If you're looking for a driving school, look no further than Cedeno! I genuinely cannot say enough…read morewonderful things about my experience with this family-owned business. I actually started my driving journey at another school, but eventually decided to explore other options. After doing some research on Yelp, I came across Cedeno, and I'm so glad I did! Not only were their prices more reasonable, but I also appreciated that the school was located in a quieter, less congested area. As someone learning to drive for the very first time, the thought of navigating busy NYC streets was intimidating enough, so the location was a huge selling point for me. From the very beginning, everyone at Cedeno was incredibly welcoming, professional, kind, and accommodating. All of the instructors I worked with were wonderful, but about halfway through my lessons, I started working with Fabian, and that's when I knew I'd found my instructor! Fabian is truly a gem. He's patient, kind, thorough, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He takes the time to explain things clearly, pays attention to the little details, and genuinely wants his students to succeed. And believe me, his patience was PUT TO THE TEST! I took quite a few lessons. Okay, probably more than the average person! But I was determined to pass my road test on the first try, and I wanted to feel completely confident behind the wheel before taking that next step. Fabian never made me feel rushed, discouraged, or embarrassed about needing additional practice. Instead, he continued to work with me, patiently correcting my mistakes, building my confidence, and making sure I was fully prepared. And guess what? I PASSED MY ROAD TEST ON THE VERY FIRST TRY! I truly couldn't have done it without Fabian. He even accompanied me to my road test, and having him there was incredibly reassuring. After spending so much time learning from him, it meant a lot to have that familiar, supportive presence there on such an important day. Beyond the actual driving lessons, the entire experience with Cedeno was fantastic. I had my fair share of scheduling changes, and the team was always gracious, responsive, and accommodating. They consistently communicated my lesson schedules, helped me navigate changes, and made the entire process feel organized and stress-free. What makes Cedeno especially wonderful is that it's a genuine family-owned and family-operated business. Even the instructor who teaches the five-hour class is part of the family! You can tell that everyone takes pride in what they do and genuinely cares about the people who walk through their doors. There's a warmth and personal touch here that you don't always find with other businesses. Whether you're a teenager learning to drive for the first time or an adult who's finally decided it's time to get behind the wheel (like me!), I cannot recommend Cedeno enough. Learning to drive as an adult can be intimidating, but having the right people teaching and encouraging you makes all the difference. To Fabian and the entire Cedeno family, THANK YOU! Thank you for your patience, professionalism, kindness, flexibility, and encouragement. I'm officially a licensed driver, and I couldn't be more grateful! 10/10 experience. Five stars aren't enough!

Absolutely incredible experience from start to finish! I am truly beyond grateful because I was…read moreable to pass my driving test thanks to them. I honestly couldn't have done it without their guidance, support, and patience throughout the whole process. From day one, everything was clear, structured, and easy to follow. They guide you step by step and make learning how to drive much less stressful, even if you are a complete beginner. The instructors (Jorge, Gerardo y Luis) are outstanding: very patient, professional, and they have a teaching style that immediately builds your confidence. They correct you calmly, explain everything as many times as needed, and truly make sure you learn properly. One thing that really impressed me, and that is not easy to find, is that they offer different packages, and some of them even include the car for the driving test. On top of that, the exam is taken in a calm, low-traffic area, which really helps reduce stress and makes it much easier to perform well. Honestly, deals like this are very rare to find. Thanks to them, I felt fully prepared, calm, and confident on exam day. I knew exactly what to expect and how to handle every situation. I am extremely grateful for their support and high-quality service. They completely exceeded my expectations. I 100% recommend them to anyone who wants to learn how to drive and pass their test with confidence. ¡Experiencia absolutamente increíble de principio a fin! Estoy realmente muy agradecida porque gracias a ellos pasé mi examen de conducción. Honestamente, no podría haberlo logrado sin su apoyo, guía y paciencia durante todo el proceso. Desde el primer día todo fue súper claro, organizado y fácil de seguir. Te explican paso a paso y hacen que aprender a conducir sea mucho menos estresante, incluso si empiezas desde cero. Los instructores (Jorge, Gerardo y Luis, etc) son excelentes: muy pacientes, profesionales y con una forma de enseñar que te da confianza desde el inicio. Corrigen con calma, explican todo las veces que sea necesario y realmente se aseguran de que aprendas bien. Algo que me pareció increíble y que no es fácil de encontrar es que tienen varios paquetes muy completos, y algunos incluso incluyen el carro para ir a presentar el examen. Además, el examen se realiza en una zona tranquila, lo que ayuda muchísimo a reducir los nervios y aumenta las posibilidades de hacerlo bien. De verdad, este tipo de "deal" no se encuentra fácilmente. Gracias a ellos me sentí preparada, segura y tranquila el día del examen. Sabía exactamente qué esperar y cómo manejar cada situación. Estoy muy agradecida por todo el apoyo y la calidad del servicio. Superaron completamente mis expectativas. Los recomiendo 100% a cualquiera que quiera aprender a conducir y pasar su examen con confianza.

From my very first lesson, he made me feel super comfortable and calm behind the wheel.

Thanks to him, I've become way more confident and comfortable driving than I ever thought I'd be.

They took me right away, the front desk people ( two women ) were extremely friendly. Explained everything clearly all with a smile on this gloomy day. We started the class upstairs and the instructor Kat, light skin, grew hair, was such a great teacher! She was extremely funny and witty. My last experience in a five hour class was horrible I fell asleep, the teacher only put on a video , didn't speak and didn't give us any paper or a pen to take notes. However Kat had us all prepared. She encouraged participation, you can tell she has a genuine love for safety. And as a new driver I appreciated that. It kept me attentive and actually wanting to learn. This school is really great, I hate the area but I would definitely come back for anything else I need. I paid for the fast road test so I'm going to be practicing all week. As Kat says "observation is key!" Thanks again!!

The people who work in the office are very nice and competent regarding scheduling and the DMV. I…read morerequested a driver and car for my road test. I was told to arrive to their office an hour before my test at Starrett. However, the driver didn't arrive to their office until 20 minutes before the test, and then he had to get breakfast, which wasted more time. I was instructed to drive a block away from the test, and was told, "hurry up" to get there in time. We arrived to the test with a couple minutes to spare, and needless to say, I was not in a calm mood. Image tells you, on the parallel park, to put your right hand behind the front passenger headrest as you reverse. DRIVING WITH ONE HAND on the road test is an automatic fail for many examiners. Following Image's instructions, I failed at Starrett and Seaview. The examiners literally hit the passenger side brake of the driving school car as I was backing up to attempt my parallel. I was done before I barely began thanks to Image's instructions. I took my third road test on Staten Island, and used a Staten Island driving school for my car and driver. I was told to keep both hands on the wheel at all times during the test. I nailed my parallel park and passed. My test literally was less than five minutes, close to four. My advice to anyone scheduling a road test in Brooklyn: Avoid Starrett, Coney Island, and Red Hook. Seaview is arguably the easiest test site in NYC. Just know there are wide streets and your three point turn cannot become a near U-turn.

My driving instructor, Frank Dao, is hands down the best instructor I have ever had. After going through multiple instructors at another driving school who never took the time to explain my weaknesses or how to improve, working with Frank was a game changer. He clearly explains mistakes, makes sure you understand how to correct them, and gives detailed, practical tips for everything, from mastering turns to parallel parking. Thanks to Gold Success and Frank's incredible instruction, I passed my road test, and I am truly grateful. I couldn't recommend them more!

Unfortunately, my experience with this driving school was extremely disappointing and ended up…read morebeing a waste of both time and money. I did receive a refund for my unused portions of the package I paid for. I enrolled as a complete beginner and made that very clear from the start. Instead of receiving patient instruction, I experienced an instructor (Michael) who became frustrated with beginner mistakes and raised his voice during lessons. It was also extremely fast paced for a 20 lesson full package deal. On my third day I was being taught a 3 point turn and parallel parking when I was not comfortable turning onto roads and being centered on roads. There were also communication and scheduling issues. On one occasion, I arrived for what I believed was my scheduled lesson, only to find out the time had been changed without any phone call, email, or text notification. Despite the instructor being available, I spent approximately 40 minutes sitting in the vehicle while he stopped at McDonald's and handled personal matters rather than conducting the lesson. During multiple lessons, the instructor took lengthy personal phone calls while I was in the car, including highly personal conversations that contained inappropriate language. As a student learning to drive for the first time, I expected my instructor's full attention and professionalism, not distractions and personal matters. What ultimately made me decide to leave was being told after only three lessons that my remaining lessons and road test had been canceled because I was allegedly "too nervous." I had attended every lesson, was eager to learn, and had only just begun driving. Although I was offered another instructor, by that point I had lost confidence in the school's professionalism and chose to seek instruction elsewhere. Additionally, while waiting for one of my lessons, I overheard another student discussing a negative experience he had with an instructor named Frank. Under normal circumstances I would not place much weight on another student's experience alone. However, after everything I had personally experienced, hearing another student express similar frustrations further reduced my confidence in the school as a whole. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this driving school.
