When there was a scheduling issue on this last Saturday, Sam was extremely disrespectful and abrasive towards me. I felt that I was verbally assaulted. I tried to explain this to the office staff today I was blown off and my concerns where not addressed. My daughter does not deserve to be treated in this manner as she is a very good and respectful student and has done everything that has been asked of her is a respectful manner.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with 911 Driving School…read more I paid over $630 each for two of my kids to attend driving school, and for that kind of money, I expected to actually be able to schedule their required drives in a reasonable amount of time. Instead, there is little to no availability, and we have been placed on a cancellation list that never seems to move. One of my kids was able to complete one drive and thankfully has another scheduled toward the end of the month. My other child cannot even get her first drive until the end of the month. On top of that, I can't schedule anything for the following month because there is currently nothing available to book. It is incredibly frustrating to spend well over $1,200 for two students and then be told it could take months just to complete their drives because there aren't enough appointments available. If you are accepting this many students and charging families this much money, there should be adequate staffing and drive availability to accommodate them. At this point, I feel like I could have taught them myself and saved a significant amount of money. I understand that Washington State has requirements for teen drivers, but families shouldn't be paying hundreds of dollars per student only to discover after enrolling that scheduling the required drives is nearly impossible. To make matters worse, when I called for assistance, I found the staff to be rude and unhelpful rather than understanding or willing to help find a solution. For the amount of money families are paying, I expected much better availability, communication, and customer service. This experience has been extremely discouraging and frustrating.

*** Review for 3-day beginner motorcycle permit course ***…read more Let me begin by saying that Sherry Jennings and Sean Grimm are absolutely excellent instructors; you can really tell they care about keeping you safe. Sherry's enthusiasm and passion for motorcycling and teaching were amazing. She has a very vibrant way of teaching that easily holds your attention. Both Sherry and Sean were super helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. They WANT you to succeed and they're beyond great at what they do. That being said, it would be nice if the class sizes could be smaller. Our class was 16 riders. On the range, we had both instructors present, but I felt like if there had been fewer riders, there would have been more room for individualized help and feedback. I want to be very clear that this is a critique of the WMST class itself and NOT a fault of the instructors in any way--the instructors truly did their absolute best to help everyone and spent extra time with the people who needed it most while still being attentive to everyone. Having more time on the range would also be helpful for nailing skills down. The bikes seemed to be well-maintained (take with a grain of salt since I only rode two). I liked that we got to pick what style of bike we wanted to ride. I felt extremely lucky with my classmates; everyone was super kind and supportive of each other, which was awesome! Honestly, a big highlight of this experience for me was the other wonderful people taking the course alongside me--to say they were great would be an understatement. *** End of review, advice below *** I have literally zero experience with motorcycles and was lucky enough to pass my permit exams first try. FOR ALL MY FELLOW COMPLETE BEGINNERS, PLEASE TAKE MY ADVICE!! This is a whole new skill you're learning and you absolutely need to set yourself up for success! *Your course includes the Champ U NEW RIDER online course, at the BARE MINIMUM you need to complete the portions outlined in the email. But don't stop there. COMPLETE THE WHOLE ENTIRE ONLINE COURSE **BEFORE** YOUR IN-PERSON COURSE! You really need to set yourself up for success with the book learning, especially if you don't have access to practice with a motorcycle. Even if you have previous experience, I would still recommend completing the entire online course because you want any misconceptions corrected before they possibly hurt you. The online course covers a lot of great stuff, there's really no reason not to do it (it's free!). Plan ahead and start it early because it takes a while to get through everything, but this is a lifelong skill and I promise you it's totally worth it! *ENGAGE IN CLASSROOM DISCUSSIONS!!! PAY ATTENTION DURING CLASSROOM PORTIONS! Show the instructors that you are listening by engaging with the discussions! IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, ASK! The instructors are super friendly and are more than happy to explain anything you're wondering about. *Watch videos of the permit test on YouTube so you know what to expect *Take deep breaths and try to relax! Watch what everyone else is doing and see how everybody is making mistakes. IT'S OK! That's part of learning! It helps your confidence when you realize that pretty much everyone else is struggling and learning too! If you don't pass the first time, don't beat yourself up. This is difficult and there's a LOT to process. You can know what you need to do and still panic under the pressure of a test. Just do your best and don't give up. Stay safe!

A friend wanted to get his motorcycle license so I decided to take the class with him. We took the…read more3 day "Learn to Ride" class with WMST in Auburn. This class is the first of two classes to get the motorcycle endorsement. Passing the Learn to Ride class gives you the permit, allowing you to legally ride and practice riding for six months but with some restrictions (not riding with other passengers or at night among other things). Passing the returning rider course gives you the actual endorsement that does not have any restrictions. The Auburn classroom location is next to the Johnny Rocket's and across the Dave & Buster's at the Outlet Collection Mall. Day 1 was on Friday evening and consisted of a couple of hours of learning safety rules, myths vs facts, tips, and laws of riding motorcycles in the classroom. Day 2 started off on the range where we rode the motorcycles provided by the class and learned the basics of riding. In the afternoon, we went back to the classroom to learn the rest of the material and then took the written test. Day 3 was on the range where we continued practicing our riding abilities and then ended with the riding exam. The written exam consisted of 50 multiple choice questions (mostly common sense questions) and you need an 80% to pass. The riding exam consisted of 5 riding exercises to test basic riding abilities. Now onto the class itself: it is meant for beginners and those with no motorcycle riding experience, but the instructors moved quickly and skipped a couple of things that I thought would've been important to tell students in case they have no knowledge about motorcycles. Extremely simple things like how to know if a bike is too big for you, how to shift gears, and how to properly hold the handles without getting wrist pain. I learned a good amount of the basics from asking other riders because our instructors didn't teach us for whatever reason. It's a class where they let you go and figure things out on your own and they jump in when you need it. I like that but I'd also appreciate knowing how to do some things to help accelerate our learning. At some points the instructor was more interested in telling jokes than actually teaching the class which wasn't ideal. I never planned on buying a motorcycle or riding one on the road, but I wanted to try something new and this was an educational class that got me out of my comfort zone. I passed both exams which I'm happy about but the class itself wasn't the best experience. The instructors were interesting characters but not the best educators. Some other things I wish I would've known: - You can use hiking boots as your riding boots. This would've prevented me from buying motorcycle boots just for the course that I won't use again. - They have helmets that you can borrow if you don't have one. Again, I bought a helmet just for the course. - Read the motorcycle operating manual before the class so terminology is not new to you if you're not familiar with riding.

Sylvan test scores mean nothing in mainstream academics, it was created to reflect that schools have poor testing outcomes and "SURPRISE" Sylvan's test scores are significantly higher so they can boast "wow, look how great your kiddo does when they come to Sylvan". I had a meeting prior to enrolling and made it crystal clear that the issue I was having was getting class work-that turns into-homework completed and that my kiddo often "miscommunicates" his missing assignments to me. I also told Sylvan my kiddo has some mental delays and the pressure of helping at home was causing a bit too much stress. Sylvan told me not to worry, that they'd check for missing assignments on-line and they ensured me that this was something they run across all the time and achieve great success. However, a little over 2 months in and I've had to talk to Sylvan twice about my kiddo not completing missing assignments (now 2-3 weeks behind on assignments that were accessible on-line at Sylvan). I found out that just before I had my last sit down meeting with Sylvan that 2 of their staff used my kiddos time to probe with questions before I arrived, I was not aware during my meeting that their staff had been questioning my kiddo. My kiddo later told me that the questioning cause anxiety that the question were so specific that they like they were in trouble and they were scared. During this meeting that I had scheduled with one staff person a second person entered the meeting unannounced and then turned everything back on my kiddo and they even lied about their statements they had made directly to me, it felt like an ambush. One of the staff people was someone who I had never met and who didn't even introduce herself before taking a tone about my kiddo. It was obvious that Sylvan had failed to meet basic standards so they prepared themselves for our last meeting by targeting the kiddo with the mental delays without the parent present in order to blame the child for his homework time at Sylvan not being utilized. My kiddo also said that those two Sylvan employees hangout and visit with each other for about the first hour and say "just ask us if you need any help" because there are no other student besides themselves during that time, my kiddo said they don't want to go and interrupt the two staff visiting so they don't really feel helped at all. I came to Sylvan for a reason and I specifically called out my areas of concern, they told me everything I wanted to hear in-order to get me to sign-up and yet they blame the child when they fail to follow through. I am applauded on several levels, Sylvan not being accountable for their lack of consistency, Sylvan questioning my kiddo and causing them to feel unsafe, Sylvan's unprofessional conduct and their self serving testing/curriculum.

That is not an exaggeration. Every single team gymnast who has been on teams for more than the past season has left. Most have either quit gymnastics entirely or are driving to other gyms 20 or more miles farther away to get better coaching and a better system for team gymnastics. This gym was previously acceptable for a local gym for recreational classes, but even those now are subpar. After staying at Sky Valley far longer than we should have, we have recently moved our daughter to another gym at the recommendation of many other ex-Sky Valley parents. The difference was somewhat shocking, with so much more positivity and progress for the gymnasts involved. The coaches at the new gym seem to genuinely care about the gymnasts and their success, unlike the last year or two at Sky Valley. We definitely should have changed gyms much sooner. I cannot speak to the quality of the ninja warrior classes at Sky Valley, as they seem fine but I have not had a child in those. We have had our daughter in gymnastics there for multiple years and can confidently say that any previous quality in the coaching and team competition that existed in the past is now gone.

Truck driving school is quite an investment of time and money and you have to make sure that its for you. You also want to do it right - it's a hell of a lot of responsibility and it is not easy. Driving a truck is a calling and a profession. I took time to research the trucking schools between the Canadian border and south to Everett. I checked out the reviews, the websites and I took the time to drive around Skagit, Whatcom and Snohomish counties looking for a great truck driving school - driving around their yards and snooping around. I chose TaylorMade Truck Driving School in Burlington and I have no regrets. They are not the least costly school, but the program is very thorough and anticipates all of the costs extra. They will work with you, and they won't give up on you. This made all of the difference for me. The instruction was top notch. The instructors are all very different, but they meet and talk in the mornings and at the end of each day. Each student's learning day is graded; the score cards are used as talking points between the instructors. This communication of student progress really allows for a high level of individually tailored instruction. The best part is that the lead instructor is a natural at teaching. He really gets it and truly understands that every person learns differently; the key to success in teaching is finding out how each student learns. It certainly worked for me, an old guy who needed a late life career change. This old dog learned some new tricks and I have the folks at Taylor Made TDS to thank. They rock!
