I had Nancy Colon as my instructor for my driver’s test, and she was amazing. She was very kind, made sure I felt comfortable, and helped create a calm environment throughout the test.
One thing I really appreciated was that at the end of the test she started a conversation with me, which gave me a good feeling that everything had gone well. It helped take away a lot of the stress.
The cars were also in great condition. Before coming here, I had taken a test with DriveSafe and had a terrible experience. The instructor there wasn’t pleasant, and the vehicles were in poor condition. The difference here was night and day. The cars were much nicer, and all of the instructors seemed like they genuinely enjoyed their jobs and cared about the people they were helping.
Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone taking their driver’s test.

Today on July 10th from 12:30-2:30 I had the driving instructor Luis Hernandez for private lessons. I got the driving score on the app 10/10 for the first time ever, and he was extremely calm, supportive, and fun to talk to. I learned a lot and had fun speaking to him which made the experience amazing.

American Driving Academy got me in for my drive test the same day. When I walked in, they were friendly and told me they could get me in within 20 minutes. They gave coffee and cookies while I waited. I had Kevin as my tester and he made the test very stress free. After I passed he gave me great information on how to get my license. Would highly recommend!

This driving school is great! They can get you in very quickly, and have a lot of flexibility 7 days a week. I did lessons and the test. The instructors I had for my lessons all were very professional, and made me feel comfortable. I came into lessons not knowing how to drive, but I feel confident driving anywhere now. I passed my drive test with flying colors. Thank you American Driving Academy!

I had a really good experience in my driving test with Lin, she was really clear and thorough with the directions since the beginning. When I started the test I was really nervous because this was my first experience driving in the United States, but Lin made me feel relax and comfortable. I passed my driving test and at the end of the experience she gave me some advices on how to improve my driving skills, so I am thankful and happy with the American Driving Academy.

Absolutely wonderful experience. I took my driving test here with Beth. She's a really sweet lady and we had a lovely conversation before and after the test. During she tried to help me not be nervous and gave clear direction. Once the test was over she immediately told me what I could improve on and that I passed. Be sure to make an appointment and you are prepared and you'll do great!

The instructors and testers are truly professional. Most have an extensive backgrounds in education and other fields that make them perfect to teach or test new drivers. I know the Colorado driving test is not hard, but is graded very critically. Below average driving skills won't pass, so the instructors are dedicated to produce better than average drivers with a focus on safety. This business is first rate.

They're nice if your parents are around but, once you start your test they'll yell at you for any and every little thing. Unless you're one of their students of course. And something they won't tell you is that if you fail you are charged 15$ that must be paid at a county office not a DMV. Go to the DMV, better service and attitudes at the DMV.

It was a great experience both in the classroom and on the road, Mrs. Beth taught me a really good trick to learn how to parralell park.
I'm kind of mind boggled by the negative reviews, including people calling them racist, no one there came off as racist in my time learning in the building with myself or others. Also, while on the road Mrs. Beth was nothing but really helpful and really talkative giving me good critique.
I'll end up reccomending this school to my friends in the future and my little cousins and nieces when they get old enough to want to learn how to drive. They know there stuff man and made me manageable enough on the road.

I am taking driving classes with Beth. Initially, I did not have any driving experience when I started class. Beth was/is very patient and explains me each and every concept about driving, road rules, safety measures, etc. She is also attentive to all my movements and expressions and guides me accordingly. Now, I am more confident about training. I appreciate her effort.
