ABSOLUTELY DO NOT GO HERE!
This happened in July of 2023. I was a student.
We paid $800 dollars for their services. For the classroom portion, the teacher was a lot more interested in rambling than teaching. About 90% of time was spent wasted. She also showed us graphic car crashes. I got nothing of value from attending here.
The classroom portion was very unstructured and we didn't get any classwork or handouts like we would in a modern classroom. There was very little teacher/student interaction. The teacher didn't seem to want to be there.
Their equipment was outdated. They still used a CRT TV and videos and textbooks from twenty years ago. They had tiny, old-school desks. Their air conditioner was broken. So the classroom was either extremely cold or extremely hot. I did not expect to need a coat in the summer. It was also dusty and generally unpleasant.
Belmont is impossible to get a hold of. Their website is outdated and clunky. They don't have an Email. In the big 2026 THEY DON'T HAVE AN EMAIL. They don't answer the phone. Their answering machine is hardly understandable. Please do not go to this place. Go anywhere else.

My niece had a good experience in the class and passed her permit on the first try. I passed permit and driving test on first try with them. They are old school when it comes to running the business. No hours so always call and expect to leave a message with a call back. Sometimes you need to call them. They never have trouble filling a seat. Their lessons get booked in advance fast so don’t expect to drive right away.

Very personable and reliable, courteous service. The owners look out in the best interest of the students. I highly recommend Belmont driving school competitive pricing. Please give them a try. You won’t regret it, Ludlow’s finest and professional driving school.

This place is great and anyone in these reviews that say otherwise are just upset that they didn’t pay attention and failed their test. The week long school was informative and the driving instructors are very knowledgeable and can teach you everything you’re gonna need to know. The woman who owns the place was always nice when I called and helped me set up times and dates for lessons that work with my schedule, I couldn’t recommend Belmont enough.

Absolute aweful! My son told me it was dreadful each Saturday while I was driving him there. I thought it was just a teenager attitude until I attended the 2 hour parent class. I learned within the first 5 minutes of the female instructor speaking ( she instructs the classes) that he was correct! A lot of verbal scolding: don't do this or your child will fail, you can't do that, placing blame on parents driving when she has no idea how any of us drive, etc.. They show a lot of videos between her scolding. No handouts in writing pertaining to the absolute "do nots or you'll fail your test!" This instructor was not open minded when I questioned if she provided visual hand outs for the do nots. She was irritated and insinuated that my honor roll student had a learning disability- in front of all parents attending. This was an absolutely ridiculous situation as she could not comprehend that not all people learn from hours of verbal scolding or gory videos. My son will complete a more knowledgeable, teacher friendly program. I love him too much to place him behind the wheel without a proper drivers education program.

Unbelievably unprofessional, drivers constantly show up to pick up kids at school 30-40 minutes late. Cold weather you child is stuck stsnding outside waiting for this irresponsible driver. i was lucky enough to wait with my child today and im furious at how they treat there clients. There is never anyone at the business to answer the phones. I amazed they are actually able to stay in business. i will never send anyone to these people.
