RECENT REVIEWS for Head Instructor Carrie
I took my second and third driving lessons with the Bay Area Driving Academy, with Carrie and Hassell respectively. Both were excellent instructors and pointed out mistakes both to improve my driving in general and to help me pass my driving test. I found my third lesson, with Hassell, especially helpful, and he went through a few mock tests to help me prepare for the test, emphasizing issues like coming to complete stops and making exaggerated head turns. I passed my test on the first try and am very glad that I used this company for my required lessons. (5/9/2019)
Stellar team, so kind and so helpful with me
thank you Carrie and Erin
I had a great experience with Bay Area Driving academy. I took a few lessons plus the test day assistance package. Carrie and Hassel were my instructors and I must say they are pretty good at what they do. If you are nervous about the driving test I recommend Hassel’s test preparedness course where he will put you through the DMV test, complete with the DMV test scoring sheet just like the real thing. By the way, happy to report that I passed in my first attempt. (4/3/2019)
I took my lessons with Carrie, Erin, and Hassell and they are amazing! I had my initial lessons with Carrie. She’s super patient, knows how to boost your confidence and cultivate your driving skills.
Lessons with Erin and Hassell are super fun! They refined my driving skills a lot, made me very confident to drive on freeways and I got my license in the first try!
It was my first time ever to be in the driver’s seat and I am glad I had amazing instructors to guide me! I would recommend people to listen and try to understand and follow the small driving tips all three of them give you – it makes you a better driver.
I am going to miss driving with you guys but we’ll be in touch 🙂 (4/4/2019)
I had my first driving lesson today with Carrie and she was so awesome and patient. She gave me much needed confidence and patiently gave me many tips and tricks. I am planning to take few more lessons with them before the actual DMV exam. Thanks Carrie. You were simply wonderful. (3/21/2019)
