My daughter used the school for 3 lessons and 2 retakes of her test. The DMV Representative each time said she was instructed incorrectly on parking. Her coordination was off and she did not pass. At First I thought it was my daughter, however for 2 reps' to say the same thing and she had the same instructor: Cecelia. I took her out everyday as suggested by the owner for at least 15 minutes, it was not her driving. I have a large car so left the parking solely to the school; however the failed to properly teach her according to DMV. Not only did the school take almost $600 out of our pockets, but they are unresponsive, rarely call back or follow up and I am appalled. The owner appeared nice at every interaction, that is the only reason they have 1 star and if I could give negative I would! Read Less

The school hooked me up with a fantastic driving instructor. He helped me with my issues with driving. It is amazing that the instructor allowed me to talk about ideas I had to improve my training alongside what he gave me. Combining all of that and in one try I got my license.Read Less

Experienced and patient instructors helped me learn at my own pace and gain confidence driving. I had major issues parking and driving in busy streets thanks to these guys I can drive with confidence. Ask for Pete when there. You won't regret it. Read Less

My daughter had a great experience at Don-Tre Driving School. They are wonderful people. She completed her 6 hours feeling confident in her driving skills. They took care of everything. Pete was her instructor, he was kind, patient, knowledgeable and always on time. The vehicle was in immaculate condition. She passed and has her license. I would definately recommend Don-Tre!

How dumb do you have to be to hire these guys to learn how to drive? Pretty dumb, I'd imagine, judging from my experience on Friday afternoon, March 21, 2014.I watched as one of its cars, a champagne-colored sedan, a small Nissan, I think, try one risky move after another in the course of a minute. First, at the intersection of Shunpike and Mountain, in Springfield, I watched as this car cut off a bunch of others at the light. Then at Mountain and Hillside, I watched as it tried to make a right-hand turn from the center column, cutting off another bunch of cars. At first, I thought, ha, maybe a precocious, rambunctious driving student. After all, the car had a white plastic "Don Tre driving school" sign on its roof. But no, some pudgy greybeard was at the wheel. There was no one else in the car. Then I thought, maybe he was in a rush for something. Maybe he was just letting out some aggression built up over a previous student. But still, that's no excuse to drive this way.So I say this: If a teacher or employee for Don Tre is willing to drive like this when his car clearly identifies it as belonging to a driving school, how careful do you think they're going to be when they have your precious kid -- or you -- in the car? I hate crazy, erratic drivers. If the teacher drives this badly, do you really want to be enrolling in his school?I leave this here for the benefit of not only the Yelp audience, but the owners of Don Tre as well. I hope to god that was just a wayward employee, just a bad hire, and you get rid of the guy. If it is an owner, well, you should be ashamed of yourselves. Your car is identified as belonging to a driving school, and you're driving like a nutjob! Read Less

The examiner told her she was the only one who had passed that day out of the eight people he tested. Dontre Professional Driving School without a doubt are the best, they know what they're doing. We give them a A+A+A+ You won't regret learning to drive with them. Highly recomend them! Thank you Peter. Read Less
