A1 driving school provided a very knowledgeable and professional experience. Hands down the instructor knew and knows her stuff! Keep up the good work A1.

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

I actually really enjoyed my experience and was refreshed on some things as well. I definitely recommend this school. Easy process and clean facility. Read Less

Good instructor, informative class, and the location is easy to find near the old Harry's Farmer's Market. Only one bathroom for everybody, but the classes are small so it's not a big deal. Inexpensive for the discount on your insurance! Definitely recommended for anyone as a review of driving safety, because none of us remembers everything from that driver's permit test 20 years ago. Keep yourself safe! Read Less

I had my driving lessons with Mr. Toney Johnson, and he is awesome! He really helped me a lot especially on how to become a confident driver. He is really patient and very informative. Also, I attended Mr. Kenneth Haley's defensive driving class and it was really good, not boring at all. It was worth all the money and time by getting A1's driving lessons. Read Less

I was dreading taking this class on a Sat. - Mon. when I already work 2 jobs (8AM-5PM) then (6PM to 11PM) Mon. - Fri. The only time I have to myself are the weekends. I am glad to say Dr. Frank Averhart made it an enjoyable experience. Not only did I learn about high risk and low risk behavior and proper choices but I feel I gained some life skills. He was very personable and engaging. He made the class more than about avoiding dangerous behavior but about being successful and goal driven. I can truly say I met someone who cares about people and is not just here for a check. God forbid you ever have to take a DUI class but if you do, here is where you want to go! Read Less
