Driving Schools near Highland Park

“They are very professional and timely with all forms. They definitely take their job as providing quality instruction that creates safe drivers very seriously! My son was able to get his license soon after turning 16 and is driving everywhere!! He is a great confident driver and he found the instructors are very nice! They come right to your house to pick up for the driving portion, which is very convenient and were always on time! They were very accommodating in working on areas we requested additional attention.“

“Rebecca was a great instructor. She was very patient and accommodating to get my son's lessons scheduled.“

“Walter is a strange but exceptionally amazing teacher! Kids learn the rules of the roads easily.“

“It was a great experience for our daughter. It’s well run, and her instructor, Joe, was the best. We're looking forward to going through the program again with our son.“

“First thing that i want to add in this review is a program and theory class. It’s very interesting to listen to teacher(For me it was Johnny), and i especially like that teacher trying to be on the same page with student, and doing it pretty well if to be honest. Secondly, driving practice was actually fun and Johnny was patient during driving and in the same time trusting. In the end i want to thank Johnny and other stuff for this amazing experience!“

“Pierre was very nice and very clear when it came to learning, he was understanding and patient aswell.“

“A huge shout out to Fern and her entire team for great customer service delivered with kindness and compassion. My daughter was a reluctant driver and everyone supported her (and me!) throughout the journey. All the driving instructors were positive and kind, but I'd like to send a special thanks to Mr. D'Angelo who spent the most time with her behind the wheel. Thanks to you all!“

“I had stopped in on two other driving schools before choosing ADDS. One felt like a wrong fit, mostly due to availability and the other (also in Evanston) had a front desk person who was condescending and gave what I knew was incorrect information.
As an elderly woman, new to Illinois and not having driven for over a year, this challenge was almost overwhelming.
From the minute I entered the office of ADDS, I felt comfortable. First contact was the very busy Kemyta, who was juggling phone, paperwork, walk-ins and still smiling. When she was free, she asked me a few questions, then showed me how to maneuver their website, which had practice tests and much other information. There was also a voice behind a partition - an instructor giving a lesson to a group of high school students. Kemyta and I discussed my tailored requirements including pickup and dropoff as well as instruction for written test, driving test and all the crazy paperwork associated with an out of state elderly person licensing situation. Kemyta assured me that the owner, Doug Whitmore, a retired state policeman, would lead me through the process.
When I met Doug, I asked him to be very straightforward with criticisms because I wanted to get this right. In turn, he gave encouragement, precise feedback, directions and kindly- phrased criticisms. After each session, I received a detailed summary from Doug’s wife Andrea, while Doug was off giving CDL lessons for truck drivers. Text messages and emails were answered in reasonable time. This group had so many dimensions but operates very compatibly.
I was apprehensive about taking the test and asked if I should have one more lesson, but Doug said he thought I could pass and gave specific issues on which to focus. He easily could have had another payment from me, but he took the high road (no pun intended).
I passed all the testing and got a license. Yay! This company is like family. They care about your success, know what they are doing, kind, moral and truly a pleasure to work with.“

“I had Mr. Lucas as my teacher and he is a person who makes a boring class fun and interesting. Because of this I booked all 8 of my driving lessons with him and I genuinely looked forward to our conversations and just driving with him for a hour. He is a great guy and knows what he is doing.“
