Top Driver Driving School

Negative experience: you guys suck so badly. do NOT come here. I’m being dead serious. Find any other driving school to go to. I think I dealt with most of the staff here and there was only a handful of the staff who weren’t rude, careless, or dismissive. To start, on a Sunday class, one of the teachers at this dumpster fire (who didn’t even tell my kid her name, might I mention) didn’t show up to class at all, and the class needed to be made up on another completely random day. Not to mention, the class waited outside the locked door of the facility in the freezing cold weather waiting for this careless member of their staff to arrive. Nothing was said besides the makeup date. This clown and this school inconvenienced an entire class of people! This same instructor, on the times she showed up, would often show up 10-15 minutes past the start time! This school pays her to show up late to her job and barely teach us! I think through her lessons I LOST knowledge about how to drive. She also was very dismissive for when my son had a question and was very unclear with her directions towards the class. Behind the Wheels in this school have a few decent instructors, but if you don’t end up with one of them you are in for an awful 2 hour car ride. It feels like boot camp just to learn how to back out of a parking spot! Not to mention one of these individual instructors… who I believe was named Mr. Smith, has a comment for everything, and has either a snarky, mean, aggressive, or sharp comment for anything you do or ask behind the wheel. It is awful. This instructor needs to be away from children at all costs! This place is a circus and the staff are the sideshow filled with clowns. It seems as if they only care for your money and not to treat anyone here with respect or the attention that they pay an overpriced fee for. I don’t expect a school of driving to be the Garden of Eden, but this place was another level of suffering. It causes much anxiety for children and almost everyone here has a screw loose. So, by any means, DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE.

Fantastic experience: 10/10 the teacher Mr. Katz was amazing and made the experience so fun

Fantastic experience: My driving instructor and in class teacher was Mr. Sparkowski. He is both an amazing teacher and driving instructor. Highly recommend him as both.

Fantastic experience: Mr. sparkowski is a great instructor. Thanks for every thing top driver!

Fantastic experience: Jerry @ Top Driver Arlington Heights facility was a great instructor. My daughter was in glass room portion of the course with Jerry. She enjoyed his style of teaching clear and accurate with good nature attitude. During the behind the wheel portion of the course with Jerry, she always maintained a cool calm and collected attitude. Jerry always took the time to give us a break down of our daughter’s road time. Jerry is simply a great instructor.
