This driving school is terrible. If zero stars were an option this school would get it. Damian, one of the instructors is extremely rude. All of the good reviews are because of a bribe. The instructors bribe the students to write good reviews with 5 stars to get a free drink from Starbucks. In reality it sucks. I managed to get my permit but it did not help to have an instructor who is racist and made me feel very uncomfortable in the classroom setting and also on the road. More so on the road. For example he let a student accidentally blow a stop sign and this didn’t happen once but twice. He didn’t say anything. With me on one occasion I accidentally stopped over the line and he made me pull over so he could yell at me and made me feel very uncomfortable. This made me feel very stressed and more nervous on the road for a new driver. He also smokes, his car reaks with a terrible odor which makes it hard to concentrate. Please do not go to this driving school or if you do get the other instructor Robert, he seemed very down to earth and kind, unlike Damian. I had a terrible experience please don’t believe the other reviews it’s honestly just for the free drink. Rethink your decision if you’ve already enrolled. I promise you it’s worth it. Read Less

My experience at Auto Metro Driving School was great! I missed the first two classes, but was able to be caught up and earned a perfect score on the permit test which I took a mere week later. The class prepares you both in the classroom and on the road which allows you to test both your street and book smarts. In addition, the instructor, Mr. Damian, provided funny personal anecdotes which allowed valuable driving life lessons to be cemented in the students' brains. The friendly environment makes learning how to drive fun and interesting. Read Less

He'll keep telling you at the end of every driving class that you don't listen to his instructions and you're a horrible driver, so that you succumb to the pressure created by him and keep attending the classes even though you are ready for the Road Test.I think the reviews written were manipulated as my experience was totally opposite.

I went to this driving school over six years ago, but I had a good experience.  My instructors name was Damian, and he did a good job preparing me for the written exam, which I scored a 100% on.  I felt comfortable driving under his instruction and learned everything I needed to know to drive an automobile with an automatic transmission.  He was very professional and accommodated driving appointments to my schedule.  He speaks Polish, so if you need a Polish instructor he's a good guy to learn from.  I highly recommend Auto Metro Driving School.

I highly recommend Auto Metro and in particular my driving instructor, Damian Koziel. I had not driven in over 10 years when I began taking lessons with Damian. I was very nervous about starting to drive again but from the very first day he really set me at ease while I was behind the wheel. He has the perfect personality for a driving instructor - even when I made mistakes and he had to correct me on something he did so in a very calm way. I took a total of 5 lessons with him and then I went for my driving test yesterday. I passed with no errors, thanks to Damien! Read Less

Auto Metro school is fantastic and Instructor Robert sir is excellent. I am very scared of car driving. I got trained elsewhere I failed the road test once. I called up Mr.Robert. His training is excellent. I cleared the road test and I did it with 100% perfection which I couldn't belive myself. I am happily going to India to bring my family. I sincerly suggest to take the driving classes from Robert. He has the best qualities. He gets involved in training the student. I saw driving school who teach for money but Robert is very different. I still feel lot to write...just imagize my condition before and understand why I feel to write about him so much after getting the license. Its just like passing on good information to people and take the best driving classes. A big THANK YOU to Robert. Cheers Raj Read Less

I also had a really good experienced with Damien.I haven't drove for over 10 years (living in San Francisco) and before that I only drove in a small town for a couple of years.Damien was a patient and effective teacher. i only needed 4 lessons before passing my test. Yea! I decided to use the school car that I have been practicing for the test and Damien came with me and walked me through the whole thing before hand. It calmed my nerve and was worth the extra bucks not to deal with the DMV alone.Another thing that made him an even better instructor in my eyes is that he doesn't stop teaching you even after you passed your test.That last day, He was still giving me useful advices, tips and encouragements for driving as he drove me and my new license home.Thanks, Damien!

Before taking the classes with Damien, I have never driven in my life (I am 30). I have to tell you it was great, great, and great! Since I was working, I could take driving lessons only on Saturdays. Auto Metro was always able to accommodate me and offer the convenient schedule. I started taking driving lessons on October 6 and yesterday, on November 16, I took the Road Test and passed it on the first try. The tester at the facility didn't even notice any single mistake! Trust me, guys, it was Damien who convinced me to take the exam. I would probably wait for another month or two. :-) So, the School definitely doesn't make you take any unnecessary classes (as I heard they do at some other schools). Besides basic skills, Damien was able to teach me how to parallel park and how to drive on the highways. He is a very pleasant person and a great teacher. He made everything seem very easy, never got upset (you can imagine how I drove at the beginning) or made fun of me. :-) I would absolutely recommend this school to everybody. If you live far from this school and don't have transportation to get there, instructors can come to your house and pick you up. As of now, I feel absolutely comfortable in the Chicago traffic. I am not afraid to drive, and I absolutely enjoy it. My deepest thanks to the Auto Metro Driving School! Read Less

Since there aren't really any driving school reviews on Yelp I thought I'd add mine. I found Auto Metro via Citysearch, the reviews were amazing so I sent them an email. They were literally the only driving school out of 10 that even bothered to reply to my email. Star no 1! Even though I am out of their usual area they took me on as a student, handy since no driving schools actually cover my area. Star no 2! Because I work full time and my husband works occasionally at the weekends it was difficult for me to find time for lessons but my instructor went out of his way, sometimes picking me up at 7am on weekends to fit me in. Star no 3!Despite having reached the grand old age of 29, I've never driven a car in my life (European, never needed to!). Damian, my instructor was extremely patient and explained everything to me as many times as I needed it, and made sure we drove only in areas where the traffic level was within my comfort zone. Star no 4! And I managed to learn with Damian's expert teaching in under 10 lessons, which for me is pretty amazing, and I passed first time. No unneccessary milking of the crap students for unneeded lessons! Star no 5! So if you, like me, are an adult looking for a driving instructor who is going to be patient, flexible and honest, then Damian at Auto Metro is the one for you. If only I knew anyone in this city who didn't know how to drive, I'd recommend him to all of them. So my friends at Yelp get the pleasure instead. Enjoy! Read Less

I recently got my Driving License after taking driving lessons from this school. I had a very good experience with them. I hadn't driven much before but I feel pretty confident now. My instructor was punctual on every occasion and always emphasized on the right driving technique. Most importantly, more than teaching to merely pass the test, I was taught to cultivate safe driving habits. If you are located in the Chicago city area, their location is not very convenient and you'd have to plan your time very well. Not cheap, but you'll get your money's worth. Read Less

In addition, the instructor, Mr. Damian, provided funny personal anecdotes which allowed valuable driving life lessons to be cemented in the students' brains. The friendly environment makes learning how to drive fun and interesting. Read Less

My brothers and I had the best experience here! My oldest brother had such a great experience that I had joined a few years later and then the following year so did my youngest brother. Speaking for my brothers and myself, we really are thankful for our instructor, Damian, for all his help on teaching us all the rules of the road and how to be responsible and safe drivers. I recommend everyone to take classes at Auto Metro Driving School. Read Less

I'm giving One Star only 'cos it's mandatory on Yelp! Honestly ...Please don't go for Auto Metro Driving. The only agenda is to mint money. The schedules are always as per the instructor Robert. He's very shrewd and rude. He'll keep telling you at the end of every driving class that you don't listen to his instructions and you're a horrible driver, so that you succumb to the pressure created by him and keep attending the classes even though you are ready for the Road Test.I think the reviews written were manipulated as my experience was totally opposite.

I went to this driving school over six years ago, but I had a good experience.  My instructors name was Damian, and he did a good job preparing me for the written exam, which I scored a 100% on.  I felt comfortable driving under his instruction and learned everything I needed to know to drive an automobile with an automatic transmission.  He was very professional and accommodated driving appointments to my schedule.  He speaks Polish, so if you need a Polish instructor he's a good guy to learn from.  I highly recommend Auto Metro Driving School.

I highly recommend Auto Metro and in particular my driving instructor, Damian Koziel. I had not driven in over 10 years when I began taking lessons with Damian. I was very nervous about starting to drive again but from the very first day he really set me at ease while I was behind the wheel. He has the perfect personality for a driving instructor - even when I made mistakes and he had to correct me on something he did so in a very calm way. I took a total of 5 lessons with him and then I went for my driving test yesterday. I passed with no errors, thanks to Damien! Read Less

Auto Metro school is fantastic and Instructor Robert sir is excellent. I am very scared of car driving. I got trained elsewhere I failed the road test once. I called up Mr.Robert. His training is excellent. I cleared the road test and I did it with 100% perfection which I couldn't belive myself. I am happily going to India to bring my family. I sincerly suggest to take the driving classes from Robert. He has the best qualities. He gets involved in training the student. I saw driving school who teach for money but Robert is very different. I still feel lot to write...just imagize my condition before and understand why I feel to write about him so much after getting the license. Its just like passing on good information to people and take the best driving classes. A big THANK YOU to Robert. Cheers Raj Read Less

I also had a really good experienced with Damien.I haven't drove for over 10 years (living in San Francisco) and before that I only drove in a small town for a couple of years.Damien was a patient and effective teacher. i only needed 4 lessons before passing my test. Yea! I decided to use the school car that I have been practicing for the test and Damien came with me and walked me through the whole thing before hand. It calmed my nerve and was worth the extra bucks not to deal with the DMV alone.Another thing that made him an even better instructor in my eyes is that he doesn't stop teaching you even after you passed your test.That last day, He was still giving me useful advices, tips and encouragements for driving as he drove me and my new license home.Thanks, Damien!

Before taking the classes with Damien, I have never driven in my life (I am 30). I have to tell you it was great, great, and great! Since I was working, I could take driving lessons only on Saturdays. Auto Metro was always able to accommodate me and offer the convenient schedule. I started taking driving lessons on October 6 and yesterday, on November 16, I took the Road Test and passed it on the first try. The tester at the facility didn't even notice any single mistake! Trust me, guys, it was Damien who convinced me to take the exam. I would probably wait for another month or two. :-) So, the School definitely doesn't make you take any unnecessary classes (as I heard they do at some other schools). Besides basic skills, Damien was able to teach me how to parallel park and how to drive on the highways. He is a very pleasant person and a great teacher. He made everything seem very easy, never got upset (you can imagine how I drove at the beginning) or made fun of me. :-) I would absolutely recommend this school to everybody. If you live far from this school and don't have transportation to get there, instructors can come to your house and pick you up. As of now, I feel absolutely comfortable in the Chicago traffic. I am not afraid to drive, and I absolutely enjoy it. My deepest thanks to the Auto Metro Driving School! Read Less

Since there aren't really any driving school reviews on Yelp I thought I'd add mine. I found Auto Metro via Citysearch, the reviews were amazing so I sent them an email. They were literally the only driving school out of 10 that even bothered to reply to my email. Star no 1! Even though I am out of their usual area they took me on as a student, handy since no driving schools actually cover my area. Star no 2! Because I work full time and my husband works occasionally at the weekends it was difficult for me to find time for lessons but my instructor went out of his way, sometimes picking me up at 7am on weekends to fit me in. Star no 3!Despite having reached the grand old age of 29, I've never driven a car in my life (European, never needed to!). Damian, my instructor was extremely patient and explained everything to me as many times as I needed it, and made sure we drove only in areas where the traffic level was within my comfort zone. Star no 4! And I managed to learn with Damian's expert teaching in under 10 lessons, which for me is pretty amazing, and I passed first time. No unneccessary milking of the crap students for unneeded lessons! Star no 5! So if you, like me, are an adult looking for a driving instructor who is going to be patient, flexible and honest, then Damian at Auto Metro is the one for you. If only I knew anyone in this city who didn't know how to drive, I'd recommend him to all of them. So my friends at Yelp get the pleasure instead. Enjoy! Read Less

I recently got my Driving License after taking driving lessons from this school. I had a very good experience with them. I hadn't driven much before but I feel pretty confident now. My instructor was punctual on every occasion and always emphasized on the right driving technique. Most importantly, more than teaching to merely pass the test, I was taught to cultivate safe driving habits. If you are located in the Chicago city area, their location is not very convenient and you'd have to plan your time very well. Not cheap, but you'll get your money's worth. Read Less
