RECENT REVIEWS for Head Instructor Carrie
I took 4 lessons with Carrie before my driving test and passed on my first try. As someone who had only driven briefly in a parking lot before my first lesson, I felt safe and prepared by the time Carrie got me on the road. This level of comfort and knowledge was consistent throughout my 4 lessons. You will be very well-prepared for your driving test if you get lessons from Bay Area Driving Academy. 6/8/2017
I had lessons with Jen and Carrie, and it was not only educational but easygoing and straightforward. The skills and techniques I learned were all gradually applied to my driving, and the lessons themselves were super simple to follow but helpful (needless to say- I passed the test!)
Thank you Bay Area Driving Academy and Carrie for all your invaluable tips- I will be quick to return for any driving brush-ups. Highly recommend! 6/8/2017
I absolutely recommend this driving school. Since I had bad experiences with some instructors at different driving schools, I read a lot of reviews on Yelp and Google and decided to contact this school.
Before booking an appointment with instructor, I talked with Jimmy at the headquarter. He was such a kind. He was always polite and helpful responding to my emails and booking an appointment. Finally, I had lessons with Carrie. She was very patient and friendly.
I plan on booking another appointment soon since I need to practice on freeways. I highly recommend this school to everyone. 4/24/2017
We were very pleased with Bay Area Driving Academy for our teen. Based on Yelp reviews, we chose this driving school and Carrie as our instructor. She was very patient with our teen and taught her driving in town, on freeway and even mountain driving. Carrie always gave feedback on what to work on after each lesson and genuinely cares about her students!
Jimmy was also very helpful in booking and answering questions. The ability to book our classes online was great. Our teen really enjoyed her lessons with Carrie and passed her DMV driving test on the first try! We definitely recommend Bay Area Driving Academy and our instructor, Carrie! Thank you again!! 4/19/2017
I had 4 lessons with Bay Area Driving Academy and I can’t recommend them highly enough. My first 2 lessons were with Luis, a great instructor who put me at ease about driving. The 3rd and 4th lessons were with Carrie, who took me to the DMV for the drive test after the lesson. Having them there made the whole experience much more tolerable, which is really something considering it’s the DMV.
I have a friend who’s learning how to drive and am planning on getting her lessons from Bay Area Driving Academy as a birthday gift. You can definitely trust them to provide a quality education. 4/11/2017
