Both passed their test, first try! I'd like to express extra gratitude to Erin and Anita. My youngest was very timid behind the wheel, but Anita was able to make great progress and break through all her fears while teaching her how to navigate the road. Her confidence skyrocketed. Erin did an exceptional job helping me coordinate her schedule and making my daughters experience nothing but positive. I can't thank them enough. Highly recommend A-Z, they have the best trainers and great availability options!

His calm, patient, and encouraging teaching style gave me the courage and confidence to get behind the wheel and learn. He never criticizes, only guides and supports, which made a huge difference for me as a beginner. He is always on time, and his classes always finish on time, which I really appreciate. Thanks to Ramnik, I've not only learned how to drive but also how to be a safe and confident driver. I truly enjoy driving now, and I couldn't have asked for a better instructor!

We had such a great experience with Phuong as a driving instructor that I really wanted to share…read more My daughter initially started with a different instructor, and unfortunately that experience was stressful--there was a lot of yelling, which made her lose confidence behind the wheel. A friend recommended Phuong, and I'm so grateful we found her. From the very first lesson, my daughter felt much more at ease. Phuong is incredibly patient, calm, and understanding, and she created a supportive environment that really helped rebuild my daughter's confidence. Thanks to her guidance, my daughter passed her driving test today! I truly appreciate the way Phuong teaches--not just the technical skills, but also how she encourages and supports her students. It made all the difference for us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and effective driving instructor.

Great communication! Service: upon initial phone call they…read morewent over what they provide and locations. The cost of the services was the best around. My son needed 6 hours driving instruction. They set up the days and times which worked perfect for his winter break which was that week. I called on a Friday after Christmas then got a lesson for the following Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. It was at 3pm which was good for my son to deal with afternoon traffic driving. Instructor: very communicative via text and phone call. Sometimes he was early, which worked great for us. First lesson: went over rules of road and allowed son to drive with much guidance. Second lesson: more driving for my son and learning to merge or lane change. Third lesson: went to dmv to practice route and what will be tested. Hand on papers were provided to the parent on what to practice.

Alan is an amazing instructor, and I can't recommend him highly enough for anyone who needs to…read morelearn how to drive. He is probably the best instructor in the Bay Area, and he will get you confidently driving in no time! I did 9 lessons with Alan over a period of 1 month, and he took me from being not very confident (after trying out three lessons a different instructor) to passing my test and driving well on the freeway! This was done with zero practice in between lessons. Alan is extremely professional, is always on time, and delivers same day feedback. He also tailors his teaching style to the student's learning style, and is keen on understanding his students' thought process if mistakes are made, so they can be properly fixed. For every single weakness I had in my driving, Alan had a strategy to fix it - this included fixing my turning speed, correctly using my mirrors, lane positioning and keeping the wheel straight. He is adept at observing to see exactly what the student is doing wrong and coming up with a formula to correct it. Additionally, he is extremely professional. He was always punctual and polite, never raised his voice and never did anything that diminished my confidence in any way as a student who was initially struggling. I have always had some anxiety about driving, but I actually looked forward to my lessons because I started to enjoy driving as I could feel myself improving. On the day of the lesson, he made sure that I was confident and encouraged me not to feel anxious, and I was happy to pass on my first try. Scheduling is also easy on the website, and the response rate is fast. If you need to learn how to drive, you can't go wrong with Alan at Perfect Score!

I usually don't trust any business with only 5 star reviews, but I can say with confidence that he deserves it! I have always been a very anxious driver, but thanks to him, I'm comfortable driving now and today I passed my behind-the-wheel test on my first try! I can't recommend him enough.

Bay Hill is the best driving school in the Bay Area. I know that's saying a lot, but truth be…read moretold, I had such a great experience here. I'm a freshly 20 year old female without any experience behind the wheel, and I mean any!! Unfortunately, my nerves got the best of me during my first lesson and I freaked out. I caused myself and my instructor some stress, and sadly I was unmotivated to drive for a while. Before I left a negative review, I contacted Bay Hill's through email. They made things right and scheduled my second appointment with JP, and he was fantastic! I went from shaking like a leaf behind the wheel to having genuine confidence in 2 hours-- No exaggeration! We drove around and shared a heartfelt conversation, in which he also shared some tips on lane switching and turns. Halfway through our session, we stopped for water and stretches, so I knew my comfortability was respected. The negative reviews on this business are so upsetting. This is an excellent Asian-owned, woman-owned small business with so much diversity on their staff. If your first lesson goes awry, contact them!!! They are bound to have someone you are comfortable with. This is an honest review! I could not recommend Bay Hill Driving School enough!

My instructor was a bit of a nightmare who didn't talk me through any steps, she just told me to…read morestart driving right away and harshly corrected anything I did wrong. She would smack gum, eat food, and generally had an attitude of not caring. Only until my last class did she run me through a couple of rules but I never really learnt anything under her teaching. It was high pressure and everything I learned was like being tested without knowing there was a test or what the material was on. The only saving grace here is that the people at the office are great, they kindly signed my second permit and gave me another learning certificate for $25 when I lost my first one. I would shop around for a better driving school before settling on this one.

Because our 19-year old daughter has learning disabilities, my wife and I wanted to make sure she…read morereceived additional driving instruction and contacted Beverly Driving School. We were willing to pay additional funds to help our daughter competently manage the responsibility of a car. We paid for 82 hours of lessons beginning 6/18/25 to 10/18/25. All of our payments were made directly by request to Mack (real name: Mohsen Khaziri) and not Beverly Driving School. The number on his website is his cell phone. Mohsen was aware our daughter had learning disabilities and we were convinced he had the training and skills to help someone like her. Knowing that he was a father gave us even more confidence that she would get the security she needed. And the fact that we invested a significant sum of money is a testimony to our commitment to get her the help she needed. On our initiative, my wife and I did ride-alongs with Mack and our daughter because we put our trust in him as a professional. When our daughter started giving us feedback that her motivation for continuing was lacking, we didn't take it too seriously since it's been a challenge for her to stick with things. Later, we realized the discomfort wasn't the process but was with Mack. Our daughter told us she was touched inappropriately on multiple occasions. He repeatedly asked to meet with her outside of lessons and requested it be kept secret. I confronted Mack by phone on 10/18/25 and after asking directly, he acknowledged viewing pictures of her on her phone. I also asked him directly about touching her thigh and he said yes - apparently because she moved her seat too far forward. Lastly, I asked him if he had ever behaved inappropriately and he denied it. He did not apologize for any of this but changed the subject to her upcoming driving test. My wife and I have taken further steps with the police about this. We filed police report P25-291-0621 with SJPD Officer D. Tran #5131. He took advantage of a person with learning disabilities and it doesn't matter what age. It was one of the most deplorable things one can do. It was done from a position of immaturity and he could have told us this was going on but he didn't say a word. We do not want this behavior to be repeated with anyone else. In addition, at the end of summer, Mack also asked us for a significant cash advance because he "needed it". We refused. I also repeatedly asked for billing statements and after repeated entreaties, received a hastily typed word document. I'm still waiting for a summarized statement of our lessons.

Worst driving school experience I've had in the Bay Area. There is no reliable way to contact them…read moreat all. Calls go unanswered and emails are ignored. That alone should have made me walk away. I still went ahead with lessons and the experience was even worse. The instructor, David, wore a mask the entire time and barely spoke, which made it very hard to understand instructions. He was unprofessional, unfriendly, and clearly not interested in teaching. He gave unclear guidance and made no effort to explain things properly. Despite claiming to prepare students for the DMV test, he never once took me on an actual DMV route or anything close to it. The lessons felt random, rushed, and not structured for learning. I have tried other driving schools in the Bay Area, and this one is by far the worst. Many of the positive reviews appear fake or at least highly misleading, because my experience was the complete opposite. Avoid this school. Avoid David. There are much better options elsewhere.

We also wanted a female (my nephew, upon discussion with his friends, thought a female instructor would be more patient lol) We got that and more more with ARS. We selected Package D so my nephew could use the car he had lessons in for his driver's test. My nephew immediately liked Anika. She communicated well on when lessons would be and if any had to be rescheduled. She gave lesson notes after lessons so my nephew knew what he needed improvement on. My nephew passed on today his first try! He is now a licensed driver! We cannot recommend ARS enough. If you have a young driver that needs lessons ARS is the perfect school.

First driving lesson went well - I can't say that the instructor's car was clean or pleasant, but…read moreit had wheels and the breaks worked - fair enough, right? However, the second lesson didn't go well at all. As soon as I sat down behind the wheel, he gave me a direction to drive in, and then immediately dialed into a phone call, hung up, dialed in again.. answered calls - he had me out on the road, going in a direction I wasn't familiar with, at traffic speed (between 45 and 55 mph). This was a shock to me but probably would have been fine - however he was taking calls the whole time. His cell phone would startle me every time it rang, and his conversation was distracting. He did this even though I repeatedly told him it was making me uncomfortable. This kind of behaviour continued until I finally pulled up to a curb and told him I didn't want him to take any more phonecalls (mind you, this was 1 hour into the lesson, and at least 6-8 calls later!) and that we were going to cut the lesson short, and drive home. I didn't know where we were, but once we finally arrived in my neighbourhood I was about to take a familiar turn en route home when he SCREAMED 'NO KEEP GOING STRAIGHT!!' I got the fright of my life and thought I was about to crash into something - turns out he had single-handedly made the decision that 'we were going to go keep driving'. Yeah, right. That's when he turned snappy and rude, as if it was my fault we were going back? I told him that if I say we're going home, we ARE going home - and I didn't appreciate him making decisions otherwise. When we arrived at my house, he said 'next time I'll turn the sound on my phone off'. Needless to say, I promptly let him know that there wouldn't be a next time.

My instructor, John Yeung, was uninvolved and blatantly said "All I have to do is sit here and have my students go straight.

I would recommend going here if you are looking to just get your six hours in, but If you would actually like to learn something I suggest you go elsewhere.
