Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Cupertino Driving School highly enough! I had zero experience and was incredibly nervous when I started my behind-the-wheel classes. My initial instructor, Moon Qin, was calm and patient, helping me build a solid foundation. He eased my nervousness and helped me gain confidence as a new driver. When Moon went on vacation, I switched to Sean Park, who turned out to be an incredible instructor. Sean is very knowledgeable and has a fantastic teaching style. The way he provided tips and feedback were invaluable in preparing me for my test. I learned a lot from him, and it was a pleasure taking classes with him. The customer service representative, Claudia, was very responsive, making it easy to schedule sessions and my behind-the-wheel exam. Thanks to this amazing team, I passed my driving exam on the first try! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test with the service provided by the school. I had a pleasant experience learning to drive with instructor Moon. Despite not being conversational, he gave clear directions, corrected my errors, and demonstrated on how to address them on the paper for a direct visual. Although the school operates mostly virtually ( The office is open once a week ), Claudia, the person to contact for any services or booking appointments, consistently gave a quick response with little wait time.

He rightly pointed out whenever I was going wrong and gave suggestions on how I can improve a certain turn or an action, he exactly knew what DMV is looking for! Positive experience, would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended, Rebecca is really nice!

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing learning experience with Mr. Li. He is truly an outstanding teacher! Not only did he teach me how to drive, but he also helped me understand the theoretical aspects, such as what to check when passing intersections and how to handle unprotected turns. He used visual aids, drawing graphics on paper, which made it so much easier to remember. Thank you, Mr. Li!

Fantastic experience: Very good and very experienced on teaching made me pass my driving test

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Sean Park for being a very chill instructor. Good vibes and very lowkey, helped me on third 2 hr session to practice mock test as Santa Clara DMV.

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience today with Ms. Rebecca for my driving test. She is very professional and punctual. We had a good half an hour practice session around the DMV before the test. Highly recommend Cupertino driving school for behind the wheel test.

Fantastic experience: I practiced with Yanchen Liu just before my test. It was clear he was very experienced with teaching through his promptness, politeness, and knowledge of the ins and outs. Little things such as knowing we didn't have to stand in the dmv line to check-in made a big difference in my experience in the drive test.

Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience with Mr. Li! He was extremely professional and punctual, providing invaluable tips that helped me pass my behind-the-wheel exam on the first attempt.

Fantastic experience: Spent just one hour with Raymond and he put me to speed with how to ace the Behind the Wheel Test. He is excellent communicator and knows the rules to pass the test at his fingertips. Highly recommend Cupertino Driving School for your California drivers license needs.

Fantastic experience: Great driving school with caring and understanding instructors! Thank you so much for helping me in my journey!

Fantastic experience: This is a great place to learn how to drive. Mr Li was very helpful as he helped me prepare and pass my test.

Negative experience: My case is a little different as I've been driving for a while but never learned how to parallel park or back into a driving spot. I booked this place specifically to learn these skills. I had also specifically communicated that I wanted an instructor who was very comfortable teaching this. Unfortunately, the instructor I received seemed like he would be great teaching a beginner how to drive but did not have the confidence or vocabulary to teach me how to parallel park. Kept saying "you just have to use judgement" when asked technical questions/tips. I know English is not his first language but it wasn't nice to hear "you just don't have the sense." Overall I think this might be sufficient for a beginner trying to get their license (which is majority of people) but was an utter waste of my time and money. I emerged with less confidence than I did going in.

Fantastic experience: I passed the drive test at my first attempt. Thanks to Mr. Li for excellent driving lessons.

Fantastic experience: I had my three classes with Mr. Liu. He was great! Whenever I felt doubtful about my driving abilities, he made me feel confident again. I got lots of practice, and passed on the first attempt of the driving test, with the help of Mr Liu. Highly recommend learning from him.

Fantastic experience: Yanchen was an amazing instructor. I passed the exam on my first attempt with him!n

Fantastic experience: Had lessons with Mr. Li to familiarize myself with California driving laws and brush up on basic skills. It was very helpful and I was able to pass in one take. They also managed to get me a much earlier driving test appointment date than what I could find online.

Fantastic experience: I had my lessons with Instructor Li and he gave me a lot of tips that helped me be comfortable on the road and pass my test! If you prefer instructions in Chinese I would also recommend him :D

Fantastic experience: Rebecca was great instructor and the pre-test warm up drive was crucial for my successful passing!

Fantastic experience: I moved from a different country with 2 decades of driving experience and I needed help to brush up on my driving skills wrt CA roads and traffic conditions. We reached out to Cupertino Driving School as I also needed their car during the behind-the-wheel test. I found John Shin, Li and Claudia to be thorough professionals and it was simply easy and rewarding working with them. My driving lesson instructor Li and John Shin had explained and prepped me through every situation, traffic lights/ conditions, etc. We went over multiple scenarios and routed the lessons around the DMV test route so we were thorough for the test. I specifically want to mention John Shin who's guidance right before the test was very helpful as we went through scenarios and traffic rules again which helped me most during the behind the wheel test. Of course none of this is possible if it weren't for Claudia, who did a fantastic job in coordinating and scheduling the appointments. Making my experience hassel free.
