Driving in a new country is different: new rules, new signs, winter roads. Mahdi teaches newcomers in Ottawa in English, French or Arabic, so you can ask questions in the language you are comfortable with and practise the way Ontario drivers are expected to drive.
If you already drive in your home country, you are not starting from zero, but some things in Ontario will be new to you.
Bring your licence to every session: the lesson cannot take place without it. If you are not sure which licence you can hold or which test you need, call Mahdi on 613-640-6400 and he will tell you what he knows. For the official rules, the Ontario government is the final word.
