    Ashland Driving School - Proof that I pass the road test

    I signed up my daughter for the bundle for classes and driving lessons and everything was seamless…read morethroughout the process. 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!

    I am an adult driver (40+) who has always lived in the city and never driven prior to this school…read more I enrolled in the beginner private lesson package which I found from googling adult driving school reviews. I was initially nervous when I saw that multiple instructors would be working with me. After I emailed them with my worry, they called very quickly to explain the benefit of learning from different instructors, something that ultimately helped me feel prepared for the road test since you never know which examiner you'll get. Every instructor I drove with was patient, professional, and clearly invested in both my safety and my success. As an adult learning to drive in this city, I can't recommend this school highly enough.

    Inconsistent, Unprofessional, and Ultimately a Waste of Time & Money…read more I am writing this review on behalf of my father, a retired military Veteran from India, who just completed 7 lessons with Brookline Driving School. Unfortunately, his experience was overwhelmingly disappointing and I would strongly advise you to look elsewhere. Our primary issue was the complete lack of consistency between instructors. He had at least three different teachers, primarily switching between Ervin and Vitaly. While Ervin was patient and seemed to genuinely enjoy teaching, the same cannot be said for his counterpart. Vitaly was, frankly, obnoxious. He lacked basic respect for his students, was often loud and visibly frustrated, creating an environment where my father felt intimidated and unable to ask questions. If you don't have the patience for this job, why are you in it? To make matters worse, he made uncalled-for and stereotypical "jokes" about Indians being bad drivers, which was completely unprofessional and offensive. The biggest practical problem arose from this inconsistency. Ervin and Vitaly taught completely different techniques for parallel parking. One would say to do it one way, and the next lesson, the other would contradict it. This constant change in instruction confused my father daily and shattered his confidence. The culmination of this failure was on his road test. He failed specifically because of the parallel parking maneuver. The conflicting advice from his own instructors left him unsure of the correct method, leading to a critical error. I hold Brookline Driving School 100% responsible for this. We are cutting our losses and heeding our neighbors' recommendation to try Waltham Driving School instead. Save your time, your money, and your sanity--go somewhere else. This school is unorganized and employs instructors who are not aligned, with at least one who lacks the basic demeanor required to teach.

    ENGLISH: Nathalia, an attendant, shouted at me on the phone…read moreand hung up on me when I asked why she had shouted at me. So I reported it to the BBB, and I'm leaving my review so everyone knows that they are extremely disrespectful to their customers. PORTUGUESE: Nathalia atendente, gritou comigo no telefone e desligou na minha cara quando questionei porque ela havia gritado comigo. Entao reportei pro BBB, e estou deixando meu review para todos saberem que eles sao extremamente desrespeitosos com os clientes.

When I paid the receptionist I assumed I…read morewould come back to the place of business for my practice but I got a phone call the morning of while waiting 15 minutes after nine. My appointment was at 9:00am. Following the practice I got a call from the receptionist I spoke to before in person, reminding me I had a road test TOMORROW. The day I got the call was Thursday so I show up Friday morning 8:00am. While waiting a Brazilian woman walks past asking my name I tell her and tell her why I'm there while she rudely replies we don't have road test on Friday YOU HAVE practice today , so I tell her I was told to be here yesterday for the following day and she replied rude again that Friday is practice and road tests are on saturdays and walks away. Just disorganized and ignorant assuming I was there by my own stupidity and continuing to be aggressively rude about it ,after I explained myself and walking away with her nose up.
