gal but she stays on top of everything and was always able to be accommodating with my schedule. Thanks so much for the adventure into new beginnings!
Awesome driving school! I have had 4 lessons with Qusay and I’m so glad I got him as my driving instructor. He is extremely knowledgeable, and is willing to share his knowledge with his students. He never leaves a question unanswered and tells you why the rules are the way they are. So happy to be paired with him!! 10/10 would recommend to students looking for driving instructors with Derek Browns!
I just got my class 1 license after taking the MELT program with Derek Brown. I had a very positive experience. My instructor Jerry went above and beyond and had a wealth of knowledge. All of the instructors there were friendly, helpful and would go out of their way to teach. You can tell they all genuinely care about what you, the student, takes out of it. The office staff were also very accommodating and easy to coordinate with. Definitely recommend to anyone trying to get their class 1.
Great school! Completed my Class 1 MELT there. Pam and the office are very responsive and helpful. She helped me secure funding quick and easy. Dan the instructor was outstanding he kept the dry unorganized government program interesting with a wealth of real world knowledge. Maher my driving instructor was fantastic. Very professional and patient. He explained everything in detail and pushed me just enough to keep me learning. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better experience! I can’t speak for other schools but if you’re looking around and trying to decided. Derek Browns is 100% a school you can rely on.
Wow !! That's how you talk to your instructors? That's not professional.... I wouldn't work there either. I was a student at this school, I had a horrible experience and instructor who didn't care if I was learning or not, this person wasted my time with their smoke breaks and chatting it up with others around them, not paying attention to just my learning time. This person was eventually fired and then went and worked at other schools and got fired there too, not sure why anyone allows them to teach. But your school was happy to take more money from me to continue until I passed. I had to train with different a instructor. Some instructors are good at this school as I know others who attended there, but some instructors shouldn't have a license. You would expect that if you are to be taught properly, you would be taught by people who have the real world experience to back it up. I know my first instructor never professionally drove the class of vehicle I was being trained to drive. Looking back I wish I had gone to school elsewhere. And to say that a person, leaving a review, never attended the school is also bad press, it's actually smart to not give your real name when leaving a bad review. It's also freedom of speech and privacy. Just as I'm not giving up names in my review.
I had a wonderful experience at Derek brown school of driving! I had both Sajid and Robert as instructors and they were amazing. Sajid was very patient and always kept a kind and positive attitude throughout our lessons. I also had Robert for my last lesson before my test and he was extremely helpful and had a very good sense of humour. His parallel parking tricks really helped me on the road test! Both of my instructors made me feel comfortable and safe while driving and I would recommend them to anyone.
Went here for their basic driving course. I had Qusay as my instructor and he was a great instructor. Helped to explain and understand more than I had anticipated. While it can be frustrating sometimes he was a great instructor and I am very happy with with the basic driving course all in all. I would highly recommend Derek Brown's Academy of Driving.
Big thanks to Derek Browns Academy for their professionalism and quality services. The front desk staff have been very helpful and friendly. Special thank to Robert, best instructor in Calgary. I have tried many schools, but Robert's patience and support have helped me overcome my fear of driving. He gave me all the clues and tricks I need to pass my road test.
Best Class 1 CDL School in Calgary I acquired my license in July 2021 and got recruited as a professional truck driver in September 2021. My trainer was Marvin and he was fantastic and helped me get the training I needed to pass the class 1 road test. I am a flat bed trucker hauling legal and oversize loads between US and Canada. Also participated in 2022 Ice Roads in Yellowknife hauling loads into Diavik. I wish everyone in Derek Brown a merry Christmas and happy New Year. Cheers to everyone.
