My adult son just passed his driving road test yesterday. I’ve booked my son for 6 hours adult driving lessons with instructors Leroy and Forrest. In addition, my son took a 2 hour “Pre-Test Preparedness Course” with Instructor Forrest and she really boosted his confidence. The Bay Area Driving Academy’s 5-CORE COMPETENCIES Assessment was really helpful for my son to know what he needs to work on his own time. Both instructors Leroy and Forrest were patient, friendly and knowledgeable about relaying safe driving and road tips to my son. I also want to give a shout out to Jenny at the office for being efficient on rescheduling us when things didn’t work out as planned. I highly recommend learning with Bay Area Driving Academy.

I’ve worked with multiple instructors at this school to get my adult driver’s license and they are all very nice and knowledgeable about the test and the rules of the road. The post lesson feedback which scores the core competencies is extremely helpful to make sure I am making progress with each lesson.

I worked with Forest, Scott, Leroy, Carrie, and Ryane (I had Ryane for my passing test assist) and I would highly recommend all of them! Also shout out to Jenny for always being understanding of my work/test schedule and working around it. (10/6/2023)

I’m extremely happy with my 3 lessons with instructor Scott. He was patient and gave me actionable pointers to improve my driving. This was my first time driving ever, and by the third lesson, my confidence was up. Instructor Leroy assisted me on the test day and it was a great experience as well. I passed my test. Thank you!

I’m so grateful to the team at Bay Area Driving Academy for helping me develop my driving skills and confidence. I had several instructors (Carrie, David, Leroy, Ryane and Scott), each of whom was patient and thoughtful. They provided me with actionable feedback for my behind-the-wheel test, as well as practical advice to help me be a safe and confident driver after passing the test.

Whether you’re a first-time driver like me or just someone who’s not very confident navigating the Bay Area roads, I highly recommend Bay Area Driving Academy.

Thank you so, so much, everyone! (5/10/2023)
