    Cruising

    I'm not much of yelper, as their business practices are trash, but the lesson with Samin was so good; I needed somewhere to rave. If you are considering it, I highly recommend pulling the trigger. Samin immediately made me feel at ease. He was knowledgeable and detailed, without going too in depth. Can't wait to ride again. 10/10, worth every penny!

    I failed my CMSP range test and hired Samin to help me prepare for the re-take, and then passed the same day. Great experience with Samin overall. The class atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, and easy to follow unlike CMSP Motorcycle safety training course where instructor Angela was the worst and the motorcycles were so old and beat up they kept dying on us. Samin's motorcycle, on the contrary, was in a great condition and so much easier to learn on. Highly recommend!

    Just recently took the CMSP course to waive the riding portion of the DMV motorcycle exam and just passed. I couldn't have done it without taking those 2 sessions with Samin beforehand as the pace is fast and challenging, but thankfully those sessions prepared me to know what to expect by focusing on key fundamentals. Now off to the DMV to take the written exam and hopefully will be licensed soon. Thanks again Samin!

    First day, first lesson with Samin!  What a great time!

    Samin is the man! Highly, highly recommended!! How to explain the training you get in just three words? Understandable, doable and fun! How describe Samin in three words? Professional, attentive and knowledgeable. I found Samin in a Google search for motorcycle classes because I was looking to finally get my first motorcycle and M1 endorsement on my driver's license. Being an older guy, I was looking for some one-on-one training so I could pass the DMV test. First lesson was awesome! So was the second and the third. My confidence level of riding grew exponentially each time. He teaches the basics and real world things. So, instead of taking the DMV test, I decided to take a CMSP course to satisfy my state skills requirements. What Samin taught me put me way ahead of my fellow students in the course! It felt so assuring knowing already what they were teaching. There was no pressure of that steep learning curve! Instead of being stressed, I was having fun. When it came to test time, I had it down. I fully owe it to Samin and give him full credit to my success! Now, I'm riding my new bike and cruising like I dreamed of doing. I highly recommend Samin, he is worth more than what he is asking for his time. Don't miss out, give him a shot! I'm gonna hit him up to see if he wants to go for a ride! ;)

    First off, Samin is an excellent instructor and was able to get me on the bike in a matter of a few minutes of instruction. I've had my license for a few years, but it's been way too long since I've ridden. After the first 20 minutes of clutching the front brake with a death grip (due to fear), Samin had me comfortably ride around without a hitch. I highly suggest in purchasing 2 lessons at once (90mins of riding instruction), as it pays off to put more time behind the bike with his supervision. He also goes more in depth with shifting gears, slow turns, head placement, and all the other works (YMMV as I've already ridden before). At the end of the day, I was ecstatic to be on the bike again and I wouldn't have second guessed my decision in taking his lessons. He's a super down to earth guy and highly knowledgeable of the hobby. Plus, he takes some wicked photos!

    Iv'e always wanted to learn how to ride, but didn't know anyone that could teach me, and didn't want to go to an official course without having even sat on a bike before. True to his website Samin customizes his lesson plan for those with 0 experience. He is super friendly, calm, and has an ipad/surface pro or something which he uses to explain concepts and help you visualize what he wants you to do( which is cool as F). He used a rebel300 I believe and he provided the helmet. DEFINITELY worth checking out if you never even sat on a bike and don't even know how to turn on a bike Oh, and lastly be took some pics and sent them to me after the lesson which is pretty sick.

    Thanks to Josie who operates the Driving Eric Crazy and her team that my son passed the driving…read morebehind-the-wheel test easily yesterday! Yay!! My son had an excellent experience during his lessons, so he had good confidence going in to the test. Both of my kids used this school, and they both were so happy with the instructors there who are very supportive, patient, and positive. If you are looking for a driving school, Driving Eric Crazy is that one! We strongly recommend!!

    Just a quick update to our original 5-star review to ADD another 5-star review!! Our younger son…read morejust passed his behind the wheel test at Clairemont DMV with ZERO errors/deductions. He said that Rainier trained and prepared him well. His final lesson was 2 weeks ago, and they did a few routes of "mock testing" at the DMV on a Sunday when the DMV was closed. My first son had Eric as an instructor, and my second son had Rainier. We have had an excellent experience all around with Driving Eric Crazy and recommend them to all our friends who are looking for a referral. We are thrilled with the results and can confidently say that our older son (now 18 years old) is a fantastic and safe driver -- in fact, the ongoing chatter in his friend group is that he's by far the best driver of all his other teenage friends! Do yourself a favor and call Josie and schedule Driving Eric Crazy for your son or daughter!! You can't put a price on a safe, confident new driver.

    A relative of mines paid $549 for six hours of lessons over three days…read more I want to start off with the negatives: The experience will be very hit or miss across lessons. Your experience will depend on which instructor was assigned to you. My relative had two different instructors, very different from each other. Soleiman had a nice modern car, but his heart was not in teaching the driver but more of criticizing him all the time. His attitude, I've been told, was as if this job was a side gig to him. Not passionate about teaching, and seems to not be passionate about driving in general. My relative then switched instructors to Mayela. Mayela's car was a tad outdated and kinda dirty on the inside. The good: Business owner Dee, I've been told, is a lovely woman to have a chat with. She is certainly someone who is passionate about teaching, and I'm certain most of her employees are the same. Mayela definitely was someone who shares the passion as well. Kind, patient, understanding. TLDR: Don't waste your time and money on taking driving classes with Soleiman.
