When I first heard that the instructor has you drive to Walmart or errands, I paused. Then I thought- that is brilliant! I WANT my child to know how to get in and out of Walmart on a Saturday morning! I told my child to ask him to take you through a drive thru! My child did cry the first day driving- but she needs to know how to drive in ALL types of conditions. THE CLASS ROOM PORTION WAS AMAZING! EVERY W EEK MY CHILD CAME HOME EXCITED AND FULL OF INFORMATION! (I even started using something they taught and it really helped me on a rainy night getting onto 85 in the construction- and they had just changed the lanes) We still have another driving day left- but so far I am very happy!

Haha I love how people are complaining the Reed took them around town doing his errands... He is trying to help you to get the feel for when YOU yourself has to run errands. He may yell a lot, but I personally used to it XD my mom does the same thing... You cant take Reed too seriously or you will end up crying like the majority of my class mates did.. I just laughed it off.. He is a good guy... #favequotefromreed "SHEEE-SSUSSS CHRISTT!!! HOMEGURL!!! WHAT YOU THINK YO' DOIN!?!?!??! DO YOU KNOW WHAT A BRAKE ISSS!?!??!" -Btw if your not used to getting yelled at request Mr. Anthony, he is the other drivers ed teacher. He is super friendly :) Read Less

Angry, loud, and mean old man who does more harm than good in terms of teaching. I would strongly suggest finding a different teacher.

My 15 year old daughter attended drivers ed over the Christmas break.  First they were told they would have everyone on the road in 6 weeks.  After several calls and at 9 weeks she drove.  The classroom portion of the instruction was fine and I feel confident that she learned a foundation for theoretical driving however the driving instruction was horrible.  Her instructor yelled constantly interlaced with profanity and driving instructions that are horrible.  Examples... "no cop, no stop" "turn the damn wheel" "get in that f****** lane" and "the speed limit is just a suggestion, go 10-15mph over".  When she cried, he laughed.  She is not the only student from her school to take private instruction there and all her friends experienced the same treatment during driving component.   The classroom room instructor I felt was more than competent however the man doing the driving instruction is abusive at best.  Buyer Beware!
