Westside Driving School

So grateful to Elliot H. He was very patient and gave useful tips and much needed confidence which helped my spouse pass the road test with flying colors

I found Jen to be extremely unprofessional and concerned with numbers rather than quality. She withheld my sons certificate for 3 weeks after him passing the class. She said was incapable of completing the certificates the week of passing, because she scheduled a vacation. She made him feel extremely uncomfortable during the drives. She is clearly incapable of handling as many students as she had during this session to which she admitted to via email. Dont waste your money with this school. Its not worth the hassle and time or wait

Jen is a bad teacher. 100% wouldnt recommend

Okay, I said I would write this review many moons ago and never got around to it but think about it at least twice a week so here goes nothing. I received lessons from Elliot in late 2021 and early 2022. I received my license in high school, however, never had my own vehicle and then lived in very walkable cities so driving wasnt ever a necessity. Fast forward to a decade later, I was not very comfortable driving so I reached out to Westside Driving School after not being satisfied with another driving school in the area. I was scheduled with Elliot who is very calm, knowledgeable, and encouraging the exact kind of person you want teaching you the rules of the road. I found the driving instruction so incredibly helpful and structured which I prefer. I dont believe the instruction changes for licensed drivers vs. individuals practicing so you start from the bottom and build on that. If I excelled in some aspect, wed move on to the next, so I didnt feel like I was wasting my time on something I already had a handle on. After my first package of lessons concluded, I bought one more. I really attribute this to Elliot being a fantastic teacher who really taught me a lot and built up my confidence on the road. After each lesson we reviewed what I did well and what needed work. I also got notes emailed to me outlining what we practiced, tips and videos on certain maneuvers, etc. I really couldnt recommend Elliot enough!

ZERO STARS DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! I had a horrible experience with Jen L, at Westside driving school. She was very unprofessional and unfriendly like. Driving teachers should be respectful and patient right?? Wrong, not here! When I had my lesson with Jen she treated me like a child. Every five seconds she would take the steering wheel abruptly, not telling me what she was doing. Having bad attitude towards me due to my mistakes I made. SHE literally called my driving sloppy when I was trying to LEARN! She knew I didnt have lots of experience but she continued using rude words towards my driving skills. The whole lesson was a disaster and the outcome was very discouraging and a waste of time. I didnt learn anything from her. She rushed though the whole lesson, not having time for me to fix my mistakes or redo them. Very disappointed in this company. Jen has no fit as a driving teacher. I highly recommend using another driving school. Dont waste any more of your time!.
