Like the other reviewer, I am also a California expat. I had to take both tests as well. While I…read moredid not attend classes, I was given access to an app for my tablet that that drove all the information home in a pleasant enough format to not to entirely sick of it. And the information you need to memorize for the written test is vast. There's around 1200 questions, you'll get 30 of them assigned randomly and you can only miss a couple before failing. Barely passed this test, but the app was essential for studying. The real value here came with the behind the wheel training. I've been driving 30+ years already, so I figured I'd have this part in the bag. I was so wrong about that. My instructor, Oli, was an absolute champ and really helped me break some of the US driving habits that don't fly out here. To be clear, there was a zero percent chance that I could have passed this exam without his help. He was patient with my screw-ups and educated me enough to where I'm actually following the proper procedures when I get back into my car. Highly recommended.

As a resident-alien from CA, getting a German drivers license can be a royal pain in the neck. If…read moreone were from Kentucky, all one would need to do would be to exchange their KY license for a German one, but being from CA is a different story. One needs to attend both the classroom and take several hours of behind-the-wheel sessions before attempting to pass both exams. I took my written test (four times) in "English", meaning British English, where the "profile" of a tire (tyre) means the tread, a "level crossing" is a railroad crossing, a "carriageway" is a street, a "motorway" is a freeway, etc. Oh, and one better brush-up on one's math skills as well because there are stopping, passing and acceleration formulas to deal with. Whereas in the US, all one really needs to obtain a drivers license is a pulse, in Germany one must have one's current drivers license "officially translated", take a life-safety course (more math), take an eye test and THEN begin the courses. The staff were very helpful and patient with the time required to obtain all of the pre-course requirements and even drove us to the TUV to take the exam - sometimes repeatedly... My behind-the-wheel instructor, Olli, was a true gem! He gave me all of the tips for passing the test (which I did the first time, with no mistakes) and help make me aware of the many uniquely German traffic situations. After passing both tests, I received a little present from the firm that included a bottle opener! Highly recommended!

Came to this school to prepare for my driving test. The staff was very helpful and informative. I…read morecompleted my CPR course, vision test, and theoretical test through Gote. I passed everything with no problems. The staff for the most part could speak English which helped a lot. I paid 41 euros per hour of driving instruction which I guess is normal for Germany (a bit of a shock coming from the US though). I had an excellent instructor who made sure I passed the driving exam. He was very helpful, made sure I knew exactly what to expect. I am happy to say I passed my test yesterday and am now the proud owner of a German drivers license!! Yeeeee!!! I highly recommend this driving school, they are excellent at what they do, honest, and very helpful.
