I am a nervous student and hence it's very important to have a calm instructor. Would definitely recommend for anyone learning to drive.

I took lessons with Paul 5 years ago. I was 30 years old. I had never driven and I was as scared as…read moreany new driver could be. Paul helped me from day 1 where we didn't even use the gas pedal, just coasting, to my driver's license exam. I did pass on my first try! He gave tips and tricks that would help for the exam as well as driving in real life. He was firm/assertive when needed but I also felt safe and comfortable as a terrified driver. He made me step outside of my comfort zone. He loaned me his sunglasses when I couldn't see. Because of Paul's help, I am able to work jobs that involve driving. I can now drive giant diesel trucks and haul trailers for work. Yesterday I drove 420 miles in one day. While I will never be a carefree driver, I attribute my driving success to Paul and First Pass Driving. I am eternally grateful for his help.

He was very accommodating in getting me as much practice I needed before my road test which helped me to build up my confidence. He tailors every lesson according to the students' necessity. I definitely recommend him Paul as a driving instructor.

I picked Alamo Driving School based on its Yelp reviews. I didn't need too much tutoring, just a…read morebrief explanation of rules in MN and what to pay attention to during the road test. I give 1 star to their office staff and responsiveness and 5 star to my instructor, Connie. I bought my first class online and called them to schedule. They told me they'd call me back and no one did. I called the next day and got the same response, again no one called me. I went to their office 2 days later and they told me they were on holiday as a reason why nobody returned my calls. If I had been told that they'd be out of office and I had to wait a couple of days, that'd be fine. But they kept telling me they'd return my calls and never did. Similar thing happened with scheduling the road test as well. I called, either no one answered or I was told I will be called back. I had to send a nasty message to finally receive a call and get my test scheduled. On the other hand, my instructor Connie was awesome. She was encouraging and always explaining what to pay attention to during driving. On the exam site, she went over a couple of things we should be careful about. I got my license after the exam. In terms of learning how to drive, it's a good place, if you want to deal with the office staff.

I had taken driving classes before in CA and I thought those were good- but I still failed the…read moredriving test. I was pretty nervous to start driving again, but took a chance with Alamo. Mohammed is awesome at figuring out how confident a driver is. He modifies his classes depending on your learning curve and is a perfectionist. He made me practice my parking (90 degree and parallel) over and over and over yet again until I felt confident maneuvering the car without guidance. The moment he feels that you are gaining confidence, he throws curve balls at you so that he can test how nervous you get on the road, and how you handle different situations. I took the 10 hour package w /road test and felt I gained a lot from each driving session with him. He is a good teacher and knows how to get through to his students.

On the day of my appointment (9:00) no one showed up, it was snowing so I though, maybe they are late. I waited until 9:30 when the office opened and said "I had an appointment and no one is here yet, just wanted to check in". The women on the phone had a very rude tone and said. "Well your payment didn't go through so we weren't going to send someone with our payment. We called you and your husband and left you both voice messages." I let her know that I didn't have any missed calls or voice messages and that my husband did have a missed call from them but no voice message. She said "well I know there were messages because I personally left them, so we weren't going to send anyone over. We gave you until yesterday to call us back, and because your payment didn't go through, we aren't going to schedule anything with you" I responded saying,"I can see why you would think I wasn't interested if you said you called and left messages and didn't hear from me, however, no messages were left so I had no idea you still needed payment or what you cancelled my appointment". [I was trying to be understanding, while still being confused about these so called message]. I continued and asked if we can move forward with scheduling something in the future. She said "Well you would need to pay the missed appointment and pay for a new appointment and because your card didn't go through, I REALLY doubt you would want to do that". I said, "I was willing to pay for both appointments but because your tone was rude and condescending and the customer service your providing me is uncalled for" I added "when I called and scheduled my first appointment, the man I spoke with was wonderful" then she said, "yeah, he called and left the message with your husband" so I responded "BUT you said you personally left both messages". She continued to be rude to me and speaking to me as if I didn't have the funds to pay them so how could I possible be interested in them. Midway, do yourself a favor and get a new "office manager"! Who by the way when asked for her name she said it was "office manager" and when asked to speak to her supervisor she continue to say that she was "the office manager". She is loosing you business.

I have a lot to say about this driving school and the instructor was absolutely unprofessional…read more It's seem like a scam to me and I was really skeptical on my first lesson never again. Here are the unprofessional habits I noticed car was filled with things like medicine cups the bag of his car was was also filled with his personal belongings. Another thing he is very unhygienic nails were dirty breath smells like cigarettes and his teeth were so dirty and I find that really disgusting. His whole appearance just says alot about his character. I don't even want to mention how the driving lesson was he was putting way too much pressure and force on me and that was my first time behind the wheel he was holding my hands and hitting it on the steering wheel if I make a mistake or don't know what to do on the road it was an absolute mess he is not a good instructor abd he claims he has been doing that for 30 years, 30 years of unprofessional and a dirty finger nails with a dirty car that smells like cigarettes

From 1:50PM we started the session, him holding handle all the time which doesn't help students at all how to drive as he just puts pedal turns wheel by himself for no reason. He gives good advice, but when he receives a call, he makes it park for like another 10 mins, and ends right at 3:00PM. All I learned was how to move handle and didn't learn anything beyond that. Then when we are coming back, he asks if I want to take $400 package, like really? Avoid this driving school at any cost, if you seriously don't want to waste money.
