Review from experience years ago.- disagree with Jim's post * Honestly it's been 8-9 years since I paid for drivers ed as a 15 year old. I paid for a 2 week class plus 3 behind the wheel, i registered with a friend & we talked to him before hand & gave us a great back to school discount, my parents were very happy. My class had 3 others, 4 people total. If you make the experience fun, it will be fun. I can tell that he liked our group because we were actually answering his questions and being attentive. Great videos & discussion with Mr. Abdul, I still remember he was great with explaining driving techniques & safety. He enjoyed our class SO much that he bought us pizza & I think we were actually the only class he did this for because we were so kind to him. At times he can be hard to understand but it's easy if you actually listen. Behind the wheel- he scheduled with me 1 at a time & picked me up. I still remember to this day those experiences! Caution* He has a brake on his side and will stop you in the middle of an intersection to tell you what you're doing wrong... which is fine because I was more in a rush to get out of the intersection (residential neighborhood). Another day he took me to practice downtown early on a Saturday morning, it was perfect for practicing one ways without anyone around. He is so friendly and really wants his students to do well. Funny thing is my significant other and I both took drivers ed with him as kids (a year apart) & we both remember to this day, 9 years later, "smog" for lane changing, do's and don'ts from Abdul! He's a great guy. My younger siblings are of age to practice driving now so I am looking to get them in with Abdul

run by a gay muslim, this man told me he was a driving instructor, but he actually stole my money. He's not even liscenesed to be a teacher. He molested children. Whatever you do, do not go to this driving school. The guy is always on vacation and will never actually teach you. He will try to rape you. He threatened my family. Putting this review up, I'm putting myself in danger, he will take your money.

Hi my name is sue, surely, Midtown driving school is the way to go. I fell my test 4 times by going through other driving school. lucky me I found Midtown, I learn many things not only to pass the road test but the safety feature that allowed me to drive defensively. Before I was a nervous driver that was scared of the road but now I am fearless check it out yourself!

I have disagree with you Jim. He is a great person and instructor. I failed my road test three times before I signed up for Midtown Driving and now because of him I have my license. Before I was a nervous driver that was scared of the road but now I am fearless. At times he can be hard to understand but all you need to is ask him to repeat himself and he'll happily do so. Not to mention he is a very nice and friendly person that wants to see you succeed.

Can I rate less than 1?This is the most unorganized driving school you can find. They offer on-line reservations, however, he will never call or email you back. So when you get annoyed by waiting and decide to call him and ask if he received your message. He tells you that "I don't have my book with me, you need to call back when I am in the office." If you actually get hold of him and take his class. YOU BETTER BE SELF TAUGHT! Because unless you speak extremely broken English, you will not understand a word he says. He takes the entire payment in full up front. Not a big deal, however, he takes 6 months to get back to you about behind the wheel. He does that, because if he can string you alone then he doesn't have to refund your $100. When I set up my "refund" appointment, he was 45 minutes late. It took another 40 minutes to argue whether or not I needed to call the police. Finally, got $100 returned to me after he accused me of only wanting my money back because I am a racist. (I knew he was Muslim before I paid him and I still signed up for class)
