Academy of Truck Driving

Experiencia positiva: Was very helpful and patient, showed they cared about the level of driver we became

Experiencia fantástica: I just received my Class A through the school in Oakland. I passed the 1st time. Jerry was our instructor through the whole course. He worked with us every step of the way. Teaching us step by step how to parallel park, off set park, alley dock and teaching us how to shift gears. . He encouraged us to keep going everytime we felt like quitting or we mess up on a practice test on the air brakes, coupling or our skills test. His famous words " relax and slow down". " Take your time" He is a great Teacher!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The information provided was easy to follow and understand.

Experiencia fantástica: Was reading reviews about "overpriced" and some other negative stuff. They are one of the only schools that will take you to DMV in a truck with an instructor. The snivelers with the "their mean" are slackers that think they are going to get handed their license.

Experiencia negativa: Overpriced. Unprofessional. Hurtful "teachers" and staff. Insane place that destroys intelligence, positivity and happiness. I think they are a scam just taking the money. Awful!

Experiencia negativa: i was wondering if this company offers freight broker training classes. and if not do you know of a company that does?

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! People were very helpful!

Experiencia negativa: I tried to go here but they didn't want to tell me how much it would cost out of pocket. They said they only take payments thru school loans. I still insisted how much does it cost and they told me it was 6000 dollars. They are way over priced. I went to another trucking school down the street at the time that only charged me 2500 dollars. In addition when I went to DMV to take my skills and road test one of their students failed miserably. This school is a rip off.

Experiencia negativa: Bad front desk employee. Tried to start school I called no body answer. I went there in person waited 15 minutes and told me to keep waiting even though she was there the whole time.

Experiencia negativa: I called and emailed this place regarding the courses they offer. No one calls back or responded to my email. I can't even imagine what kind of student support (NONE) if I DO get enrolled. I will take my money elsewhere.

Experiencia positiva: They're great

Experiencia fantástica: I love this school. I came never have driven a stick at all so double clutching was intimidating to me also never been in a big truck either but I can say the staff here really cares about the quality of student they put out there and while I am still a student with a couple weeks left I can say that my confidence is out the roof and I believe in myself on that road now. Off top I give my thanks and appreciation to A.J Mr. Eddie Mr. Lee and my boy Lavelle. Major props to all y'all. And can't forget Misses Connie and Keisha love and appreciation for welcoming me into your family and household. The Academy is where it's at no cap.

Experiencia fantástica: They are the masters of patience and the best teachers.

Experiencia fantástica: Lavel is the best teacher. I took my class back in 2016 and it’s been nothing but up since then. He was so helpful and went over and beyond. Such a great school. I suggest anyone interested in driving to go to this school! They are very patient and helpful!!!

Experiencia negativa: I want to join this class

Experiencia negativa: The school was fine initially. After two weeks I moved up to AJ the advanced instructor. AJ couldnt be a worse instructor if he tried. He is incredibly impatient and only knows how to yell and scream. On a daily basis he tells you he is doing you a big big favor. Yet he NEVER takes the time to explain things as a mature rational patient instructor/mentor. He yells, screams all day when he's there. The rest of the time he is off screwing around somewhere. He thinks he is the smartest person around and clearly he will never be as smart as he thinks, ever. He gets into shouting matches with students regularly. I was taken on very few drives on the street. Only two with AJ. He switches your test days at the last minute for no apparent reason. Its clear he has mental issues. He has never had real world trucking experience. He was a friend of the family who needed a job and so they trained him. I was able to finish quickly elsewhere. But I resent the time I wasted at this school under AJ. AJ is a loser doing only himself any favors. Very unprofessional and a waste of resource.

Experiencia fantástica: Really great team, professional, come through for me and all the students I studied with
