Before we started the test he made sure I was comfortable and made sure I didn't have any question. Nico explained what the test would look like before be began driving. While taking my test he made sure he gave me enough time to turn lanes or make a left turn. I had my last instructor in Lakewood tell me when to turn last minute which caused me to "lose points". Here they definitely make you feel comfortable and they don't judge you when you make a mistake simply kindly explain how you could do better or differently at the end of the test. -Esmeralda E.

She is an excellent instructor and I got over my fears. She explained things clearly and was a calm person to drive with. I felt comfortable with her and learned a lot. After 4 lessons I took the drivers skills test and passed. This was a great experience and recommend Terri as an instructor.

My experience with CDS (Commercial Driving School) in Olympia has been absolutely amazing. Everyone…read moreworking here has been kind, personable, respectful, and patient with me as a student. The Evening Instructor, Dave, has been instrumental in my success as a driver. He has taken me aside and helped me, and other students, every step of the way. Being able to pinpoint areas we need to work on, and how to get out of a tough situation i.e; Backing at an odd angle, being stopped on a hill with traffic directly behind the truck, how to safely downshift, etc. He also stands behind his students as an instructor. He genuinely wants everyone to succeed. Very cool, very funny, awesome guy. The Pre-Trip Instructor, Nicole, has been awesome. When you're handed the Pre-Trip paperwork to study, it can be extremely intimidating. She instantly came up with solutions on how to memorize certain areas in various ways, from simplicity such as highlighting acronyms to using phrases and sayings to help solidify parts of the vehicle in your mind. She has no issue bouncing back and forth between students to make sure everyone is progressing at an appropriate pace. Very smart, very funny, super patient. Even if these two individuals aren't around for whatever reason, there are other people you could use for help as well. I was stuck memorizing an area and the Senior Vice President of the company had no issue giving me the time, helping get an area down. The ladies in the front office are super helpful as well. This company wants to work with you, not throw you on an assembly line, so to speak. 5/5 Would always recommend to anyone interested in acquiring a commercial driver's license.

They will…read morehave you take course over and over again at $250 without any obligation to help you pass...they dont care if you pass. They also do not tend email messages at all and do not return phone calls either but this is just my experience. If car drivers had to go thru this same process no one would be driving on the road. They need to make it a bit easier so that so many people arent on the roads riding without a license and/or permit!

So it's ok for you the customer to spend too much but not them. Clearly they don't care about customer service. They think because they're a gov't entity they can take advantage of you and that's exactly what they do. Don't waste your time, they're just gonna waste yours.

I would highly recommend this Level 2 class to anyone who already has riding experience and is looking to become more proficient off-road.

Warehouse was huge and she did have a great sale. Her items are pretty fuffy and expensive to say the least. I looked at a small wooden jewelry box that would have normally been a maximum of $25 at any antique shop. She wanted $1250 for it. Even when you take 80% off that it is ridiculous. She overcharges for everything. She may have nice products but not many can afford them.
