I've taken lessons off and on throughout the years.Due to my great anxiety I have never completed and got my license. I was recommended this school by my real estate lawyer of all people. As soon as Valarie and I started driving, I knew this time was different. Her teaching is on a whole different level than I've ever had before. She explains everything clearly and gently. And she is funny!!! Ive also never felt so comfortable driving with someone before. She didnt yell or complain or make negative remarks like some instructors. She gave me more confidence than I ever thought I would have and I passed my first test! This is one place I never expected to enjoy. Truly...read full review
What a hidden gem. I tried to get in with a different driving school and I couldn't. This company was my second choice so what a surprise to me that it turned out wonderful. From the 5 hour class to the driving test, I really felt supported throughout. Thank you Warren and Valerie. Thank you for all you do.
After calling for about a week, I finally got through and got lessons booked pretty quickly. Other than that little snafu, everything else after that was absolutely wonderful. We did the 5 hour class and a 4 pack of lessons. Valarie was as good as I had hoped based on feedback I have read here and Reddit. We took advice and went to the Academy first but we weren't impressed at all! Condescending behavior is not my thing. Neither is being taught like im a 5 year old. This school was complete professionalism. And I even had a little fun! Highly recommend like everyone else!!
