(Very convenient for me with shared custody) Ask for David Rodriguez he was so good with son. Very professional and knows how to work well with my teens. I would definitely recommend this company & instructor if you're looking to get driving lessons.

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!

She was on the verge of stopping the car and getting out more than once (I wish she had!) as a result of how uncomfortable she felt with him. During the lesson he would have her pull over so he could talk about road rules. He rambled on about traffic issues but what he ended up talking about were his bizarre personal beliefs. It was a horrible experience for her. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

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.

My oldest daughter did her drivers training with Northern California Driving School in 2015 - 2016…read moreso when it was time for the next child I called them right away. I was very pleased with the way they worked around our first daughter's schedule. The training was excellent. I love that they are not only geared toward helping the kids pass the test, but to become safe drivers as well. Getting into their schedule might be a little tricky at times, but worth the wait, in my opinion.

Anyway I was terrified when I took my first lesson (10 years ago), but the dirving coach made me feel comfortable.
