Like some other reviewers, I am also in my 30s. I never learned to drive due to living in big cities with public transportation. Moving to LA, that had to change! I was super nervous and didn't have much confidence at first, but with Angel's patience I always felt reassured and safe. I even was able to learn to parallel park and did a few classes where I got on the highway! Highly recommend, especially if you are a late bloomer driver like myself. Thank you Angel and thank you Karin's Driving School! Worth every penny.

Angel, my instructor, always promptly arrived 5+ minutes earlier than the scheduled time, and was extremely professional, encouraging and helpful. Under his instruction, I went from being extremely anxious to ready to drive on freeways and LA streets and take my exam. My actual DMV driving exam was extremely traumatic but I still passed the first time, and everything Angel reviewed with me was highly applicable. Thank you so much to Angel for being such an amazing and empathetic instructor, and I would highly recommend checking them out especially since they're a bit cheaper than the other driving schools in the West LA area!

Our instructor for both sessions was Ms Alvina my son said, she was patient and instructed him well, she had my son get on the freeway on the first day, I was impressed. She was also early to pick up my son, and gave him an extra 30 minutes after each time, that's another of the many reasons why I was moved to do this YELP. I appreciate it, it shows the instructors dedication. Thank you Ms Alvina, Alex learned alot from you in just 2 sessions. I appreciate you greatly. I definitely recommend this school for young first time teenage drivers. Almost forgot to mention the price was GREAT very reasonable and affordable. Thank you again EZ driving school, see you soon for Alex driving test. I will be booking you for that too.

After reaching out to six different driving schools in LA and being quoted over $200+ for just a…read more2-hour driving lesson, I FINALLY found 1st Choice Driving School. From the minute I spoke to someone over the phone, they were so friendly, and prompt and scheduled a driving lesson for the next day at the most affordable price. Great first impression already! I'm a driver who already has my license but needed a refresher before buying a car and driving in LA. Chris was my driver for the day and I can't sing his praises enough. He was friendly and offered gentle guidance and correction. As someone who previously struggled with anxiety while driving, Chris created such a calm environment. I walked away feeling so much more confident in my driving abilities after not driving for such a long time. If you're like me, and your first "driving instructor" was an anxious parent who might've yelled, I recommend driving with Chris lol. It's the refreshing friendliness you need! I'll definitely recommend him and 1st Choice Driving School again. Thank you :)

They even reviewed the DMV location and potential routes for the test with him. He passed his test last week with flying colors! Both instructors were personable and professional with us. I would recommend this driving school to any teenager. The ONLY reason I did not give 5 stars is the quality of the automobiles used. The cars are very outdated and wheel alignment needs attention. That said, if you can handle their cars, you can handle anything!

They were late the 1st time due to traffic but they still completed his full session. I was nervous because it was his 1st lesson and it was in the evening and with this time change it was almost dark but I guess it's a good thing he got some practice in the dark. I will definitely use them for my youngest son who will need training soon. I do wish they offered a sibling discount.

First, they have the option to cancel on me anytime, after my son was waiting for them. We began the lessons, and the instructor, Sabino, asked me if I would prefer to sit in the back to feel comfortable. After I agreed, I only went once, I realized that my son was making significant errors. I made the comments after Sabino had given me permission, and he did not appreciate it. He was very confident in his ability to pass the test, but he failed it just two minutes after getting behind the wheel. I felt that my son needed more sessions, so I contacted the company. Letty attempted to convey the impression that I was not welcome because I was a parent who was concerned about my son's well-being. I informed her that she should not engage in such conduct with me. If the company does not value my business, then I do not need to continue working with them. It is important to choose a business that respects and values its customers and their businesses.

I booked this company for a 2 hour brush up for my behind the wheel test next tuesday…read more I have already have some driving experience on and off but wanted some tips on stuff I may not know or read from the DMV pamphlet. Today we drove around the DMV I will be taking the test on during rush hour. PROS: - Homer was right on time - He gave lots of useful tips/ rules that I overlooked/ did not know - He asked about my goals and we practiced around the DMV. He knew the exact route CONS: - Some parts of the car weren't working. The back camera and the button that adjusted the side view mirrors (not a big deal, I just did it manually) - When I was driving around where the test will be, he got really impatient. He was frustrated and made snappy comments and would say things under his breath when I missed what he said or when I did not get what he said the first time. Apparently I was too cautious. I was overwhelmed during rush hour and all he was telling me while driving that at one point he kind of aggressively said "you should know this- maybe you shouldn't take the test but take another lesson with me". That is why I booked the lesson for stuff I may have missed! He repeated it several times. I did not say anything and then asked if i had someone i can practice with/ car and I said yes. After, he after did say that practicing with anyone will be good. At the end he said that my driving wasn't bad and that I could pass the test. Not sure where the attitude came from then. Good touch up driving school with useful tips, but if you want a more chill and less stressful lesson/s I may consider another option.

I had always been really nervous about getting behind the wheel but Luis was incredibly patient and supportive and he made the lessons enjoyable. He made sure I felt comfortable at every step, which made a huge difference in building my confidence. The staff at the school, including the secretary, were all super nice as well and really flexible with scheduling my lessons, which I appreciated since I have a pretty busy schedule. The pricing was very reasonable, especially for the quality of instruction I received. I passed my driving test on the first try! If you're someone who's been putting off driving because of fear or nerves, I highly recommend Abel's Driving School. They truly made a difference for me, and I'm so grateful !!!

For behind the wheel training, we had Miguel teach both of them, and he was so patient and thoughtful and informative.
