Great place to learn

by hazeleys510

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

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...

Not sure if I would recommend

I totally agree with lillianpeach. This is the same exact experience that I had. I can tell which instructor lillianpeach had from this review as well. He really must do this all the time. Shorts you on time... tells so many racial and irrelevant jokes... and gives you a nonsense package deal that forces you to take more single lessons... that so do not help. I feel for you lilianpeach What a scam!

The instructor spent way too much time giving off-color, racially tinged humor than actually prepping for the exam. I had no experience and asked him honestly if the package would be sufficent enough. I took a few extra classes and felt that I wasn't ready to take the road test, but he told me to take it and "see what happens." What happended was failure and a waste of time and money. Talked too much during the lessons making it difficult to concentrate, though some of his little tips did help, but not enough to pass the test. I went driving with one of my friends and did things according to his lessons, and basically they said he was just taking my money
