Our experience teaching teens has shown us the importance of the role of the parent/guardian in driver education. They are the teens primary driving educator. Our courses are developed with this in mind. Using course activities and interactive observation time, we involve the parents/guardians in the learning process well before the student ever gets behind the wheel. We also offer products and advice that can help the parents/guardians once they do end up behind the wheel with their students.Our experience teaching seasoned drivers through traffic violator courses has shown us the value of on going communication with other drivers. Simply discussing important safety topics and new laws with other drivers is the first step to continuing our driving education. Through our forums and blogs, we offer this communication in a way that has never been done before. Whether a parent or teen, truck driver or daily commuter, police officer or senior citizen, you can be discussing issues in a fun and exciting way that allows you to learn and help others at the same time. You might even make some new friends while supporting the cause! Remember, a good driver is always learning.

My son completed all three driving sessions with instructor Ken - He was amazing. Each time my son returned from his driving session, someone will ask how his driving session went, and it was always a positive feedback. Nothing negative to say. Ken also took him on the freeway, which was also a positive in my book. I also booked Ken for his DMV driving test.
Yes it cost money, but it was worth it. He passed on his first try for his driving test with only 2 errors (errors were - "don't make too short / wide of a turn" and "don't under steer"). All communications with the driving school was done thru emails only, which I didn't mind. I prefer to keep track of all conversations via email in case I need to reference back to something.
Each driving session that my son completed, I received an email showing what they worked on and how he did. Would I recommend the school? Yes, and definitely book with Ken. Side note - As a parent, I watched where my son drove each time by keeping track of him on my iPhone using the "Find my Friend" app. P.S. - I originally book my son's first 2 hours with another school, didn't get a good feedback. My son didn't feel confident driving with the instructor either. Glad I switch him to another driving school.

This has unfortunately been a very unpleasant experience. We never got the chance w an instructor, because THEY rescheduled our ALREADY scheduled appointment for the third time! (had to wait 2weeks in between each rescheduled appt). This time, they rescheduled AGAIN THE DAY BEFORE We will be getting a refund and going somewhere else! Good luck if you go w THIS SCHOOL!

Steve has been great. He has helped my daughter with her driving. She does good but his recommendations and pointers are something that she listens to and appreciates. I have learned a few things as well. Great job Steve and thanks. Also AllGood has been great with communication on lessons and appointments.

Great driving school! Took 2 lessons overall, first with Chris then a practice drive test with Ryan. Both amazing instructors that will gladly answer any questions you have. I took my first test a couple months ago, about a month after turning 18 and did not pass due to forgetting to look over shoulder and mirror in center lane. So I decided to take 2 lessons near the date of my next test to help me (so I could be more confident and make sure I do everything right). Both lessons were really helpful and I took my test today and passed this time!

AllGood Driving School is amazing! My son Had all 3 lessons with them and they did such a great job teaching him and helping him understand the driving techniques. The instructor also helped us getting him to the correct DMV location and our first location was incorrect. So; he got him to the right location and my son is now a Licensed Driver! CHRIS is AN AMAZING INSTRUCTOR! Thanks for your expertise and wonderful instructors. AllGood = ALLSTAR! Keep up the awesomeness

My son had his first two lessons with Jacqueline, and she was great. She was very calm & extremely nice. She made my son feel comfortable and he enjoyed his lessons. He had his final lesson today with Allen. We were a little apprehensive because of the reviews, but Allen was great. My son enjoyed his lesson with him. Allen gave him a lot of tips to prepare him for his upcoming test, and my son feels fully prepared to take his behind the wheel. Thanks Allen & Jacqueline! Appointments are super easy to make online too!

From the scheduler (Tessa) to the instructors (Ryan and Chris), these people are wonderful. They are very patient, flexible, and communicate clearly. The staff is very professional and personable. They are committed to being safe and it shows. My son felt safe and confident while doing his drivers training. Both Ryan and Chris were great and my son met his goal, which was to get his license. We are truly grateful!

Re: Instructor Allen Perry. DO NOT LET YOUR TEENAGE DAUGHTERS DRIVE WITH HIM. My child had her first lesson with Ken. He was professional, encouraging and a very good teacher. My daughter came back from her first lesson so happy. Her second lesson with Allen Perry was quite the opposite. He was very unprofessional in his stories and statements made throughout their two hour lesson.
He was also not a good instructor, did not give good feedback, didn't have a tablet or go through a checklist during the lesson. I contacted the school immediately. I was told to choose a different instructor for her final lesson and denied a refund or credit. When I went to book her final lesson I found that I've been blocked from their system. And requests for her hours have been ignored. They are punishing us for complaining about the quality of our service with them.

I chose AllGood Driving School for my daughter due to all the great reviews I read and recommendations from friends. Her instructor was Ryan Carpenter. He was really nice and personable which totally put us at ease. When the lesson was over, Ryan explained in detail what my daughter needed to work on and what we had to do next on the path to getting her DL. Scheduling lessons online was super easy and pricing very reasonable.

We used AllGood Driving School to provide behind-the-wheel driving instruction for our daughter, and we could not be more pleased with the service! Prior to instruction day, our daughter was extremely nervous about driving. Her instructor, Barry, was absolutely amazing and patient with her, and a couple hours later, she was a new person filled with confidence in her driving abilities.
She is already looking forward to her next lesson! He also provided her with all of the verbal and written information she will need to know to pass her driving test. We will definitely be using their services for all of our future driver training needs. Thank you!

A really good driving school I can say, my first time I was a little nervous but right away the instructor helped me with my errors and talked to me to make me feel better. Second drive, I went on the freeway, mind you I'm a 16 year old trying to get her license! I had the same instructor but honestly it felt like a normal friend having right by you.
I went on the freeway and was really scared but my instructor helped me by telling me the things I needed most on the freeway. Third time I had a different instructor and well I was nervous again. I honestly felt way better because I knew all the mistakes I needed to do better on. The instructor I had told me I was doing everything correctly. Just the end where I got comfortable started to do bad. either way I really recommend this school if you really need help.

The first lesson went great. Unfortunately, the second one did not. Instructor Ken raised his voice, critiqued and make my son feel unsafe and frazzled in the vehicle to the point that he called a halt to the lesson. I can understand not having a personality match. But the downside is when I called to discuss my concerns and the owner truly didn't seem to care that he'd had a bad experience and quickly defended the instructor without even trying to hear our concerns.
When asked how to remedy the situation (i.e. set an appt with another instructor) she was rude and unaccommodating. I guess the customer doesn't come first with this business.

I used this driving school and while the appointment process was smooth, the driving instructors are extremely unprofessional. I was told before I started driving the car he would speak calmly to me but that didn't happen. He screamed in my ear the entire time for all 3 lessons and made me cry the last lesson. He made me extremely uncomfortable and anxious. CAN NOT STAND THIS DRIVING SCHOOL.
I went through with the three lessons cause I thought why stop now but I wish I would have chosen a different school. They really need to check their instructors cause you shouldn't be screaming at a young girl while it's her first time driving and her first lesson.

It was simple to go online to schedule and pay for my son's behind the wheel drivers training. I needed to reschedule a class and they made it simple and quick. My son's trainer Adriana was absolutely amazing! She was patient, informative, professional and extremely personable! She made me comfortable with her taking my son for his lesson. Adriana put my mind to ease quickly and shared with me in detail what she would be teaching my son each lesson. She took the time to answer all of my questions. Adriana is an absolute asset to All Good Driving School!
