AMA Driver Education is a driving school located at 524 Willow Park Village 10816 Macleod Trail SE in Calgary, AB. We offer fully certified in-class, virtual and online courses, as well as in-vehicle driving lessons. From new driver training to driver improvement courses and fleet driver training, our programs are regularly reviewed and updated by our driving experts to provide training that prepares drivers for Alberta’s roads. Our instructors are rigorously interviewed, tested and certified to exceed provincial standards, and are always improving with ongoing professional development. For more than 80 years, Albertans have trusted us to teach them the knowledge and skills they need to drive confidently.
I highly recommend Yukta — the best driving instructor I’ve ever had! He teaches with so much patience and consideration, which made a huge difference for me. As a busy mom with limited time to learn, I truly appreciated how understanding and flexible he was.
From my very first lesson, I was amazed by his clear explanations and easy-to-remember techniques — things I had never learned from my previous instructor. His calm teaching style and helpful tips made everything feel simple and achievable.
If you’re looking for an instructor who makes learning to drive stress-free and enjoyable, Yukta is definitely the one to choose!

I will never use or recommend AMA driving school.
-Scheduling was a nightmare, sometimes having 4 to 6 weeks in between sessions
-Instructor counselling five minutes into the session.
-Customer service unable to get a hold of management to help Find resolution.
- Instructor picked up my child from school with another adult male in the backseat.
- Instructor dropping my child off with 30 minutes left in the session as there was not enough time to do the other things.
-Instructor had my child pick up his brother from an appointment.
I am incredibly disappointed I chose AMA As I thought this was the premier driving education, school, and paid what I thought was expensive. Never again I will go to another driving school for my other children.

Total SCAM!!!
Paid for all the lessons, even the extra lessons and then booked the test for $150. Daughter saved up 2 months for that test. Showed up 1/2 hour early, the tester found a small light out and cancelled the test. Gave us no time to fix and then told us we need to reschedule. When I called to reschedule, they said your money is gone, pay again. It's in the testor's best interest to find fault, take your money and go have a coffee. AMA takes no accountability, said it was the government's fault, too bad for you.

We signed up in August. Got my daughters first in car training in October. First session was fine. On her second session the Instructor texted her 2 hrs prior to her start time to change the time to later in the day. For her next session, the instructor no showed with no contact. AMA said they would get her another instructor. We’re now told we have to wait until December to get another session. Not worth the $1000 we spent for lessons.
