Fantastic experience: Patty and Mia are great! Both my girls went here and loved them! Thank you, ladies, for being awesome at your jobs and helping this scared mama!
Fantastic experience: My instructor Patty, was a great instructor, helping me learn everything that I needed to know about driving. She was very kind, helpful, and supportive during all 10 of our hours together. I highly recommend her to everyone. I'm definitely going to do the refresher course with her before my test.
Fantastic experience: Patty is a wonderful instructor and is very calm and patient. She helped my son to feel at ease and the drivers ed process was smooth and quick!
Negative experience: The class instructor (not sure if it was owner) was very unprofessional. Made some really stupid "jokes" about teens in general, to a room full of teens. He just had no respect for these young adults in the class. He also said up front "do not call me when class is up, you'll get an instructor assigned, and then you need to deal with only them". So out of luck if there is an issue or question-So we did get an instructor, about three months later. Marianne-she was also pretty rude and made comments about how her time was important when we asked if thursday was okay, as if we were being difficult when we simply waited three months to hear from anyone, then asked for a day each week. She could have just said "how about such-and-such a day, this day is filled". It was just a difficult process riddled with disrespect. The final straw for me was my daughter coming home in tears after a driving day, but we didn't feel we had a choice except to keep going till it was done and we did just that. We de-stressed with treats after each nonsense visit just to curb the anxiety. For the price paid, the amount of disregard and disrespect was appalling. They only get two stars from me because the instructor did technically know the laws, which is obviously the point of the class. If they also knew how to be polite and professional, that would be great. Glad to be done with them.
Fantastic experience: Our daughter just completed her drivers ed course and we are so pleased with Northeast! The class schedule and time frame were consistent and staff were helpful and friendly. We especially loved our daughter's driving instructor, Patti! She was so calm, empowering, and knowledgeable. Our daughter is dyslexic and was worried that this would impact her driving ability. Patti assured us that she has had experience with other dyslexic students and would be able to make our daughter comfortable and teach her in the way that she learns. Can't say enough about Patti - our daughter loved her so much that she is naming her first car after her! :) We are looking forward to seeing Patti again for a refresher course before the driving test!
