WA driving rules are very different since I got my license. Having your child go through a driving…read morecourse to receive their license is a good thing. Being educated from a third-party is better than trying to learn from your own parents. For mental reasons, the third-party instruction is more forgiving to your child. Their prices are comparable to most, but by far, are more advanced than other courses around us. Their driving instructors are also law enforcement officers still serving or retired. I recommend this driving school for everyone to use.

I chose this school thinking the instructors would be cool, calm, and collected for our nervous new…read morelearner. This was the case on the first drive, however it definitely was not the case on the second drive. The driving instructor completely lost his cool before even leaving the parking lot and continued to do so multiple times making the situation progressively worse. We heard from another new driver to avoid Brad S. at all cost, but didn't catch it in time. In my opinion, if the instructor is instigating and escalating a hostile driving environment, using bullying tactics while in a position of authority over minors, it's time to find other employment. I called and left an angry parent message and the office called me back and was very polite and a couple days later the owner called and said he'd look into the situation and took the incident very seriously. Since the one terrible incident, things have been much better with other instructors. More updates to come...

Verla was an amazing instructor. She was patient, understanding and funny, but didn't allow class to stray from where it needed to be. These sessions taught you beyond the ordinary, helping to give you understanding on not only defensive driving techniques but also added a few much needed life skills. I now feel far more prepared to become a responsible person in society, as well as drive on a road of many possibly dangerous situations. Glenda was also an amazing teacher! She has been my instructor on our drives. She is very kind and calm. It has been great learning from these people. It was such a joy to have kind teachers who were willing to help guide me in the right direction. Thank you for all that you do!

Several other driving schools were not answering calls in Tacoma so we found 1st Avenue. The ladies answering calls have always been friendly and informative. I called several times to confirm info and they were always patient with me. When we went in to take the test, everyone was friendly. Sean failed the written the first time but took the second time for no extra cost and passed. We practiced on our own using the DOL videos on what to practice. We practiced for three days and he took the driving test here and passed with 95%. Everyone was friendly this time also. They have adapted to Covid protocols very well with seating arrangements and sanitizers throughout. It's understandable Sean had to use their car, that's probably the law as far as I know. The car was basic enough for him to see everything. I see another review where someone had difficulty seeing the speedometer. That's very unlikely in these basic Ford cars. Plus my husband is Asian and not an excellent driver in my opinion, but good enough to follow laws and drive safely. So if he can pass, I guarantee it's possible for others! Sean and I were very happy with this school and recommend it. Excellent prices as well.

Received one call and I called them back and left message. No return call, I sent them proof of only one call from them and they said I needed to cancel 72 hours before class and that they lost out on a seat when I didn't. Hard to do when the class started less than 15 hours after I signed up. I emailed them back it was a simple mistake and they refused to move my daughter to the May 14 start date and took my $99 deposit. Truly unbelievable, I have their crappy responses via email if anyone is curious.
