Fantastic experience: Gaby was an excellent driving instructor for my teen boy. She took time before the lesson to communicate the objectives of the session and also after the lesson to provide feedback and highlight areas to continue practicing. Her communication was clear, her feedback was constructive and helpful, and she was super kind and patient in answering all of our questions. My son had fun and learned a lot driving with Gaby. She was calm and understanding with his mistakes, but honest and informative with her correction. Would highly recommend her.

Fantastic experience: We had an amazing experience during driving lessons with my driving instructor Gaby! She was super chill and fun during lessons and made sure I knew all the ways I could get marked off on the driving test as well as gave me tips on how to succeed. She was also super understanding when it came to me not being able to attend one of my lessons, and even moved around her schedule to fit me in for another lesson before my test despite her being previously unavailable. Because of Gaby, I was able to pass my driving test this afternoon with minimal mistakes and I'm super grateful to her! She's awesome and I would totally recommend her as your driving instructor!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience here and my driving instructor Daniel was very helpful and gave me very good advice.

Fantastic experience: I did multiple secessions and I did test service all with Calvin. It was an amazing experience as I started with no experience and very little confidence. Calvin helped me boost my confidence in driving and was always very helpful and supportive. I can 100% recommend this driving school and Calvin to everyone especially since I passed my drivers test with a perfect score!!

Fantastic experience: Before doing lessons at Teen Driving Academy, I had no idea how to even start a car engine. I had Calvin and Daniel as my instructors and they were both wonderful. I learned everything needed to pass the behind the wheel test at the DMV and also how to be a great driver and navigate the road. As a beginner, I had Calvin and he taught me everything in a way that was easy to understand and I was ready to go on the road quickly. Daniel helped clarify my driving abilities and he also taught me how to drive on the freeway even though it was intimidating at first. Then on my third lesson, Calvin taught me everything I needed to know for the test along with specific things about the DMV based on his past experience and I feel confident about it. I would 100% recommend either of them as they were both great instructors and helped me master driving.

Fantastic experience: Had my last lesson with teen driving academy, my instructor was Andrea and she was so friendly, funny and informative. She walked me through DMV test review and even helped me on my weak spots, showing me how to park correctly and work on speed.

Fantastic experience: I recommend Teen Driving Academy in Brea for any teen ready to learn how to drive. Sally and Daniel were amazing, my daughter really enjoy learning from them. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: David rocks! My son had all three lessons with him and he instilled confidence and strong knowledge of what my son needed. We kept practicing in between lessons the skills he learned in the prior class. Right before the test my son said he could hear the calm confident direction from David in his head and guess what?! He passed on the first try. Thanks Teen Driving Academy and instructor David. See you in a couple years for my youngest!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best driving school ever! My mother got her license here and recommended to me, and I’ve got my license passed first time here 20 years ago, then took my younger cousins there they also passed the first time and looking forward to take my kid one day. Very professional and friendly staff, specially if you have phobia or you get nervous I highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: Very happy and satisfied with the service they provided. Shout out to Calvin! He’s very professional, helpful, and knowlegeable. I passed my test on first try.

Negative experience: $65 for rescheduling + attitude !

Fantastic experience: I was extremely impressed with Teen Driving Academy. The instructor Khash was very professional. I received an appointment confirmation/reminder prior to the driving lesson and he was punctual on the day of the lesson. Prior to starting the driving lesson, Khash thoroughly reviewed the DMV scoring system with my son. He took my son on multiple routes to practice for his upcoming behind the wheel test. Khash offered many useful tips and advice. I felt that he genuinely cared that my son passes his driving test. I would highly recommend Teen Driving Academy and give more than 5 stars if I could.

Fantastic experience: Way to go Teen Driving Academy! I'm confident behind the wheel due to your patient, and thurough instucion. Jim Armstrong

Fantastic experience: Sally is a godsend. Easy to schedule, easy to re-schedule. I get email and sms message alerts regarding lessons (so i never forget!) You get a little checklist with notes on how you're doing and areas where you can improve. I always come in saying how I've been practicing at home and what I'd like to work on, and the instructor figures out where we should go to work on those. Yes, they have their own gas + brake, so if you panic or mess up, you're safe. As of April 2023, both me and my instructor wore masks in the car Coming into the actual office is a little tricky, that driveway is steep!

Fantastic experience: Best decision we made reaching out to Teen Driving Academy. Professional and accommodated our request. Thanks again for all the help and support during the course.

Fantastic experience: AMAZING DRIVING SCHOOL! They helped me with all the questions I had. They picked up and dropped off my daughter from home and all her instructors were amazing. I also had my older daughter 5 years ago go through this driving academy. Highly recommend! They also took my younger daughter to the DMV to test in their car for her Driver's License after practicing a couple hours prior to testing and SHE PASSED!!

Negative experience: They charged me $65 for canceling the class. They did not tell me while I called. They cancel my rest reservation without my consent. I already paid $1500!!!

Fantastic experience: My instructor was ALVIN. He was/is very expierenced, proffessional, attentive, really serious in explanations, right on after 15+ years of VALUED service to all ages of the community. His engagement was what I needed/wanted and YES YES got it. Thank you, ALVIN. JIm Langdon

Fantastic experience: Loved having Katherine! She was so sweet and patient

Positive experience: My instructor was spot on. Very attentive, patient, actively listened, gave great feedback and was overall professional and honest. The car we used was in great condition, always clean, had nice rear view mirrors, and gives the instructor a gas and brake pedal. My course gave me a copy of the test that the DMV testers use to grade and links for a DMV real test recorded at the different DMVs in California. This was especially helpful when we practiced the routes on my last driving lesson. The reason this is not a 5 star review was because of one thing: Time. They were unprofessional every lesson I had arriving never on time. They state after you buy their course package that to expect a 15min window of them being late for the appointment. Well my first lesson was over 30min late, and the others were over 20. It resulted in the first day of me being late to work because of this. And when I called and spoke with them on the phone, they did not refund me or in any way discount me for their unprofessional timing to the appointment. Overall great experience, just do not expect them to be on time. I had the 3 lessons 2 hour package.

Fantastic experience: The workers and management at this driving academy are phenomenal. They are super communicative and very helpful, which makes the entire process of learning how to drive way less stressful!

Positive experience: My experience with teen driving academy was alright they just tech the basics, basically what your parents could teach you. I wouldn’t say so professional but it was good to try it out, I wouldn’t go back to expensive for only 3 days and 2 hours. If you really don’t know how to drive that won’t get you a lot out of this if you only do 3 days.

Fantastic experience: I called somewhat last minute and they had no available openings. I called around to a few other local schools and they all just didn’t compare to the professionalism as teen driving academy. I called them back and asked to be put on the cancellation list. I got a call back that day! The driver showed up was so friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. My son says the 2 hour lesson was extremely helpful. My son ended up passing with only 2 points off. When he failed with a critical error 15 days earlier. I’m telling you, if you are not confident in taking the test then do a two hour behind the wheel.

Fantastic experience: Amazing driving school would recommend to every teen that needs to take behind the wheel classes they always are so professional and show up on time the most affordable driving school in the area have gotten 3 different instructors and they all are amazing 100% would recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: They are very courteous. They have been so easy to work with even during the pandemic. Their instructors are very helpful and kind. I highly recommend Teen Driving Academy.
