Amazing instructors! Very patient and taught material very well. Highly recommend!
Carlos was a great instructor he was very knowledgeable and patient and would politely correct any mistakes you would make. I was struggling with turns and he helped me improve on those as well as navigate me through the main roads. It was a very pleasant experience.
I would like to share my extremely pleasant experience with Compas Driving School here. The instructor was very patient and Insightful all the time. They are always ready to work with everyone - no matter, you are a new immigrant or a young learner, You will feel very comfortable and encouraged in this learning process. I highly recommend this driving school for anyone who has a need.
Very disappointing experience for a beginner learner I had a very disappointing experience with Campus Driving School, especially with my first two lessons with instructor Nazhia. Before enrolling, I clearly explained that I was a beginner and needed to start from the basics—steering control, left and right turns, reversing, parking, and building confidence on local roads. I paid $510 in cash with the expectation that I would receive patient, beginner-focused instruction. Unfortunately, during both of my first two lessons with Nazhia, I was taken onto the highway and expected to drive around 65–67 mph, even though I had not yet developed basic steering control or confidence on local roads. I specifically requested before my second lesson that we focus on the fundamentals, but I was told to practice those skills with my husband instead. I also felt that the instructor was not providing enough hands-on teaching. There was significant time spent on the phone, and at times the instructor was controlling the brake and steering while I was driving, which gave me very little opportunity to actually learn and build confidence. What was most discouraging was the instructor’s attitude toward me as a learner. I felt criticized and demotivated rather than encouraged. I feel that my first two lessons were essentially a waste of the $510 I paid. When I contacted the office about compensation classes or an alternative solution, I was disappointed that they were not willing to provide a satisfactory resolution. My last session with another instructor, Alm, was actually okay, which showed me that the issue was not simply my ability to learn—it was the quality and approach of the instruction I received during the first two lessons from Nhazia. Overall, I am very disappointed with the service and feel that $510 was wasted for those first two lessons. If you are a beginner who needs patient, step-by-step instruction, I would strongly recommend asking detailed questions about the instructor and teaching approach before choosing Campus Driving School. I hope the school takes this feedback seriously and improves how beginner learners are treated. Learners need encouragement, patience, and proper instruction—not criticism or pressure before they are ready.
It is very unfortunate to hear your experience. Nazia is a rock star of driving and loved across the board for her patient and motherly teaching approach. We do this for a living on a daily basis and know what the students need to learn and focus on. It is ironic you are telling your instructor who has 20 years of experience teaching, what you want to learn and what is important while you claim yourself to be a beginner. No one learns driving in six hours, they learn it after the basics with the instructor and getting to know the car and brake, wheel, gas use and then months of practice. You seem to also worry more about your $510 instead of you learning. Nazia is a State famous instructor and no one else can match her skills when it comes to teaching driving, go through our hundredsof reviews as a proof. I am confident you will see the difference when you go with another instructor. Nazia said you asked her to take you to the intersection and highway, then said take me to local, flip and flop not letting the instructor actually train you. In the end, we wish you best of luck. Hope you find a better instructor than Nazia.
