Fantastic experience: * This is after completing 2 hours initial training Just started with Alpha Driving School because I'm almost 20 and want to finally get my license to move around. My instructor took the time seriously. He arrived at our scheduled time and had me back home on the dot. During our lessons, he made me aware of where I could have issues on the test but still reassured me that I will be OK after learning, corrected bad habits that I had formed, and let me slowly work my way up to driving on the highway. At first, I was slightly anxious, but I guarantee even the worst driver will be able to easily get into the swing of things with this instructor. I have more maneuvers and driving to practice, but I will definitely stick with it.

Negative experience: Number one Sid is a lousy teacher we didn't get any of the 6 hours total and he didn't even take her to the driving test like I thought you paid for so therefore in my opinion Sid is a scammer we did not get are money's worth

Fantastic experience: Alpha Driving School turned driving from a something I was afraid of into a comfortable and easy to understand activity. The instructor was always providing tips and aiding me whenever he saw I was struggling. Above all, he is honest and will tell you if you are ready to drive or not. Along with being easy to schedule, Alpha Driving School is definitely one I would recommend to anyone who need to learn how to drive.

Fantastic experience: I have used Alpha Driving School for both of my daughters, and they both had great experiences. Sid is very patient and thorough in teaching driving skills, which my daughters are sure to remember in the future. Even when going for the road test, he helped us check through all the paper work, make sure we had everything, and still get there in advance for the road test. I would definitely recommend Alpha Driving School to anybody looking for thorough, lasting driving instruction.

Fantastic experience: Sid, my driving instructor, did a phenomenal job teaching me the skills I needed to pass my road test today! He gives great feedback and will set you up for success. 10/10 reccomend

Michael Johnson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter just took her driving test and passed. Sid was a great teacher and was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. What I was particularly impressed with though was his commitment to his clients. My daughter had a small problem on the day of the driving test and we had to get it sorted out in the MVC office, which took over an hour. Sid was supportive and even gave us insights on how to get through the system faster. I'm sure he had other things to do, but he stayed with us until my daughter passed her test, giving advice and keeping my daughter calm. He was awesome! thanks Sid

I will highly recommend for anyone.

Fantastic experience: Sid was so easy to work with! He was efficient worth the paperwork and responsive to my texts and phone calls. Most importantly, Sid was great with my daughter and helped her gain the confidence she needed to hit the road as a competent driver.

Ronen Simovitch 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I found Sid after the Bridgewater driving school went out of business leaving us hanging. Sid picked it up in a very professional way, was able to restore my son's confidence and eventually pass the driving test. I highly recommend him.

Nilesh Kheni 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My both sons had six hours requirement with Alpha Driving School. Both sons appreciated the techniques and awareness of driving given by Sid. They also did the drive testing as well and successfully completed at first scheduled test. Sid gave all the details of test site map and precaution prior to road test. It is enhancing the confident to their clients. I would recommend registering to get lessons with Alpha Driving School if anyone interested. Last note to suggest that new learner drivers must do practice and apply the techniques he provides during the practice.

Susan Johnson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Alpha from a trusted friend who had her 3 kids take their driving lessons with Sid. Now, both of my kids have completed the 6-hour driving sessions and I was pleased with the instructor's ease to schedule, promptness to answer questions and overall dependability.

Negative experience: During the first class, this instructor told me daughter she is beautiful several times and touched her shoulder a few times. My daughter felt very uncomfortable and creepy, and denied to take the rest classes. When I called him to check about the situation, he didn't accept and refused to refund the rest of tuition per contract. After reading other one-star rating cases about him, I suddenly realized this old man actually like students to quit his class because he can easily earn $335 for just 2-hour class. So, advice to you is don't waste money on this driving school (only him as an instructor).

Fantastic experience: He was very professional, stern and informative. Great with my 17 year old grandson Jake

Gabi Gealbhain an Ruadh 5 years ago

Negative experience: Terrible. He yells, constantly belittles and talks about people while screaming at you. Highway first? Why? Didn’t teach a single thing- yelled through the entire lesson. Avoid this school at ALL cost! (Unless you like being abused)

Ali Stone 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great teacher, although he can be somewhat stern his lessons are good and I just passed my road test on the first try today because of all his help! Thank you Sid!!

Negative experience: If I could give this place zero stars I would. If you are looking for cheaper prices then be aware that you will get mistreated while taking driving lessons. My mother took 2 lessons with this guy and she did not pass her first road test. During practice he would yell at her and would apologize just to yell at her again. He would grab at her wheel when doing turns. She felt very stressed after leaving the lessons. He does not have any patience whatsoever with his students. We finally looked somewhere else and on the day of her second road test she practiced 1 hour before and she passed.

Riley Arias 7 years ago

Negative experience: i cannot express how upset i was over my driving lessons last year. the very first thing i did, without learning how to turn or even operate the car, was drive on the highway. i was extremely scared and nervous because i didn’t even know how to drive. he continued to yell at me that i was “breaking too hard” and when he ran out of critiquing my driving skills, he started insulting me (i don’t even want to mention what he said). overall, i did only 30 mins of parallel parking and k-turning.... the rest of the 6 hours was just highway driving. this school doesn’t prepare you for the road test, which DOES NOT require highway driving. the instructor yelled at me when i had a question and constantly put me down and insulted me. i didn’t drive for at least 4 months after my experience because he made me scared to drive. my father was very upset with this driving school and never heard of an instructor so unprofessional. i passed my drivers test by the way, but that was because my father, and my brother, actually taught me how to drive.

Negative experience: Avoid if possible. Doesn't teach anything of worth during the initial hours and coaxes you to take longer hours. If you do sign up, make sure that you put your foot down and get exactly what you want from him. Don't allow yourself to get bossed and shouted at.

Miss Home 8 years ago

Positive experience: Honest breakdown of my experience with Alpha. Mind you, I'm a single parent and was comparing pricing on driving schools as my main concern. At first I couldn't figure out if this place even existed. The phone numbers go to generic cell phone voicemail. The email address on the website kicks back as "doesn't exist", and the entire site has pages that say "comming soon". I ended up receiving a call back though. It is owner operated, and for six hours of lessons, driving permit, road test scheduling, and future follow up practice right before her road test, the price was quite a bit less than other locations. Her first lesson was the very next day, and the following week she had her permit! If your super uptight about scheduling you may not like it, as he'll text you when he knows he has an opening the following day, it's not set up all neatly in advance. Also, if your child is sensitive you may want to spend the extra money and go elsewhere, as he has a tendency to shout, and according to my daughter he contradicted himself a bit. All that being said, our goal was to get her permit inexpensively and quickly, and that's exactly what happened. I'm glad we went there.
