Fantastic experience: Wonderful, safe, and helpful knowledge of driving, incredible lessons and instructor, passed test on first try. Thank you so much Sandra, I am so grateful!
Congratulations Scarlett on earning your driver’s license! May your driving journey be filled with safety, situational awareness and happiness. Cheers to THE BEST family I was lucky to serve. Thank you for your trust and happy vibes!
Fantastic experience: My son had a very positive experience with Sandra. She made him feel confident behind the wheel and focused on his specific needs and areas of improvement. Not only did she comfort me with first time mother jitters but include me in his last session to make sure we got everything ready for his driving test. Our last session was on the December 29, by December 31, 3024 he was a new driver not only that with an excellent score. Thank you, Sandra, for all your dedication knowledge, and guidance. Do doubt I’ll be using her when it’s time for my daughter classes.
Thank you Leticia for your kind review. Your son was well prepared for his drive test and it made me happy when you let me know he earned his license! Success!!!!! See you soon for your daughter’s driving lessons. Safety to you & your family always.
Fantastic experience: I am so happy I chose Sandra to teach my son the necessary skills to drive. My son felt confident going into his behind the wheel test. She provided us with some extra material to practice just before test. I chose to have my son do the very first driving lesson with her because I was too nervous to do it. After every class with her he and I both felt at ease. She is very knowledgeable and we highly recommend her. My teen is now a licensed driver
Thank you Mayra for putting your trust in Excel Driving School and allowing us to guide your son to the world of safe driving. His driving skills helped him earn his driver’s license on his first time with a strong score! It was always a pleasure teaching Juan and seeing his improvements lesson after lesson. All the BEST to you and your family and see you again for your daughter’s driving lessons.
Fantastic experience: Sandra is an awesome teacher and I cannot recommend her enough! It was a pleasure to learn from a safe & skilled driver. The skills acquired is a lifetime for me. I passed my behind the wheel test on my first try today, 12/06/2024, with only 4 errors. Thank you again, Sandra. Best Wishes to your family and have a happy holidays ✝️ - Joshua
Congratulations Joshua!!!! So happy for you! I still remember from your first phone call to your second driving lesson! Thank you for being a great student, willing to learn and improve and ultimately reaching your goal of becoming a licensed driver!!! Safety to you always and happy holiday’s!!!
Fantastic experience: I express my gratitude to and strong recommendation for Driving Teacher Sandra and her Excel Driving School for excellent and cost-effective driving instructions. Hugely because of her guide, I easily passed my DMV driving test at Ventura, California today.
So proud of you, Audie! Congratulations on earning your California driver’s license and welcome to the safe drivers club! It was my pleasure in preparing you the best way I know how to ensure your safety, improvement and success! I appreciate you texting and sharing the happy news! Safe driving to you always & thank you for your trust and kind review!
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Sandra. She was so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. My son passed his “behind-the-wheel” test with ease, and we send her many thanks! She offered the guidance that he needed, and he was well prepared. Sandra is #1 in my book, and I will continue to recommend Excel Driving School to anyone I know who is preparing to get their license.
Congratulations to Isaac on becoming a licensed driver!!! Being well prepared for the behind the wheel drive test is of high importance! Not only did Isaac earn his license but earned it with a great passing score! So proud of him and all of his efforts and improvements. Thank you for your trust Vanessa and for your kind review! Safety, improvements and goals achieved are of high importance to us! Safety to you and your family! Isaac is going to have a great time enjoying his cool blue Honda in a safe style.
Negative experience: DO NOT use Excel Driving School! Find a different school as there are so many others to choose for $470. Let me give you the cliff notes why and then if you want you can read below for more information: 1) My daughter has to take 8 hours instead of 6 and I have to pay $800 total because Sandra cancelled my appointment last minute even though she instructed us to make the last drivers training appointment right before the drivers license test. Sandra will not verify her hours she has already done for 2 weeks and does not have an opening until 9/27 or 10/1 for her make up appointment. We made my daughters appointment 3 weeks ago for 9/20. 2) Sandra doesn't take students on the freeway. 3) Sandra takes them to pump gas with a mask and gloves on even though its not on the test. 4) Sandra does not take students on the drivers test track. Okay here is the long version: 1) Sandra just canceled my daughter's 9/17 6:00 pm appointment on the same day at 3:00 pm due to a family passing. Sandra could not rebook until 9/27 or 10/1 which is after my daughters drivers test which is 9/20. Booking the last drivers appointment was what Sandra instructed us to do. I had to call around to find a new school which would squeeze us in. I understand that all of this is out of Sandra’s control but here is where it gets frustrating. Two people from the new school called Sandra and asked for her to give them a letter stating the 4 hours that my daughter had already taken but Sandra said that would take 2 weeks and was unwilling to work with us. This will be too late for the drivers license exam appt I made 3 weeks ago. Sandra stated that this policy was started 5 years ago. She also said that she was trying to work with me by offering me different days but again these were after my daughters drivers license test. My daughter now has to take 8 total hours instead of only 6 hours because Sandra will not give us a letter stating that my daughter has taken 4 hours of school. I also have to pay $330 on top of the $470 I have paid to Sandra, that's $800 TOTAL! I asked Sandra to refund me at least $313 which is the right thing to do but she said that she didn’t have to refund me any money. I told her that I would leave a bad yelp review and she asked if I was threatening her. We even have to cancel my daughter’s 16th birthday dinner so that she can take her additional hours due to Sandra’s unwillingness to expedite a letter for us. 2) I didn’t realize that she does not take students on the freeway and this is an extra charge. Many schools in our area take students on the freeway. She also does not take students on the drivers license course which many schools do. For $470 I would have thought it would include this but I should have asked ahead of time. I asked Sandra why she didn’t take kids on the freeway she said because its not on the test. 3) We live in Camarillo so we met her in Village in the Park for the first lesson all she did was have my daughter drive around Village in the park and then pull over for 15 minutes and take notes. She refused to book another lesson sooner than a month. 4) On the second lesson she drove around Village in the Park and then drove to the gas station on Carmen and had my daughter pretend to pump gas with a mask and gloves on. Pumping gas is not on the test.
Unfortunately due to the passing of a very close family member, all driving lessons scheduled on 9/17 were rescheduled, except the lesson for your teen as you were unwilling to work with us. Two dates were offered to you the next week and you refused. We were unaware your teen had a scheduled drive test day’s away, however, we’re unable to accommodate if there is no availability. Freeway driving is not included in a minimum 6hr. driving lesson package as students are not tested on the freeway for their drive test. You knew about this sometime ago when you started sending your demanding and controlling messages. It’s unfortunate, you don’t see all the safety measures that need to be present in a place such as a gas station where crimes that are committed could be easily avoided if people were more aware of their surroundings. It is illegal to take a student on the drivers test track as you call it. Instead, we empower students with all they need to know to feel confident and well prepared for their drive test. Happy to report we are very successful in this area where most of our students pass their drive test on their first try with awesome scores. Some students have passed with perfect scores which is a strong reflection of how well the student is prepared. As educators, note taking is of high importance so students and parents know what to work on and improve in between lessons. We have a no refunds policy, however, mailed you a check 9/23/24 for the unused lesson as we will no longer be providing any services due to your poor conduct. Please STOP sending demanding and controlling messages. Your tone, demands and controlling ways and energy are unacceptable! God see’s everything! All the best to your teen on her drive test. It was my pleasure to teach her and remember they were great lessons. Safety to you and your family always.
Fantastic experience: Great instructor very reliable and good at teaching. Definitely learn a lot from her and prices aren’t bad.Would definitely recommend for anyone who is trying to improve their driving skills or trying to pass the drivers test.
Thank you Lazaro for your kind review! It was great teaching you and helping you improve your safe driving skills! Safety to you and your sweet family. Any questions you have along the way, please reach out!
Negative experience: The person who answer the phone was super rude, worst customer service ever!
No one in our team received your call nor provided and services to you. You have been reported!
Fantastic experience: Sandra was a great instructor to our teenage son , we could not have chosen a better instructor . He had his first lesson at 15 and a half , and last lesson at 16 .She was very kind and patient , and really instilled confidence in our son as a driver . He took his behind the wheel test and passed on his first time, only after 3 lessons over 6months time. He wasn’t nervous or worried about failing , because of how he was taught . She really takes the time to explain everything to her students and makes them feel comfortable and safe in asking her any questions ,she would write down notes for him during lessons, and go over any questions at the end . I can truly say I would send or refer anyone looking for a driving instructor , her way. Thank you Sandra for all your help in preparing our son . Who is now a happy licensed 16 year old .
Thank you Darlene for your kind review! We love empowering students with safe driving skills! Congratulations to Irvin on earning his drivers license 8/22/24. Thank you for your trust and safety to you and your family always!

Way to go Dominic and thank you for choosing to be a safe and responsible driver! All the best to The Hunt Family and thank you for your time and trust.

Fantastic experience: I have taken three driving lessons with Sandra so far she has been truly patient throughout each lesson. I really feel more relaxed, comfortable and confident knowing that Sandra is guiding me, talking to me about different instructions and road mistakes. Taking notes and learning has taught me a lot through my driving lessons. I will say at my first and second lesson I had a fear of driving through intersections. But Sandra has been there guiding me each way. After my third lesson I felt more relief knowing that Sandra was there correcting all of my mistakes. I really would highly recommend Excel Driving school with Sandra! She's been amazing through all my lessons.
Fantastic experience: If you've read the other reviews you'll see most of them mention's Sandra and how patient and experienced she is. I can 100% vouche those statements. My first driving lesson, like all new drivers I was very nervous but she really takes the time to make sure that you are confident in your driving and she emphasizes on safety. Whenever I have a question she provides an answer right away. After each lesson, I leave learning new things and feeling a bit more confident.
Fantastic experience: I love my driving instructor Sandra. She's very professional, cordially knowledgeable and stern but very kind and patience with me, someone who had never had a DL or driven a car before and have an extreme anxiety about driving. She's so detail oriented but still took her time to explain every little thing to you about your concerns or questions you had. I'm a 100% more confidence behind the wheel now with the helps and guidance from Sandra. So, I am more than happy, and I highly recommend Excel Driving School to anyone.

Negative experience: bad service. Of course not, if Sandra is giving me bad customer service. If she does not have the time and desire to answer my questions, she better not waste my valuable time by calling me back.
Our records indicate you have never been a student with our school.
Fantastic experience: My classes with Excel Driving School have been amazing!! Sandra has taught me more in two hour lessons than I could have learned in two months myself. She is very attentive and answers any questions or doubts you may have. She also explains everything in detail and shows you visuals, in order for you to see real life examples. Overall I would highly recommend Excel Driving School if you’re a beginner or if you want to improve your driving and get yourself ready for your DMV test. They were very flexible with me and squeezed in my 3, 2 hour driving lessons when other driving schools couldn’t and now I am on my way to earning my license as a more informed and safe driver.

Fantastic experience: Sandra is a great driving instructor. She was well prepared and very informative. She gave great feedback about my driving and how I can improve in certain areas. I highly recommend Excel Driving School for anyone looking to get on the road.
Fantastic experience: Just in 4 hours Sandra the driving instructor has taught me a lot about driving, she is very knowledgeable, calm, and professional. In my experience, in the first two hours you learn the basics of road signs , lanes, hand placement on the steering wheel, foot placement on the pedals, basics of the car interior and what each button does️, driver seat positioning, mirror adjustments, blinkers⬅️➡️ ,how to make a U-turn↩️ and most importantly blind spots. After that she gives you the choice to drive on the road or in a parking lot, whatever makes you feel comfortable but she will always try to challenge you to get out of your confort zone since thats the only way of improving. On the second two hour lesson you learn how to make sharp turns, wide turns, basics of parking♿️, how to change lanes, how much to slow down when approaching train tracks or dips. And from there you're basically just driving to improve your driving skills. I have my third lesson in a few hours and I am looking forward to it. Sandra will also tell you what to improve on after the lesson ends just in case you don't schedule another lesson with her again which is a huge plus because it shows that she really cares about her students passing the test. Another pro is that Sandra is very good at avoiding awkwardness, and she quickly tries to make her students feel comfortable again after they might have done something wrong which is common for starters. And just one more thing, she has her own brakes and accelarator on her side just in case that makes you feel more comfortable. So instead of reading my review go ahead and give her a call and schedule a lesson with her today, you will learn a lot.
Fantastic experience: Sandra is awesome! She has a great, calming energy about her and my daughter has learned so much. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Sandra is a great driving instructor. She’s very patient and knowledgeable. She corrected my mistakes politely and also told me what I needed to improve on.

Fantastic experience: The classes are amazing!!! I had the pleasure of driving with instructor Sandra and she was very kind and gave very detailed instructions. They have a set meet up place and set times prior to appointments. They are very fast with call backs and make sure that they help with any question or needs. They also let you rent a car for your drivers test if you don’t have one yourself.

Fantastic experience: Sandra is a great instructor. One of the things I really loved was that she takes the time to show kids how to put gas. As a parent I feel that is one of the main things we forget to do when we are teaching our kids how to drive. Recommend her 100 %

Fantastic experience: Sandra is very patient and taught me about the rules on the road. Although I was a bit nervous with the first lesson, I was more calm on the second lesson. She made me feel safe and gave me a lot of useful tips and motivation when driving. Would highly recommend for new drivers.

Fantastic experience: Sandra is just awesome! She is professional and personable. Although I did not get a service with her, her knowledge in her field is unmatched. I will definitely recommend her services to anyone in need of it! She is great!
Fantastic experience: I have been driving in another country but driving in the USA was something I had to learn because of the different rules and road practice. Though I have had an experience driving in the past, I was really intimidated here. Excel driving school gave a thorough discussion of how driving should be done in order to be safe. I was assigned to teacher Sandra and she was very friendly, patient and warm — it was like driving with your friend or cousin . She figured I was very nervous during my 1st session and she was constantly reassuring me that I can do this. She tried her best to make sure I regain my confidence and that I know where I need to improve on. Cheers to you Excel driving!
Thank you Catherine for your time and kind review. Thank you for your trust in allowing us to help you become a great driver. See you soon for your next driving lesson.
