I could not be more honest and sincere when I say that this driving school does the job, and does it well. I see that a lot of the reviews complain about the professionalism of this institution, especially when calling on the phone. I met Larry (the guy on the phone) in person and he is one of the sweetest people you could talk to and he actually cares about each individual student.

He also made sure the school is compatible to elderly and disabled customers. I came to Kingston Driving school after I couldn't for the life of me get an appointment with All Star Driving School. When I came, they were very professional and quickly got me in contact with my instructor to schedule my lessons. I am a YSU student studying away from my parents so I really appreciated the fact that they came and picked me up/ dropped me off at home for each lesson.

All Star would not provide a similar service despite me living only 7 minutes from their location. My instructor Marie was very good at teaching me and I was ready for the test after eight hours of driving despite me having no experience driving beforehand. On the day of my test, Larry himself offered to take me because my instructor was unable to due to the inconvenient timing I booked the test.

This driving school actually cares about the success of students and that is why in the future I will, without hesitation, recommend it to anyone searching for a driving school.

I met the owner today, he is a very nice guy. He's very respectful, and he pretty much knew what he's doing. Definitely would recommend him.

The owner is very rude. I was asking him questions for my daughter. And he immediately got smart answering me every question with "first of all" I explain to him what I am talking about. He's too busy getting smart that he's not even listening. Then goes on to say what I was already saying. I had to tell him that he has a bad attitude and will not be getting my services

Critical: Professionalism Whoever returned my phone call about setting up driving courses for my son was rude, judgemental and unprofessional.

Critical: Communication, Professionalism, Value Called to ask a few questions about the program. when I was trying to clarify the answer to the question, whoever answered the phone was very rude and had this aggressive tone when saying the answer again as if it was such a burden to their day.definitely looking elsewhere

Whoever takes phone calls is extremely rude, unprofessional, and doesn't need to be in that position, I simply asked one simple question on how to prepare for an Ohio driving exam, being that this was a training center for driving I thought this would be a good place to get some help, but I was wrong the man made me feel like I was an extreme bother. Never associating with this business again.

I love the driver experience and the instructor is great. However the phone number that is provided here is the home phone so the guy give me the instructor phone number. Hes not rude, but its not very perfessional to have a personal phone number as a business. People will get confused.

I am a 21 year old who at the time in April didn't know how to drive Also had no one in my family with a valid license. I looked and looked for a Driving school until I found Kingston on their Website. Their Prices were the cheapest I've seen and blows away All Star by miles. Spoke to Mr. Kingston and then I got started. My Instructor named Dave was a Very Kind and Patient guy. 2 months later, I did fail my Road test the 1st time but that was 100% on me for entering a Do Not Enter out of Nervousness that I failed the Cones.

Anyway On Try 2 I passed it. I would like to take this time to Thank Kingston and their staff for helping me achieve something I thought I was never going to do or get too. I recommend them to any Teenager or Young Adult who have no one to help them in their family to go to them. They beat everybody else and you won't get a better deal anywhere else.

I took my Adult Abbreviated class yesterday. I wasn't looking forward to it, but I've got to say, it was pretty good. Very informative and useful! Thank you!

I lost my license due to medical reasons, and now need to drive with hand controls. I needed some training time in my vehicle. I was trained by Al, a trainer with a lot of safety knowledge and a lot of good tips. Al talked me through a driving test as well as assisted me with my pylon practice. I spent a total of 5 hours with Al and appreciate his help in preparing me for my test. I passed without issue.
