Negative experience: Terrible experience with Rose because I actually caught the flu from her. I’ve been sick and have had a fever for days. My first lesson was okay, although I didn’t appreciate her browsing or texting on her phone while I was practicing, but I didn’t say anything at the time. For the second lesson, she didn’t inform me in advance that she was sick, and she wasn’t even wearing a mask! We could’ve easily rescheduled. She was coughing, feeling cold, shivering, and weak for the entire 90 minutes, and still didn’t wear a mask. I felt bad for her, so when she asked me to collect the cones and take them back to the car—despite it not being my responsibility—I didn’t refuse. Unfortunately, I ended up getting very sick from the lesson. I started coughing, sneezing, feeling cold and shivery, and have had a fever for days, and I’m still not recovering. This is incredibly unprofessional. Please be responsible toward your customers by notifying them and rescheduling in advance to avoid spreading illness to others. I demand a full refund cuz I'm not paying to catch the flu.
Hello,
I'm not sure what to say here. I didn't have the flu. I was cold cause it was cold outside. I felt nauseous cause I was car sick. I'm in a car all day. I usually have crackers in the car but I didn't. I'm sorry you were sick, but it wasn't from me. I did send you back your money.
As far as the cones are concerned, I have not once had a complaint from my other students. Actually they all want to help me set them. Good luck to you
Fantastic experience: Excellent driving school! Would HIGHLY recommend Larue’s Blackstone Valley Driving School to anyone who is looking for a safe, reliable, and dependable driving school for their child. Rose is also very pleasant, patient, punctual, and provides honest feedback. Both of my boys did their lessons with Rose. You’re in good hands!!
Hi Holly. Thank you for the great review. Brendon is a good driver!
Negative experience: I was a first time adult driver with no experience and a lot of anxiety getting behind the wheel. Rose wasn't patient or understanding . She kept telling me I had no common sense, she'd yell at me if I made a mistake or took a wrong turn during practice and at one point she called me a Narcist. Rose was unprofessional and condescending. I had 3 lessons with her and always dreaded going. In the first lesson we practiced pulling into a parking spot and backing up to the left and right. We also practiced turns. In the second lesson we practiced Parallel parking and in the third both together. At the end of the third lesson she mentioned backing up in a straight line and a three point turn were also on the test but that it was easy to do. She never bothered to show me. Rose would eat, answer calls and for some reason consistently burped in the car while I had my lessons. I stopped doing anymore lessons with Rose and finished with Kathy's Driving School. Kathy was kind, patient and taught me everything within three lessons. I have my license now thanks to her. Granted everyone has a different experience, I definitely didn't have an enjoyable one and wouldn't want anyone else's time/money to be wasted.
Hello Jasmine. Thank you for your response. I strive to make everyone comfortable. I have searched this years lessons and could not find your name? I'm glad you got your license. Kathy is a good driving instructor.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! Rose was amazing with my daughter and helped build her confidence driving! She passed her driving test with a perfect score! Thank You Again Rose we will see you in two years when it is time for our son!
Thank you for the great review. See you again!
Fantastic experience: Just finished my last lesson with Ms. Rose! I learned how to park, take good turns, learn signs, and even drive to my work in one piece! Definitely worth it!
Good luck Laila! You got this! Keep in touch.
