Just passed my driving test today! I took classes with both Carrie and Vanessa who were super helpful and made sure I had exactly what I needed to pass the test. Carrie is also all around fun to talk to during lessons – would highly recommend these classes if you’re looking to learn how to drive. 7/5/2018
Definitely a 10 out of 10 experience. My instructor Tony is really knowledgeable & he delivered a comprehensive training. I also had the chance to meet Carrie and Sal for my DMV test and the ‘Test Day Assistance’ course is highly recommended! Having some feedback before the test DOES make a difference. The Booking system is handy, straight forward and I also have to thank Jimmy because he always made an effort to accomodate my schedule. A great experiencie overall, from the training perspective as for the administrative side of things. 6/29/2018
Update
First time around had a very bad experience, but I decided to give it another go. I got to talk to one of the owners, Carrie, and she was very polite and explained what had happened. Anyways, 10/10 would recommend to a friend. Lesson-wise, I had an awesome time and learned a lot. 6/5/2018
We chose BADA for my 16 yr old daughter based on the Yelp reviews. We had instructor Teressa for 4 hours and then instructor Carrie for last 2 hours. Both of them were very good and taught my daughter what to do and how to drive and pointed out all the mistakes she did at the same time made her feel very comfortable while she was driving. We did 4 hours (2 hours at a time within a couple of weeks) and then saved the last 2 hours for just before the actual driving test. We also practiced with her A LOT in between. My daughter had her very first driving test this morning and she passed the first time. The DMV instructor made sure to let me know that she did very well and it felt like going on a joy ride. So thanks to Teressa and Carrie!! I would pick them again for our next kid when the time comes in a few years! Awesome!! 6/4/2018
I had Vanessa for two sessions after not driving for MONTHS, and let me just say she is an amazing instructor for anyone who faces anxiety or nervousness while driving. She is extremely calm and collected and will definitely make anyone feel at ease while driving; her down to earth attitude made both sessions exceptionally fun and enjoyable, while still being exceedingly informative! I personally had a lot of trouble when it came to pulling up to curbs, and Vanessa gladly helped me through the process numerous times without hesitation (at one point, she even got out of the car to tell me how far away the car was from the curb)! Overall, she’s AMAZING!!! She’s everything you could possibly ask for in an instructor (especially if you’re a new driver) 😀
I also had Carrie for two sessions and she’s everything I just stated above and more! She’s super cool, friendly, and overall awesome!! I only had her for one session right before my actual test day and I can’t believe how much she taught me within such a short time frame; it’s mind-blowing how informative, yet fun both sessions were with her! 😀
Tldr; I couldn’t have asked for better instructors to make driving feel like such a fun and great experience!! 5/24/2018
