Toro Trucking Academy -- Tacoma: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Amazing school! Great teachers and staff and they made it really easy to learn and pass my cdl!
Fantastic experience: Great experience, excellent learning environment!! Instructors are on point with teaching and drives!!
Fantastic experience: Excellent learning environment. All the faculty and staff were professional and went out of their way to ensure I was prepared for the state exam. I earned my CDL all in one go! It was an amazing experience going from the academy training yard to the state skills test yard feeling confident in what I had been taught. My peers and I were all successful in passing the test. 100% from the contributions and dedication from our instructors. Alan, Aaron, Vlad, and Rob were all confident in what they were teaching and gave us the tools we needed to be successful.
Fantastic experience: I’d like to give thanks to all the instructors at Toro Trucking, Vladimir, Aaron, Allen and Rob. Also reception Michelle for her patience with all the questions and setting up drive times with the state. Every instructor added to the experience and overall I’m very happy with the experience and am happy to have received my CDL class A!
Fantastic experience: I want to give a shout-out to Toro Trucking Academy for having me as a student. Big Rob was such a great mentor to hone my skills and made it possible to pass my tests with flying colors. To my knowledge, I was the top student to come from the academy. The staff are friendly and willing to work with you in areas that might be difficult for you. I will recommend future students to go here. You'll know it is the troublemaker passing by when I honk 3 times. COME ON!!!!
Fantastic experience: Rob is an amazing teacher! He gave us the opportunity to really be successful and understand what it takes. Jett Vlad and Allan were always available and the reason why I’m holding my CDL! I AND DONE!!!!!!! Love the Toro crew!!!!
Fantastic experience: If you are wanting to get your CDL come here to toro! It is an awesome school, everyone there is down to earth and want to see you succeed in getting your CDL. My experience was 10/10 and enjoyed the month I was there. Just don’t be late
Fantastic experience: The office staff is very friendly, informative and quickly gives you everything you need to start the academy smoothly. The instructors are also very knowledgeable and more than willing to help with every step of the schooling process. They are also willing to give extra attention when and where it may be needed. It does get repetitive, however in this case that is a really good thing! You will be taught, step by step the correct way to pass the DOT test and get your license. Whether you're interested in Class A or Class B, you will be in great hands.
Thanks for the thoughtful review Sean. Good luck out there on the road!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this school super friendly instructor. They make it so simple and straightforward that’s helps you pass quick! Lots of practice and drives to make sure you are ready as well!
Fantastic experience: One of the few CDL school that accepted Gi-Bill(The ONLY ONE in the area at the time). It was a grind/stressful & full of doubts the whole 4 weeks(especially for some one with 0 knowledge & has never even been inside a truck) but I guess that's what made it all worth it in the end as a 1 & done Class A student. Pros: The Tacoma campus currently has a very good team of staff(Rob, Michelle, Vlad, Allen, Arran). Everyone is willing to help out when any student needs it but do keep in mind the student effort is first; you get what you put in... Come to this school if you are determined & not afraid to push yourself to be better than last-time/yesterday & you will succeed with the current crew here. All staff & instructors actually take pride when a student passes & I feel their effort... Cons: Need Hazmat support. Summary: Great school with Excellent staff & instructors that genuienly cares about students progress(do come with real effort of trying hard though). Very high pass ratio here at 70-80% on average I think(?) Which speaks or is evident of how good the current school staffs are here.
Congratulations on your CDL! Be safe out there!
Fantastic experience: Recently got my Class A with Toro, couldn’t recommend a better school to go to. They know what they are doing and are very helpful. Huge thanks to my instructor Arran specifically as he broke everything down into very digestible chunks and made it incredibly easy to learn and understand. Thanks again to all the instructors and I’ll make sure to honk anytime I pass. Highly recommend! Remember your 3 important air checks!
Congratulation David! We'll listen for your honks! Be safe out there.
Fantastic experience: Amazing school to get your CDL!! Was able to pass my Skills test in one attempt thanks to the knowledge of all the instructors! Everyone is super nice, and willing to help you!
Way to go Chance! See you out on the road. Good luck!
Fantastic experience: I’m proud to be a graduate of Toro Trucking Academy. I was part of a class with a very high “one and done” success rate and this all stems from the top notch instruction given from day one. With a Class A CDL in hand, I now feel I have the skills to pay the bills. Much thanks to Rob and his awesome crew of instructors, Vlad, Allen, Arran and the incomparable administrator, Michelle. You all whipped me into to shape to embark on a new career path.
Thanks for the kind words Mauro. Great effort and success earning your CDL. Be safe out there!
Fantastic experience: All of the staff was very helpful from Michelle at sign up to the last sign out , and all the instructors where very informative and great at their jobs. Big shout out to Rob, Vlad, Allan, and Arron also to Rick for the first week. Great atmosphere and positive vibes. Thank You to the entire staff . . . Dave Palm
Thanks Dave! Good luck to you and drive safe out there!
Fantastic experience: The instructors at this school put their 110% effort into insuring you can be as ready as possible to go take your tests as well as prepare you for the real world. Enjoyed this school and the people so much I want to upgrade my employer supplied Class B to a Class A. Cannot recommend this place enough
Hi Dustin. Congratulations on your Class A!! Thanks for the kudos, and be safe out there!
Fantastic experience: Toro is the best!! I had a wonderful experience here and am proud to be a "1 and done" with my Class A and Hazmat. Rick, Rob, Jeff, Vlad, and Steve are all fantastic and will make sure you're prepared for your test. If you're willing to put in the work, study and practice with your classmates, and learn as much as you can from your instructors, then you'll do great! Michelle in the office was also amazing and so kind. I could not recommend them more!
Thanks for the kind words Alicia! Be safe out there on the road and good luck to your bright future as a professional driver!
Fantastic experience: Great place to learn and get your CDL!!!…Instructors are kind, patient and wants you to pass, fun learning games, always fun, relaxing stress free school. Their team from owner to front desk to instructor are really there for you to learn and get your CDL and they have trucking company come over and talk about CDL jobs. Thank you team TORO!!!
Great having you in class Dexter! Drive safe out there!
Fantastic experience: Toro trucking is a school with a couple of small classrooms on a lot near the 512 freeway in Tacoma. Looks simple and not much when you pull up. This couldn’t be more of a “Book by its cover” situation. The two weeks I spent with Rick, Rob, Vlad, Steve and the other instructors was amazing. Michelle in the office is a sweetheart. If you do plan on getting your CDL class A or B don’t hesitate to enroll here. You will not be disappointed. If you let the processes work then you will make friends with your classmates and teachers. 5 stars ⭐️ . 5 more if I could. Thank you Tacoma Campus. A thousands times Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Toro upgrading from my Class B to a Class A. Rick has a great crew there! Rob was amazing with getting the pre trip down. All the other instructors were very helpful! The ladies in the office were great as well. They were always a step ahead of everything. I would definitely recommend Toro!!
Thanks for the kind words Alyssa. Good luck in the BIG RIGS!!
Fantastic experience: Thank you Everyone at Toro Trucking In Tacoma for all you do! If you want your CDL Toro is the program for you. They want everyone to succeed, If you give them 100% everyone there gives you 1000% and work hard to make sure you know everything you need to know. My One and done wouldn’t have been a thing if it wasn’t for everyone there that took the time to teach and love what they do! Thank you again! I’ll make sure to blow my air horn every time i pass the 512!
Fantastic experience: They really earn their pay there. Great crew of instructors. Thanks guys
Fantastic experience: Excellent group of instructors at this school. Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. Special shout out to Rob and Rick. These guys go above and beyond to ensure you have all the tools necessary to be successful. Highly recommend this company to friends and family. Also Michele at the front desk. She works hard for all the students to ensure they have all the document they need to pass. Great team here at Toro
Thanks for the kind words Nick. Good luck in your new career as a Professional Driver!
Fantastic experience: Best decision I ever made coming here! If you're considering getting your CDL this is the place to go. ROB was an excellent instructor, proud to say I got one of the best scores on my test because of him! Everyone here is great from the office to the classroom to learning how to inspect the trucks, backing and how to drive!
Negative experience: Absolute joke of a school. Instructor's don't even keep up with their medical cards. There is no bathroom or running water but at least the school provides #1 Porta potty for each gender.... Class sizes are 20-30 students to 3 instructors, if the instructors can work. If your workplace is looking for a cdl school to enroll you in advise them to look elsewhere. Spend $5000 somewhere you can learn to drive a properly maintained rig
Fantastic experience: I recommend Toro trucking is the best school ..if anyone of you wants a good training go to Toro. The instructor are friendly kind they train you to there best of knowledge makes you understand very quickly an they put a hard on you in other just for you to get your cdl. Toro is the best school am happy that i learn a lot of things in toro driving truck..
Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly and helpful. They are from many backgrounds with so much combined experience. You can learn about trucking life, your important pre-trip inspections, get coached to master backing techniques and recover from attempts to ultimately put a truck in the lane safely. You’ll get experiences on the road for city drives and some highway drives so you can get a comfortable feel for the vehicles. All of this and personal study, really helps on the day of the practical exam for the state. I really enjoyed my experiences with this team and I would recommend them to anyone interested.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at this school. I came to learn and get an opportunity to a new career path. The instructors there want to teach you and help you. Craig, Rob, Steve, Vlad and Rich. Thank you to all of you!!
Fantastic experience: Good place. Office personnel Mariana and Michelle are the best! Instructors Steve, Rob, Vlad.. are awesome!
Roman - thank you! It was a pleasure to have you at our school. Congratulations and best of luck to you. Stop by and say hello. Toro Trucking Academy.
Fantastic experience: Toro Trucking Academy was professional from the start and the pricing is very fair compared to other schools. The structure of the program is organized throughout. They start you off so that it isn't overwhelming, feeding you small amounts of information to learn at first then adding to it as you go so that your learning bits and pieces at a time until one day you have it all memorized for the final test with the examiner on your drive test. Of course you get out of it what you put into it. The instructors were patient, knowledgeable, care about the students and really do care whether or not you pass your knowledge and drive test. Craig, Steve, Rob and Vlad are all GREAT GUYS. Of course we can't leave out the gals in the office who are always courteous, happy and smiling. I would choose Toro Trucking Academy again for any of my CDL needs and if I could I would give them a bazillion stars . I can't say enough about how GREAT they are. They really are AWESOME I passed my CDL A drive test the first time. One and done baby!!!
RJ - thank you for the review. It was a pleasure to have you at our school. Congratulations again and best of luck. Keep on rollin. Toro Trucking Academy
Fantastic experience: Awesome school!! Passed my CDL skills test first try, instructors are Cool Af and Make sure you understand everything they teach for you to pass the first time! One thing that I wish they did more was more city drives , I was only taken out 4 times total while I was there 2 weeks. Other than that I will be coming back to upgrade to my class A CDL when I have the time and money for it !! Thank you toro trucking academy!!
Positive experience: Я завершил курс CDL Class A в этой школе в июне 2022 года. В целом я могу рекомендовать эту школу. Есть русскоговорящие менеджер и инструктор
Fantastic experience: Great team of instructors very informative. And the office staff was always on top of getting to you what you need to succeed. Thank you guys!
Fantastic experience: Loved being a student here. Mariana and Michelle were great ladies at the office, helped me with any question I had. The instructors Steve,Rob and Vlad were great and taught us what we needed to do. I love place and would greatly recommend this school to all new students who wants to get their Cdl training.

Fantastic experience: This school is a awesome school to go to. The instructors are very nice and most importantly they care about you as a student and work hard to make sure you succeed. Thank you pnw/toro
Fantastic experience: Awesome school. Management and instructors (Steve, Dale and Matt) are exceptional, knowledgeable and they go above and beyond to make sure that I received all the skills necessary to pass the DOT test and be ready for employment. Highly recommend the school.
Kevin, thanks for choosing our school for your training. We wish you the very best of success!!!
Fantastic experience: Just passed my test for my CDL. This school was awesome. I feel the reason I did so well on the In cab and pre trip was from the classes I took at pacific. Dale was really helpful he took time to help me personally. The other guys where awesome also , Matt, Steve, Henry, Vlad. The women in the office were also very accommodating. Kitty helped me tremendously with the paper work and sign up. The young lady Mariana was always available to answer any questions and she has a cool accent. I would highly recommend this school.
Fantastic experience: Amazing school. Great instructors. I can't thank Steve, Dale, Vlad and Henry enough for the help they gave throughout the course. Was able to complete my test 1 and done
Fantastic experience: I got my CDL through Pacific NW Professional Driving School in Tacoma. I got the Best training from their staff, Manager Henry as well as all of the instructors Steve, Dale, Vlad and Matt. I also passed my skills test on the first time!!! The office staff was also awesome Mariana and Kitty thanks for all of your help also. I highly recommend this School to anyone who is interested in getting their CDL!!!
Negative experience: Some of the staff are great and the school has a high CDL test pass rate. However, the instructors with the most authority and influence over trainees have a serious lack of discipline, professionalism and structure. This is not a school, it is a training program and that's a bad thing in this case. You are not being encouraged to learn and excel, or being taught how to be a professional driver, you are being trained to pass the CDL test and will be reprimanded if you want to flourish in your learning of the subject. You will be expected to participate in their idea of "trucker culture" which includes active perpetuation and encouragement of vulgar language and behavior. You will not be allowed to learn your own way, even if you are getting it all right. You cannot negotiate with them to focus on what you need, you must do their program their way on their schedule, even though they could easily flexibly accommodate individual needs. I walked in with a positive attitude, patience, commitment to learning, and a reasonable amount of tolerance and reasonable expectations, but this was a dead-end because the staff were by and large wrong and backwards.
Fantastic experience: The school was a great experience for me! Henry is a great manager and got me a job with a fuel company after graduating. Steve, Dale, Matt and Vladimir are very focused on teaching and will work with you if you are struggling with the course. Marianna and Kitty are truly a great asset to the administration side and are very professional. Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: After Ramin enjoy the company we learned from scratch to professional drivers thank you for all Most structures also friendly and like family
Fantastic experience: Хорошая школа, приятный и дружелюбный персонал. Отдельная благодарность Марианне за помощь, инструктор Владимир за то что занимался и помогал не просто выучить, но и понять. Спасибо.
Fantastic experience: I would like to let everyone know how professional Pacific Northwest Professional Driving School is I came to the school to get my CDL and they were nothing but courteous professional and provided a safe training environment for me I thank them so much if you are interested in getting your CDL I highly recommend this school Pacific Northwest Professional Driving School have a fantastic day
Negative experience: Attended school not enough drive time or instructors to adequately teach material. First week wasted on power points instead of using it to learn in cab and out cab material. The school manager is hostile and does his best to bully you through class, for he's preparing for next months class with no regard to the invested student already present. There are great instructors there yet management is questionable. Would go on my 20 minute drive time twice a week, rest backing practice and in out cab with no direction. I addressed these issues to school management and expressed my wish to withdraw. I was then offered more drive time to say and finish. I had enough of the cajoling of the manager so I was sent this because I would not conform. Per our conversation today 12/18/2020, you decided to withdraw from the program. Your time sheets show that you have completed 80.25h and based on the Contract you are not qualifying for a Refund. Class is supposed to be 160hrs and I didn't qualify for a refund. Every day they have you sign in for 8 hrs even if you are not there for whole time I wonder how much i was charged for when I was not there.
Positive experience: In school now last week of school. Kinda concerned only have had less than a hour city driving and backing time your lucky to get one shot at all 3 backing tests . Meanwhile you are supposed to fill out time sheet that states 2 hours of backing
Fantastic experience: Great school got a class A license and a job three weeks later
Fantastic experience: Definitely the way to go if you’re looking to get your CDL. I went as a part time student. The staff was great about being flexible with me, and my work schedule. The curriculum is engineered towards giving you more than just a passing DOL test, and I’ve already benefited from the knowledge. 5/5!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend this school. All aspects were great from the ladies in the office to the instructors and Henry. They gave me all the tools to succeed.
Fantastic experience: Great School and great staff. There instructors are on top of helping you and making sure you fully understand everything you need to become a successful truck driver.
Fantastic experience: This is a Great CDL training School for anyone who wants to be a professional truck driver. I highly recommend this school!!! John K
Fantastic experience: The best CDL School in Washington!! They provide awesome customer services and 10+ training!! Check it out!! Exited for my new Career and oportunities!
Fantastic experience: A huge shout out Pacific NW Professional Driving. This place is so amazing, Christine, Mariana, Henry, Casandra, Dwayne, Omar, Steve, Vlad, , and Angel thank you so much!!! All the instructors are super nice and accommodating. They work with you in any way they can to help you reach your goal. They have patience and multiple teaching techniques that will guarantee a good learning experience. This place is so good that I got hired a week prior to me passing my state test. Their success rate is off the chart and their online classes are extremely user-friendly. Before you even think about checking any other school out check these guys out 1st, I highly recommend it. I've never driven a manual in my entire life and in four weeks they got me driving like a professional. Out of five stars I give these guys 15. Truly Blessed thank you again for giving me the opportunity to open up new doors I need a new career to support my family ❤
Fantastic experience: I am so glad I chose this school to get my CDL. I appreciate that each instructor was very knowledgeable, and took the time to help you one on one with things you may be struggling with. They'll make sure you are totally ready for the test before you take it. All the staff was very supportive during my time there. I did not take advantage of their job placement program, but I saw it work out well for other students.
Fantastic experience: Also passed my CDL first time. It seems hard at first, as long as you want this. Just listen and learn. It was fun.
Positive experience: Staff is super friendly and the instructors are very helpful and knowledgeable. The cost wasn't bad it was a little under 5k but that dosnt included the fees at the dmv and for your test.The only issues i really have with this school was that there was no curriculum they just handed us a packet and said memorize it. Secondly after I graduated I tryed finding jobs on my own and hit a dead end so used the number and emails I had to get in contact with the schools counselor is what I assume his job title was he told us to come to him with help finding jobs well I never was contacted after I called and left a voicemail and text along with a email that I sent to the office I was able to find a local job no thanks to the school even though they market themselves on having a job placement assistance. Overall I loved the experience while there fun people but they just needed to make things a little smoother in the teaching process and actually do what they advertise for job assistance.
Fantastic experience: Great School!! After receiving my CDL from PNW Driving School it opened up so many doors for me!! Best Investment I've made.
Positive experience: Do you guys know if this guys do hazmat training course I’m trying to get hazmat training
Fantastic experience: This school is top notch. All the instructors are so knowledgeable, and make time for 1 on 1 teaching. I even left there with a high paying job that there counselor Angel help me get after hours on the weekend. Thank you Pacific NW professional driving for changing my life.
Bryce--congratulations on everything! We're very proud of you--and thanks for the good words!
Fantastic experience: This school is absolutely one of the best to go to in my opinion, they work with you and teach you in the way you want to learn, they dont hover if you dont want them too, the staff is extremely friendly and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Angel Suarez is the student counselor and he goes above and beyond to make sure any student is ready to test, he took time out of his weekend to meet up with me to work on my upshifting, downshifting and driving with no issue early in the morning at no extra charge, he wanted to see me pass. He also goes out of his way to help you find a job after you afterwords not only when you pass but when you graduate and get a job if that job doesn't pan out you can give him a call and he will give you all the info you need to find something else. Dwayne Sullivan is one of the best instructors there extremely friendly he will also go above and beyond to help you out to make sure you pass, any questions you have any issues with learning he will go out of his way to help you, he knows exactly what the examiners are looking for come testing day, and if he says you're ready to test then you are definitely ready. Everyone there wants to see you succeed, they know your spending money to go to their school and they want to help you anyway they can. Thank you pnwcdl school you have changed my life for the better.
David, thank you so much for the kind words -- best of luck with your new career!
Negative experience: Cunning. Took up my money, I did about 3 days of less than 20 miles of driving...then my priorities changed and I had to drop out. They could not refund...I pressed them and all they could do is return a mere $200. If you want honesty...go to CDS Lakewood, not PNW CDL.
Fantastic experience: Excellent staff and very helpful. Thank you Dwayne, Steve, Henry, and Matt for ensuring I received the proper training. I'm especially thankful to Angel for fulfilling his promise of finding my wife and I work afterwards. Thank you to the office staff as well. Although the course can be tough, I think this school truly cares about our success. Thank you, Josh Reichert...
Hi, Joshua, We're really glad you had a great experience!
Fantastic experience: Good knowledgeable and friendly staff. Its a guarantee success with this school. The instructors especially Dwayne Sullivan don't give up until they are sure you get every detail about the truck. Ask for Dwayne Sullivan he will assist you in pre trip.
Fantastic experience: Everyone at this school is very knowledgable and helpful, I couldn't have gotten my CDL without them. Dwane was very helpful and smart. These guys are really good and i highly recommend this school.
Congrats! Thanks for your kind words!
Fantastic experience: This is the best place I know,all the staffs are so kind, PROFESSIONAL, friendly and they work around the clock to see you succeed. It's a place I'd recommend, every one to go.
Hi, Laban, thank you so much for sharing your positive experience with us.
Fantastic experience: I had very good experience with this school . They train very well and they guide very friendly in your problems . I m very happy i take my CDL license and make many good friends in school.
Hi, Navdeep, thanks for the good words for us. I'll let everyone know you had a great experience.
Fantastic experience: First I want to say thank you to PACIFIC NW PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL; for one of life changing experiences. To Doina in the Kent location, Thank you for being a friend, positive motivation for me, you keep me grounded and pushing forwards my goal. Omar- Instructor, words escape much gratitude and appreciation I have for you the time you took out with me; both in a group and one-one, to help me over come my fear of downshifting and handling that truck. You have the patiences of a saint. I will never forget our first bobtailing experience, how calm you stayed and how panic I was. LOL. If Omar can't teach you to drive a manual than you may just stick to automatic, his amazing and patience man. Thank you Omar. Now for the rest of the staff in the Kent WA location, thank you so much for being so caring and motivating. Although I only pointed two of your staff who has truly impacted my life each one of you gave me a different experiences I will keep with me forever. We family now. Thank you for the amazing experience. Officially CDL A manual holder. Teresa Jimenez ❤❤❤❤

Fantastic experience: Passed my class A test on my first try after completing the 4 week course. The instructors are very knowledgeable and patient with you while your learning to drive.

Fantastic experience: Very very good staff ...
Thank you
Fantastic experience: The best school in USA! Armen is the best instructor!!!!
Thank you Anatolii
Fantastic experience: I have just completed my CDL training at PNW Professional Driving. As with everything, you will get out of it what you put into it. Many students come in late, take long lunches, and/or leave early. Study hard, come for all of the hours available, and you will pass. That said, driving a combination vehicle is not for everybody. This school gives you all the tools you need to succeed. Use those tools and you will do great. Thank you, to all the employees at PNW. Maybe I’ll see you again some day on the road.
Thank you Joseph, You where are great student! Enjoy your new career! Drive safe.
Fantastic experience: This the Best CDL School in Washington!!!! If you want to get your CDL go here. Thank you so much Henry, and everyone who helped me at the School!!!
Fantastic experience: I just got my CDL from this school. They are the Best!!!!
Great news!
Fantastic experience: Thank you so much team Pacific, school it was realy good to been with you. I can’t explain how much you showed me that you were my side from day one I started the school to the last day until I got my CDL, I really appreciate it that good things you guys to helped me.
Thanks, Abdifatah -- hope everything is going well for you.
Fantastic experience: I studied at this school as a truck driver; this school greeted me with a good friendly team and spoke many languages in English, Russian, Spanish, Moldavian, Ukrainian, Indian and many others you can be trained both on an automatic gearbox and on a mechanical one. I chose a mechanical , the price of tuition was excellent for me now I work as a driver and I don’t regret that I went to this school and referred my friends. I would recommend this school to anyone learning to be a driver.
Music to our ears, Tatyana -- hope you're doing well!
Fantastic experience: Great instructors! Very knowledgeable! Thanks Henry for giving me all the information to get me started. Passed my test on the first try! Thanks everybody!
Great news, Dustin! Thanks!
Fantastic experience: The school has well trained and qualified personnel.Henry lee,Dwayne,marianna and other staff are there to support you while in school.There are more than enough good trucks to train with.
Thank you for the kind words, morris.
Fantastic experience: Great school with great instructors
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: I just passed my test today on a 6 speed. The school was a good choice for me. The best instructors are Charles, Eli, Armen and Vlad. I’ve never driven a manual and they gave me the courage to do it. Go to school early put your name on the list to do backing and the city drive. Study the pre trip everyday all day. And the most important thing is to LISTEN to the instructor and pay attention. Don’t try to be a professional truck driver that’s been driving for 20 years while your in school. They will work with you and help you until you pass.
Thank you for your kind words, Chae.

Yakov Panfilov, Thank you for your feed back. It was nice to meet you drive safe out there!
Fantastic experience: Best Truck Driving School i have ever been too. If you work and don't think you have the time to get your CDL, this is a great place to go. They will really work with your schedule, and help you out.
Fantastic experience: 5 stars ain't high enough. These guys are awesome. They're kind, understanding & they are very flexible with how often or how long you can attend school each day. I work nights & they allowed me to learn when I could. They worked with my schedule. They also really invest into their students. They genuinely want everyone to learn correctly & pass. Very patient & professional. All seem constantly possitive. Not only that, now that I have my CDL I can still come in & continue to learn or get more driving experience at no extra cost. They also speak multiple languages if that's important to you.
Thank you Kenny for your feedback, drive safe out there.
