Olympic Driving School

Fantastic experience: Olympic Driving School is wonderful. The staff are all professional, friendly, and responsive. Terri Reed was the main private instructor our son had, and she is amazing. She helped him to be calm and confidant and to learn the things he needed to pass the test. He also had one drive lesson with Tom Babbit, who is also very supportive and encouraging. We highly recommend this school!

Fantastic experience: I got my drivers license today because of Terri Reed!!! She seriously is one of the best drivers instructors I’ve ever encountered. I’ve done over 10 private driving lessons with her and if you have anxiety about driving she helps you through that. I was born and raised in nyc and I took trains everywhere. I really doubted myself when it came to learning how to drive. She was always so calm and understanding with me. Terri really gave me a boost of confidence to get out on the road and trust myself! She truly cares about her students and the safety of others! I couldn’t have done it without her! I would also love to thank Steve for always being so helpful and kind with helping when it came to scheduling. The staff is so respectful and kind!

Fantastic experience: I just got my driver's license thanks to Terri Reed!!! As a neurodivergent person with severe anxiety, I was too scared to practice driving until I was 27. Terri gave me a lot of confidence-building lessons, which not only helped me become a safer driver but also improved my overall confidence. I always doubted myself growing up, but thanks to Terri, I became more confident and learned to trust myself. Terri was highly accommodating and kept changing her teaching style and methods until we found an approach that worked for me. Thanks to her, I learned to process my surroundings and translate my thoughts into actions. I learned things about myself I didn't know during the process. I'm always amazed by how astute and flexible she is. But what stood out to me the most was her genuine care for her students and everyone’s safety. She has a big heart, and she remembers her former students and worries about them. She also made sure I got my money's worth out of every lesson. I don’t think I could have gotten my driver’s license with any other instructor. I also took a lesson with Ana Torres, and she was fabulous as well. I really appreciated Steve and Brandon’s help with administrative matters—they were so respectful and kind. I’m so grateful to the teachers and staff at this driving school. :)

Negative experience: If i could put 0 stars i would, the instructor for the written test will fail you every-time no matter how many times you thoroughly look at the trick questions, answer differently, no matter how much studying you do your gonna get a fail every-time, this facility has a habit of money grabbing and covers it up by passing a few select of students to get by, you take away the retake policy after i paid $35+ to take the written test while also promising a retake everytime i pay, ill take my business elsewhere and go to shady shack and get my licence the same day dont waste your time nor your money here the service is terrible

Fantastic experience: Have had 3 kids go through their program and all did very well. All have said they liked the instructors and the experience.

Negative experience: My daughter recently took her driving test at Olympia Driving School and was given an automatic fail for something that didn't happen. When she asked for clarification, she was questioned in a way that made her feel like she was being accused. She even suggested reviewing the cameras to prove her point. If there's an automatic fail at the start of the test, students should be informed immediately so their time isn't wasted finishing the driving test. I agree with the other comments saying that this place is a money grab. Very disappointed with the experience.was tested by a MRS TERRI

Fantastic experience: Steve, amanda, ralph, terri ...you guys are awesome ...highly recommended best driving school staff in olympia very knowledgeable very patient very polite...everything you can ask for.

Fantastic experience: Just took my DOL skills exam drive with Tom Babbit he’s amazing, very respectful and understanding and doesn’t yell at you!

Fantastic experience: I was always anxious about getting my license but life had other plans. Recieved news I was having my first child so I signed up paid for and attended the classes and then the drives. I had severe anxiety getting behind a wheel but this place has amazing teachers each and every one of them. Over 15 years of self doubt and the little voice in my head saying you will never do it was melted away, but specifically by Terri Reed. She was my main teacher during my drives, she made me feel as relaxed as possible and after the drives id get some "homework" which vastly improved my driving by the time I took my final test. I loved the classes and the drives I highly recommend this place to anyone with a teenager or someone you may know who has severe anxiety about driving. I loved it here, and I will likely bring my child to them later on in his life.

Fantastic experience: Thank you for a great experience. Twin boys just completed the instruction and testing. We really appreciated working with Terri Reed. She’s so good with teenagers.

Fantastic experience: I had an overwhelmingly positive experience with Olympic Driving School. I recently moved back to the US after 5 years abroad and needed to start the whole license process from scratch. Started with the knowledge exam which was on-site using their laptop. After passing that, i booked the “practice and test” session. Fred took me out, got me used to the car, showed me how the test would go and we proceeded from there. Fred was helpful and professional the whole time and helped set my nerves at ease. I successfully passed (yay!) and would gladly recommend ODS to folks of any age.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this driving school. The front desk staff, Christina and Jessie are very responsive and took the time to determine what I needed. My instructors, Ralph and Terry were incredible! They were patient, knowledgeable and in 4 private lessons built up my confidence, skills and knowledge. The school is welcoming and the entire staff is invested in your success!

Positive experience: This school is one of the best i attended i am now a fully licensed driver of the state of Washington and i enjoyed the drives i had with Lynn Rux she is one of the best instructors i have ever had doing the drives and she is the only one i highly recommend, they teach you the loops of driving and showing you how to handle certain situations

Fantastic experience: I started driving very late in life due to various factors, and my anxiety on the road is well above average, which has hindered my ability to successfully get my license in the past. I decided to take a chance with Olympic Driving School, and it changed my life. I booked a warm up lesson before my skills test and my instructor, Terri Reed, was immediately able to put me at ease during it. Because of this, I was able to finally able to get my driver's license! Being able to drive myself to work has changed the trajectory for the rest of my life. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Terri and the rest of the staff at Olympic Driving School. Thank you so much!

Negative experience: This school has all the earmarks of a money grabbing scam. Instructors can't agree on what is or isn't a failing event, after a "fail" the instructor offers "private lessons" outside of the driving school. When asked about reviewing dash cam footage to verify if a failure actually occurred you're given excuses as to why they won't do that. I would avoid this company at all costs. The fact the state privatized something legally required is asinine to begin with but welcome to Washington I guess...

Fantastic experience: Everyone here was awesome and super helpful as I learned to drive! Terri was an excellent teacher and very patient and encouraging! Thanks again :)

Fantastic experience: An amazing driving school to say the least. I was well prepared for the open road. Terry my driving instructor was phenomenal and very respectful. I advice any new drivers to come to Olympic Drive.

Fantastic experience: My driving instructor was Terri Reed, and she was amazing. She was really professional and patient and as someone with dyslexia, I am so thankful for Terri's support and understanding. She is the best!!!

Negative experience: Very disorganized was never told exact time of appointment even tho we called ahead of time. Terri was very rude and condescending should not be working in a customer service environment.

Fantastic experience: Terri was my driving Instructor and she made me feel comfortable and safe when doing the driving test! she doesn’t make the drive awkward at all, but helped me ease out of my nervousness !!

Fantastic experience: I am a mature person returning to driving after a long absence due to vision issues which were finally corrected. I delayed longer than necessary out of test anxiety, but my whole experience here was incredibly supportive. The staff are organized, professional, and welcoming. My instructor, Terri Reed, put me at ease immediately and taught me a ton of useful skills and tips I wish I had known years ago. In three lessons I regained my confidence and passed my test. Back on the road, happy and a better driver. Terri also helped my son go from newbie to safe, licensed driver in just a few weeks. Highly recommend ODS and Terri!!!

Fantastic experience: Terri was a great instructor! Very helpful to me as a driver with anxiety and I learned a lot of great tips from her.

Negative experience: Update to reply: Your first sentence of your reply is a prime example of what I'm speaking of. You state that you take the reviews and feedback seriously so you can take action promptly. Yet I posted my review 3 months ago, updated it 2 months ago and you just now responded. Of course you're going to say that it goes against your policy, I don't doubt you have policy in place. It's whether or not that policy was followed, which it was not. You can say there was discrepancies in the details of my review but I 100% stand behind my review of this organization. Everyone from the receptionist to the instructors are disorganized, poorly managed, and lack the skills needed to teach. I think you take advantage of people, especially young adults who may lack the ability to speak up which is extra angering. This is not my first complaint. I did call you on other occasions to discuss previous complaints with little to no resolve. There had been repeat issues with your organization, which did not occur with the other organization. So.... Again, I 100% stand by my review which I'm entitled to regardless of how much you want to come in and try to defend it. I don't like those that take advantage of children, especially children who are trying to learn and I will discourage anybody I come across from using your location and that's that. No phone call is going to change that. You had your chance and you FAILED. My daughter PASSED! UPDATE: I am confident they are failing people on purpose. My daughter just took the test at another school without any additional education or training and aced it DoNOT use this school. I'm pretty sure they fail people on purpose just so they can charge for a second testing. My daughter attended multiple training sessions and they did not provide any actionable feedback to help her improve her driving. They just kept asking "what does she want to practice". If she knew what she had to practice she wouldn't need to go to the school. For example, if a driver needs to back around a corner as part of the testing. Perhaps you train her on how to back around a corner. If she's not looking in her mirrors enough coach her and let her know she needs to practice looking in her mirrors. That's what I paid them to do. I can let her drive around all day in the car but they're the specialist. They should be observing the students driving and then provide them coaching. Instead, they fail her 3 minutes into her driving test and then charge for a second. Of course there's no real proof because it's the instructor's word against the students so they get away with it. I strongly suggest you look into a different school.

Fantastic experience: I did 14 lessons with Terri Reed and she was also the examiner for my skills test. I'm 26 and I never learned to drive because it gave me horrible anxiety. Terri is an excellent teacher, very calm and laid back, and great at explaining things in a way that makes sense. She changed my life and helped me overcome one of the biggest sources of stress I've ever faced. I will be forever grateful

Positive experience: EDIT: I'm raising my rating because someone did reach out to me today about my concerns and did their best to make things right and address my concerns. Leaving the original rating below. Their system is supposed to auto generate reminder emails, but it was not doing so for either my phone number or email. They did get the email working but not the text. So if this is your problem, there may be they can get it to work for you too. They also were able to schedule out the remaining of my kiddos drive times, which helps so much to just be on a schedule. I'm so grateful. Although they don't have post-drive summaries or comprehensive check lists that come home after each drive to help inform the parents, Tess was kind enough to send a list of what each drive should be about so that I can work with my anxious child before he drives a new car with a new person. I also am very appreciative of this. My original review put them at a two star. Since some of my complaints were not accurate (such as their system not sending reminders) I gave them back a star. I raised it one more star for the customer service I received today. ------------------ I'm having my 3rd child go through driver's Ed with my third company-- we have done a school based program, 911, and this school. This would be the worst of all the options. There is zero flexibility in location, which is difficult with split custody (kids school is midway between the parents houses). The scheduling for drives is clunky, and has no reminders text sent. You can't schedule multiple drives at the same time so it's such a hassle rather than just being able to set a repeating event. The portal is old and clunky and feels like someone's nephews highschool multimedia project. Just got a note "your child is behind so schedule more time" with zero indication of what my child is behind on with regards to driving. So that's frustrating. The other schools gave list of things to work on and check lists so you could really support getting your kid the right sort of drives. I have received almost no communication from this company that is helpful. Overall, I find this place the worst choice in town. If you are weighing options 911 is such a better program.

Fantastic experience: I got driving lessons with Carolyn Toliver at the Olympic driving school and she was the absolute best and teaching me tips and tricks to get over my driving anxieties and thereby become a better driver. Thanks to her training I got my driver's license and can parallel park with ease. Everyone else at the school was also super helpful and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I personally loved the instructors, they were patient and understanding and made sure I understood what meant what, I also would like to mention how wonderful it was to drive with Ms. Tolive (Sorry if I misspelled her name)

Fantastic experience: I was with Miss Terri reed, for instruction during the school last year in August. This AMAZING woman would always come to school with a bright smile on her face, ready to teach us. She is such an amazing person, and she has helped me throughout all of Olympia driving school. Took me some time to finally take my written test, but when I was able to take the written test oraly with Miss Terri she made sure that I understood the question and I was able to answer it. Here I am through it all. Officially a license driver. Because of Miss Terri. Thank you so much for everything!

Negative experience: I had a really bad experience here. First, I made the staff and instructors aware I transferred states and had an expired license because of a military move. What they should have immediately done is explain that military moves causing an expired license are excused & handled for free (just new license printing fee) by the DMV. No, instead they told me I needed to take a written exam AND driving exam. I paid about $120 I believe for both. What is worse than this wasted money was how I was treated. The staff were all friendly except for the female instructor who conducted my physical driving test. She was condescending, rude, and inappropriate. At the end of the test she indicated I had “failed” by half a point but that since I was a “young and naive military wife” she was going to let it “slide.” She also insulted my car multiple times (I had just moved and it was not clean, but not overly dirty just unorganized). I am honestly disappointed with the lack of ethics, stereotyping me as an unintelligent “military wife,” and in general putting their profits over their community (a simple clarification to save me $120, a 30 min written test, a 30 min a driving test). Again, staff other than this instructor were fine. However I do not recommend the business for obvious reasons. EDIT: This was absolutely the correct place. At the time I had a different last name. I would never forget a place that gave me such an experience.

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed was amazing! She was kind, courteous, friendly... yet professional and pointed out all of the areas I needed to improve on my driving. She commented on my Boston hat! I actually hadn't seen her since 2021, when I attended Olympic Driving School , until today, which is when it occurred ro me to leave her a rave review. Thank you Terry Reed and Olympic Driving School!!

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed, Best instructor!!! She is very patient, calm, which made my son more relaxed when driving. She explained instructions and directions very well so that he could understand what he was doing incorrectly and be able to correct it right then. I would HIGHLY recommend Terri for your child's instructor.

Fantastic experience: Had great experiences during class and with my instructors, everyone really helped build my confidence in driving along the way.

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Everyone is welcoming. Highly recommend Mr. Greg and this place!

Fantastic experience: Good teacher and gives good information for first time drivers

Fantastic experience: Olympic driving school was great for learning to drive, but it was made awesome by the knowledge and helpfulness of Carolyn. She helped me learn tons to be able to finish my drive test.

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed is an amazing instructor. I had an easy time learning and I have improved tremendously under her tutoring.Good job and am proud to have taken my tests with you.

Negative experience: I feel ripped off I drove just fine and failed , seems like they just want to make extra money by having me retake the test

Fantastic experience: Willing to work the extra mile. My experiences with the staff Tasha and Crandall has been an outstanding experience..

Fantastic experience: Instructor Terri Reed is amazing!! She helped my son succeed in his driving lessons with all of her feedback and encouragement. We can’t thank her enough. She made him feel more confident and took the time to show him how to correct any errors. We appreciate her patience and positiveness! She is such a sweet person!

Fantastic experience: carolyn is nice

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed was an amazing instructor I felt very comfortable during my practice and test

Fantastic experience: Took the driving test with Ms Terri Reed and it was awesome. Her calm and non-judgmental voice helped me lessen my anxiety and I was able to focus more all throughout the exam. And I passed! Unlike my first take from 911- Driving school, I failed because of a rude and racist examiner. such a waste of time and money with them. So, if you are going to take a driving test, I highly recommend Olympic Driving School Olympia. *make sure to remove 911 driving school from your list.

Positive experience: This is a good driving school for cisgender people. The general skill of the instructors and in class learning part were good, at least better than what I’ve heard about other driving schools in the area, see other 5-star reviews. As a trans guy, I sort of dreaded going to class or doing drives. The website has a preferred name option, which is great! … Except only one driving instructor (I believe it was Carolyn, thank you!) ever used my preferred name. I don’t have a lot of confidence in correcting people in public, so it wasn’t very surprising that people constantly used “she/her” pronouns. Some instructors even told me things like “Attagirl” when I did something correctly on a drive. It made me feel disgusted, honestly. Also, since I’ve seen the driving school responding to other reviews, I have some suggestions. First, having more options than just male/female on your website would be amazing. DOL licenses in WA have an X option, and y’all don’t. Also, a pronoun section on student paperwork would have been awesome. Driving can be a scary learning curve, and I’m proud of how much I’ve learned thanks to the school. However, being treated like someone I’m not is a punch in the gut and took a huge toll on my confidence. I hoped this review is helpful to other trans people who are getting their liscense.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Olympic Driving School. The process from scheduling and taking a written exam and private driving lessons to taking the road test was so smooth, the staff was very accommodating especially my instructor, Ms. Terri Reed. Not only did she teach me kindly and calmly, she was also patient and encouraging. She was very professional, knowledgeable and gave me a lot of advice. I have never driven before I took the written exam and private lessons. Ms. Terri was able to help me learn safe driving and pass the road test within 5 private lessons. Thank you so much, Ms. Terri for the unforgettable learning experience!

Fantastic experience: Want to give a Thank You to Terri. Terri is very patient and professional with students that have anxiety and get nervous at tests. I highly recommend Terri as your driving instructor.

Negative experience: this driving school is fun! the breaks are nice and there’s lots of food options literally next door. :) I’ll remember this class for awhile. The only reason i remove star is because they weren’t really pushy with their discipline. All month our class was constantly chaotic and kids were disruptive. All that was sent was an email for what i know. It felt like a very nerve wracking environment and i wish the instructors would correct the behaviors more firmly. These students are going to be soon adults and they are allowed to act so obnoxiously? especially in an environment like a driving school. Other peoples lives are on the line when it comes to driving. Including the obnoxious students. I wish it was taken more seriously

Fantastic experience: Terri was awesome! They made the process easy and worry free. Quick and detailed help! I recommend everyone go here. Better than 911 Driving school. Thank you Terri, you made my test easy, and relaxing.

Fantastic experience: I took 10 driving lessons with Terri Reed and it was incredibly helpful. She was a great teacher - really calm, kind, encouraging, and gave tons of practical advice for how to be a good driver. She was also extremely accommodating of my schedule and the school was really flexible about rescheduling lessons if I needed to. And at the end I passed my driving test very comfortably. Overall, would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Just passed my exam with Olympic Driving School. Terri in particular was a fantastic teacher, and I highly recommend any student who deals with driving-related anxiety to do their drives with her. Can't thank them enough.

Fantastic experience: So far everything has been wonderful about the driving school, I recently just took my 5th drive with Crandall it was an amazing and informative learning experience for me. Definitely got me comfortable too the highway. I would definitely recommend this school to my friends and family.

Fantastic experience: I loved my experience there driving with Terri Reed!!

Fantastic experience: My partner and I both got pretty late starts to driving - we're both 24, neurodivergent, and we've been too nervous for years to be able to feel like we could ever handle driving. We decided to finally buckle down and get our licenses, so we registered here for private driving lessons. Our instructor Carolyn was amazing. She was so kind and understanding when we were starting our learning slower than average, and she was even able to help us get back on track with other students' pacing. She really made us feel like we could do it, and now I have my driver's license, and my partner has their skills test scheduled and coming up. I don't think we could've done it if it wasn't for her and how supportive of us she's been. Definitely recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed is an incredible instructor. She is very precise, detailed, and clear. I really appreciate her because of her I passed my driving skills test.

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed helped my kiddo over come his fears, and took the time to help him pass his test.

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend. I failed my first two attempts and bought some private lessons with Ms. Terri Reed and not only did I pass my next test I also became better driver with the time spent.

Fantastic experience: I had a great time taking my road test here! I had instructor Terri and she was so nice and helpful with answering my questions. I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs to get their license!

Negative experience: instructors are too old to even do math right.

Fantastic experience: Crandell is an amazing instructor and examiner I would recommend people who enjoy patient and helpful teachers.

Fantastic experience: My daughter had a good experience overall, and Terri especially was great for all her driving instruction!

Fantastic experience: I can't thank Olympic Driving enough, and specifically Terri Reed. I'm an autistic adult and don't have a lot of time to practice with the people in my life, so I've gone with the one on one lessons, and Terri has absolutely gone above and beyond with making sure I'm taken care of, moreso than is even expected of her. Always friendly, and always kind. I felt supported, celebrated and at home. So happy I ended up coming here, and recommending Olympic to all of my loved ones in my life.

Fantastic experience: I went into my downtown drive today super nervous and had Crandall as an instructor but he was so chill and helpful during the drive. He helped me when i needed it but also let me do it on my own. Would definitely recommend Crandall as your drive instructor.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Olympic Driving School. Instructor Mr. C Cardinal was outstanding. He helped my daughter feel calm behind the wheel any time she was nervous. I appreciate his cheerful friendly personality. From a mom's perspective...he turned a nerve racking experience into a fun learning experience for my daughter and I.

Fantastic experience: Crandall is one of the best instructors I’ve had, he is chill and makes things easier! Thanks Crandall!

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience learning how to drive here. The staff are very friendly and understanding and I would recommend this place to everyone. Crandell is such a nice instructor, and Tasha is a very helpful manager.

Fantastic experience: I recommend asking for Crandall at Olympic drivers Ed! Great experience, super understanding, and friendly!

Fantastic experience: The instructors are brave for training the children on how to drive

Fantastic experience: I love Amanda's vibes! She is so supportive and I got what I needed to learn from the first driving class. i was terrible at parking but Amanda made me do it so easy. i would highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Crandall is an amazing drive instructor. He has a very calm energy and is very reassuring. I feel confident with him in the car. He allows me to correct my mistakes by myself. I really look forward to driving with him again.

Negative experience: Instructors were rude and double booked friends driving test. As well as the instructor told her she cannot ask questions. Which was hard for her since she had hard time hearing Fred and needed clarification on his instructions but was told she can't ask questions. Think Fred needs to learn to communicate better and speak up because his poor communication my friend wasn't able to understand and asked questions on clarification of the directions. Simple stuff that instructors should be able to do. I'm really disappointed in this driving school and their integrity.

Positive experience: Driving sessions last 15 or 20 minutes. Which means each student gets 10 minutes of actual driving. As far as I can tell all they do is ride with them for a few minutes and then give them a laundry list of things to work on. So instead of teaching skills and working with students they say “you’re bad at this, work on it”. But he eventually passed and alls well.

Negative experience: My son a student who had a drive test today that was canceled at time of appointment, thanks for the notice as I had to take time off work to take him.

Fantastic experience: Olympic Driving school was amazing and I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a great experience to learn how to drive. Tom was an awesome fun guy and showed me all the ways of the road. Very Glad to be a part of this program!

Fantastic experience: Terri Reed is one of the best instructors I've had between any educational facility. High school, college, job training, etc. Terri blew so many out of the water with her adaptation to my learning style, calm adjustment to my techniques, and general meditative vibe which she conveyed to ease my driving anxiety. 10 years ago I was hit by a truck while riding a bicycle, and my perspective on driving shifted for the worse. I was terrified for a long time, and after finally getting behind the wheel over the last year, I continued to struggle with immense driving anxiety every time I took a turn (let alone parallel parked). I received a 92 today. I wasn't shaking, I didn't have to pull over and get out of the car . . . I wasn't scared. Nervous, sure, but not scared. Thank you Terri, and thank you Olympic Driving School for employing her. I'm very thankful for your presence in my community, and for putting safe drivers on the road.

Fantastic experience: We would totally recommend the Olympic Driving School for anyone wanting to learn to drive. The instructors are very knowledgeable, professional, and have wonderful interpersonal skills which helps new learners. They have shown to truly care about the individuals they are instructing and are quite honestly, Great People!

Fantastic experience: Amazing! Staff was amazing! My instructor for my drive was very nice and thorough! I was very comfortable with her and didn't feel so nervous or stressed. Well recommend to everyone I know! Thankyou So Very Much!

Fantastic experience: I took my written knowledge test at this school and the two young women who worked there on Saturdays were always kind and courteous. It took me three times to pass! They were professional, and I felt comfortable and safe there - which is important to me because driving is a huge fear of mine! I look forward to scheduling my private driving lessons here soon :)

Negative experience: Showed up to the first day of class and the instructor refused to mask. The class is small hot and crowded with poor ventilation. The students are encouraged to eat and drink during class as well. It appears they're not following any COVID guidelines. In addition, no study materials would've been provided, all instruction is via PowerPoint and the students are encouraged to take pictures of important slides, they're not given access to the materials. I immediately removed my student. Would not recommend. I was also told my money would be refunded. It's been almost 2 months and they never issued a refund.

Fantastic experience: This place is great! 5 ⭐'s all around. I took both the knowledge & skills (driving) tests here. Loved the staff & my driving instructor. I strongly recommend coming here rather than the DOL their soonest available appointment times are 4 weeks - or more - away.... Thanks Olympic Driving School!!

Fantastic experience: My son was treated very well. Passed both tests and now is ready for the DOL. People were friendly and a great help.

Fantastic experience: Coming from a different state with a different system in how the administer testing and licenses, I absolutely love how well organized this driving school is. They make getting a license much easier and efficient. As well as very nice staff and helpful!

Fantastic experience: Super friendly, quick and sanitary. The staff and instructors are all amazing and create a great atmosphere for their students

Negative experience: I am disappointed with this driving school. My daughter intellectually delay and has learning disabilities. 3 times she has not passed her written exam. I asked to see what question she missed so she could study them. Well it's against the law but they could write down the sections she needs to study which does not help her. She drives well but she has trouble reading and passing the test. I feel she being discriminated because of her disability. We will be going to a different driving school. She will never get her driver's license if she stay with with this driving school.

Fantastic experience: Gregg was absolutely amazing to work with! Thank you for your help today Gregg!

Fantastic experience: As someone who was super nervous about taking my driving test, I would highly recommend Olympic driving school. I took the 911 driving test before, went through their class and had terrible experience. I was so lucky to find this place. The staff are very friendly, and my instructor Greg, who was supervising my test, went above and beyond. My family and I, are super thankful to him and everyone there. If you are nervous about taking your test or driving please check this place out.

Fantastic experience: Hands down best experience I’ve had. Great people along with amazing, helpful and caring instructors. 10/10 would recommend this driving school. A very smooth and non stressful experience for new drivers. They make it very comfortable for you.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing, everybody is very professional, helpful and you can learn a lot here. Give them a chance and won't regret it. I had a horrible experience at 911 driving school in Tacoma and then I found this jewel

Fantastic experience: Very nice instructors! Everyone had a good vibe Vibe check: passed

Fantastic experience: Great job!

Fantastic experience: The instructor, staff and training exemplary!! I'm a senior citizen and haven't driven in some time but through their skill, patience and superb training I passed and now have my licence!!!!!!!!! I wasted my money trying other driving schools....THIS IS THE ONE THAT GOT ME POSITIVE RESULTS!!!!!

Fantastic experience: My daughter and her friend dreaded Drivers Ed because they heard from friends how awful their experiences had been. We are so glad we chose Olympic Driving School because they actually LOVED it. They were sad when it was over and they miss the staff and the dog. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: It's a great school to teach me how to drive I'm not scared to drive anymore. But the only problem I had was the 3 girls in the class. Tell them to stop staring at me, I'm not lesbian!!

Fantastic experience: I have always had an anxiety with driving and have been to different driving schools in the past. Olympic driving school by far has been the best. The reason being the staff. My instructors made sure to find out exactly what I was struggling with and helped me with that. Tom was excellent! He is very knowledgeable and friendly.He made sure to calm my nerves down and taught me really well. Taylor was wonderful too. She was very detailed in explaining things to me. I also had the pleasure of interacting with Scott the owner who was very polite and friendly. They were flexible with my scheduling and their receptionist (Emily I think) was very courteous. Overall, the staff are professional and highly skilled! Winston their dog was a bonus.

Fantastic experience: WOW! I couldn’t believe how FREINDLY and SUPER accommodating the staff there! Tom who unlike the last place my wife went to get her driving test done (WMST in Everett) introduced himself (Tom) and put her at ease right away, insured her that He was there to ensure she understood that he wanted her to do her best without being nervous and because English is her second language took the time to make sure his direction was clear. I took my wife to a walk-in drive test center in Everett (WMST) so she could take the test because We only in Washington part of the time as I work for the US Navy in Canada. He gave her vague directions and failed her after she didn’t understand exactly what he wanted her to do. The guy was rigid and intimidating. You can see my review there the instructor didn’t even introduce himself and intimidated her from the start. My wife got a 92 here with TOM after failing just 2 days before at WMST. THANK YOU OLYMPIC DRIVING SCHOOL and TOM!! I have given you referrals already!!

Fantastic experience: Excellent ans professional driving instructors. People always say drivers eduacation is boring, but i found this school to be very engaging and interactive. They do many fun things throughout the whole course. My instructor Tom was super funny and kind. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and remember you. Plus, you get to meet winston the best buddy. 10/10 school. Incredibly comfortable atmosphere too.

Fantastic experience: My son went here and completed the 4 week course, written exam, and skills test. The staff was knowledgeable and consistent even when I wasn't. I live in Lacey and drove to this particular driving school because of the reviews and I was not disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I was a student at this school and they take it slow with you and they make sure everything clicks Tom is an amazing driving instructor he helps me stay at ease when I'm nervous so I can focus and drive my best

Fantastic experience: Professional instructors. Easy to follow course. High class at a low price. Thanks Taylor!

Fantastic experience: Best driving school in town. The entire staff is fantastic, the instructors patient and knowledgeable, and the location is so convenient. The school is walking distance from the high school, and next door to restaurants and Starbucks if the kids need to get there early or stay later waiting for a parent pick-up. The school is flexible and works with your child to schedule the drives around their schedules, and the personalized instruction is top-notch. They teach the classroom information in a way that's actually interesting and engaging to teenagers and captures their attention, rather than only dryly reading from a book. My daughter felt knowledgeable and confident after completing their course, and I recommend this school to everyone we know. Tom was an excellent driving instructor, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The staff is friendly, caring, and engages personally with each student. They leave there fully prepared for their driving test (which they conduct on-site), and feeling as if they were taught by friends. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: My son took his class with Olympic Driving School and I am so impressed with the quality of the education for the money. This is the school you should choose! The driving instructor Tom was the best! Really made me happy each and every time they went out together. I had enrolled my daughter with 911 Driving School and it was a total let down and more money too!! I now feel that Kasey is ready for the road. Strongly recommend Olympic Driving School!

Fantastic experience: Scott and his driver instructors are professional, knowledgeable, courteous and friendly. The cost was a fair price and my husband and I liked the fact that our son was always excited to go to class. Our son also learned a lot and felt very confident to drive after taking their course. We highly recommend this school. Thank you.~ KW
