Excellent driving school! Both of my children went to their week long driver's education class, did 6 hours of behind the wheel training, and took their driving test at the Johns Creek location. Every instructor was great. Taking the test there was so much less stressful than taking it at Driver's Services. Worth every penny - I highly recommend them! Read Less

I was nothing but thoroughly impressed with the Drive Smart program. My son completed the DriveSmart program which included classroom and actual driving with instructors. All three of his instructors were wonderful, very informative, and took time explaining the rules of the road. We also took our driving test with a Drive Smart instructor who ensured my son was ready for their license. Overall, a very positive experience! I highly recommend this organization and plan to utilize Drive Smart for my upcoming second driver! Read Less

My child finished the in-class session.  We had a $100 discount if you schedule a night session. That seemed to have gone fine.  My child had one driving lesson so far (he finished the class about 2 months ago.) The available lessons are booked 5 weeks out.  It has been a challenge to schedule  the lessons during the summer (which we wanted to finish over the summer.)  They make you use the online system to schedule the driving lessons.  You can't talk to anyone on the phone to schedule.  Wish we signed up with the other driving school in the next shopping center.  My other child went through there and we were very happy with them.  The report cards you get from the driving instructor at the other school was much more thorough.  The report here just has checks indicating your child finished a certain task with good, fair, need work and so on...  no specific notes.

This whole process would work better if the rules/system didn't seem so arbitrary. Here's the backstory: so on one day I attempt to schedule a series of driving lessons on the DS app and it makes me wait 4 days between sessions; okay, I wish there was some leniency considering the fact that I am scheduling for an 18 year old, but I can play along. Then, after my daughter's 5 week trip out of town I went into the DS app again and tried to schedule her last few driving sessions BUT the system tells me that I have to wait 10 days between sessions. This isn't the first time that the driving school has presented conflicting information (teacher says one thing; phone lady says another, driving teacher says totally different thing...Drive Scout app has a mind of its own...) Lovely. And of course it was 4 minutes after closing time, so I have to wait until Monday for a call back...surely resulting in all of the available spots being gone. We need to get this driving thing rolling, but this whole experience has turned it into nothing more than a mucky puddle of yuck. And, speaking of talking to them, yikes...I don't relish that idea at all. My previous conversations with them have been with a rude person (if you're old enough you'll understand the term 'battle axe')...ALWAYS. In fact, I can still feel the sting from the last 2 times I had to call there. I don't see how a curt and anti-customer-service oriented response or tone can build a strong presence in the community...yuck (I feel like the unworthy scalawag who is interrupting her highness' afternoon tea). Maybe that's the new way of doing business here, who knows. My first experience with them was regarding a coupon ‘mishap’....I received it in the mail and tried to use it, but it didn't work. When I called (reference comment about battle axe) I was advised that it wasn't supposed to be valid for a few days and essentially 'too bad for you lady' (or 'back to the gutters, you scalawag'). When I asked for someone higher up I was greeted (very kindly, mind you) by a manager (sorry, can't remember her name or title...manager, owner maybe?) She rocked. Apparently the printing company sent it out early & it didn't have any sort of 'start' date. She honored the coupon; of course, because that is a customer service oriented action (I was happy). That was the only positive experience I have had. I can't be the only person that has felt this way. What ultimately is important is the following. My daughter: loved class, loved the instructor(s), and has had wonderful driving teachers (I loved them too)...which is what one might expect for a $700 driving course (I went free courtesy of my school district). The marring blemish for me has been trying to navigate anything out of the ordinary...like scheduling a class online or (heavens hopefully no…) having to call and speak to someone. I am sorry to say that I should be able to step beyond this whole situation, but I don't seem to be able to....probably because I still have to call and schedule her driving test. I wonder if I will get a different response if I put on a proper British accent (just spent a month with a visiting Brit...I got this) or if I name drop local celebrities, powerful elite, or something? I am probably just digging a grave here with this ranting commentary…oh lawdy, somebody stop me now. Point is: my kid is happy, so 2 stars are for her ...wait, I'm adding another for the lady who fixed my coupon...so 3 stars are for those experiences...but 2 are GONE because I am so frustrated with this whole situation. Honestly, if the whole place had gone to h@@@ in a hand basket, but they were masters of customer service (a little fluff here, a little perk there, just be NICE) I would sing praises. My issue isn't that there are problems; it’s the way they have been handled....or, the way the nasty tempestuous attitude seeps through the phone….thus far. We'll see what happens next. I am certainly willing to upgrade (or downgrade) my rating @ this juncture because life is a fluid experience. Read Less

Drive Smart is a great driving school. Both of my kids attended and received their drivers licenses via Drive Smart. The instructors are patient, knowledgeable, and professional. The instructors seem to work well with students while maintaining a safe atmosphere for students. Some may think it's a slam dunk that if you take the driving course you're assured to get your license, but let me say that the examiners are not swayed by such. They are impacted by the performance of each individual during the test. The examiners and instructors take their jobs and tasks very seriously, and train or instruct accordingly. As a parent it's important to have faith and trust in something as important as teaching a child to drive, so go with the best! Read Less

Had to follow behind student driver for 5 painful miles while instructor was in the car. Instructor failed to direct the student to speed up while they were driving 15 miles per hour under the speed limit. The instructor also failed to teach the student proper right of way, directly causing major backups and unsafe situations on a highway. Would never use this school to teach a new driver. Read Less

Both my kids went through the Drive Smart program, passed their in classroom/road practice and road test with 95 and above.  Love this program and the staff, thank you for making this process so easy and convenient!! Read Less

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her tune up appointment. She feels confident about taking the road test next week. After her appt, we were reviewing parallel parking in our Acadia.  She lost her confidence quickly because we weren't able to help her get it. We went back in & the owner made time for us to teach her how to parallel park in such a big car. We were dumbstruck by his professionalism, kindness & grace. My other daughter will be coming here for all her lessons. Forget the high school class. I'm so impressed with this place Read Less

I took the defensive driving class offered on Groupon here. It was a good class and clean facility. I also like that we received 10 minute breaks every hour. My only recommendation would be to make the lessons more interactive and engaging to the students. That being said, even though the videos that they showed were old, some were memorable. Overall, this is a good choice for a defensive driving class. Read Less

We have had two teenagers use Johns Creek Driving school and we have been very pleased. Great value for the money, professional, and instilled the importance of safe driving in our kids. The school took away the driving and testing jitters and they passed the driving test on the first attempt. More importantly, they learned safe driving skills. Highly recommend. Read Less

I went to A1 driving to take the 30 hour class, it was so boring. I fell asleep in class and ended up failing the class. The teacher would talk about the chapter, and then watch a 30 minute video, and take a quiz, and then had a 20 minute break. We kept doing this routine. I would say that we watched up to 21 videos. Then went to Johns Creek driving school, and had Jeff as a teacher. He was so funny, and if we weren't paying attention, he would ask a funny question like, "if I was wearing a red shirt, and the traffic light was green, Do I stop?" We would act out what to do in an emergency. He also drew on a board to make us understand more instead of just talking about what to do. He was upbeat, and was a great teacher. If I could do it all over again, A1 might be 100$ less, but Johns Creek Driving School is so worth it. You will actually have more fun and pass the first time.Read Less

Overall we were very glad with Johns Creek Driving School. Our daughter, who had only been driving for a month, has learned so much. Her instructor was Mr. Huey. He was a very good instructor according to our daughter.Read Less

My experience was great! Mrs. Brooks was the greatest teacher for the 30 hour instructional class and made the time fly bye! Mrs. Maggie was one of the best teachers you could have as a driving instructor, she taught me everything i needed to know and didnt move on until i was comfortable. Mrs. Maggie made those 2 hours in the car fly bye! Mr. Ken was a great as he taught me how to drive on the highway. He was always positive and made me feel confident! I will definately recommend this to my friends! Read Less

All my expierences with Johns Creek Driving School were great! Every single one of them! The classes I took were very informative and the teachers were impeccable. Ms. Brooks is the bomb! Maggie Cuello was my driving coach for the 6 hours and she is definitely amazing! I don't think I could have done it without her. She is wonderful with people. She has a great attitude and she is really great to talk to! Wonderful job! I can't wait until my brother goes her for his liscence training. :) Read Less

I am glad I chose Johns Creek Driving School - My Instructor Jeff Franklin was patient and taught well, he understood my needs as a foreigner and worked with me gradually. My 20hr package was definitely my money's worth, and I passed the test in a first go. I also appreciate Ashley and Fernanda's assistance for organizing my driving lesson schedules well. Thank you Jeff. I would recommend this school to all who want to learn defensive driving. Munaza Imamdin Read Less

My instructor made my driving classes really comfortable and relaxing. He also gave me really helpful tips to improve my driving and to pass my driver's test. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to drive. Read Less

I recommend Johns Creek Driving School to anyone who wants to learn how to drive. I am in my 40s and learned how to drive for the first time. Maggie Cuello, my instructor was patience with me. I am glad that is did not holler and scream at me. Again Johns Creek Driving School is the best. Read Less

I definitely would recommend Johns Creek Driving School. My instructor was Maggie and she made it really easy for me to take all my three sessions. I learned a lot and the whole experience made me a lot more comfortable as a driver. You get to do a lot of practicing in all sorts on places and they prepare you very well for the driver's license test. Read Less
