Ask for Nathaniel!!!! I started my lessons with zero driving experience, and Nathaniel literally took me from not knowing anything to becoming a confident driver. I had no help or practice outside of his lessons, and thanks to his teaching, I was able to pass my driving test on the first try at the Arleta DMV! He’s very patient, calm, and chill, which made learning so much less stressful. Honestly, he’s a great teacher who explains everything clearly and makes sure you feel comfortable behind the wheel. Highly recommend him! Read Less

I took Driver's Ed at Belmont High School and the class was perfect. Sophia gave us "sessions" that summarized everything in the book. She would also answer the questions we had. Thank you Ford and Sophia for helping us achieve what we see as a privilage. Read Less

Honestly, I really enjoyed this class. I learned a lot from Sophia and I'm happy that I took this class instead of waiting. I'm one step closer to getting my car keys and I really do have her to thank. Read Less

So my experience with Ford Driving School is in the form of another driver in Los Angeles driving behind a Ford driving school instructor. I say instructor because he was the only person in the car so unless the car was stolen comma which may very well have been the case and if so then I'm sorry that explains the bad driving, the driver was likely one of the instructors. So let's see right turn lane clearly marked Right Turn Only all other traffic merge left he blows the right turn and cut everybody off. You know the one you see them every morning doing that same douchebag thing that we all hate well that's what the for driving school drivers do. But then to follow it up when I was hoping that I would get close enough to write down the phone number to the company he approached the left hand turn lane and although the light was already read and I figured I would be able to pull up next to him he sped through the light I'm blown away I mean I understand living in the big city you do need to have to learn to drive aggressively but this takes the cake. The only follow-up would be when I called to speak with a supervisor and was met with a slightly pleasant but mostly sarcastic receptionist who informed me that aside from the manager the buck stops with her and that he won't be in for another day and that if I'd like to I guess I can leave my phone number so if you want to learn to drive by bending the rules and Cutthroat this is the place for you. This will be fun when I download my driving cam to see how much of this got caught on film wait for the YouTube! Read Less

I made an appointment at 8am, but the instructor named Hector never showed up. He finally called at 8:10am to inform that he was running late and would like to postponed it to 8:30, so I agreed. By 8:40, there was still a no show, but he called and said that he couldn't find my place. He actually ended up on the other side of town. How could a driving instructor with over 30 years of experiences without any sense of direction? I then called the office, and the person told me he did write down the correct address. He said he would find out what the problem was, but he never called back to either follow up or apologize. Read Less

The instructor assigned to me, Mohammed, has been in the business for years and thus comes across as an expert but never intimidating. Instructors also have to be socially competent to be able to carry not just the lesson but a conversation as well, and Mohammed does it pretty good. He knows the city since he?s lived here for quite a while now and actually struts a little tour guide stint whenever in touristy places. The only thing I didn?t like about Ford is that they let students pick-up other students. For the last several minutes spent on driving to the next student?s location, the current student?s itinerary and lesson points become limited. We also ended the last session 10 minutes short.
