I want to know if this company provides driving lessons for adults and foreigners. My mom is willing to learn to drive and her English is not good, could you help with that?

I was a fresh driver and knew nothing about driving. My driver instructor ( Mrs. Otten ) built me the confidence and knowledge about driving and I could not have done it without her. She taught me all the little details I need to pay attention to on the road and about the car, taught me the correct ways to drive, and so much more that helped me pass my test and be a more confident driver

They were amazing! In class was a little rough due to the group of students but there's nothing you can do about that besides deal with it. Although that, I learned a lot from participating, staying in conversation, and listening! My group was very talkative during class so that was quite frustrating, but it was great. Anna was GREAT at covering the important sections, keeping at a good pace, going over what was on quizzes and tests, and using visuals when needed.

She was just a great teacher overall. The driving section went GREAT as well! I had Sharee Venditte as my instructor and she was just amazing. I started as someone with zero experience and she taught me in such a great way to where I passed my drivers test the first time and was hardly nervous while I also had hardly any practice at home due to college classes, and nervous parents, haha!

It was also so amazing to learn the safe and correct way to drive on the roads with full awareness compared to the way lots of others do today and then becoming comfortable. It's also very comforting in the beginning knowing they have a break on their side, haha! If you're looking for yourself, your child, or your student, they are great and perfect!

The classroom portion was really good. Anna is a great teacher. Tony is very degrading. there's a nicer way to correct someone. If you get him you're kinda screwed. I left the car sobbing and scared to drive yay! Good luck tho.

Anna the classroom teacher was really cool and kept things fun. My behind the wheel instructor Mrs. Otten was great and she was very positive when giving corrections. I learned a lot and I feel ready to drive.

This driving school experience is pretty good. The teachers at this school are decent, kind people. Plus, the demo stuff they do is fun as well. The break times and periods feel reasonable as well. I definitely learned quite a bit from here. The only downside is that sitting in this room feels like sitting in an refrigerator.

I came to learn how to drive and left with so much more! I feel I am able to safely transport not only myself but other people! I learned so many things about how to safely be on the road. I learned so many things I didn't know I needed to know! Anna was great! Definitely recommending to anyone!
