The…read morecommunication with parents is terrible, and concerns are not handled with basic courtesy or respect. Considering how expensive this service is, it is unacceptable that we were not treated with the level of service, communication, and respect we deserve. I paid a significant amount of money expecting a professional service, but instead I received poor communication and was even told that my emails were "idiotic." "I will be processing a refund shortly. I do not need any customer sending me idiotic emails and not do their part." This is an incredibly disrespectful and inappropriate way to speak to a customer and a parent. If a school has an issue with a customer, there are professional ways to communicate it. Calling a customer's emails "idiotic" is completely unacceptable. Parents are paying for a service and deserve clear communication, professionalism, and basic respect. Unfortunately, I experienced none of those things. I would strongly advise other parents to think twice before choosing this driving school. Based on my experience, I absolutely do not recommend Newton Driving School.

Inconsistent, Unprofessional, and Ultimately a Waste of Time & Money…read more I am writing this review on behalf of my father, a retired military Veteran from India, who just completed 7 lessons with Brookline Driving School. Unfortunately, his experience was overwhelmingly disappointing and I would strongly advise you to look elsewhere. Our primary issue was the complete lack of consistency between instructors. He had at least three different teachers, primarily switching between Ervin and Vitaly. While Ervin was patient and seemed to genuinely enjoy teaching, the same cannot be said for his counterpart. Vitaly was, frankly, obnoxious. He lacked basic respect for his students, was often loud and visibly frustrated, creating an environment where my father felt intimidated and unable to ask questions. If you don't have the patience for this job, why are you in it? To make matters worse, he made uncalled-for and stereotypical "jokes" about Indians being bad drivers, which was completely unprofessional and offensive. The biggest practical problem arose from this inconsistency. Ervin and Vitaly taught completely different techniques for parallel parking. One would say to do it one way, and the next lesson, the other would contradict it. This constant change in instruction confused my father daily and shattered his confidence. The culmination of this failure was on his road test. He failed specifically because of the parallel parking maneuver. The conflicting advice from his own instructors left him unsure of the correct method, leading to a critical error. I hold Brookline Driving School 100% responsible for this. We are cutting our losses and heeding our neighbors' recommendation to try Waltham Driving School instead. Save your time, your money, and your sanity--go somewhere else. This school is unorganized and employs instructors who are not aligned, with at least one who lacks the basic demeanor required to teach.

Best Driving School in the area. Highly recommend!…read more Appreciated the technical driving maneuver videos and the instructors who worked with my kid. Shout out to Arsenio who built up my daughter's confidence. Anna Sab is great-straight shooter. Her husband was at the RMV for road test day. Communication between CS and parents was great. Attend any zoom meetings and watch videos as a parent. Getting instructor hour appointments was sometimes tricky in beginning-but tell your kid not to give up and keep trying to sign up for instructor hours when it's sign up time or get on waiting list for cancellations. Highly recommend paying the extra $ if you can afford it to have CS Driving School sponsor the road test and use their driving instruction cars. Made things much easier and honestly, it was better for me not to be the sponsor in the backseat of the road test car. IMO parents must practice driving with their kid as much as possible-above and beyond the required parent supervision hours. As hard, scary and frustrating as it can be! I spent hours at night practicing parallel parking with my kid the "CS Driving School way" (also 50 ft back up, parking on a hill maneuvers, and 3 point turns). My kid passed the road test because of her commitment to learning to drive, CS Driving School instructors, and the practice driving hours she did with me. Thank you CS Driving School for preparing my kid to drive on the very busy streets of the Watertown area, where adults with drivers licenses don't adhere to basic traffic rules & laws, buses and Amazon trucks drive like no one else is on the road, bicyclists don't adhere to rules of the road, and very few drivers in MA seems to USE THEIR BLINKER ANYMORE!

Despite Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 90, Section 10 clearly stating that foreign license holders can legally drive in the state for up to one year with a proper translation, the school rejected my application citing Appendix C from the RMV -- which only applies to license conversion, not to the legality of driving as a recent arrival. I have been in the U.S. for just 4 months, well within the 6-month window confirmed by the RMV for driving on a foreign license. I explained this to the school, but they were unwilling to acknowledge the legal difference. I found their approach dismissive and poorly informed of state law. It's unfortunate to see a driving school show such limited understanding of the legal framework they operate within. I do not recommend them to international drivers, especially those who meet all legal requirements but are treated as if they don't.

The technical terms are taught nicly and easily ( 3 point turn, parallel parking, stop signs wtc.) that helps you a lot for the test and also for regular driving. I should mention that the instructor's behavior toward the students is also very nice and gentle. I would though like to suggest them two very important points: - Instructor should limit his phone calls and use bluethooth headpieces. I understand that they get constantly get calls from students which they wants to take, but sometimes its too much and a new learner might not feel good. - They should consider replying the texts of the students more frequently than they so now. It can reduce the number of calls they take as well! Overall, I really like their teaching method and friendlynness and recommend people to go to them :)

DO NOT GO TO PERFECTION DRIVING SCHOOL (MA) -- SCAM ALERT…read more I took lessons with Yohannes, and after barely teaching me anything useful, he convinced me to book my road test at an RMV far away, claiming "they're less strict and more likely to pass you." I trusted him, but when I got there, that RMV turned out to be even stricter than the others -- and I failed. After talking to people there, it became clear this RMV is known for rejecting people. It honestly felt like Yohannes sent me there on purpose so I'd fail and have to pay him again for another test. Complete scam move. Avoid this school at all costs.
