Advanced Driving School - New Albany: Reviews
Fantastic experience: We could not be happier with the communication and instructor. They have a team of teachers who are very flexible to work with. Our son had about 40 hrs learning starting from scratch with us before we began the package drives with an instructor and it was the best path. Having the basics down means the instructor can focus on developing sharper skills before they test. The most important thing I can tell parents is do not wait till you are close to the date you're hoping to be licensed, start early and don't procrastinate
Thanks Brian! We appreciate you.
Fantastic experience: ADS was so helpful and accommodated our somewhat complicated schedule. My daughter's instructor was top notch. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review for Mike – Driving Instructor Mike is an excellent driving teacher! As someone who was nervous behind the wheel, I really appreciated his patience, calm energy, and clear instructions. He takes the time to explain everything in a way that makes sense and always stays professional but friendly. He created a relaxed learning environment that helped me feel more confident and in control. He doesn’t just teach you how to pass the test he teaches you how to be a safe and responsible driver for life. Highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive, especially if you’re new, anxious, or just want someone who truly cares about your success. Plus, he’s super respectful and easy to talk to. Thank you, Mike!
Awesome Jennifer! Thank you so much for the kind words. We agree 100%
Negative experience: Giving two stars only because of the instructor Mr. Halter did a phenomenal job, however every interaction with office is horrendous. Can not ever get a hold of anyone via phone or email. Communication is key for any business, however this driving school is only succeeding at driveing parents crazy and customers away! I do not recommend using this company at all. Worst experience ever!!! Update: Yes, unfortunately I had already spent hours calling the office and getting no response, just like the first time we tried to get his permit you couldn't answer the phone so we went to your office surprise you were not there either. Thankfully your landlord was there and it took her to actually call you to get a response. I changed your rating to 1 star as you seem to only respond to Google reviews. I hope you learn to use a phone as well as Google one day
Bill is an excellent instructor. Thank you. My understanding is we were able to get a form to you in an hour and half that we ask for 24 hours in advance notice. Have a great day.
Fantastic experience: Mike is the best, he is super chill, nice and helped me tremendously
Awesome Kaylie! Mike is great. Thank you for the review.
Fantastic experience: Worth every penny! Ask for Brandon! His driving lesson gave my wife so much peace of mind. She was nervous about our first kiddo getting out on the road and the services of ADS put her at ease! Today our son got his license!
Thanks Reid! We appreciate you all!
Fantastic experience: This program was a great program, they really take time to show you everything and talk things through with you if you have any questions. I would recommend David Lagowski. He was a great coach and taught me a lot of things and was very easy to communicate with and can work with your sports and school schedule.

Fantastic experience: Had a great time working with my instructor David Lagowski, very patient and chill guy, not to mention the information gained from the online classes was great. Overall great people to learn to drive from, as they will make sure you learn as much as possible within your six hours of driving with an instructor.
Awesome to hear Nathan! We love David, he is the man. Thanks for the review!
Fantastic experience: I had Mr. Brian as my driving instructor and I’m so thankful I couldn’t ask for a better instructor. He is super cool and laid back.

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience with ADS from start to finish! After completing my 30 hours of online learning, I was matched with a driving instructor very quickly. My instructor was Jamie and she was amazing! She makes you feel very comfortable, confident, has the patience of a saint, and to top it off has a terrific personality. Thanks to her, I was able to pass my driving test with Mike and I now have my license! I am thankful for Jamie and Mike for their assistance and kindness. They’re really awesome people! I would recommend this school to anyone! You’ll be in great hands! 10/10 ☺️

Fantastic experience: We had a great experience. I love the convenience and the fact that they will pick up at your location. We didn't have to drive anywhere to meet her instructor. I also loved she could take her driver's test with them and not the BMV. Overall great experience with great communication.
Thanks Missy!
Fantastic experience: Great experience
Thanks Lucas!
Negative experience: I have called twice and left voices to call me back to set up time for driver instructor and sent messages via website twice over the last month and have not gotten a driver to call me back. Very frustrated! Are they still in business? I want a refund if they are not going to honor the 6 hours of driving instruction.
Hey Amy, I believe we have reached out and got this matter taken care of? is this correct?
Negative experience: I payed for the 5 hour driving session nearly 2 months ago and they never called me back after a month. I sent them countless emails and have yet to receive my refund which was promised.
Hey Cameron, Thanks for letting us know. We do have a list of ways we reached out to you, so please let us know in how we did not communicate and we will be happy to get better. Thank you!
Negative experience: The terrible instructor made 3 cars in a row back up (unsafely).
We are sorry you had a bad experience. We always strive to do our best. It would be very useful if you could be more specific with what occurred. Your description is a bit unclear. While we cannot change your experience, if we understand the problem we can at least try to fix it for future customers.
Fantastic experience: We are SO HAPPY that we chose Advanced Driving School for my son's Driver's Ed! From a first hand experience, we now echo what so many reviews have said about this company. My son learned so much, and everyone was courteous. Driver's Ed can be an intimidating thing, but Advanced Driving School reassures the student and builds needed knowlege and confidence! Although my son only drove with him once, Brett was very quick with all of his communications. We were very happy with Joel who was nice, helpful, knowlegable, understanding and relaxed. My son became a more confident driver through his instruction! We'll actually miss these classes! Mike was also quick with his communications and put my son at ease, even though he was nervous to take his Driver Skills Test. Mike was kindhearted, caring, and professional. We could not have asked for better. I look forward to using this company when it's time for my other three children to take this class! Advanced Driving School certainly prepares it's students to be safe and responsible drivers.
Any, thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement. We’ll be sure to pass this along to Mike, Brett and Joel.
Fantastic experience: Katrina was great to work with. My son enjoyed his driving time with her. I'm very pleased with our whole experience with Advanced Driving.
Awesome to hear! Glad it was a great experience…
Fantastic experience: They have a variety of instructors to provide flexible scheduling drive time options. You'll be happy your kid learns with ADS!
Thanks Blake!
