    • Parking techniques
    • Emergency situation and accident avoidance skills

      Who are these packages for?

      Hourly lesson packages are for students who already have their learners permit (or foreign license), have some driving experience, and are planning to complete their driving exam at Access PEI. This includes teenagers and adults who have held a PEI learners permit for 12 months already, or have experience driving in other countries. Students may complete as few or as many hourly lessons as they wish. 

      If you have a driving license from another country, you may qualify for our Experienced Driver Education Program. If you have no driving experience or do not yet have your learners permit, we strongly recommend the New Driver Education Program. 

      How long does it take to complete lessons?

      Once registered, we will reach out to you within one business day to schedule your lessons. Generally, we can schedule all of your lessons within a few weeks of registering.

      Why take Hourly Driving Lessons?

      Learning to drive with a qualified instructor is the best, and safest way for drivers to learn. Even drivers with significant driving experience regularly fail their driving exam due to small, but critical errors. Completing lessons with one of our certified driving instructors ensures that you will be taught the correct way of doing things for your driving exam.  

      What if I need more than 4.5 or 6 hours?

      No problem! Once you are registered for 4.5 hours or more, extra lessons can be added to your account at the reduced rate of $50/hr+hst. To add additional lessons to your account, contact us via email or phone.

      Hourly driving lessons fees are due in full upon registration.
