I rented a car from this school to take my driving test and I passed! Martha Ortega helped me book the appointment and it was a great experience!

Do not waste your time and money here. Before booking my lessons, I told Martha very clearly my available hours and asked her if there is availability to take my lessons during those hours and she assured me there is, and so I paid in full for the 6 hour package. After only getting my first 2 hours, I called to schedule the rest and she ghosted me for a whole day, and when she finally answered she said there’s no availability! And when I objected to that, she started being extremely rude telling me what do you want me to do? And saying that It’s my fault I don’t have more availability!! After I reluctantly agreed to her proposed timing, she refused to schedule me and hung up on me!!! I tried calling and texting and she would not answer, she only answered when I told her I’d report her to DMV!

Very much enjoyed my experience with Aery driving. Martha, my instructor was extremely sweet and made sure that I was comfortable in every lesson. Throughout the lessons, she made sure to go very in-depth with everything I would need to do to pass the test. Not once did she scold or get angry over mistakes that I made and rather reassured me that I was doing fine. She is the type of instructor to talk and draw out diagrams including everything you need to do to pass the driving test. Extremely informative, all the tips stick with you on the long run. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a well advised instructor.

Okay so for this driving school I’m very mixed emotions. I liked my teacher Martha but as she barley speaks English I couldn’t understand her fully.

The other girl was very sweet but I had many scheduling issues. I was told a time and they’d be there late or way too early then attempt to charge me for their Mis communication.

Also I got switched instructors without my knowledge which I feel I should’ve been aware of. You should be aware there’s a 72 hour cancellation fee of $20 I believe.

All in all I feel the school didn’t teach me much and I needed them just for my permit to activate. I feel most of my time was purposeless but it worked out because they’re the cheapest prices around and they were very nice.

The extra star is for when I was the dmv and forgot my slip from them they’ met me half way to give it to me (:

Martha is a wonderful driving instructor. She has provided me with the necessary constructive feedback to become a better and safer driver. She is also very understanding and patient. Her motto that “anyone can learn to drive” is also very encouraging and motivating. She emphasizes the idea that anyone can learn to drive. One just needs the will and the practice. Martha will help you a lot throughout your lessons. I definitely recommend her driving lessons to any new drivers and/or to drivers who need a refresher.

I enjoyed my experience. Was nervous but my instructor-was very calming and made me feel comfortabl. Great instructor and made me feel much more relaxed. Teaches very well and makes sure that her students comprehend and practice all techniques. Overall, prepares her students very well.

I had tried learning to drive from my parents and friends but I would always get very nervous and overwhelmed. I had my first lesson today with Martha and the difference was incredible! She was very calm and gave easy to understand instructions. I already feel more confident in driving and look forward to my next lesson!

Horrible experience and customer service!! From the very start, she was very aloof and rude with us, and when it came to taking us for the lesson, she was very offended that we wanted the full 2 hours. She told us she had to wait 5 minutes but the directions were unclear. Unable to be diplomatic with her students.
