Terrible and very unprofessional.  My daughter had an appointment with this Company on a Wednesday scheduled "by then" via text message 8-10 am.We sat on our steps waiting for the driver who NEVER showed up. When we called them, they said the Driver was with someone else taking a test! How is that possible when we have an appointment for NOW??? With. absolutely NO APOLOGIES we were offered to schedule another appointment. No thank you lady!!! We would still be waiting on the steps if we didn't call you and on top of that...NO ONE APOLOGIZED!!!  Unprofessional at its best. Read Less

I failed my first driver's test over a year ago and had since then felt beyond nervous about trying again. At age 25, I finally decided to schedule my second test at the Lawndale PennDOT. This is when I found out about Ben Driving School and booked a two-hour lesson with Mehdi as well as a one-hour practice right before my test, in addition to renting the school's car -- all at very competitive rates and on a flexible schedule. Mehdi was extremely patient, knowledgeable and helpful as my instructor. His parallel parking technique was spot-on. And what's more, I passed the test! I'm so glad I chose Ben Driving School to prepare for it and wish I had known them the first time around. Highly recommended! Read Less

I passed my test today with the help of Mehdi! He was amazing. I used the school three times, including the day of my test. I used another school once before and had a horrible experience so I was really concerned when making another appointment with another driving school. Mehdi made me feel comfortable, he was patient and tried to explain everything is the tiniest details imaginable. He asked me the very first time what I struggled with and we practiced turning for the whole two hours. He was friendly and professional and I couldn’t have done it without him! I did meet Ben once during a practice and he was also so incredibly sweet. He was very proud that his student had passed. I would recommend them to anybody! They are not always the best with confirming appointments and answering phones or even being anally punctual but it is very worth it in the end! So happy! Read Less

I received my license 2 days ago thanks to Ben Driving School. Took the drivers test and passed on the first try. If you want to learn how to drive correctly and parallel park with 2 simple methods this is the place to go to. I am 32 and I finally have my license! They even set me up with a road test in rapid time! The instructor (Ben) I had was great. He really taught me efficient and correct ways behind the wheel. Complete 3 lessons with them and you get certification to take to your auto insurance company for a 20-35% discount. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks so much! Money well spent! Time to hit the road. Read Less

Ben's driving school is a great place if you want to get license in first attempt and a short period of time, they nicely behaving with professional instructors. To be honest for new refugee like me it was not easy to get the license, But Ben driving school made it possible. I strongly recommend if any body wants to get license please come to Ben High school and get your license with out any tension and wasting to much time. The great behavior, nice and clean cars, professional attitude, fast booking time are the things I liked it. I will call on my other friends to contact Ben High School for further cooperation as I referred my one colleague yesterday. Wish them more Success in future as they are doing fabulous job !!!

By reading the "good reviews " about Ben's driving school, I decided to give them a try . I had Ben as my instructor, and he is a very impatient man ! No patience at all ,just yells at you . You cannot be a teacher without patience ! Especially, when you have a student who never was behind the wheel and nervous. Also very touchy with girls . Seems very nice on the phone , but please don't fall for it . I recommend express driving school or safe driving school ! Read Less

My test was scheduled for 3:45pm, I had just 20 minutes of rehearsal with them and had my test immediately. I came out with flying colours and was given my licence same day. Thanks to Ben.

Their rates are $80 per two hour session , but it was definitely worth it considering that most places in my area close in between 4pm and 6pm.
