Bay Area Driving Academy Reviews

I’ve been putting off learning to drive for longer than I should’ve, but I was finally in a place to overcome my anxiety with driving. I took 4 lessons as well as the test day assist with David. My experience with David was all I could’ve asked for. He’s attentive, calm, and gives great feedback through out the lessons. I was so nervous starting out but he definitely eased my nerves as time went on. I managed to pass my driving test the first time around. I couldn’t be more appreciative to David and the ease of working with him during my driving journey. Thank you so much! (1/13/2022)

Our instructor Ryane was awesome! So nice. We started at a different school and I wish we had started here. I will be back in a couple years with my other kid : ) (1/8/2022)

My daughter was home for college for two weeks. I scheduled 2 lessons with Ryane. Ryane was an awesome instructor. She was patient, professional, on time and helpful with areas of improvement and identifying strengths. My daughter took her driving test before going back to college and passed. I’ve used Bay Area Driving Academy for all of my kids and I recommend them to anyone who is learning how to drive. Rates are reasonable and the service is professional. Definitely recommend Bay Area Driving Academy. (1/5/2022)

I took “Test Day Assist Course” with Sandra and Ryane for my driving tests. That was great I did not need to prepare a car for tests by myself so that I can concentrate on the tests. I failed tests twice due to my mistakes, but the instructions by them were great. I finally passed the test and do recommend this service for anyone who can not bring a car and/or a driver with a CA license. (1/4/2022)

Wow. Completely blown away with my experience and the lessons I received. I drove and was taught with/by Carrie, and other members of my family have been taught by them too. The lessons were fun every time. The first day Carrie took me up to the mountains, and had me driving on big streets. It may seem daunting, but Carrie picks up well on the ability of the driver. The lessons following were just as fantastic. A huge part of what makes this company awesome is that they have genuine care for the people they are teaching. Carrie has worked with drivers of many different skill levels. If someone is uncomfortable or scared with the idea of driving Carrie would definitely help. I could have taken my driving test after the required number of lessons, but I had an extra to help and I think it genuinely did. Surprised to see some of the other reviews having trouble with communication. Carrie would text me before lessons, telling me they are coming, and I could also take the initiative to text them and ask if they were on their way, which I would receive a fast response to. Another cool part of this company is the lesson summary, that gets emailed after every lesson. It tells you how you performed on the lesson, and recommendations and comments on what to practice and improve Overall an extremely positive experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to learn to drive or review their driving skills. Shoutout Carrie! (11/25/2021)
