Delores in the office is super organized and responsive and leads you through the entire process patiently. The drivers are responsive and thorough. The range of services they offer are based on your needs. My three boys went through their program and passed on their first attempt and I felt so much confidence after their experience with New Life Driving School. Word of advice: get on their list for the initial 6 hours driving early! They are very busy because they are good! And also, take advantage of their day of the test offer of a 30 minute review of the course and bringing your child through the DMV process. Makes life for YOU a whole lot easier!

The instructors are always on time and you start driving from the second they come pick you up at your door. The majority of the instructors are incredibly patient, friendly and helpful. I recommend working with a couple and deciding who you like working with and request them going forward. If you are looking for a reliable and consistent driving school in Bergen county, you've found it! Definitely give them a shot.

Not sure why there aren't more reviews here. Just a shout out to Ahmed and Dream Driving school…read more Decided to give my daughter a 6 hour pack of driving lessons. She was very anxious about getting behind the wheel, but gained some good confidence after the lessons. Ahmed was very flexible and punctual to every appointment. To give my daughter some extra confidence before her road test (also wanted to maintain my blood pressure), purchased another 6 hours along with the road test package. It was worth every penny and everything went smoothly. Perfect marks on the road test. Already have and will continue to refer this school and Ahmed to my friends and family. Thank you!!

Gave me Fred, who was very grumpy and grabby with the wheel during my review before road test (probably because he suddenly had to take all of my previous instructor's students). He asked me to turn down the mirror towards the rear wheel during practice but when I turned it back to face the road while driving towards to MVC exam, he gave me a horrible attitude and for some reason was upset that I put the mirror back so I can drive safely. Thank you for heightening my anxiety right before the exam. Also gave a sour attitude afterwards when he drove us back from the exam, sped and cut off other cars with no blinkers on. Who is supposed to learn at a place like this? Stay away.

They don't respond to the first two, and the phone is 50/50 you'll get an answering machine or an actual person. I was advised to complete a website form again, and then received no response. After calling, I finally got an instructor's phone number and was advised to text them. Now, I understand that I can't expect someone to be available 24/7 to answer a text, but after three days of no response after day one, I gave up and tried another driving school, where I was able to IMMEDIATELY reach someone by phone and schedule their services. You must be extremely persistent if you want to go to this driving school. I should have tried another driving school right away, honestly.

Once I finally completed the packet and submitted everything including my child's personal info and a check, I never heard from them again. I haven't even received a confirmation that they received my documents and it has been over two weeks. I've been emailing them and have received no response. I've been calling for two days and no one answers, yet their voicemail message says they are fully staffed and someone is always in the office. You can't even leave a voicemail because it's been full. I don't know what type of games they are playing, but at this point I don't want to deal with them and just want my stuff back. Customer service is nonexistent at this place.

My instructors were Jose, Yasmine & Yonel. Don't waste your time here. Daniel is friendly and helpful and the only reason this place gets a star. They have 2 programs to chose from. For 2000$ you can read, watch practice videos & take practice tests on your own. You can also do this for free if you use your handbook and the internet. The study sheet and video had inconsistencies from the handbook. I memorized the video and then was told, don't use the wording from the video... One of the instructors seemed to have hated me since he met me and the few times I had him in class, it was unbearable. All he did was yell at me. The other 2 instructors were friendly. While they were teaching me, they would tell me when to turn & how much but I never learned why. I would always ask, I don't understand, I need to be able to understand, telling me what to do without me being able to recognize why is not helping. I think that comment was lost in translation because I never learned how to do some of the basic things. Unemployment paid for my training. The money & time was completely wasted. I think I got 20 hours in the truck. For some reason they schedule my first attempt at the test without having taken all the hours. They set you up to fail and I did. I scheduled another test but didn't get to practice consistently at all. I progressed but didn't pass completely. The school is busy so scheduling was a problem plus the delays at the DMV made it impossible. My test receipt expired so I had to pay that a second time and now my permit is expiring and I am out of practice hours. It makes no sense to me whatsoever that they didn't allow me to take all my hours if not more before sending me to take the test. I believe they try to get you to take the test hoping you will pass so they don't have to give you all the hours that were paid for. During my classes, the instructors were usually on their phone and not helping me. Their methods of teaching are ineffective. At this point, I think I only need a couple more hours of practice, it's all about consistency. Taking 2 hours of classes every couple weeks will never give you the skills needed. The trucks were in terrible shape. The shifter was so worn that you had to place it in the absolute correct spot. The brakes were constantly unresponsive or too sensitive. During my test, as I was going through the safety check, the truck was obviously not safe. I may have said "the air pressure is good between 80-120", but the air pressure was at 150 & it did lose more than 4lbs of pressure in a minute. It also doesn't seem professional for my time to be used maintaining the truck. Perhaps that time would have made a difference. I have to schedule some more hours and a new road test but I have to pay out of pocket. I will be going somewhere else. The question you need to ask yourself is; " is it worth spending the money to drive a truck with someone sitting next to you", this place should be your last choice.
