The Hamilton’s driving instructor I was provided (Josiah) was great and SO supportive in teaching me how to operate a vehicle! He was incredibly calm, respectful, encouraging, and carefully challenged me to make decisions on the road while providing assistance and guidance. I felt safe driving for the first time with my instructor, and felt confident when I took the test at the end of the course and earned my permit.
A lot of required learning was online in the AAA program. It would take me around 1-2 hours to complete one of the 19 chapters. The chapter near the end regarding Driving in Maine was objectively the longest chapter though — almost 1 full hour of what felt like straight video and reading 127 pages from the Maine Drivers Manual. The test at the end of the course is focused primarily on driving in Maine, so I advise to pay attention to that. I also recommend planning out the days where you can expect to get work on the AAA course done, because it’s a lot to complete and it NEEDS to be done before the test date (or you’ll pay 40 dollars to reschedule). Also, make sure you log into the course on your phone so you can do it when you have free time.
I’m 17, and was apart of the newly established York, ME program. I shared a class with 2 other students, but I heard that the class after me will have 8. Overall, I think my Drivers Ed class went the best it possibly could’ve thanks to Hamilton’s Driving School.
Thanks Josiah!!

Highly recommend this driving school. Affordable, flexible schedule for driving times, and my son really liked the teacher. Online AAA part makes for less driving to classes too.

Paid a lot for our child to do drivers ed and disappointed with the experience. Kept getting stuck with the same instructor who was inexperienced and unprofessional. Talked about other students driving issues and took the same route every time. Never gave experience on the high way or any where over 45mph. Tried to ask for a different instructor and was told sorry that’s who we have available. Doesn’t make sense because there’s supposed to be six instructors and we had plenty of flexibility. Made my child a nervous driver for the first few weeks but once we had some time together doing much better and is actually a very conscientious, safe driver despite the experience in drivers ed.
The one good thing was the class time because our child definitely learned the rules of the road but that could be learned at any driving school. We were told the Saco school is better, but not sure. Either way, we definitely do not recommend the Kennebunk Hamilton’s and do not recommend driving instructor Tim. Very disappointed with the experience for how expensive the class is. Like I tell my husband, the only good thing that came of this is now we can legally help our child learn to drive. Definitely didn’t learn from Hamilton’s.
