NEW YORK AUTO SCHOOL

Experiencia negativa: A little disappointed right now. I called as the site read they were open until 7. However, the machine picked up saying they closed at 6. I left a message as requested being told someone would call me back the next day. Well it's now two days later and no one has called back. Still I decided to check the site to book some lessons. I sent an email through the site's 'contact' option. I get a text the next day telling me to call--again. I did that already and now it's three days and no return call. A little disappointing.

Experiencia fantástica: Anthony and Mario were great! Highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent and very professional service The instructor Donald was very helpful and provides clear directions on the does and don’t for the road test Helped me pass my road test in the first attempt Thanks New York auto school

Experiencia fantástica: Recently passed the Road test, my instructor Mario V was excellent at his job. He is really patient and teaches all practical skills to parallel park and driving in general. I would definitely recommend the school to everyone who is looking to learn driving. Keep up the good work.

Experiencia fantástica: 5 hour course was fun and easy and the breaks were nice and decently long

Experiencia negativa: There was a poor internet connection and my partner was unable to sign into the zoom. He was kicked out with no refund or further communication on their part. Complete waste of money. He even paid extra for overnight delivery of a certificate of completion, which is unnecessary according to the DMV. Don't waste your time or money with this company.

Experiencia fantástica: I took the 5 hour class online with Dan Lucas and it was an amazing learning experience. He was very thorough with everything and l definitely learned a lot. I’m very thankful l scheduled this class with New York Auto School. I highly recommend this school. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: My instructor was Dan Lucas, very informative and funny all while being extremely patient. Great class, flew by quickly and was easy to understand.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an excellent driving lesson at this school with Marvin, which lead me to passing my road test! Marvin was very realistic about my driving skills, my problems, and potential for success with the test. He also gave me good tips on parallel parking and making turns. Because of my lesson, I was able to focus on my problem areas and successfully pass my road test.

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great experience for my kids to learn to drive. They felt confident and prepared.

Experiencia negativa: Took the 5 hour course where it should be a video teaching you and no you have someone act like they’re a teacher and trying to teach all 5 hours. Giving us questions and being passive aggressive the whole time when answering the questions . If this guy wanted to be a teacher so badly he should have become a teacher and not trying to degrade all of us and asking us questions that had nothing to do with the “ 5 hour course” . Asking if we know what type of oil our car takes . We not studying to be mechanics ! It’s for our road test !

Experiencia fantástica: Great Experience at New York Auto School! My experience at New York Auto School exceeded all my expectations. If you're looking to learn how to drive, this is the place to go. They really go the extra mile, not just in helping you pass the road test, but also in making sure you're confident driving in different situations. Mario is an excellent bilingual instructor, plus he's super patient and knows how to explain things in a way that just clicks. It's not all about the basics here. They teach you how to handle yourself in heavy traffic, bad weather, and other tricky situations. I left feeling really prepared for anything the road might throw at me. The team at New York Auto School is super approachable and professional. They're always ready to answer any questions and give extra help whenever you need it. Highly recommend checking them out if you're thinking about learning to drive.

Experiencia fantástica: I took most of my hours with Mario V. He calmly and clearly taught me important parts of driving, like parallel parking without a camera, and thanks in great part to him, I passed the driving test with flying colors.

Experiencia fantástica: Mario V. was my instructor, and he was really excellent. Calm, appropriate and meaningful advice. The road test can be a bit tricky and I felt super relaxed and prepared. Thank you Mario and New York Auto School - you guys are the best :)

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent instructing. Had majority of my lessons with Mario V, who was always extremely patient and clear in his instructions. Passed on my first try thanks to him!

Experiencia fantástica: I just took the pre-licensing zoom course with Joseph Griffith and he was extremely helpful! Really cleared up a variety of topics with informative and entertaining teaching methods!

Experiencia negativa: I highly do not recommend this driving school. The manager and staff are highly unprofessional and rude. The owner David Cruz represents a disreputable company. Customers BE AWARE!! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!

Experiencia fantástica: It took a couple of decades, but I just passed my road test! Joe D. and Bruce were wonderful instructors, very calm and encouraging (a complementary combination, too!). Overall a very well organized and professional company.

Experiencia fantástica: The instructors here are the best available. I had Mr. James as a primary instructor and I couldn’t of been any more confident when I passed. Thank you for all the help.

Experiencia fantástica: I want to give a special shout out to Bruce and DeFrancesco for helping me get across the finish line and passing my road test. They were very patient and professional during the lessons I had with them both. I practiced the most with Bruce; he helped me get comfortable behind the wheel, build my confidence while driving and provided constructive feedback in a positive manner. I’m a teacher and it’s not always easy being a student! Bruce is an exceptional teacher! :) DeFrancesco also had a nice personality, he did not make me feel stressed or nervous, and provided strategies to help with turning and parallel parking. On the day of the test he helped boost my confidence while at the same time, helping me practice parallel parking until I felt more comfortable. His formula worked like a charm and I am thankful for his insight and advice. Overall, I highly recommend this driving school, they have professional staff, superb instructors and excellent communication! Thank you so very much!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with New York Auto School. I had Bruce as my instructor and I passed! He was patient and polite. He made me feel confident in my driving. Thank you Bruce for your support! I would definitely recommend this driving school!

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with New York Auto school from August up until a couple weeks ago (when I passed my road test) and had an incredible experience. For the majority of my lessons I had Mario V as an instructor and he was unparalleled. Patient, calm, and always willing to teach, he never made me feel nervous while driving in the car with him. He prepared me perfectly for the road test and thus I ended up well over passing. Overall Mario was incredible and I would highly recommend working with New York Auto School! Additionally, I worked with Michael James for a few of my lessons and he was an excellent instructor as well. I had a lesson with him towards the very beginning and he was of immense assistance as I began to acclimate myself to driving. New York Auto School has no shortage of great instructors and once again I would highly recommend the school.

Experiencia fantástica: Loved it. I was so incredibly nervous about driving at first but, I knew the need to learn here in westchester. Michael James and Diego were amazing teachers who helped me build the confidence and knowledge to become a successful driver. Thanks guys

Experiencia fantástica: I had Mario as my instructor and passed on my first try! He’s amazing and straight to the point, if you are looking for an instructor and want to pass, ask for Mario! He’s the best. As well, if you are looking for someone who will work with you when you call, ask for Amanda. She is amazing and is willing to work with your schedule. Both of them made my experience a 11/10. I would recommend both to everyone I know.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been doing driving lessons with Mario V for a few months now and I have passed my road test. I felt extremely prepared and ready because of Mario.

My driving instructor was Mario V and he was a very chill and was a good instructor overall! I didn’t feel nervous at all when I was practicing with him. I practiced with him for 3 months and almost got a perfect score on my road test. Also the customer service is amazing! The people there are always nice and patient and helps you a lot! 10/10 would recommend to learn driving!

Experiencia fantástica: Mario was so helpful and got be very well prepared for my road test!! Great experience for sure!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I was fortunate to get a fantastic instructor Mario V. He was the most professional and down to Earth guy. I had a fair amount of practice going into it but was a bit nervous in regards to the “test specifications”, i.e. the little rules such as, checking your blind spot on every turn and pull out, and double stopping or not at red lights and so on. He was able to explain everything wonderfully and even gave me tips about traversing the corse itself. He walked me through the entire process and didn’t miss a beat. Overall a great experience with the school and Mario himself. Would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Mario V , Diego M . and Joe D . all are excellent instructors they believed in me , and gave great instruction !

Experiencia fantástica: Mario V is the best! He explains everything clearly and thoroughly while keeping calm throughout. He also pays very close attention to detail. With his help, I passed my road test on my first try!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely loved my lessons with New York Auto School! I’ve had a variety of instructors but none stood out more than Mario V. Mario was extremely informative, giving me the ins and outs of defensive driving, while nurturing my strengths and strengthening my weaknesses. I felt so overly prepared for the exam that when I took the actual exam, I couldn’t believe how simple it was. I am very satisfied with the service and I’d recommend it to anyone interested, especially lessons with Mario.

Experiencia fantástica: I had Mario V. before I took my test and he laid it out perfectly for me. Passed on my first try!

Experiencia fantástica: I really appreciate the instructor’ Bill Toby’ help as he is patient with me and ensures I learn well and he will repeat certain driving rules over and over until I get it. There is nothing a new student need more. Otherwise, his knowledge of the rules and law of driving is super helpful. I ended up buying more so that I am fully prepared for my road test ! Also, Ana at the front desk is the BEST! She’s so helpful and kind. Thank you, Revital

Experiencia fantástica: Mario v

Experiencia fantástica: They are great! Mario V. is very straight forward and pushes me in learning the right and safe ways in driving. I had 2 instructors, Adolofo, helped me out as well in pacing myself in being comfortable with the car. All of their instructors are very knowledgeable and will help you get ready for the road test, as well as important driving skills and habits.

Experiencia fantástica: I had my road test yesterday in New Rochelle and I passed it for the first time. I think one of the reasons why I passed was because of that 1 hr driving lesson before the road test! Believe me it’s a huge help. Mario V. from NY auto School was my instructor who did the 1 hr class and drove me to road test site! He’s amazing! He’s very strict in a good way that you will learn!! I didn’t know that I still had so much to learn and I thought I’m ready. If I didn’t take that 1 hr class before the road test, I probably fail the test! He also encouraged me to be calm and believe in myself. Not only that, after I passed the test he drove me home and he’s still teaching me about proper driving! He’s very professional. NY auto school is Lucky to have him. I recommend NY Auto school for being professional specially during this time of Pandemic! They scheduled my road test right away after being lockdown for 3 months. And Ofcourse Mr. Mario V who thought me so much in the span of 1 hr!

Experiencia positiva: Friendly costumer service, pretty clean and lovely location

Experiencia fantástica: For my road test today I got Mario V as my instructor who took me to the testing site. I have to thank him for calming my nerves before the test and him going over everything so I know what to do. He was very chill and funny to talk to. If you could pick someone to take you to the test I would ask for him.

Experiencia fantástica: Mario and Diego were great instructors. Mario was so supportive before my road test and I passed in one try!

Experiencia fantástica: Mario V was great!!

Experiencia fantástica: My two daughters had such an amazing time and learned so much with their driving instructor, Mario. He is extremely knowledgeable in every area of driving, which allowed them to gain multiple perspectives and develop their own technique in just a short amount of time. He genuinely cared about their success and safety on the road. He worked extensively on everything that would be on the test, and both of them passed on their first try, which couldn't have done it without his guidance.

Experiencia fantástica: Mario V was the perfect instructor preparing me for a perfect road test. Would certainly recommend beginner or experienced drivers to take a lesson or test prep with Mario. Thanks Mario!

Experiencia fantástica: Excelente instructor. Mario.v

Experiencia fantástica: First of all New York Auto School is a great place for driving lessons if you are in the Bronxville-Eastchester-Tuckahoe area. They are affordable and prompt. As for instructor, Mario V. is outstanding. He is patient, informative, and pays attention to each person. For myself, he understood my weakness and my strengths in driving. That's important to pay attention to each individual's needs, rather than just a generic lesson in general, as each person is different (driving skills). Mario helped me a lot in my driving confidence and his tips made the difference. If you choose New York Auto School, you should definitely ask for Mario to be your instructor. Great person and also a great instructor. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been wanting to write a review on here since summer, but Mario V. is awesome! He is very knowledgeable on driving and on all of the techniques you need to know for the road test; I'm so happy I went to him. He does not just give generic driving info, but actually observes the skills you are doing correctly and the ones you need practice on in order to help you be a great driver, which is really helpful and effective. He makes you feel safe on the road, further educates you on driving rules and is extremely patient. I passed my test on the first try! You HAVE to get lessons with Mario V if you come here. Thank you guys so much!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you to Mario V from NY Auto School for helping me pass my road test.

Experiencia fantástica: The school is really good! Conveniently located in the midtown and very helpful in accommodating your schedule. The instructor Mario V is simply amazing - calm, friendly, knowledgeable, experienced as a teacher. I passed only because of him - the way he prepared me, explained every single step and move and even described the personality of the examiners as he knows them all. I tried other instructors and really recommend to request only Mario V to prep lesson.

Experiencia fantástica: Instructors are very well prepared and experienced. Classes are very good and pre test class even better. Diego and Mario are great professionals.

Experiencia fantástica: *This is a follow up review* First off all let me say I called NYAS on Tuesday 06/11/19 with the insane hope of getting 2 lessons, the 5hr certificate and road test appointment all before 06/21/19 when I was due to leave for a month long vacation - and there for failing wasn’t an option, as crazy as it sounds they threw me a Hail Mary and came through! Wendy was amazing, I had a lesson with with Patty Clearly around Tuckahoe,NY which was just such fun on 06/15/19, then on Sunday 06/16/19 I went back out to East Chester for the 5hr certificate course and afterwards I spoke to Wendy who had managed to get me a road test for WEDNESDAY! 06/19/19! Right before the road test I had one more lesson with Joe Griffith, who was very helpful and cool, he also took me to my road test which I passed All in all the service was amazing! And the people I worked with were all wonderful and I can’t give 6 stars so 5 will have to do. *For the people who live in NYC the East Chester location is very easy to get via the metro north blue line *

Experiencia fantástica: Worth the money and worth the time. Out of all the instructors, Mario was the best and took his time to make sure I got everything right. Easy to follow and chill to talk to.
