160 Driving Academy of Bensenville

Experiencia fantástica: Best move I've ever made. Anna was very helpful with getting me setup and any questions I had after. The Niles yard is definitely the one to learn at. Archie, Chino, Ms. P and Joel are a really well greased machine. If they can't teach you, nobody can.

Experiencia fantástica: Overall, great place to get your CDL. Everything is made easy in regards to what you need to do, where to go, etc. The learning part is entirely up to the Student. While some of the yard instructors may be a bit on the aggressive side, they are experienced and know what they're talking about, and what you need to get your license. I would say it's not for the faint of heart but then again, this industry is not for the faint of heart. I highly recommend this Academy to anybody looking for move into the commercial driving industry!

I highly recommend 160 Driving School to anyone seeking top-notch CDL training. Thank you again to the entire staff for a fantastic learning journey! I hope to see you all in the near future

Experiencia negativa: Place is a money scam. You are in class for a week watching videos and then they send you to Niles at “yard” with 3 trucks. There’s a line of people waiting to hop on the truck and learn with 3 instructors 1 for each truck. You basically have to learn on your own. Instructors just sit back and watch you and dont care. Which they will tell you straight up. Your outside in the cold. Would of thought with the amount of money you pay you would at least get some kind of shelter with heat. Nothing. Stay away! Go to a better academy.

Experiencia positiva: I Really Like The the driving school they teach you a lot and you will get your license with them go to 160

Experiencia fantástica: best driving school around!! highly recommend if you’re looking to get your CDL!

Experiencia fantástica: Great school as long as you pay attention and do what they tell you, then you will get your license. Show up and learn every day.

Experiencia fantástica: Great school! Highly recommend very professional. They help you out as much & are patient with you with everything !

Experiencia fantástica: Earned my CDL 1.19.24!!! I looked at alot of trucking schools in the area and felt they were disorganized and kind of giving me the run around and very expensive. 160 DriveAcademy was not that way. Anna was my point of contact in Bensenville and got me into class on the day i went in to meet her (start every monday). My yard time was completed in Niles. All the instructors there have decades of trucking experience.. Mrs P, Archie, Chino, Keith, Hugo and Joel are all the yard instructors i interacted with in Niles. I dealt with each one and different points of training and have no complaints and each has great nuggets of advice. Very happy with my decision on this school and so is my wallet.

Experiencia fantástica: Marsha and Stacie they both gave me confidence that I can do it even at the age of 60. There is no words to appreciate Chino. Joe wants you to succeeds even he wil give you early or late hours,one step at time to pass,rain or snow just dont giveup. I sure recommond.I try many options just waist of money. Thanks to every one at 160. Anwar

Experiencia fantástica: I love 160 , from the classroom to the yard , all of the instructors were amazing. I’ll definitely remember every last one of them. I just want to give them the biggest thanks for pushing me and giving me pep talks when I needed them. Thanks 160 !

Experiencia fantástica: Best CDL instructors you can ask for everyone does a great job getting you right! Thanks Joel, Chino, Hugo, Kieth , Archie, and Petia

I wholeheartedly recommend 160 Driving Academy Truck Driving School to anyone pursuing a career in trucking. Thank you , Joel, Chino, Archie, Petia for taking the time to really prepare me for my CDL. Anna from the branch office was also instrumental in guiding me through the entire process Send a message

Experiencia fantástica: Joined 160 driving academy, and they have the best instructors!

Experiencia fantástica: Good school helped alot

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down the best training possible, here’s a list of names of the instructors who teaches me everything I know about trucks Keith, Archie, Chino, And last but not least Joel They were great teachers and got me prepared for the road! Not so great instructors Dave Dave was lazy and rude, didn’t do anything, left his trash in trucks, Cursed students out Called students names and more. Other than Dave, the 4 instructors that I named made the process easy for me and helped me along the way to get my CDL!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to learn if you’ve your head switched on and willing to learn I just passed my training today

Experiencia fantástica: If you don’t get a liensce it’s because you either quit or you weren’t paying attention

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to go to school Anna was very helpful in the classroom.

Experiencia fantástica: Just graduated 4-14-23, but first thing first , greatest people to help you go through process and making sure you will get CLASS A CDL, dream accomplished. Don't look for other schools, even if is little farther from your location, 160 Driving Academy is the BEST under rain , snow or sun . Marta office manager is on top of all paper work , and she will prepare you 100% to start education at 160DA, don't sleep at class and you will go through with no pain, Chino great guy with lots of positive attitude and humor, will make sure you 100% about ; in cab , combinationconnections, and part A B C, about combination vehicle, when you ready with this ,he will send you to Joe to learn skills, but don't ask Chino , 10 times in first week , when I will start straight back, he will know when , then Joe will explain how to straight back with precision from startto end line , then perfect offset park , and finally perlow parking semi with trailer , then finally when Joe decided you ready for road skill, you will go with Hugo over the streets. Pay attention when Hugo is correcting your mistakes, never be offended, by him or Chino and Joe , they push you hard forward to help you go and get your CDL . So when Hugo is saying you not double clutching, don't back talk to him you double clutching, basically you lying your self , it's simple. Good luck to all new students , and to ; Marta , Joe , Chino and Hugo , all you keep your smile and good humor every day , you doing super great job , keep it going, and thanks for your help with getting my CDL A , 53 YEARS OLD Piotr Kondratowicz (Pete)

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend 160! Marta was extremely helpful throughout the WHOLE process & I really appreciate that. Dave is very knowledgeable and was great at teaching general knowledge in the classroom. Chino, Joel & Hugo are great Yard instructors yes they can be tough on you but it is only because they want to see you succeed. These guys are extremely knowledgeable and do a great job at preparing you for all the state exams! I truly appreciate Chino he’s the best!! From day one he was very patient with me and ALWAYS went out of his way to make sure I understood everything. Chino is the instructor for pre trip but he helped me with everything, Pre trip, Skills & Road. Anything I was having a hard time with Chino put in extra work to help me understand it and never once got frustrated with me! If you want to really learn how to become a truck driver look no further 160 is the best way to go !!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I just finished this intensive yet very well-run program - very impressive! Marta the Branch Manager was incredibly helpful and she greatly simplified the whole process. Also, the driving/yard instructors (Joel, Chino, and Hugo) are incredibly knowledgeable and very good at what they do. I passed all the tests on the first attempt because of their expertise. I highly recommend this school to anyone wanting to get their CDL! Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

Experiencia positiva: Was curious if this is the right address for the Bensonville location as I went there to get information and when I arrived, it was some type of store

Experiencia fantástica: It was a great experience starting from Martha setting everything up and walking through all the steps to Dave going over all the need to know information throughly. When moved to the yard even tho it was cold all three instructors Joel, Chino, and Huego taught, explained and gave all the information needed to learn, understand all the information. Chino explaining all the incab, connections and pre trips to great extent. Then Joel explaining the skills part to how to accurately perform each of the skills needed to know. And Huego taking the time to explain, demonstrate and correct on each mistake made without discouraging you from learning the proper way to learn how to drive a tractor trailer combination. Highly recommend and am thankful to have the opportunity to come and learn from each one of them from the life experiences of being a truck driver. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: U know big thanks to Hugo guys a great instructor pushed me to my best. Chino and joe are also great instructors and they will be hard on u but they want u to do ur best and push u. Fuk Harvey I’m glad the location is in Niles, big thanks for having me back to redeem myself truly and the school is great it’s pricy but I’ll say it’s well worth it. I can’t thank these guys enough and Marta is awesome to, dzien kuje.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend this school for anyone serious about getting into this profession. Joel, Chino and Hugo are incredible instructors, and Marta is fantastic if you need anything. They all work very hard, and take extra time out of their personal lives to make sure the students are well prepared. I have nothing negative to say about this school or the instructors, and appreciate the knowledge and skill they have provided.

Experiencia fantástica: Great! I highly recommend this school it’s a good opportunity to learn! awesome people awesome instructors

Experiencia fantástica: It took me a while but I finally got done with school and got my CDL , shout to Joel and Chino , if you guys are gonna sign up to a 160 driving school sign up here they will make sure you pass they can be hard on you but it’s all worth it at the end they make sure you pass no matter what , had a bad experience at the Harvey location that I do not recommend it is nothing compared to here .

Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience at 160! The instructors there are great at what they do. Chino Joel and Hugo are exceptional! They are concise and to the point and absolutely hilarious. The amount of 1 on 1 instruction I was able to receive really helped me get through each stage of getting my cdl. They are passionate with what they do and will do everything in their power to get you to leave with a CDL and I can't thank them enough for that! The ladies in the office are also amazing, they helped me out with so much behind the scenes. They are quick with answering any question and provided me with the best route to take to solve any issue I had. The whole team is top notch for sure and I'm so grateful to have worked with them!

Experiencia fantástica: 160 is the best. Whether your doing 240 hours or 160. The instructors there are top tier. And Marta in the office is awesome! From the time I first went to check it out she made me immediately feel at ease. They will give you everything you need to get your Class A. Chino knows his stuff! And he’s going to make sure you know yours. Joe is going to give you the push you need to perfect your skills. And Hugo is going to make sure you know what your doing behind that wheel on the road. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me to succeed. My hats off to all of them. They definitely earned the title 160!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had great experience going to this school. The instructors (Joel,Chino,Hugo) are tough on you but they all want you to pass and get your CDL.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience at this Location… I don't know about anywhere else, but They Cool. Chino was super helpful and Explained all areas of The Pre-Trip Perfectly. Joel has his heart in it so he’s very invested. His efforts to make sure you hit your goal every time will Show. Hugo (Top Tier) For Real! Thats my boy right there. He’s easy going but Firm! He’s going to make Sure you’re ready for the road. RECOMMEND!!

Experiencia fantástica: Got my CDL today thanks to JO , HUGO , CHINO for the lessons they showed me started off rough in the beginning but pulled through it remember don’t give up keep going it’s all part of the process in what they do to get you to succeed ! Remember be smooth you gon get there! Thanks to Maggie and Martha as well! Took all test one day past all !

Experiencia fantástica: I would highly recommend this school. Joel, Chino, and Hugo are great instructors. These guys give you what you need to get your CDL and if you actually study and go home and do the work you won’t have any issues here. It’s though love if you can’t handle that don’t know what to tell you. Maggie and Marta are awesome people and help make the process super easy to understand. Everyone here is funny 100/10 go to this school.

Experiencia fantástica: Very good school and friendly instructors

Experiencia negativa: Be careful here! A lot of students(especially the non latino) students have complained of racism and discrimination practaces against some of the instructors here. Theres a difference between being strict and verbally abusive. Also some of the instructors will talk bad about the other students behind their backs. You'll get your cdl but compared to other recent grads you'll know alot less at your first job.Wouldn't recommend this place.

Experiencia negativa: There is a lot of bad mean trainers be careful

Experiencia fantástica: Best school with helpful teachers i learn a lot thank you guys

Experiencia fantástica: Before I started school I was nervous only because I wanted this so bad and just wasn’t sure how hard it was gonna be but all those fears went away the day I started thanks to 160 school academy it was a great experience and the instructors were hands on between them and me wanting this more then ever I now have my cdl and can’t thank them enough!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Instructors were great, a ton of material to memorized but giving in a very affective way that builds based on what we've learned. It has been a great pay it forward atmosphere where everyone helps each other succeed. Office staff was a pleasure to work with since the very beginning.

Experiencia fantástica: Best school to go to, awesome people they really pour their heart out and it shows

Experiencia fantástica: Would highly recommend! Finished and got my license early. Great instructors! Joe, Chino & Mark I can’t thank you guys enough! I am a truck driver thanks to you guys! They take their time to make sure you understand and know what you’re doing. All the instructors put in the time to make sure you’re capable of passing the exam. Great school 100% recommend! I can’t forget about Maggie! She made sure I was comfortable the whole time I was there! Ever time I would cross paths with her she will always asked if everything was ok! Don’t look any further! This is the place to start to become a truck driver!

Experiencia fantástica: This is honestly the best school around. Don’t waste your valuable time looking elsewhere for the best training around. All of the instructors are amazing, and take this very seriously. Joel and Chino push you to always do better, even if your doing good they let you know your alright and to do better. Even when I went to the DMV they said this was the best school available. So I definitely recommend this school.

Experiencia fantástica: I just graduated from 160 in Bensenville a couple of days ago and I will say I felt very prepared to pass my exams. I passed on the first try and it was all thanks to Joe, Chino, and Mark. The instructors can be harsh on you but I promise it’s for the good!! They want you to graduate just as much as you do and especially prepared knowing all your information. The only way you will pass is if you do YOUR end of the bargain and study. They will feed you information that may seem overwhelming at first but you’ll get the hang of it. Don’t be scared to ask questions, they are there to help you. The ladies in the office were very nice. Maggie made sure that I was always comfortable especially since I was a woman and made my experience much smoother. Overall I enjoyed my experience here.
