Northwest Driving School - Las Vegas, Nevada

Great instructors! I mainly had driving lessons with Pedro and he was very kind and patient with me (I had failed the drive test 3x prior before consistently taking lessons from Northwest Driving School). He definitely knew all the drive test routes and took time thoroughly teaching each one of them to me. He was hands-on and gave great advice. I am a slow learner and a very nervous test taker but I managed to pass at DMV Sahara thanks to him! Will definitely recommend NWDS to my relatives here in Vegas.

I had an incredible experience at Northwest Driving School, and it’s all thanks to Frankie! From the very beginning, Frankie made me feel at ease and provided clear, step-by-step instructions that helped me feel confident behind the wheel. Frankie’s patience and professionalism were outstanding. Frankie took the time to tailor each session with patience and time. It was on me to do the work as well I went from knowing absolutely nothing to actually enjoying driving and passing the exam. Zach was with frankie and I on my first lesson so he got to see how much I improved. I had a lesson with him and he’s the one that got me confident enough to go on the freeway. I’ve said this so many times, driving is a mind game and this crew at northwest will help you get over it.

If anyone wants to improve more of their parking then I recommend getting Simone Ranson as a driving instructor. Had an awful start in parking even after multiple lessons but after just a day with her lesson it improved drasticly. If you want extra details in driving thay aren't necessary but would still like to know to be a far better driver then I suggest Pedro Lopez. If you just wanna have a chill time then I suggest Frankie Fopiano but if you want the bare minimum experience to be a good driver then I suggest David Cook.

Note: This are the only 4 instructors that I have had so I am unable to say anything else with them but based on my experience with the 4 instructors this is all I could say, this is just my opinion which may be subjected to criticism so don't take it as a fact.

I had great experience with this driving school. Passed my driving test with 98 points. Dave and Roy, though different in their approaches, both made my lessons very enjoyable. I’d definitely suggest if you are taking more lessons try out different instructors to see who fits you best! 10/10 recommend Northwest Driving

Excellent Driving School with great instructors.
I recently passed my behind-the-wheels driving test with Northwest Driving School and I couldn’t be happier with my learning experience. Special thanks to Ms. Debra for her empathy, patience and support. The school’s approach to teaching is thorough, making one well-prepared for the test and also lots of thanks to Frankie and Roy for making each lesson enjoyable and educational.

Roy is an amazing instructor!!! He focuses on safety while letting you get your feel and come into your own as a driver. He’s a great guide for new drivers, his non judgmental approach helps build confidence.

I wanted to talk about this when these occurrences happened but I was too afraid to. Now, I’m open to sharing my experience here at this driving school. I went here a few months ago with different instructors, some were good, some made it an enjoyable learning experience, and one of them made it completely uneasy for me. This one instructor made it uneasy because at first, it was going smoothly then suddenly I get asked about my age and they automatically went, “Oh you’re legal” which I brushed off because yes, I was 18. Fast forward, they became unprofessional by venting to me about their ex-girlfriend, singing obnoxiously loud in the car, blasting music, and overall, I thought this was weird but I didn’t think too much of it as this was my first instructor and driving lesson ever, however I did not consent to any of this. Later on, we drove by this instructors house, which may not be strange entirely, but at that point, I was fueled with anxiety after all of the previous behaviors. Not to mention, they sounded upset because they told me to ask them questions about themselves. This wasn’t a key concern and my priorities lie elsewhere. After that entire lesson, we parked, he told me to not have kids, and didn’t grade me. This instructors name is Roy Johnson. Despite that first day mess, I had some great instructors! A big thank you to Christopher and Pedro especially! They made me feel safe, they focused on the lesson, and were patient, yet direct.

Being a MD with anxiety of driving, Roy Johnson is one of the best instructors I've ever met. He provided me confidence, and I ended up getting a perfect score on my DMV driving exam. I read the previous comment by Rye which is totally fabrication. I send all my clients who do not have their license to Roy, who has demonstrated professionalism and great passion in love for his desire for you to get your license. I've talked to Roy's daughter and family and learned that he's a great leader, father, and really loves and care for people. All my friends and clients has great experiences with one of the greatest personalities I've ever encountered, especially when it comes to overcoming phobia of driving. I highly recommend him and Northwest Driving school.
