RECENT REVIEWS for Head Instructor Carrie
After getting my license over 10 years ago, I never needed to drive since I lived in the city. This all changed after moving to the Bay Area. Good thing I found Carrie from Bay Area Driving Academy. Carrie is an excellent and professional driving instructor. In just one 2 hour lesson, Carrie helped me brush up on my super rusty driving skills, and gave me all the tips and tricks to help me feel confident getting behind the wheel by myself. I highly recommend Carrie and the Bay Area Driving Academy! 1/21/2016
Bay Area Driving Academy provides all that a learning driver could ask for! I took lessons with Carrie to prepare for my behind-the-wheel license test, and passed with no anxiety about ‘being prepared enough’.
Lessons themselves were informative and relaxing, providing the optimal environment for building driving confidence. Scheduling was easy and concise, and everything went according to plan.
Thanks, Bay Area Driving Academy! 1/21/2016
Just left the DMV with my 4th new driver. All 4 have taken their behind the wheel lessons with Carrie and all 4 have been well prepared for driving in the Bay Area. BADA has always been professional, helpful, and available to give great instruction. So glad we found this driving school. 1/21/2016
If you want to learn to drive, I would definitely recommend Bay Area Driving Academy. Carrie was an amazing instructor! She took away my initial nervousness about driving with helpful tips and casual chats as we drove around. By my third lesson, I was very comfortable driving with her both on the backroads and the highway. I just got my license this week, and am very excited to drive! 1/16/2016
Carrie was a very good and experienced instructor. I completed my 6 hours over 3 lessons, and was on the highway by the 3rd lesson. 1st lesson was driving around neighborhood and 35-40 MPH streets, 2nd lesson was hill driving + parking, 3rd lesson was highway + driving test prep.
She prepared me for DMV driving test well, going over the score sheet and all the things I could be marked off for.
Unlike other driving schools, you pay per lesson (rather than paying for all 3 lessons upfront), so if you’re not happy you don’t have to continue.
I was happy with my experience. 1/15/2016
