I would definitely recommend this company & instructor if you're looking to get driving lessons.

We feel so blessed to have found this independent study program that fits our needs so perfectly…read more My daughter loves Pivot and is thriving academically here. There is great support from the teachers, and everyone is so welcoming and kind, no wonder my daughter no longer suffers from school anxiety like she used to in public school. They help her to reach her full potential, according to her individual needs/special circumstances, and without the unnecessary stress and unhealthy pressure that is common in many schools. So my daughter can finally have caring one-on-one support when needed but they also provide the flexibility that our family needs for her to be able to work virtually. This is her second year here and it is going so well. When I was in middle school and high school, I went to a few different independent/home studies schools. My daughter also attended one in Orange County before we moved to Chico. I did research on the Core program offered in Chico as well before deciding on Pivot. Out of all these independent studies/home schools - Pivot is my favorite by far, they really nailed it, and my daughter is happy! We are so grateful to have found it!

Coastline Academy is the BEST driving school in Chico. They're a national company, but they treat…read moretheir customers as if they're your neighbors. The teachers are local, and really good. So far my son has only had one teacher, Mathew, and my son loves him! He's learned a lot and has even taught me a few things I didn't know, and I've been driving for 37 years! Customer Service is excellent! I spoke with quite a few, but Ashley went above and beyond and I appreciate their kindness and efficiency. After we *both* learned a few things from Matthew I'd say that if you've been driving for a long time, it's a good idea to pick up a California Driving Handbook. Not only were professional driving schools not required back in the 80's and early 90's, but a few laws have changed since then and it's a good idea to freshen up your knowledge of the California road rules, regulations and safety etc. Lessons are expensive no matter what, and they're all about the same price. Coastline tends to be available within a few days, so if you're looking to book a lesson ASAP, they're the ones to call. I'm definitely going to have my daughter use Coastline, and I definitely recommend them to anyone!

It was a great way to allow the children to understand that their art could be uniquely theirs.

Would 100% recommend this Driving School and the instructor David.

Review Ok, so I…read morewaited a week to post this review in order to make sure I was still mad. I am. Don't bother to call this place. I'm an adult that has a significant fear of driving. Their website says they offer adult learning sessions, and specifically mentions adults with fear. When I called, the woman who answered was very snippy. She immediately asked for my age, and when I told her, she said that through the end of the year they were only teaching kids "since they're the only ones who really need it". I understand being busy, but the rudeness was unnecessary. I don't know how the actual driving instruction is, but based on my one interaction with the woman on the phone, I will not be calling them again.

Getting into their schedule might be a little tricky at times, but worth the wait, in my opinion.

I originally called this place because I heard they take Medi-Cal Health and Wellness. I called and…read moreI explained that my son's primary insurance does not cover speech(I had previously used full circle and that is when I became aware of my insurance not covering speech...I paid full circle what they owed as they billed correctly) I heard that they took Medi-Cal Health and Wellness, I was told yes buy only a certain one, they would check his to see...they did and it was the one they took. I was told they would need a referral from my pediatrician, I called my pedtrician and they 1st sent me a referral to full circle, I called them and told them I needed it for Chico speech and Language because as I had told the Dr. my primary does not cover speech for Autism. When I sent my insurance cards over I reminded them again that my son's primary insurance does not cover speech. We had his evaluation September 2019 and started speech weekly October 2019-mid January 2020. Sarah was the person who actually did the speech and she was great with my son. Mid January I was told that they will not see him till they start getting payments. Monica informed me that they never got a authorization from Medi-cal which they needed to be able to bill the services. I was also informed on a later date that they now have authorization but starting in December, so they were going to change the dates of service so they could get paid. I called medi-Cal in June when I was sent a bill for all the services, I was informed that the dates on the primary EOB (which was a denial but had to be billed in order to bill 2ndry) do not match the dates being billed to them. I wrote a letter and left a voice mail telling Chico speech if they were going to change the dates of service they would have to re bill the primary so the dates would match (which is illegal to change dates of service)They did this, and are now billing me again, and trying to get me to pay because they are a small bushiness and "its the right thing to do". I called Paula the owner who left that message on my phone, I did yell at her when she tried to cut me off, when I wasn't done speaking. I told her how I choose them specifically because they took medi-cal and how I informed them my primary wouldn't cover services twice, she told me "No, we would have seen you if that was the case" I called Medi-Cal again in hopes that maybe I could just send the primary EOBs for them and get them paid, but when I called it was discovered that the billed amounts also don't match the primary EOB( everything has to perfectly matched in order for the claim to be processed and paid). I would gladly pay the bill if the insurance had been billed correctly and they would do their job correctly in regards to billing. It isn't the right thing to do, to pay a bill that isn't my responsibility....in fact doing the right thing is them actually taking the time to bill it correctly or see exactly where the error is. FYI, I did hospital billing for 8 years before I decided to stay at home with my son, so I know a thing or two about billing and what needs to be done and what is legal and illegal. My suggestion to Paula is to have Monica trained better, or fire her and get someone who is trained better (the 1st option I feel would be the best)

The speech pathologist came to our house and now my son sees her in her office. She is great and sees him in the summer when he has no speech during the summer at school. The receptionist is great as well. Would recommend this place to anyone. The only not ok thing is they don't take medi- cal anyone so my insurance/cash pay covers it now. They stopped about a year ago taking medi-cal.
