The 60 minute road test prep lesson was super helpful and gave me confidence going into my test. Mike teaches a great parallel parking method that allowed me to nail my parallel park every time. After only one driving lesson, I was able to pass my test.

The lesson was quick and informative. Mike made time fly and was instructed very well. And definitely not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

My daughter & I loved working with the owner and the instructors. They were very flexible with scheduling and went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule. They are very thorough and provide neat tricks and techniques to assist with parallel parking and the k-turn. My daughter nailed both skills after her first lesson. I would highly recommend this school to young drivers seeking to gain the skills and experience needed to successfully pass their road test.

As a parent, at felt at ease because my daughter could use my car, which I had been teaching her in, and that I could ride along during the lesson. Overall-great company and stellar customer service!

After talking with Mike we had our son do his 5hr pre licensing course with suburban driving school. Mike made the class interesting and engaging. Mike also took the time to make sure everyone in the class understood the material he was presenting. We also had our son take a 1hr road lesson 2 weeks before his road test. John was a huge help making sure he knew what would be expected from the road test examiner.

I would highly recommend these road lessons to any new driver, or someone preparing for their road test. We have been so happy with the service and communication we have received that we are all going to take the defensive driving class next so we can take advantage of the insurance savings. THANK YOU MIKE.

Mike was excellent in the pre licensing course and also with lessons. He was extremely patient with my son and he was confident he would pass his drivers test, which he did on first try today! Thank you!

Mike does a great job with the kids, both in teaching them the rules of the road and preparing them for the road test. He also breaks down parallel parking into easy steps for the kids to grasp and master. Both of my kids passed their road tests on their first try.

We found our son's pre-road test lesson very helpful! Thanks to Mike, our son was able to practice and receive constructive feedback during 5 road test simulations. He passed his test today on his first try!

I would recommend Suburban Driving to anyone seeking expert driving instruction. My son took driving lessons with Mike (owner/instructor) and also my whole family took the defensive driving course offered by him. He is professional, patient, and knowledgeable with everyone he instructs. Between winter driving, night driving, and road test preparation, Mike was accommodating and was able to provide expert lessons and advice for all driving situations. I will recommend Suburban driving to everyone I know.

Mike DeMay instructed our daughter in just three lessons and she passed her road test on the first try! He was knowledgable and professional and gave her road test rules and real driving rules. We are very grateful we chose Suburban Driving School!

After calling several other driving schools and being frustrated, we found Mike at Suburban Driving School, and we couldn't have been happier. He was very quick to call us back and was able to set up an appointment for our son right away. He was professional, honest, and very knowledgeable. We loved that both my husband and I were able to ride along in the lesson. We feel very confident about our son taking his road test because of what he took away from his lesson with Mike. We highly recommend Suburban Driving School!

I took the February 15 and 22nd class which i paid $35 for the course at the Perinton Community Center and Michael Demay was our instructor as yet I am still waiting after more than 6 weeks and had not received my certificate to submit to my insurance for the 10% discount. I called to try to get an answer and all I got was a recording about the course dates, fees, etc.

Please advice me as why the long delay with the issuing of the certificate. My friend who took the class from AAA received her certificate the day right the course was given and had it in her hand to take home.
