Where we teach in North York
North York packs every kind of driving into one district: the condo-dense Yonge–Sheppard core with its pedestrians and transit, wide arterials like Finch, Steeles and Don Mills, the hills and curves of Hoggs Hollow and York Mills — and the 401 and Allen Road cutting straight through the middle.
Our instructors teach on all of it, with free pickup and drop-off anywhere in North York — home, school, condo or work. Lessons run 7 days a week, 9 AM–9 PM.
