JA & Soares Driving School

Fantastic experience: My daughter was previouly enrolled at another driving school but my daughter had horrible experience there. So I had called JA Driving school for additional lessons and to assist my daughter in obtaining her license. Joe was wonderful instructor and my daughter only had good things to say about him. Joe made her feel at ease.He was very patient with my daughter (who was a nervous driver) and my daughter was able to pass and obtain her license and she wouldn't have done it without joe helping her get comfortable behind the wheel. He is also very kind and easy to talk to. I highly recommend this driving school esp. for teen drivers who are just starting to drive.

Fantastic experience: My daughter used Joe for both drivers ed and driving lessons. She passed her road test for her license fine on the first try. We had an overall positive experience.

Negative experience: My experience with J A Soares as a parent has been negative. My child, who is learning to drive there, has described some upsetting interactions with the instructor. In addition to that, the instructor actually insulted my driving skills, using my child's current abilities as the basis for the remarks. Furthermore, I'm not confident in the feedback we've received about my child's driving progress; it doesn't seem to align with what I've experienced in their current skill level.

Negative experience: I never used this driving school, but oh my God the instructor with the student driver almost caused an accident with me. He had her turn right into globe St. coming from Vale St.She never looked for any vehicles and I had to slam on my brakes on a rainy day I slid everywhere. There was a bus behind me which almost crushed me And when I got out say he almost hit me this Portuguese man who is the instructor said to me and I quote “emma vot kaga” I just called the driving school to file a complaint, and he put the blame on that pour student and he wasn’t even there Meanwhile, everything was done in front of Amaral’s and I’m sure they’ve got cameras to prove what just happened my camera was on catching everything going on my phone was recording the conversation because i put him on speaker and he’s telling me that I just want money and I’m gonna put the stuff on Facebook which i never said ,Bad experience, and I have never even gone to the school. it’s not even the student drivers fault because after all, she’s been instructed to do things by the instructor but the school said that it was all the student drivers fault. and on top of all of that, he did not believe anything and when I said that I had witnesses drivers and cameras, he hung up on me extremely unprofessional,do not send your children to be taught to drive to this school. I’m glad I never did.

Fantastic experience: Joe was the greatest he really help me in I thank him so much the test was hard but joe totally help
