The best there is

I'm Mr. Steve's daughter. I believe the review written by jacobsmillenium and lillianpeach was another driving school because of competition.

My father has been teaching people how to drive for over 40 years. This is how he met my mother. When I was little, I would go to work with him, and I was not allowed to make a sound when he was teaching.

I know that sometimes his jokes are tacky, but they are always done in a lightharted manner and to help relax the nerves of new drivers.

Other driving schools do what is called "piggy backing". PIggy backing is when, toward the end of the lesson, have the first student drive to pick up the second student, then have the second student drive the first student home. This is what the other driving schools do to make extra money. My father refuses to do this becasue it takes away time from his students and could possible make them more nervous.

My father cares about his student and goes out of his way for them. He is a good driving teaching and a good person. If you want a good teacher who will give you an honest opinion on your driving and how to improve, you will not find a better school than Mr. Steve's Driving School.

Great place to learn

I took lessons and thought the information I received let me decide how many lessons I should take. Lillianpeach and jacobsmillenium seems as if they copy and pasted the same review.....hmmmm same person perhaps?

During the lessons I learned where my mistake were and was encouraged to practice with family or friends if possible, which I did, and honed my skills. I was encouraged to take the road test but felt I wasn't ready and said so, perhaps something Lillian peach and jacobsmillenium didn't do, and continued taking lessons until I felt I could pass.

Sometimes the jokes were a little much but I found asking questions about how I was doing lessened them and I was more focused on improving than I was on humor. I also knew there were other instructors so if I wanted to see how I would do with someone else I could call up and switch instructors. I found the environment friendly, light, and open making me want to continue learning.

Anyone can have a family or friend teach them how to drive...if you don't like the person who's teaching you, get out and don't take anymore lessons.

If you want someone who is willing to work with you to develop your skills I would reccommend going to Mr. Steve's.

• Pros: Open and honest about experience

definitely recommend...um everyone's experience is different i guess

i thought the intstructor was very detailed and gave exactly the information necessary to pass the test. he had his moment with the jokes but it was all in good humor and certainly not personally offensive. he never shorted me on any of my time, the one time he showed up 5 minutes late he gave me my 5 minutes back. his package plans were more then fair in comparison to the other schools out there as well as even makes it so you can use a payment plan if you dont have all the money upfront.

i guess everyone's experiences really are different...as far as failing the road test no one is guaranteed to pass and truthfully to other guy if he said "lets see what happens" its probably because most people say they think they're not ready when they are, they're just nervous. maybe he didnt want you to think he was trying to get more money from you by giving you more lessons that werent warranted...
