I booked a lesson with Berkeley Driving School after doing very little research, which somehow…read moreworked out for me. Signing up was easy and all online, and the website actually explains things clearly. I worked with Donald and he was the best. I'm an anxious almost 40 year old who had never had a license, and he never made me feel weird about that. He was always on time, very calm, and just a genuinely kind person. I had a few lessons with him and it was 100% worth it. I have a lot of driving anxiety and test anxiety, and he gave feedback in a way that didn't make me feel worse. Driving started to feel doable, which I did not expect tbh! I hadn't taken a driving test in over 20 years, but I did it! I passed! I have a driver's license now!! I spent years renewing my permit and trying to build confidence but it wasn't happening. Especially because practicing with a spouse or family member is... difficult (iykyk). But this was completely different. My driving was better than I thought, and I actually got comfortable behind the wheel. I really can't thank Donald enough. This genuinely changed my life, which feels dramatic but is also true.

Daughter passed her behind-the-wheel test, in large part due to the tips and pointers provided by Amber Rose. Thank you! Also, kudos to Berkeley Driving School as the sign-up and appointment experience were pretty straightforward, and also, belated thank you for helping my son pass his behind-the-wheel test a few years ago.

Like everyone else when you have decided to take the next step into chasing your dream career in…read moretrucking the search in CDL schools begins . First I did my online research, The Bay Area has a couple of options but the reviews from people's personal experiences weren't the best. (It's preferable to not mention those schools.) On the other hand I personally got informed about a instructor by the name of Bladimir. This close friend told me he was his instructor from 10+ yrs ago and the Owner/Instructor of "SchoolOfTrucking", a one man show. I sent him a message and he personally gave me a call back. My overall experience with School of Trucking was spectacular. Bladimir brings a good spirit every morning with motivational vibes. Not only that but he is very knowledgeable and I picked up on how patient he was with each and every one of us. As a graduate from "SchoolOfTrucking", I recommend anyone who is interested in getting their Commercial driver's license to give him a call and take the time to meet him. There won't be any second thoughts about going elsewhere. A thought to keep in mind when choosing the right school for yourself is the more students you have in one class the less attention there will be for each and every one of you. Don't make the wrong decision... choose School Of Trucking with Bladimir "The Teacher Of Life" Como todos los demás, cuando decides dar el siguiente paso en la búsqueda de tu carrera soñada en el transporte por carretera, comienza la búsqueda de escuelas de CDL. Primero hice mi investigación en línea, el Área de la Bahía tiene un par de opciones, pero las reseñas basadas en experiencias personales no eran las mejores. (Es preferible no mencionar esas escuelas.) Por otro lado, me informé personalmente sobre un instructor llamado Bladimir. Un amigo cercano me dijo que él había sido su instructor hace más de 10 años y que es el propietario/instructor de "SchoolOfTrucking", Le envié un mensaje y él mismo me devolvió la llamada. Mi experiencia general con School of Trucking fue espectacular. Bladimir aporta un buen espíritu cada mañana con vibras motivacionales. No solo eso, sino que es muy conocedor del tema y noté lo paciente que era con cada uno de nosotros. Como graduado de "SchoolOfTrucking", recomiendo a cualquiera que esté interesado en obtener su licencia de conducir comercial que lo llame y se tome el tiempo de conocerlo. No habrá dudas sobre ir a otro lugar. Un pensamiento a tener en cuenta al elegir la escuela adecuada para ti es que mientras más estudiantes haya en una clase, menos atención recibirá cada uno de ustedes. No tomes la decisión equivocada... elige School Of Trucking con Bladimir "El Maestro de la Vida".

In a meeting I was with one of the instructors and I was told that they were committed to complete success, as the business owner promised. I asked them to sign for me that they were committed to success as they said... Unfortunately, they are not willing to commit to this in writing. So I understood that if I don't pass the course... then I have to pay again. It seems to me that this is just a trick... and the matter is not serious, so I decided to go to a free course from Goodwill... so it will take more time and there they work with you until you pass the course... and for free (at the expense of the state)
