First, the good: the facility is conveniently located, and signing up was pretty easy. That's about where the good ended.
The instructor for my glass was a Yolanda Ford. She was absolutely the most unprofessional instructor I've ever seen. She first started our class by doing this stupid "BAG" exercise, where instead of proceeding with the actual point of the class, she had everyone give examples of things we were grateful for or wanted to brag about. Someone else in the class spoke up and said that they paid $95 for a defensive driving course, not that garbage. A high school classroom scene proceeded, with the instructor cursing and generally acting as if she had never taught a class in her life.
Another person taking the class, who admittedly kept putting his head down, also caused a ruckus that she clearly did not know how to handle. Ugh, high school. High school. High school.
The course was pretty dumb, with tons of typographical errors in the presentation. During breaks, the instructor would play explicit rap/hip hop music (not that I don't listen to it, but that's not appropriate for a classroom). She also told us what will be on the test before we took it. What a waste of time. I mean, I think this whole system is dumb, but at least make some effort into making it seem like we weren't just paying $95 to sit in a classroom to learn nothing.
Hell, why can't I just give them $95 for the certificate at the door and walk out? Nothing about this was meant to make us learn anything.
Then again, if having to deal with this experience is the state's way of making me never speed again, it was actually quite effective. I never want to have to be put into the same room as this instructor ever again. Read Less
