Really great Education. The teaching was entertaining and was the highlight of every day in which I was taking these classes and drives. Would give 10 stars if possible

Overall a great experience! thank you for everything DDS!
The classes are comprehensive, however the actual drives could be better. The instructors don’t usually give you much warning before having you make turns, which can make the situation rather stressful when there is so much to be paying attention to. More of a balance in corrections and positive affirmations would be so helpful, this keeps things instructive while keeping the students in a more frame of mind.
It was a very helpful and straightforward drivers Ed program. I’d recommend this to people who are looking to start drivers Ed.
