Horizon Driver Education: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this school! Racheal is a phenomenal instructor: she is patient, reassuring and positive. I’m learning to drive as an adult, and I’m so grateful I found Horizon to help build confidence in driving.
Thank you aleksandra!
Fantastic experience: Had a terrific experience with the driving instructors and the administrators. Racheal was a delight to work with. I was super nervous on my first drive, but gradually she helped me build my confidence. I was able to pass my drivers test on the first try. All the praises to THIS driving school and their great staff. Thanks Racheal!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I would completely recommend Horizon Drivers Ed to anyone who is looking to learn how to drive. They are small business in a shared office space. I had Rachel as my instructor the whole time. She was patient, even tempered, understanding, and fun. I liked how she would give me tips on what to look for when parking and merging into other lanes. Anytime there was a sticky situation she would calming assist or take over. I would recommend booking an hour lesson right before your driving test if you go through the third party tester. It really helped to have that lesson and be able to driving around Clackamas. I wasn’t as nervous when it came to the test because of that.
Thanks Anara!
Fantastic experience: If you are slow like myself and require a lot of patience please book with Horizon Driver education. Kadir was my instructor and he was just simply the best! He has a lot of patience with me and encouraged me 100%. Mohammed was also a big help in this journey for me. Thank you guys!
Thanks Maleeka for the review!
Fantastic experience: I learnt to drive with Horizon in summer of 2024. The experience was fantastic. I have to recommend my instructor Dadir is fantastic. I'm a nervous driver and he really made my experience as relaxing as possible. Im happy to report I also passed my test on the first try!
Thanks Victoria! We do a practice the bussiness and the review !
Fantastic experience: I’ve tried other driving schools like Toms driving academy and Horizon is by far THE BEST. You want to know why? It’s because they actually care about you. They don’t just want your money they want you to succeed. I always felt safe and calm with my instructors here and fell in love with this place. I’m so happy I listened to the reviews and went here because it was a great experience.
Indigo, thank you! We do appreciate your presence and bussiness with us! We were glad to meet your driving experience expectations and wish you luck with your driving endeavors! Be safe and take care always! Your horizon team

Thanks Tresser for choosing Horizon, I am glad we delivered the experience and expectations! We wish you well in the road and be safe
Fantastic experience: I had never driven before and had no one to train me. I learned everything on horizon from the basics of driving to the ability to drive safely. I thank all the instructors: Rachel, Mohamed and especially Kadir who was my main instructor, he is an exceptional person. I passed my license with flying colors thanks to you. Thank you all.

Thank you Taylor! We do appreciate doing classes with us and horizon delivering its promise! Thanks Horizon
Fantastic experience: I took 4 lessons with Kadir and passed my driving test 1st try. If you have no prior experience driving I’d recommend 5-6 lessons. Kadir is good at teaching, but even better at helping you overcome mental hurdles (anxiety,fear,ect)
Thanks Colin! Appreciate doing bussiness with us at HorizonDriverEducation!
Fantastic experience: Adult learner here. Racheal was my instructor and she was wonderful to learn from. I paid for the ten hour package. I started off feeling very nervous as I had no driving experience prior to these lessons. Racheal put me completely at ease (and was a blast to talk to!). In the first lesson, I went from parking lot driving to driving on side streets and main roads. In my final sessions, 3 weeks later, I was driving comfortably on the freeway. I passed my drive test first time through! Thanks Racheal!!!!
Thanks Logan! We do appreciate you doing business with us and trusting your driving needs with us! As we always said “ your driving passion is our purposes “ Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience and I highly recommend Horizon Driving school. The instructor was really helpful. I got my driving license.

Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience at the driving school! The instructors were experienced and flexible with scheduling lessons! They provided great support and made sure I felt confident behind the wheel before my driving test! Highly recommend!
Thank you! We appreciate your support and choice to work with us for your license need. We are all glad we offered and delivered! Thank you
Positive experience: Could use some work on punctuality, but overall very high quality instruction and very understanding and patient instructors. When you take your test you’ll be glad you invested in your own driving record with Horizon.
Thanks for the feedback!
Fantastic experience: They are the best if you want to get your license. They adapt to their clients' schedules and on the day of the appointment for the test they go with you and help you with everything until you pass the exam and they even warm you up by practicing before the exam. I went through all the instructors and they are all super good especially Rachael and Mohamed. I recommend them 100%. You won't regret it!!
Thanks Maday! It was pleasure to serve you and provide you life time lessons! We wish you great!
Fantastic experience: very Indian place and employees! it took me a couple appointments to get the hang of communication because I'm autistic, but Kadir eventually got it too and he was a very good teacher! after I scheduled my drive test at the DMV, I passed it first try!! Kadir is very friendly and he did the driving instruction and also helped me do all the DMV stuff as well :) they don't actually do the drive tests, but Kadir helped me schedule one and let me warm up a little bit by driving myself there. overall very good experience, would recommend!!
Thanks
Fantastic experience: My instructor was extremely patient and helpful over my five hours of classes. I passed my drive test with a great score and recommend Horizon for anybody learning to drive!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience the entire time! Everyone there is an amazing teacher and really helped with my confidence
Thanks Yuankai! We were glad to touch every experience of your driving needs and happy to see you are ready for the road!
Fantastic experience: We picked Horizon Driving School by random and glad we did. My instructor was Rachael and she was terrific!! She's very patient and is committed to teaching you how to drive safely. She's totally set on seeing you have a pleasant experience and not only learn to drive good but learn all the rules of the road. If you're on the fence about Horizon and have concerns, don't worry. They'll see to it that you have a very pleasant experience. They work around your schedule. When you book, try your hardest to get Rachael, you'll never regret it!!
Thanks for the feedback Ms Rowley! We do appreciate you had chosen horizon over others .
Fantastic experience: I would definitely recommend Horizon Driver Education to any driver who wants to learn and build confidence. They are very patient and always accommodating with scheduling. My son had 4 lessons and I liked that Horizon always asked what specifically we wanted to focus on. He passed his drivers test with a 97 out of 100!
Thanks TJ. We appreciate your bussiness and we were glad to support your son to success with his license journey
Fantastic experience: Thank you Kadir and all the driving instructors at Horizon Driver Education. I was a very nervous driver and couldn’t even drive comfortably on a big road. Kadir is so patient and encouraging, he helped me overcome the new driver nerve, and shared many tips to drive safely on the road. And finally I passed my driving test with the help from all the amazing crews. Thank you!
Thanks Jen.
Fantastic experience: I never thought I would ever drive, and never planned to learn. I have always been scared to learn and just thought it was too dangerous. After completing my permit I was recommended to sign up with Horizon Driver Education. I was again still hesitant… here I am finally having passed the driving test all thanks to Horizon. I can’t thank them enough, they were very patient and understanding of my fear but pushed me each lesson to get more comfortable. Even on the day of the test, they walked me into the appointment and helped me practice 1 hour before the actual test. I highly recommend Horizon Driver Education especially if you can… work with Dadir!!! Again can’t thank them enough and highly recommend !!!
Thanks Feli. We do appreciate your bussiness.
Fantastic experience: Easily a 5/5. My driving instructor was clear, concise, & patient with my level of driving. After just a few times of practicing, I found myself back on the road with new confidence in my driving skills. Thank you Horizon!
Thanks for the feedback! We appreciate your patience with us!
Fantastic experience: Thank you Horizon Driver Education for teaching me the basic skills on the road. I did the standard class which is 6 hrs total. No experience prior to this. Kadir was chill and I was able to understand the directions. 2 weeks later I took my Driver’s Road Test. I passed first try! Thanks again and Goodluck!
Thanks for the review. We appreciate your business with us!
Positive experience: Great instructors, had a little glitch but it was sorted out, I now have my license and am now a driver on the road☺️
Thanks
Fantastic experience: After two practices I passed the test. It was really good how they pointed me to the things I needed to improve and gave me good feedback to learn quickly. Would recommend to anyone who needs to do the test or simply gaining confidence
Thanks Gonzalo. we appreciate your choice of business of us over other driving school. I am glad we didn't disappoint you as well. Gracious
Fantastic experience: Great driving experience! Helped build my confidence in driving!
Thank you Stephanie for choosing us to meet your driving needs. we appreciate your business and support.
Fantastic experience: Kadir was so helpful during my driving lessons and his calm energy helped me to feel more confident! I was a really nervous driver but after two hours with Kadir I was much calmer, and I passed my test on the first try! Thank you so much!
Thanks Ellis!
Fantastic experience: If driving has you feeling anxious, look no further than Kadir for guidance. His intelligent and caring approach is tailored to each student, ensuring you get the personalized instruction you need. With Kadir's help, I passed my driving test confidently. He’s truly the best guide you could ask for on the road to becoming a skilled driver.
Thanks Aditya!
Fantastic experience: Did lessons for a few weeks straight and thanks to Kidar I was able to get my license.
Thanks Benjamin for the review
Fantastic experience: Great experience, I got around 6 l lessons then scheduled my driving appointment. The classes were smooth and flexible, my coach was well informed and motivated me, which made driving easier as it is a mental barrier at first. All around good experience.
Thanks Jay
Fantastic experience: I learned to drive from Kadir and he was an incredible driving coach! At first, I had a lot of anxiety when getting onto the road and he really eased me into the experience. He was honest, but friendly and easy to get along with. He was also very patient and supported me through the driving process up to the minute before the exam! He has helpful tips and tricks to help sharpen drivers skills and gives special attention to areas of growth in order to really help you improve. I would 100% recommend the drivers school for ANYONE especially those with driving anxiety and it was the most affordable course from all the ones I researched!!!
Thansk Ms Kudzai. we really appreciate the business you have done for us.
Fantastic experience: Prior to the lessons, I had very little to no driving skills. I really wanted to actually get on the road so I decided to seek out a driving school and Horizon Driver Ed gave me a great experience. During each lesson Instructor Kadir was very understanding, patient, and gave well instructions and driving tips. I was able to quickly get on the road and got to learn better driving techniques. Now I feel more confident in driving. Thank you Horizon Driver Education for your great service!
Thank you for Leslie for trusting us with your driving needs. I am glad we were able to deliver your expectations. As we say at horizon, your driving passion is our purpose. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: These lessons were amazing helpful. I had some driving experience, but not enough to feel nearly confident enough to take the test. I ended up having Kadir and Shane as my instructors, mostly Kadir. Their input was fantastically helpful and they were very open to focusing on areas I felt weakest with on top of the areas that they noticed as needing improvement. I passed the driving test, and the 1 hour of practice they offer prior to the testing was a great way to work out the nervousness that had built up. My wife has also noticed a dramatic improvement in my capabilities. I am super appreciative of their help with finally completing this goal.
Thanks Jason for trusting your driving experience with us! It was an honor to serve you! We do appreciate the business! Thank HorizonDriverEducation Team
Fantastic experience: This is a very great drivers school. The owner is really nice and helpful. Shane and Kadir really took their time to safely teach me how to drive and now I feel good about parking and driving on the highway. I am now confident that I will pass my test.
Thanks Keziah
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience with Horizon Driver Education and their instructor Kadir. I never got my license when I was a teenager. Twenty years later, and after eight driving lessons, I passed my driving test easily and now enjoy driving, all thanks to Kadir. He was kind, calm, encouraging, and funny; he put me at ease, took my driving anxiety, and gave me confidence and good advice as I was learning. He also did a final drill with me shortly before my driving test, which was great. Scheduling was also a breeze – I work full-time, which Horizon accommodated with great flexibility. All in all, I am so glad I pulled the trigger and finally took real driving lessons. It made a world of difference.
Thanks Alexandra for the review
Fantastic experience: If you wanna get you’re license go to Kadir he explains all the rules very well and gives great advice and tips for when you’re driving I got my license in just one month 100% recommend
Thanks Uka for the review!
Fantastic experience: Mohamed was a great instructor and was a helpful, calm, and positive presence. I went in with previous practice, but wasn't feeling confident about taking the test and had a lot of anxiety. In one session, he coached me on the specifics of the test and helped me build enough confidence to take the test the next week, which I passed!
congrats Aria! we are very thrilled to hear that you have passed.you knocked it off. Be safe on the road and thank you for trusting us with you r driving needs
Fantastic experience: I had a really great experience! I've dealt with a huge fear of driving and the instructor Kadir was a very calm presence who did a great job reassuring me. I started Jan 2024 terrified and now in Feb 2024 I passed my driving test first try and significantly more at ease. Learning how to drive has made me a lot more confident in myself, which I am very grateful for! The scheduling is also very easy :)
Thanks Hannah for trusting us with your driving needs! Congratulations on your passing and we wish you the best in your driving and be safe on the road

Thanks Amber! We were glad to have your son with us as well. Be safe and take care! Thank you for choosing Horizon
Negative experience: bad experience, my first class was good with Mohamed, but the second time I was waiting for kadir for 30 minutes he never showed up, if it continues like this I will want my money back.
Angelica, as you stated we have started and provided good experience to begin with and one time delay does not define all our good work we offer. we have offered to remedy that experience which you unfortunately denied. Again, we are always here to offer the best services to our customers.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with this drivers education program, Kadir was very patient and knew what he was doing. I was already fairly confident in driving but just needed that extra boost in knowledge. Especially on parallel parking, I would definitely recommend to anyone learning to drive.
Thanks for the feedback
Fantastic experience: A very kind and accomodating company. Kadir was a calming and encouraging instructor.
Thanks for the feedback

Thanks Julian. we were glad to have you with us as customer.
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience learning to drive at Horizon Driver Education. They were very flexible and worked with my schedule to deliver the best learning for me. I had never driven on the road before I started learning here but the instructors were very patient and thorough that by the end of the training I was very comfortable behind the wheel. I also passed my drivers test on the first try thanks to the amazing tips and the extensive practice test from my instructor before my appointment. I will definitely recommend Horizon Driver Education to everyone
Congratulations Joy. We were thrilled to have you with us.

Thanks Ren. We appreciate your business with us!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! My instructor, Kadir, was very patient and supportive. He gave me so many great tips and always made me feel safe. I was finally able to learn to relax while driving. In less than two weeks, I went from driving around a parking lot to driving on the freeway! I had a lot of anxiety about learning to drive as a middle aged adult, but thanks to Horizon Driver Education I now am feeling confident and looking forward to having the independence and ease driving offers! Thank you so much, Horizon!
Thanks Lisa for being part of our drivers Ed family! We were glad to have you on with us and thrilled to make an impact
Fantastic experience: Special thanks to Horizon Driver Education especially to Kadir for being so patient with me. He's very calm in giving instructions and reminders. He's also supportive whenever I'm doing things right! I used to be scared of driving in main roads, but he helped me conquered that today. I will recommend this driving school to my friends.
Thanks Robyn. We were glad to have you with us and appreciate the business.
Fantastic experience: Kadir was my instructor and he is really nice and calm. 1 and a half hour felt really fast as I was enjoying my practice on the road. Thanks to Horizon! Will surely recommend this to my friends!
Thanks, Jorena
Fantastic experience: They gave me very precise feedback on my driving, I had Adam and Daadir, they were very patient and gave me good and precise feedback.
Thanks bud! I am glad we were able to make a difference in your driving experience
Fantastic experience: I enjoyed my time with Horizon Driver Education. Kadir was my instructor for every session. I am originally from another state. We went on freeways and in rural parts to teach me different driving styles and speed limits. He really helped me learn to slow down in order to be a better driver. I passed the driving test on the first try. I highly recommend their services for learning to drive.
Thanks Immanuel! We were glad to have you with us and make a difference in your driving style!
Fantastic experience: I passed my drive test today. Thank to Horizon Drive Education for a wonderful job and a great driving lesson. Kadir has been a fantastic instructor, and he absolutely works with your schedule. His communication has been fantastic. I'm so grateful and so appreciate his job.
Thanks Narendra!
Fantastic experience: If I could shout my praise for the world to hear, I absolutely would. Kadir has been a fantastic instructor. They absolutely work with your schedule. Their communication has been fantastic.
Sabastian! Thanks for doing bussiness with us!
Fantastic experience: 10 hours of behind the wheel session with Kadir and I passed my DMV road test on the first try!!! Thanks Horizon Driver Education!!!
Thank Yi! We appreciate the bussiness
Fantastic experience: I am so glad I got driving lessons from Horizon! The instructors I worked with (Shane, Kadir, and Daadir) were fantastic. They created a relaxed environment and helped guide me through driving safely. After two weeks of lessons I was able to pass my drive test! From no experience to licensed in half a month truly is amazing. If you’re considering taking lessons (even as an adult) choose Horizon! Mohamed has an excellent team that will work with you and your schedule. Thank you so much!
Thanks Ruth for believing in us and choosing our business over the rest.
Fantastic experience: I signed up as an adult driver and took a few lessons a week with Mr Mohammad. The teaching I received was super clear and easy to understand as we worked up from slower speeds to highway driving, learning about road signs & driving etiquette along the way. I passed my test first time! you won’t even realise as you’re learning but the horizon team will overprepare you so that by the time you do your test you’ll feel super confident and be completely ready to drive anytime thereafter. Thank you Horizon for a such service and a fantastic experience
Thanks for your review! We have appreciated the bussiness
Fantastic experience: Thank to Horizon Drive Education for a wonderful job and a great driving lessons. Instructors are ready kind, give a lot of support, explaining everything and always gave me a helpful tips how to drive safe and right. I'm so grateful and so appreciate your job
Thanks Anastasia! It was great to work alongside you!
Fantastic experience: This was a great place for me to learn, at 33 years old I’ve never had a license and I’ve always had fears about driving in a larger city with so many drivers. Today I passed my test with ease. the instructors here are very patient and friendly , couldn’t be more happy with my experience.
Thanks! Congrats my friend
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with this company! I hadn't driven in over 20 years, and had never driven in a big city, but had to take the driver's test again and was very nervous about it. Mohamed, Shani, and Kadir were all very understanding and sincerely dedicated to helping me, and by the time my test came around, I was confident and passed easily with their help and encouragement! I recommend Horizon to anyone who wants practice and support with their driving. They are not just great teachers, they are great people!
Thanks Jack! We are thrilled to see you on the road again my friend!
Fantastic experience: Mohammed the owner was very welcoming and provided answers to all our questions patiently. I highly recommend the school.
Thanks
Fantastic experience: I passed my test with ease on the first try thanks to Mohamed and the team at Horizon! I’ve been terrified of driving for most of my adult life and was able to make do with trimet, walking, and biking for over fifteen years. I had a baby in the last year though and knew it was time for me to get over this fear so that we could get out and do fun things together without the additional stress and time of navigating public transit. I was so scared that I cried before my first lesson, but Mohamed immediately put me at ease as we slowly eased into driving in the road by starting worth a full hour and a half in safe parking lot (this is what I needed to build confidence). In subsequent lessons we navigated some of Portland's busiest roads like 82nd, division, & 122nd, practiced on neighborhood streets, focused on all types of parking, did highway driving, and even did a full lesson of windy country road driving. We concluded with some drills practicing for the test. I am so happy to have this skill now and enjoyed my lessons getting here. Mohamed is sweet, but direct in his feedback which is just what I needed. Thank you!
Thanks Jocelyn. For the honest feedback. We have appreciated having you with us and trusting your driving challenges with us. We delivered it collectively together. It was you who made it. We were glad to be part of it . See you on the road and thank you for doing bussiness with us and trusting us in your driving challenge
Fantastic experience: Passed my exam on my first attempt. This team has a great work ethic and made me feel comfortable with being behind the wheel. By hour two of practice, I was feeling ready for the test. Great instruction at a great value. Worth the time, money, and effort. Absolutely recommend!
Diego, it was pleasure to have you with us
Fantastic experience: Excellent learning experience with ease! I was able to get my driving licence without stress while quickly mastering the regulations. I highly recommend Mohamed and Horizon Driver Education.
Thanks for the feedback.
Fantastic experience: The instructors are very patient and super helpful. I passed my drive test in first attempt thanks to them!
Thanks Suraj! We were eager to be part of this process with you!
Fantastic experience: I was in a car accident about 8 years ago as a passenger and have been pretty scared of driving ever since. I finally got up the courage this year to start learning, and I am beyond happy that I choose Horizon Driver Education. Everyone I drove with was very helpful, patient, and explained everything so thoroughly. I signed up for the 10 hrs plus the 2 hrs for DMV testing. After my first lesson, I already felt more comfortable being on actual city roads, and by the time I was ready to take my test, I had practiced everything from downtown driving to freeways. I was very prepared for my DMV test and Mohamed even went above and beyond the day of my test to make sure it was all taken care of and I could get my license. I could not recommend this program more, I am finally a confident driver after years of being so scared of it and I am so so grateful for all the help from Horizon Driver Education!
Thank you, Tyann, for great review. We were glad to be part of the process in your driving passion which is our purpose.
Fantastic experience: A well deserved five stars! Highly recommend for any teenager - the team at Horizon are kind, compassionate and competent - exactly what you need when entrusting your child's safety to the hands of others as they take this milestone step.
Thanks Belinda!
Fantastic experience: Excellent session. Did an adult lesson as I've had a license but almost never use it and get nervous thinking about driving in fast-flowing traffic. We moved naturally from refreshing on the basics to navigating more challenging conditions and I walked away with a lot more confidence on the road as well as some solid tips for continuing to improve.
Thanks Meg! It was great to have you with us
Fantastic experience: Mohamed and the whole crew from Horizon Driver Education are phenomenal driving instructors and I highly recommend them. I went in as an adult looking for some scheduled driving practice before taking my first-ever driver's test, and every session I had helped me get the mechanics and regular feel for driving much quicker than I had imagined. Their style of instruction really gets you prepared for taking the test, especially if you are planning to take it in the city. I was able to pass easily on the first try thanks to this instruction and practice. Incredibly accommodating, incredibly cool people and expert teachers. Worth your time and business.
Thanks Ella for the kind words! We are glad we were able to meet your needs! That is why horizon exist for bussiness. Customers driving passion is our purpose of existence!
Fantastic experience: With Horizons help, after more than a decade of trying to learn how to drive, I finally got my license. They are excellent!
Thanks Kourtney
Fantastic experience: Very calm, honest and patient instructors! I had a good experience and passed my exam.
Thanks Dmytro! See you the road!
Fantastic experience: With the help of Mohammed, I passed my driving exam today! He's a wonderful teacher and I couldn't have done it without him. Highly recommend his business and will be encouraging my other unlicensed friends to take his courses
Thanks Jordan! We were glad to have you! Thanks
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. Not only was he knowledgeable and patient but, also helped me to build the confidence to be a good driver.
Thanks for feedback!
Fantastic experience: GOOD
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test today. I am almost 40 years old and I have been terrified of driving for most of my life. I passed because of what I learned from Mohamed. Beyond teaching me rules and signs, Mohamed gave me back my confidence, and made me truly believe I could do this. Mohamed has the knowledge, experience and patience to teach you and give you tools that are not only good for the test but for the rest of your driving life. It is not easy to teach how to drive, and not everyone can do it but Mohamed truly excels at it. I am so happy that I went to Horizon Driver Education. I remember reading the other awesome reviews and feeling that I had made the right choice and then I had my first class and I was 100% happy with my decision. I am here, writing this, so you too can choose to learn with Mohamed and have a driver’s license and, most important of all, the confidence to be out there on the road. Thank you Mohamed!
Barbara, thank you for the great feedback! We were so happy to part of your driving journey! You had so much from day, we just did it what we had to do to be great mentors! We do appreciate your kind words and the choice you have made to be with HorizonDriverEducation for your driving needs! Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: I had such a wonderful experience with Mohamed at Horizon Driver Education. I’m 39, and as a city girl (Boston and Portland) I never bothered to get a license. As the years went on I became very fearful of driving. I finally decided to try and conquer this fear, and with the help of Mohamed I did just that. He made me feel very comfortable from the first lesson behind the wheel. Mohamed gives clear direction and great tips to help you focus and stay as ease. We were on the freeway by lesson two! I’m so thankful that I chose Horizon out of all the available choices in Portland. I went from terrified to being a licensed driver in 4 weeks time. Thank you so much for your kindness, flexibility, and confidence! It was a pleasure to learn from you!
Hi Ashley, Thank you so much for been a customer with us! It was great honor to be part of this journey and support your conquer of driving world. We will see you on the road safe and sound. Thanks for the bussiness!
Fantastic experience: Our 16 year old daughter went through driving school at Horizon and I could not be more pleased with the organization, efficiency and time that Mohamed gave to her and seemingly all the students. He has a way to keep the students engaged and understand the seriousness of it all, even while being remote and online. Thank you Mohamed for being such a great instructor!
Thanks Maureen for the great review. We were also pleased how you have engaged your child throughout the process and I am glad it all worked out well. Thanks again
Fantastic experience: Passed my driver’s test and got my license within about a month after doing lessons with Mohamed. Coming from NYC, I had little to no experience driving and he did an excellent job easing me into it. He was patient and constantly teaching you as you drive. Highly recommend Mohamed and this driving school anyone interested in learning!
Thanks Martin. It was pleasure to work with you.
Fantastic experience: Mohammed is a great teacher. Great, constructive feedback and very good tips. I was nervous about driving but he made the process very easy. Saw a lot of sketchy reviews on some other driving schools, don't bother with them and go here for sure. Can't say enough good things about it.
Thanks Thomas. It was Lovely to work with you. My friend, see you on the road. Thanks for the business and thinking of us as well.
Fantastic experience: Had incredible advice (parking, general handling, testing) to give me even 50 hours into driving with all fundamentals learned
Thanks Marcus! You were superb and great to drive with! You embody so much patience the road requires.
Fantastic experience: Passed my drivers test today because of Mohammed! I told him at the beginning how driving gives me so much anxiety. And he was so patient and encouraging. Very professional and friendly. If you did something wrong he will explain to you what you did and how you can make it better in a very friendly way. Even if you made a right turn he’ll congratulate you on how well you did. And his encouragement is what made me more comfortable. I had a driving instructor in the past that I had a bad experience with and because of it I was super anxious and always nervous when it came to driving . But Horizon drivers education was such a good experience and Mohammed is an amazing instructor. I would recommend him to everyone especially new/anxious drivers :). Thank you so much!
Thanks For the good review! We have enjoyed so much providing lessons to you! Thanks
Fantastic experience: Really great instructor; calm, patient, and always gave useful feedback. If you need driving lessons, I can't recommend this place highly enough.
Masha, Thanks for your time with us and we have appreciated every time we have worked with you.
Fantastic experience: I pass my driving test today so excited . This company it’s very professional thank you I totally recommend this company to anyone trying to learn to drive or improve in their driving skills
Thanks Leticia! It was great honor to serve you
Fantastic experience: I moved to Portland with near to zero experience with driving since I am from NYC where a car is not necessary due to a 24/7 reliable public transit system and came here to go from being terrified of just being in the driver's seat to being licensed in a timeframe of 1 month basically. I would recommend this business to anyone with no experience driving over predatory places like Pacific Driver's Education with highway robbery prices.
Thanks for the good review!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. They have affordable prices and great lessons. I passed my drivers road test today from taking lessons with the company. Great instructor and very helpful lessons!
We were pleased to be part of your driving world. Thanks
Fantastic experience: Horizons helped me passed my test in no more than 10 lessons. Thank you so much for being patient and helping me get my License. The payment-contact-training situation is the best in the city and the instructor is extremely patient! Thank you !!!!
We were honored to part of the solution for your driving needs!
