Newport Driving School

Experiencia negativa: Idk but I think the employees are lazy because they don’t do anything, they say they’ll call you back but never do. They always pretend like they don’t understand what you’re saying even though I’m word for word reading of their website?

Experiencia fantástica: Woohoo! I've finally got my Californian driving license after a ridiculously long wait. But the wait was worth it, because today I nailed the exam on the first go. Massive thanks to my awesome driving instructor Palmira! Thank you so much , for helping me master the roads. And yes, I've driven in Australia before, but driving on the other side of the road here is a whole different ball game.

Experiencia fantástica: After failing so many times, I finally passed when I went here. SO RECOMMEND!!!!! This place saved my life

Experiencia fantástica: My instructor Carlos was very knowledgeable, patient and very friendly! I learned so much from just one lesson. Carlos offered to pick me up from my home and take me to the DMV for my drivers test. We got to practice right before the test and I passed with a great score!

Experiencia fantástica: I did pass my driving test for the first time because Carlos helped me so much. He was beyond professional and nice. Did just two sessions with him and passed my test super easy. He teaches everything. i highly recommend him

Experiencia fantástica: I really got very good service and knowledge from the team and I really thank Raymond and the other person , who gave me all the tips for long term for careful driving. I really appreciate all the time and help that was provided. They are friendly and helpful. Definitely gain confidence after the practice. I definitely recommend Newport Driving school and the team over there for successful driving test and good knowledge on driving for long term. Thank you so much!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I am thrilled to share my exceptional experience with Newport Driving School and my instructor, Carlos. For years, I hesitated to get my driver's license due to anxiety, but finding Carlos was a game-changer. His expertise and dedication went above and beyond in preparing me for the driving test. Carlos is not only a superb mentor but also a genuinely kind and supportive person. Thanks to his guidance, I passed my driving test on the first attempt. I am deeply grateful for the comprehensive skills and confidence I gained from his instruction. I highly recommend Newport Driving School and Carlos to anyone looking for a top-notch driving school and instructor. Thank you for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: I placed a call for their DMV road test service (DRTS) so I could take a behind the wheel test in order to get my license. Newport Driving School replied quickly and made an appointment for me within the same hour. Not only were they respectful and courteous, but they were fast and efficient. I had an appointment within 2 weeks of me calling. All of the other driving schools I called could only set an appointment for me until around 1 or more months later. On the day of the appointment Carlos picked me up an hour before and gave me a quick and helpful warmup lesson before my driving test. Carlos gave me quick and helpful tips that helped me pass my driving test with only 2 minor mistakes (not making a full stop behind a line twice), and I admit they were mistakes that I hold all the blame for because I was nervous. Despite my nervousness, I passed and will get my license soon. I highly recommend Newport Driving School if you want to get your license as soon as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: Best driving school in southern CA. Last week, my 16 year old passed her driving test the first time!!!! -5 points only!!!! She did great!

Experiencia fantástica: I get anxious when I drive and a lot of my family members try to teach me but they don’t know how to explain certain things. When I booked my lesson with them it was quick and easy. The instructor arrived on time and answered all my questions I had for him. I was nervous at first when learning but the instructor made it easy to trust him! He was very patient with me and super nice, I still have a lot to learn so I’m looking forward in book more lessons in the future. Such an amazing driving school for beginners in oc, I’m looking forward to learn more!

Douglas is great at keeping the student calm while driving and Carlos helped me stay confident to pass my test. Overall 5 stars for sure.

Experiencia negativa: Horrible service. These people take your money then make excuses like "car broke down" or "instructor was in an accident" We have proof of this communication and want to warn everyone: DO NOT USE THIS PLACE!!
