Driving Schools near Campbell

“I had a great experience with Forward Driving School. I had all my classes with Eric who was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and made the whole experience smooth and positive. Thanks to his guidance I felt well prepared and passed on the first try at DMV San Jose Alma. I highly recommend forward driving school and instructor Eric to anyone looking for quality driving education.“

“I’ve taken driving lessons from Lance several times in the course of 5 years. He is relaxed, knowledgeable about driving, attentive, etc. Also, he would break it up into 1 hour lessons at times. I highly recommend him!“

“Overall, I think my experience with A-Z was pretty decent. The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. My first lesson with Katie was pretty good. She was very helpful, and she me feel comfortable driving for the first time. She also left some insightful comments on my score sheet so that I could improve my driving skills. My second instructor was Wassim(who I think was the owner). I must say he is very knowledgeable and he wanted to teach me the best driving practices. During my lesson, he was training a new driving coach. But I must say, he was often condescending and passive aggressive . He would often cask me "how do you think you could have done better?" or something like that. I was new to driving, so it made me rather nervous having someone speak to me like that. Also during the lesson, Wassim just randomly asked me to parallel park in a residential area, told me to "think about how to improve" and then just left the vehicle for several minutes. I thought that was rather odd. But I must say, despite all that I've mentioned about him, Wassim did point out various bad driving habits I had and tried to help me improve. As an example I had a hard time handling the steering wheel, my hands didn't cross correctly and sometimes I just kept them fixed when turning. This caused my turns to be too wide. Wassim would spend a lot of time trying to help me improve this, as it was one of the basic skills of driving. He also gave me reminders such as what to check when changing lanes and the most effective way to slow down at a traffic light. So overall, I think Wassim was pretty good, he just made me a little nervous when he was talking at times. My third instructor was OK(I don't remember her name unfortunately). She told me I was doing pretty well, so besides giving me the occasional reminder, she spent much of the lesson on her phone. It was slightly nerve wracking, as I was still pretty new to driving. But she did give some feedback. Overall, I would recommend A-Z driving school. They have pretty good instructors so if you're learning how to drive, you know you're in good hands“

“Best driving school hands down. It's not that costly compared to other driving schools for the 3 lessons I needed for the behind the wheel training certificate, but it definitely gave an "expensive experience." They provide the vehicle for you to use with the instructor. They know the rules of the road (according to the dmv standard) extremely well. It's said on the website "we are always on time." Well, they weren't lying. Anmol arrived exactly when he said he would, even earlier actually. Anmol went above and beyond to provide a perfect experience when he didn't have to. If you are considering going here for your certificate, do it. If you want to go here as an already licensed driver, do it. For me, watching how-to videos online is helpful, and so is driving with your parents! But to go behind the wheel with professionals who not only know how to drive well but actually study according to dmv stands, is superior. I'm happy to report I passed my first try, with only 2 errors (speed, stopping for too long as a stop sign). Good luck everyone.“

“I had to take a driving test for employment. I would give more stars if I could. Richard is absolutely amazing and future students will greatly benefit from his instruction. He is calm, empathetic and professional. Thank you Richard!!“

“I am very happy with the instruction that my three kids were given by Rick at Blue Ribbon. They successfully passed their DMV road tests and have learned important driving skills. I highly recommend Blue Ribbon to all my friends with teens.“

“I had a great experience with Mr. Ray and my instructor Mr. Moon from the Cupertino driving school. Starting from the get go to passing my driving test in my first attempt they made sure I am comfortable and confident in learning how to drive. I recommend them ? to get your driving license.“

“I had a wonderful experience with my driving instructor Eric! He is super nice and helped me calm my nerves on the road and for the DMV behind the wheels test! Would highly recommend!“

“Alan is an amazing instructor, and I can’t recommend him highly enough for anyone who needs to learn how to drive. He is probably the best instructor in the Bay Area, and he will get you confidently driving in no time!

I did 9 lessons with Alan over a period of 1 month, and he took me from being not very confident (after trying out three lessons a different instructor) to passing my test and driving well on the freeway! This was done with zero practice in between lessons.

Alan is extremely professional, is always on time, and delivers same day feedback. He also tailors his teaching style to the student’s learning style, and is keen on understanding his students’ thought process if mistakes are made, so they can be properly fixed.

For every single weakness I had in my driving, Alan had a strategy to fix it - this included fixing my turning speed, correctly using my mirrors, lane positioning and keeping the wheel straight. He is adept at observing to see exactly what the student is doing wrong and coming up with a formula to correct it.

Additionally, he is extremely professional. He was always punctual and polite, never raised his voice and never did anything that diminished my confidence in any way as a student who was initially struggling. I have always had some anxiety about driving, but I actually looked forward to my lessons because I started to enjoy driving as I could feel myself improving. On the day of the lesson, he made sure that I was confident and encouraged me not to feel anxious, and I was happy to pass on my first try.

Scheduling is also easy on the website, and the response rate is fast. If you need to learn how to drive, you can’t go wrong with Alan at Perfect Score!

(Copying over my review from yelp because I know the struggle of finding a great instructor and Perfect Score was amazing!)“

“I passed my driving test on the first attempt with no prior driving experience and I could not have done it without Thomas (Tom)! He is a fantastic instructor, patient and supportive throughout every lesson, helped me build confidence behind the wheel and took the time to explain everything clearly, step by step. I truly appreciate his guidance and would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive.

Thank you so much, Tom!“

“Good and calm teacher , always give suggestions while driving on the roads, really recommended“

“This school is hands down a great school to attend if you're looking to get your commercial driver's license. It's family owned and operated and by the time you've completed the course, you really feel like you've connected with the staff and students as if you were family. From the start of this journey with this school, the owners were super fast at reaching out to get me enrolled and started. They invited my wife and I and my child to come in and enroll which I thought was pretty cool. It allowed my family to see where I would be and what type of environment I would be practicing in. They gave me 30 days to acquire my permit and my medical examination certificate which was plenty of time to study and get started. Within a week I was ready to rock and I started right away. They're patient, welcoming and at the same time on a mission as you are to succeed. One thing I thought was pretty cool was they are stern and it may seem intimidating at first, but let's face it, it's a serious license and responsibility to be on the road with such heavy vehicles so I didn't take it personal. I just strived to get better everyday so they understood that I understood them. They give you the opportunity to work with fellow students so everyone understands the position of the instructors and gives you the feel of what they are trying to accomplish with us as students. Sure it may seem like alot of money to enroll but they have asphalt in the yard and not dirt and potholes so you're smooth with the clutch and level so you can adjust your skills properly. The trucks are newer Freighliner day cabs which I was particularly a fan of with my past experience driving straight truck Freightliners and felt comfortable in. Sure you can goto another school and pay less but are you going to get much time behind the wheel or time in the truck to practice skills with a ton of students because of the price? When it comes down to it, it's what you're trying to accomplish. They give you the trucks and the yard to practice in and the directions to master the skills, but let's be real, it's on you as the student to take it seriously, pay attention, and take advantage of the time spent there and really do what you need to do, set a date which is a self goal to strive for and get that license and start making good money. They're open Tuesday-Saturday 8am-1:30p to assure they're closed by 2pm. They take students on Saturdays if the week schedule doesn't work for you. It's really a matter of what you want out of it and whether your money is gonna get you what you want. I enjoyed the experience of being watched and taught and having the trust to allow us to all do it without someone constantly on your neck. That's just my personal opinion and preference and everyone I attended with felt the same way. We worked together as students after being given direction to accomplish one goal, to be a commercial truck driver. Keep an open mind, don't be cocky and act like a know it all, because it won't get you nowhere. The staff are there to teach you and allow you to try on your own and if you don't want to take your skill seriously, then maybe go somewhere else. In just over 8 weeks I believe I completed my course and got my CDL. I appreciate the staff greatly for being patient, kind, encouraging and really believing in me that I could make this move for my family and I couldn't be more greatful. I enjoyed everyday of it. Thank you Helen, Daniel, Mario, Tony and Henry for everything. Proud to say I graduated from Coast to Coast and would and have already recommended this school to friends that are considering getting their CDL.“

“Very good driving school, enthusiastic instructor, very satisfied with the course! With the instructor's careful guidance and my own efforts, I passed the test! Thanks to the instructor!“

“Great place! Very patient instructor and clear instructions, I passed my behind the wheel test on my first try! And only after a couple sessions with him. Highly recommend, he communicates clearly and has a sense of humour“

“Beverly Driving School is the absolute best. Mr. Mack helped us when we were in extreme need of a driving session. I was referred to Mack by another driving school. He answered all of my questions and was extremely willing to help. He worked with our schedule and insured that my son was very comfortable. Best of all when my son took his test, he checked in on us to ask if he passed. He was extremely happy to know that my son passed his drivers test and is now a licensed driver. What’s best is you can honestly tell that he is passionate about his work, and really cares about his students, thank you Mac“

“I Highly Recommend this Driving School!!!! I failed on my first attempt but with more practice, and with my teachers support and guidance..Slowly I see my progress!!! I really appreciate Fereshteh, Aziz and Faraz they were very keen in correcting my driving skills and that boost my confidence.From a Clueless student to a more aware, calm and mindful driver. They taught me to understand the flow of traffic, intersection, change of lanes and to conquer my fear in the highway. I took the Halifax road test which some say is the Hardest location, but my teacher never gave up on me..? And Yes I Passed! Im so Thankful for all my Teachers?????“

“I took the Test Day Course with David and it was great! I already have a licence from another country and needed to freshen up my driving before the behind the wheel exam - David was a great teacher and showed me some tricky spots that come up in the Redwood City driving test. The itinerary during the exam was almost the same as we had practiced and I was so glad I had the insider tips - I would have definitely failed if I didn't!“

“I got to know about Susan from my friend circle and she is one of the best driving instructors in my area. She is well experienced and professional, covers all minute details of driving, traffic rules, safety instructions, provides insights on the driving techniques in systematic way.
I strongly recommend Susan for anyone who wants to learn driving efficiently or brush up the driving skills. Thank you Susan for the help and support.“

“I got my Class A license today. Great school and instructors are really cooperative. Satisfied with this school. Thank you Doaba Truck driving school.“

“He is phenomenal he helped me clear my behind the wheels test in just one class. Highly recommend Javed sir.“

“I highly recommend, I took my lessons with Gilberto and he was very patient and helpful throughout each of the lessons, and I was able to pass my test on my first try. It was also very easy to schedule lessons.“

“Very affordable and easy to follow. The only issue I am having is someone picking up the phone. I have been trying to make my final payment for over 2 weeks now. I called multiple time and left a voicemail and no answer or call back. I need to pay so I can have my documents sent over to DMV please.“

“If you have no time to wait at DMV for register your new vehicle then this place is where you should go. Quick and easy. They do charge a small fee but it's better than waiting in line at DMV for 3 hours. Whole process took about 10 min. Even got my new license plate there.“
