Online classes: admittedly these are very, very long and kind of boring. They are what they are…read more In-car lessons: these went well. Always started on time and finished on time. The quality of instructors has a quality mix to it, but most were very good. Also, if you like an instructor, you can try to schedule more lessons with that specific instructor, which was helpful. It can be difficult to find lessons when and where you want, but if you book far enough ahead of time, you can generally find several reasonable options. General communications: Every time we called the company for help, they were very responsive and always friendly. Overall, I would say our experience was very positive, and I would use them again if I need to and would recommend them.

They always make us feel comfortable every lesson and teach you everything they know about driving and the road without any hesitations. We really learned a lot from them. Ruben was a very good instructor from our driving educational course, you will know that he's doing it for a long time cause he's very professional. Thanks also to the pretty lady in front desk for always being nice and informative in assisting with our paper works. If you are looking for a good driving school, I would recommend this 100%!!!

I must give credit where credit is due! I received a prompt follow-up email directly from…read more"Corporate Coach," Mr. Andy Moore, regarding my earlier review. I was informed that my Driver Improvement Program class was not indicative of their usual, normal instruction. While this is obviously not an excuse for Mr. Llew Davies's absolute lack of organization and him giving out all the answers to the class exam, I thought I'd update my review since I did appreciate Mr. Moore following up with me by email AND phone call. I also appreciated Mr. Moore's substantive update and decision to inform me that Mr. Llew Davies is no longer an instructor at the school. While Mr. Moore offered me a free retake of the class (sadly not a refund), I don't think I'll be taking advantage of it since I don't foresee any need right now or in the future.

I just had my first lesson with a Helen Castillo. After enduring it, I immediately moved my next…read moretwo to a different Greg's location in hopes of the teacher there having basic empathy. She was so incredibly rude. Not only could I not understand a word she was saying, she was wearing a black mask and sunglasses, so I had no way of seeing her facial expressions. When we exited the Greg's building and started walking towards the car, I was not even an ounce sure of what to do (again, did not understand a word). She told me to open the car door and get in, and when I did, I started to adjust the seat since that is what you are supposed to do. She got mad at me for doing and told me to stop and that I'm good with how the seat is when I literally could not see an inch of the road in front of me. Then, even though I informed her that I only had about 15 hours done with my parents, she continually acted as if it's standard for me to be absolutely perfect on the road, and since I was not, she continuously put me down, passive aggressively called me "honey," and treated me as if I was completely incompetent, not just on the road. She had me pull over when we were driving residential, not once, but twice, just to tell me that my stopping is horrible and I am a bad, inexperienced driver (that's why I'm here?!). When we were sitting at a red light, she raised her voice to tell me to keep looking at the cars next to me and not on the road in front of me, and when I had obeyed her, I didn't realize that the light changed to green and she immediately got agitated and told me to press on the brake in an extremely condescending manner. When the lesson was miraculously over, we went into the building and she asked me "how do you think you did on this scale of 1-4?" Once again almost crying I told her "maybe a 2?" she agreed and put a 2 on every single thing she was supposedly checking me on, even the ones I arguably did good at. Never coming back to this location again.

We had a horrendous experience with another driving school. For my daughter to get her license…read morewithout waiting the two months, she needed to get the seven hours of behind the wheel. I went on Yelp and found Safe Driving School. The lady was pleasant, so I went ahead and signed her up. That same evening my daughter was driving. The driving instructor was beyond knowledgeable and kind. Unlike the other driving school instructor, he knew where he was going and wasn't constantly looking at his phone. He also spent the entire time with my daughter and gave her some tips that I am even going to use. It was definitely a different experience, and I can't say enough good things about Safe Driving School.

On her first day her driving instructor was absolutely mean! Told her to place her hands in incorrect positions on the steering wheel...at the bottom of the wheel! He then told her that while turning she could not use hand over hand turning but that she had to turn using a single hand spinning the wheel! Then, they got a flat tire and the instructor apparently did not know how to change it so instead of getting her full lesson 45 minutes of the lesson was used by getting the tire changed while my granddaughter was told to sit in the back seat. For her second lesson she prayed to not get the same instructor again but, when she went out to her assigned car guess who the instructor was...the same mean guy! I waited for her in the lot until her lesson was over and they returned. Upon return my granddaughter got into my car absolutely sobbing because again the instructor was so harsh and mean to her. Now, be advised, it takes a lot to bring my granddaughter to tears. I asked her if she wanted me to go in and speak with them and she begged me to just leave...that all she wanted to do was to leave and go home. It took the entire trip home for her to calm down she said she never wanted to go back. After these first two incidents it took her awhile to arrange for her third class but finally, she did. Thankfully, for her third class she finally got a different instructor! I don't know what sort of business they think they are operating! Hiring instructors who are cruel is not a good way to handle any sort of business! My suggestion to anyone planning to use Astick for their child's driving instruction is to go elsewhere! If I could give negative stars...I would!

Called the office to explain exactly the driving skills we wanted the instructor to focus on and asked them to note that with the instructor. We arrived early at the Bethesda office. Office was closed with a sign saying their instructors will meet you there if you have a scheduled lesson. When the lesson time came and went, I called the first posted phone number, which was out of service. Not a good sign. The second number was answered, and we were then contacted by the instructor who had parked on the street outside -- the first of multiple communication issues. The instructor had no idea why we had scheduled a lesson. Compared to "the competition" in our area (the one with ex-cops, which we previously used), the instructor was unfriendly and unwelcoming --- not a good thing with a new, un-confident driver. After the lesson, my daughter told me that the instructor hardly gave her feedback while she was driving, gave her turn and other directions at the last second, and told her to slow down instead of speeding up to be closer to highway speed when she was merging onto the highway. When she first entered the car, the instructor was playing loud talk-radio. When my daughter asked if he could turn it off (at least she had the sense not to be playing talk-radio during a driving lesson); he turned it down, not off, until she asked again. I don't expect miracles from a driving school, but we know from experience that Habesha's service and professionalism was far below the competition.
