Fantastic experience: I love Emmanuel, Jerry, Jimmy, and Charlie. They were a very big help but they don’t play. Over all everybody made it a very good experience. Arron was so supportive when times was hard and the training was great. Would definitely recommend if you are serious about the trucking industry
Hi, Alexis. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: Roadmaster Driving School was the best experience I ever had they have the best training in the world they where all great I'm very happy I'll recommend that School over any School
Hi, Tyrone. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
Fantastic experience: I wanted to take a few minutes and give a thorough review and walk through of my experience at Roadmaster. TLDR at the bottom. Roadmaster is a 4 week program to get your CDL. From day 1, the recruiter Justin is great about showing and explaining the program, giving a campus tour, getting you pre-hired with a good company, and answering any questions you may have. Week 1 is classroom. The instructor Charlie has a TON of experience and is great at keeping your attention as you navigate the classroom portion of schooling. This is where you're gaining the knowledge required about the trucks and industry to get your permit from the DMV. Some schools require you to get your permit ahead of time and there's no way I could have done it without roadmaster. It's a LOT of information! Roadmaster teaches it in an effective manor and made passing the written tests for my permit easy. Week 2: You've gotten your permit. Great! Now it's time to learn your Pre Trip Inspection. You spend a whole week going over every part of the truck and learning how to ensure both the truck and trailer is safe for you to operate. Jerry is great at helping you to develop a systematic routine, navigating through every part on that truck. Aaron and Greg were great at helping me develop the proper verbiage that's needed when you're testing with an Examiner to get your CDL. It seems like a long week but having that system down helps a TON if you get nervous during your exam. A good Pre Trip inspection will also be the start of every single day of your new career trucking, so learning it at roadmaster helps make every day a little easier. Week 3: Maneuvers. This week you're finally in a truck! This is where you get to practice pulling through, backing through, steering around, and backing around cones! It's awesome to learn how much space these trucks with a 53' trailer need to turn and how the trailer responds after turning the wheel. All of the instructors have a ton of driving experience and are wonderful at getting you to understand the relationship between the tractor and trailer. Special shout out to Jimmy and Emmanuel for their patience and expertise on this. Week 4: Road Drives and final touches! The last week! Roadmaster takes you out on 10 road drives of an hour each. The instructors are in the passenger seat coaching you through navigating turns, intersections, and everything else you need to have the confidence to drive one of these big ol things down the road. After you're finished with road drives you get to mix it all together and ensure you're ready for your Exam to get your CDL. My experience with Roadmaster St Louis was incredibly positive. The instructors genuinely care about you and your new career. I'm SO GLAD i chose roadmaster. I'll always have great memories to look back on. From the Instructors to being Pre Hired with a great company with tuition reimbursement, my transition into the trucking industry was seamless because of Roadmaster and I'm forever grateful. I talked to several different students from other local driving schools while I was waiting to test at the DMV and their experience sounded pretty rough. I'm not sure that either of them passed their Exam that day. Don't waste your time and money with a different school. Seriously. Shout out to Brian the school manager for being flexible and ensuring I had the knowledge and confidence to pass my CDL exam on the first try! If there's any area you feel you need more instruction on, he'll happily pair you with an instructor and get any kinks you may have worked out. I have my CDL and I'm working for a wonderful company and progressing along with my new career all thanks to the wonderful people at Roadmaster. I couldn't possibly thank the guys at roadmaster enough. I genuinely miss being there every day. TLDR; Roadmaster St Louis is by far the best choice in the area to get your CDL. All of the instructors are incredible and have a ton of knowledge to share. The program is designed incredibly efficiently and you have support every step of the way.
Hi, Marcus. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
Fantastic experience: Roadmaster Drivers school is the best, I would recommend you if you want to get your CDL first trial, mostly I thank my friend who introduced me to get my license here especially this location St. Louis. Special thanks to Brian HR for his dedication to getting all the appointments on time, although it took me 2 months to get my CDL because of lack of dates at DMV but now it’s so easy , another one Charlie thank you for all you do in class, and also Emmanuel you make maneuvers easy because you have all the tricks what to look for if you want to be in proper position, Jimmy, Aaron and Jerry, thank you guys I will apply everything you taught me!!
