I had a great experience going to this school and have zero complaints. The instructor Chris is a bit harsh on his critiquing of the students driving process but this is a good thing because it really refines your driving! This was the thing that stood out the most to me with my time in the yard and maybe my entire time there! He picked with every little thing we did with driving and I was frustrated at first but when it came time to test I realized that he actually fine tuned my driving and it made me realize how good he really was at his job! He made us into really good drivers!
Bobi is amazing at being a yard instructor and it would be amazing if we had a bobi at every Smith and Solomon then every student can experience the dedication and attention he showed all of his students! Bobi was always up and interacting with everyone! Always joking with people and teaching! If you had a question he would answer it and would help with whatever he could!
I didn't really get to work with Tom too much but from the interactions I had with him, how could anyone not like this guy! Amazing personality and an all around good guy!
The administrations ...there are no words for how helpful and amazing these people are! I couldn't tell you who is better out of the administration and the instructors! I have never met anyone more helpful than Terri! She makes you feel welcome and is eager to help!
Darren engages with the students and is in the yard often! He is willing to set bias aside and remain neutral with any issue you present to him and make you feel like he is on your side! He also teaches maneuvers and covers pretrip. He's a versatile man!
I didn't interact with Bernice much but from the experiences that I have had with her, she is just as amazing as any employee there!
I have toured a few schools in the area and spoke with many people all around and this is definitely the best school there is in this area! Look no further and enroll at Smith and Solomon! read more
