Skillful Driving School

Sitting here in Lakehurst watching an instructor make a kid place cones and make kid practice parallel parking by orange caution tape with a hornets nest above them. Then made kid go get cones after aggravating the nest.

So much for safety with your child!!!
Really poor judgement.

I was astonished at all the positive reviews here based on my observation. I was driving on 195 West on 5/27 and there was one of Skillfull's student driver cars with 2 students and presumably an instructor. I was stuck behind them for about 10 miles and they were consistently weaving back and forth between lanes. Being in the left lane for NO reason; they weren't passing and they were obstructing traffic.

They also nearly caused an accident twice when swerving lanes, not paying attention. Very bad reflection on the instructor and Skillful. If I gave such driving lessons, I'd be appalled and embarrassed if my students drove like that!

Denise is a very good instructor ( English & Spanish) for everyone that need some preparation for they road test. I am very grateful.

Skillful is really good I highly recommend using their service. Motti really taught me how to drive and the guy who took me to my road test (I forgot his name) Is the reason I passed.

I have used this driving school for all my 3 children. From 2017-2022. I can't say enough about how Esther was so helpful and kind over the years. Especially navigating during the pandemic. Also Both my younger daughters had Josh as an instructor. I highly recommend Josh. He was patient, kind and definitely a confident booster, especially to my youngest daughter. I highly recommend this school to all my friends.

A special Thank You to Joshua driving instructor for skillful driving. The positive experience my son received in his student permit course is very much appreciated.

This school is very professional in the way it conducts its business. My instructor Allan was excellent and super knowledgeable. He was patient, professional and taught me so well. I highly recommend this school. Keep up the good work!

Esther is so nice. And I'm very grateful for Josh teaching my younger brother (17 at the time) while being so kind and patient. My brother really appreciated that Josh made the lesson very enjoyable. Sorry to take so long to post a review. The lesson was in July 2020. I think I wanted to take the time to write many more good things, but now I can't remember those details after more than a year.

Chris was a super chill guy, we got along really well, he's a great instructor and I would recommend him to my friends.

The best customer service I've ever experienced in my life. They are extremely knowledgeable about all DMV services and which DMVs in the area are are best for what. Amazing receptionist who always returns your calls. Pretty good driving school too.

Josh from Skillful Driving School was great with my son. He was one of his instructors for the 6 hour permit training. He taught him well and put my son at ease. We also did the refresher lesson before his test and Josh took him to MVC as well. He was punctual, thorough, and friendly. Highly recommend their service!

Allan from Skillful Driving School was extremely helpful and just an all around great instructor! His teachings helped me pass my road test and the positive energy he emits while teaching is simply amazing. I was extremely nervous before the test but his energy and optimism throughout the practice I had before the test helped calm my nerves. One of the best instructors out there! I would highly recommend him as an instructor!

I moved from Brooklyn to New Jersey and took skillful Driving School to help me get my license. I had Allan for my lessons and then my road test, I was very pleased with how comfortable he made me feel as a completely new driver and allowed me to gain confidence behind the wheel. After learning to drive and passing the road test with Allan's help, I would recommend skillful driving school to anyone looking for acquiring a permit or driver license or just to take driving lessons as the school was very easy to work with and very accommodating. Thank You

I can't say enough about our experience with Allen and Skillful Driving. From the woman on the phone scheduling to the driving instructor, they couldn't be more wonderful. My daughter was so nervous and thanks to Allen she finished her 6 hours with confidence and a solid foundation to begin driving! I would recommend Skillful to anyone and tell them to ask for Allen!

My instructor was Allan and I had a great experience. I got my hours done back to back. It was my first time driving on the road. I would drive in a parking lot for practice and once I tried to go on the road, I ended up getting scared because a car was driving toward me on the opposite lane of course and I felt like I was going to hit it so I pulled over and let my brother drive.

When I was driving with Allan i was a little worried at first driving on the road but he was reassuring me that I wouldn't hit another car and that he had a brake on his side if I got to close. Meanwhile I was driving I would get a little close to the car in the next lane he payed very close attention and notice so he would tell me or he would guide the wheel a little.

He had also made sure to tell me how fast I should be going when I'm turning. Allan had also explained how to do a k turn and parallel park by the end of my hours I felt very good in how to do that. My overall experience was great.

I would recommend their excellent service to everyone! They far surpass five stars!
