Bay Area Driving Academy Reviews

I had such a great experience with this business! To start off I wasn’t comfortable being behind the wheel and due to certain circumstances I didn’t have someone to teach me. I opted to look online for driving schools and I found Bay Area Driving Academy. Booking lessons was very easy and my driving instructor Carrie was AMAZING, not only is she super helpful but she’s so nice and goes into nice detail when explaining how to maneuver the vehicle. She gave me a lot of pointers and helpful tips to be a confident driver. I passed on my first try and thanks to Carrie, I highly recommend her!! 4/27/2018

I am a mature (older) driver. Have to take a behind the wheel test at the DMV. Prepared by having a 2 hour lesson with Tony, FABULOUS. He is great. Took me everywhere and pointed out all the things I did well as well as the things I needed to practice. I have been driving for many years so wasn’t sure if I had some bad habits. He is a terrific teacher Wish he could take me to my test. 4/18/2018

The 6 hour teen driving program in Bay Area Driving Academy helped me passed the driving test on the first try in Santa Clara DMV (which is notable for their strict test evaluators!) Carrie, who was my instructor, was a super cool person and she is very informative on certain areas of improvement when it comes to preparing for the exam! Also, most of the teen lessons are “piggy back,” in which my driving lesson ends at the house of the next student being instructed. In this, the student after me will drive me back home. This “piggy back” method is very safe and also serves a great opportunity to refresh of what you have learned from Carrie, knowing that she will be explaining all of her driving techniques to another student in which you can recapture all the things that she has taught you 🙂 Lastly, the vehicles are the new hybrid Honda civics, and they are equipped with extra brakes for the instructor just in case if a student makes a driving maneuver mistake. 4/16/2018

I had my first driving lesson with Teresa and she was amazing!! She kept me calm and gave me the confidence I needed! I just wish her schedule wasn’t so full, so that I could get more lessons with her! Highly recommended! 4/4/2018

My instructor Hassell is great at teaching & communicating. He is awesome! 4/3/2018
