When I first contacted A-Z for my son's driving lessons, Erin was very helpful and answered all my…read morequestions and helped get my son set up for 3 lessons (6 hours). His first lesson was with Natalie. She was great. He was very nervous and she helped ease his nerves. After the lesson, she had wrote down the areas he needed to focus on. She went over it with both my son and me. He also got a checklist to prepare for the driving test. His next two lessons were with Steve, who was very professional and got him on the freeway and helped him with preparing for the exam including backing up. A few months later, we got two more lessons (4 hours). Erin again was a great help in helping schedule. He had another lesson with Steve. He also had another instructor Katie, also professional and helped him with parking and other areas he requested more practice with. My son passed his driving exam today on the first try. The foundations provided to him definitely helped. I've recommended A-Z to other parents looking for lessons.

I highly recommend Micaela to anyone looking for a driving instructor!…read more When I started taking lessons with her, I was basically returning to driving after a 20-year break -- and on top of that, I had to learn how to drive confidently and safely in the U.S. Micaela made the whole process so much easier than I expected. She is incredibly patient, calm, supportive, and very easy to feel comfortable with. She explained things in a way that finally made sense to me and taught me skills that other instructors had not been able to teach me. Parallel parking is a perfect example -- Micaela showed me a simple technique, and in a surprisingly short time, I was able to do it confidently on my own. Another huge advantage is that Micaela speaks Russian in addition to English and Spanish. For Russian-speaking students who are new to driving in the U.S., this can be especially helpful. It didn't take us long to get me comfortable behind the wheel and prepared for driving in America after such a long break. I'm truly grateful to Micaela for her patience, encouragement, and professionalism. If you're nervous about driving, haven't driven in years, or are new to the U.S., I would absolutely recommend taking lessons with Micaela. She is a wonderful instructor!

From the initial lesson, Christin was communicative, patient, and very effective with getting our daughter to learn the best practices and tools to start driving.

We'd highly recommend Christin!

I highly recommend Frank's Driving School to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and…read moreknowledgeable driving instructor. As a parent, Frank made the entire process incredibly easy. Scheduling lessons was simple and flexible, and he even picked up and dropped off my son, which made a huge difference with our busy schedule. Most importantly, Frank emphasized safe, responsible, and legal driving habits from day one. He didn't just teach my son how to pass the driving test--he taught him how to become a confident, defensive, and responsible driver. Frank also helped guide us through the DMV process, making sure my son was prepared, scheduled his appointment efficiently, and earned his driver's license quickly and without stress. Throughout the entire experience, Frank was professional, patient, organized, and an excellent communicator. If you're looking for a driving school in the San Jose, Campbell, Los Altos, Mountain View, or surrounding areas, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Frank's Driving School. It was an outstanding experience from start to finish.

I passed my driving test in first attempt with only 4 errors! Thank you Tim!…read more I had three private lessons with Tim, and the experience was completely different from other driving classes I'd taken. In the past, I always ended up feeling nervous -- but Tim explained everything calmly, patiently answered my questions, and never got frustrated when I made mistakes. I even drove on the freeway during my very first lesson with him, something I never felt confident enough to do with instructors at other schools. I highly recommend Frank's Driving School and Tim as an instructor!

She is very professional in her work and always made sure to demonstrate or explain anything where I needed more clarity. A few other things I really liked were her patience and calm attitude during lessons, which is especially important for beginners.

Every lesson felt productive and informative, and I got many opportunities to handle different road situations, which made me feel much more confident behind the wheel.

My friends recommended Sam's for my behind the wheels preparation…read more First thing I have to mention is their commitment, and the communication. Sam came right to my office on time to pick me up. She took good time and patience to explain about the rules and teach the nuances of the driving. She is honest with the comments which will aid us to correct the mistakes on time. They are very knowledgible on the driving courses across many locations in the Bay Area. They can take you right to the drive test areas and make you comfortable and feel prepared to take the Behind the Wheel test. I would certainly recommend Sam's to any of friends who are learning driving/ taking test. All the Best !!!

I never felt judged or embarrassed to be learning as an adult. I ended up doing three regular lessons and a DMV test practice lesson to get comfortable around the Santa Clara DMV where I later took my driver's test. And then, I passed on my first try! I once thought I would never be able to drive comfortably with all my anxieties, so I am forever grateful to Carrie for providing the encouragement and guidance I desperately needed. Now, thanks to her, I look forward to driving. She really was more than just an instructor; she was real and so personable from the very first lesson. The two hours always felt so short because I was so comfortable with her, when before I used to dread driving. Truly, if you want someone who will guide/teach you effectively and crack jokes with you too, Carrie's got you. Again, I could not see myself passing this test on the first try without all the support Carrie and the Bay Area Driving Academy have provided me. (8/31/26)
