They are not actively teaching, they have binder with practice questions and a practice test you can easily get online. After passing their practice test, I scheduled my what I thought was my permit test. Thats when they told me they only do practice test there, I would have to go to motor vehicle to actually take my permit test. Oh and on top of that I have to pay for it. Are you kidding! This place is a joke! Save your money and got online. They have a series of practice test . I'm once you pass those you will be good to go. This place is meant to fool foreigners.

From start to finish, everything was smooth and super helpful. Shoutout to my Zoom class instructor, Crystal -- she was incredibly informative and made the lessons easy to follow. She broke things down in a way that made sense and helped me feel more confident every step of the way. Major props to my in-car driving instructor, Tyler B. -- hands down one of the best teachers I've had for anything. He kept things real, was super funny and kind, and gave me the best driving techniques, like the 3-line method that helped me kill it on the road and especially with parking. Tyler made learning to drive way less stressful and way more chill, and I'm really grateful for his guidance. Communication and scheduling were smooth, and the school even let me use one of their cars for the DMV test, which made the whole process that much easier. Thanks to them, I've officially got my L today!! If you're looking to get your license the right way -- go with The Next Street. You won't regret it.

Their Zoom classes were very informative, communication went smoothly with scheduling, and both of my instructors from this location, Constantine and Jason were very kind, willing to help me out when needed, helping me learn to comfortably take to the roads and highway, and the school was kind enough to even lend me their car to use in my DMV test, and now I've finally got my own license! Thanks again, I definitely can recommend your school to any future aspiring drivers!

Even when I finished early he would make me sit in the classroom and do nothing until the scheduled 2 hours was over. The driving portion was spent with Frank making me drive him around to fast food restaurants while I waiting for him to eat in the car. I paid for the driving portion by the hour and the time spent waiting from him came off from that time. He would shush me when I asked him questions. He once made me pick up his next student and she drove me home. She had never driven a car in her life and her first experience was on the highway in the pouring rain with me in the car. I'm shocked I made it home alive. Upon the final lesson Frank assured me that I would never get my license and I needed to pay for more lessons. I told him I wasn't spending another $800. He said it could be 800, it could be more. Needless to say I passed the exam on my first try and I'm a pretty good driver now, no thanks to frank.

Our child spent 3 years at the school, and it started out well but by the end of our time there we…read morewere glad to be done dealing with them. The teachers are nice and have a good curriculum, but it doesn't vary from year to year, so if your child goes for multiple years they repeat the same songs/experiments/projects every year. It is a private, not-for-profit school, and that is good and bad. The good thing is their is a volunteer Board that handles the finances, policies, etc for the school. The bad side of that is children with behavioral issues (physically aggressive with others, excessive crying from separation issues) take a large amount of time and attention from the teachers, leaving the rest of the students with less direct teaching and adult interactions. The first year there was a floater teacher/teachers aid that was very helpful in these situations, but that position didn't exist in the 2nd and 3rd year for us. We would have gone elsewhere for the 3rd year but Covid restrictions kept our preferred school from opening. The room has multiple stations that kids can choose to play with items like play doh/floam, a water station, painting, play kitchen, etc, so they choose where they spend time, and then there is something teacher-led for the children to interact with the teacher. It's nice for kids to pick what they do, but there isn't a structure in place to ensure kids participate in the teacher-led portion, and if that is where the true curriculum planned for the day or week happens, it's possible your child is just playing all day. That's fine for part of the time, but we found it happened a lot more frequently than we wanted. We were looking for social interaction as well as teaching kindergarten preparation skills, and we ended up teaching most of the skills at home. There was a change in the Director position during our time there, and we did not feel that the new Director had the same skills or strengths as the previous one, and we did not agree with the handling of classroom issues that indirectly impacted our child. Maybe with time this will improve, but we were often frustrated or disappointed in the processes in place.
