It feels as though they go out of their way to ensure that teenagers and their parents struggle unnecessarily. Communication is virtually nonexistent, and when you do get through, the tone is dismissive and arrogant, as if asking a simple question about scheduling or requirements is an outrageous imposition. Their class sign-up system is confusing and poorly managed, with no guidance offered to help navigate it. Every interaction leaves you with the distinct impression that they take pride in being as unaccommodating as possible. My daughter's peers, who attended other driving schools, had smooth and straightforward experiences. By contrast, every step with this school has been an exercise in frustration. One Star - strictly for the organization, communication, and office staff. The actual driving instructors were wonderful. Parents, save yourself the headache and choose literally any other school. This one is a nightmare wrapped in arrogance.

She did the virtual classes when she was 15 and 9 months and felt that was very easy to do and got her permit at 16. We also did the driving lessons, which they set up all 10 lessons up front and if I had an issue with a lesson and needed to reschedule, I emailed to which they assigned another day for her. They picked up at school and dropped off at home. We also signed up for the sponsor to go with her for her license road test. Would go through them again for my other child when he is going to start the process of driving. A++++

I took 10 driving lessons with Maxim at Ashland Driving School. Before that, I had only been behind…read morethe wheel a couple of times, but I didn't really know how to drive and felt very unsure of myself. Maxim was incredibly helpful--he explained everything clearly, showed me where and how I should behave on the road, and answered all of my questions. The platform they use is very convenient--it shows exactly when and at what time your lessons are scheduled. You can choose from different packages and lesson plans, and there are reminders sent 2-3 times before each lesson, which is super helpful. After completing the first 10 lessons, I took my driving test but unfortunately didn't pass because I made the same mistake I had been making during the lessons. I then decided to take another 10 lessons, and after just 8 lessons, I went for my test again--and this time, I passed with flying colors, making no mistakes at all! I now feel much more confident behind the wheel. I'm really grateful to Maxim for helping me learn how to drive and, more importantly, for eliminating my fear of driving. I now have a strong desire to drive and gain more experience on the road! I'm even planning to take a highway lesson to further build my skills and confidence. I highly recommend Ashland Driving School! You won't regret it--you'll love it!

Best Driving School in the area. Highly recommend!…read more Appreciated the technical driving maneuver videos and the instructors who worked with my kid. Shout out to Arsenio who built up my daughter's confidence. Anna Sab is great-straight shooter. Her husband was at the RMV for road test day. Communication between CS and parents was great. Attend any zoom meetings and watch videos as a parent. Getting instructor hour appointments was sometimes tricky in beginning-but tell your kid not to give up and keep trying to sign up for instructor hours when it's sign up time or get on waiting list for cancellations. Highly recommend paying the extra $ if you can afford it to have CS Driving School sponsor the road test and use their driving instruction cars. Made things much easier and honestly, it was better for me not to be the sponsor in the backseat of the road test car. IMO parents must practice driving with their kid as much as possible-above and beyond the required parent supervision hours. As hard, scary and frustrating as it can be! I spent hours at night practicing parallel parking with my kid the "CS Driving School way" (also 50 ft back up, parking on a hill maneuvers, and 3 point turns). My kid passed the road test because of her commitment to learning to drive, CS Driving School instructors, and the practice driving hours she did with me. Thank you CS Driving School for preparing my kid to drive on the very busy streets of the Watertown area, where adults with drivers licenses don't adhere to basic traffic rules & laws, buses and Amazon trucks drive like no one else is on the road, bicyclists don't adhere to rules of the road, and very few drivers in MA seems to USE THEIR BLINKER ANYMORE!

I realized the faults in my life just by being in her presence and now every single one of my problems has faded away and my life is 100% perfect. When I first met her she didn't say anything, she didn't have to because just by being in the same zoom call as her all of the answers to the universe were reviled to me and I was granted eternal enlightenment. Of course my driving is now perfect due to her teachings, and every student shes ever taught has known the future of their trip and any faults or dangers that could come and planed accordingly. Not a single one of her students has even so much as hit a curb, not because they are good at driving but because they would rather die then harm such a perfect angel as Danielle Smith. Anyone who doesn't like this woman is an ugly, unfunny, uncreative, STUPID fool. I don't just drive anymore, I literally learned how to fly. So yeah, best teacher ever, five stars. She also smells like roses and has nice hair and teeth.
