CS Driving School

Mar 2024

My daughter, Grace attended CS driving school during the pandemic when there was a shortage of driving instructors. As a result, scheduling the road lessons was especially challenging and my daughter's ability to get her license was dependent upon completing the road hours. I reached out to the owner, Anna and she personally scheduled the hours to make sure that Grace was able to complete her road hours quickly and helped us get her scheduled for her road test sooner. During that time I can honestly say that Anna went above and beyond the call of duty - she provided Grace with moral support and made her feel confident in herself behind the wheel and in life. I can't recommend this school enough - thank you Anna!

Best Driving School in the area. Highly recommend! Appreciated the technical driving maneuver videos and the instructors who worked with my kid. Shout out to Arsenio who built up my daughter's confidence. Anna Sab is great-straight shooter. Her husband was at the RMV for road test day. Communication between CS and parents was great. Attend any zoom meetings and watch videos as a parent. Getting instructor hour appointments was sometimes tricky in beginning-but tell your kid not to give up and keep trying to sign up for instructor hours when it's sign up time or get on waiting list for cancellations. Highly recommend paying the extra $ if you can afford it to have CS Driving School sponsor the road test and use their driving instruction cars. Made things much easier and honestly, it was better for me not to be the sponsor in the backseat of the road test car. IMO parents must practice driving with their kid as much as possible-above and beyond the required parent supervision hours. As hard, scary and frustrating as it can be! I spent hours at night practicing parallel parking with my kid the "CS Driving School way" (also 50 ft back up, parking on a hill maneuvers, and 3 point turns). My kid passed the road test because of her commitment to learning to drive, CS Driving School instructors, and the practice driving hours she did with me. Thank you CS Driving School for preparing my kid to drive on the very busy streets of the Watertown area, where adults with drivers licenses don't adhere to basic traffic rules & laws, buses and Amazon trucks drive like no one else is on the road, bicyclists don't adhere to rules of the road, and very few drivers in MA seems to USE THEIR BLINKER ANYMORE!

We've been trying to make appointments for the behind-the-wheel hours. They all disappear within 1 minute of being posted for a month. We we barely able to get a single driving slot for the next month. At this rate, it'll take over a year to get the necessary hours. They have way too few staff but keep taking $ from parents. Edit to add: If you call them and fuss, instead of using the official system, they'll start offering you hours as they become available. You still need to respond within seconds. They need a better, more fair system, but it works if you stay on top of it and don't mind complaining (sigh)
