I learned some lifelong skills here I wouldn't have learned anywhere else! Mr. Frederick is an amazing teacher as well as roll model. He taught us skills that they do not teach in the public school system and helped me increase my confidence behind the wheel. Read Less

Back when I took the in car driving course, I was met with a very angry Mr Fredrick. Between yelling at me (while not driving), and saying vulgar phrases to the other minor learner in my car, I really didn't enjoy my time there to be honest. Definitely am never going to recommend this driving school to anyone. Read Less

It may be feasible, for blacks to either bleach their skin, or restructure their DNA and wave a wand and become Caucasoid before attending the class. I contacted this academy, and was referred to a gentleman regarding payment. I contacted the gentleman via phone, inquiring of the Academy's hours, conveying to him that I leave work at 4:30 and asked if anyone would be in the office would be there around 4:50-5:00pm so that I could pay them with a check. He said that I could leave the check in the mail slot, of which I did. During the next week, I contacted this academy and the gentleman on several occasions to confirm receipt of the payment. No one answered the phone. Assuming everything was in order, I went to the class, and the gentle and soft spoken gentleman I talked to on the phone was in fact, a verbally abusive and mentally disturbed sociopath with a violent hatred for persons of color. He removed my check from the safe and threw it back to me and told me to "go to the bank and get cash" because he only takes cash. No one in this day and age, particularly, aged and ailing women such as myself, will walk up to an ATM and retract large amounts of cash. It simply is not safe. He regurgitated bona fide lies, spitting and hissing that he told me on the phone he only takes cash, when in fact, HE DID NOT. These hillbillies in this socialist town had better get one fact straight: YOU THUGS DO NOT SET THE CRITERIA FOR WHICH I SHOULD BE JUDGED, AND I CERTAINLY DO NOT ANSWER TO YOU WHEN I DIE. I ANSWER TO GOD, AND YOU SMELLY HICKS, HILLBILLIES AND VIOLENT THUGS WILL NOT CONTROL ME. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE MY INTELLIGENCE. I AM VERY PROACTIVE AND I DO THINGS WITHIN THE CONFINES OF THE LAW. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO REPORT YOUR EARNINGS TO THE IRS, YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN BUSINESS. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU CAN'T PULL THE WOOL OVER MY EYES. THIS IS THE WORST TOWN IN THE USA AND YOU HAVE NO MORALS, SENSE OF INTELLIGENCE, AND WHAT'S WORSE, YOU SMELL LIKE GORILLAS WHO HAVE NOT BATHED IN 1000 YEARS. BUNCH OF DUMB HICKS. Read Less

I received behind-the-wheel training as an adult student, and I was highly impressed with the focus on safety. The quality of the training provided is excellent; it goes way above and beyond the basics of the road skills test. There is also a distinct emphasis on teaching the best available driving techniques, and I really liked that. The instructors are very knowledgable and trustworthy. You can tell they really care about developing responsible young drivers, and they're very good at it. Read Less
