I can not say enough good things about this driving school. We didn't have any issues. My daughter scheduled all her lessons on time, and received her permit and license on schedule. Kristen was her driving instructor and my daughter alway's felt at ease with her. Thank you Olbash driving school for such a wonderful experience!!

Olbash School of Driving provides excellent instruction and they truly care about their students’ success. The instructors are friendly, patient, and take the time to make sure every student feels confident behind the wheel. What really stands out is their honesty, if a student isn’t quite ready for the road test, the instructors will have an open conversation with the parents to ensure the student gets the right amount of practice and support. Their teaching style builds both skill and confidence, and their prices are very fair for all the services they offer. I highly recommend Olbash School of Driving to anyone looking for professional, caring, and effective driving instruction!

A lot of difficulty scheduling regular lessons, followed by then forgetting to schedule my road test. Would maybe be an okay school if he bothered to hire good administrative support staff. As it is, don’t go here if you want to get your license in a timely manner. Also be prepared that if you are an adult learner, particularly a woman, he will speak to you like you’re a child.

I didn’t take my driving school here when I went years ago. But Mr. Olbash was my history teacher and as a man in my mid 30s still consider him one of the best teacher I’ve ever had in an any educational or professional setting. Not sure why the few random negative reviews are here. But there’s no doubt in my mind that you’ll be happy going here and learn more than enough to make you a safe driver. You’re the man Mr. O!
I still remember what stone my class was named after 😂

My son took the class room prep and exam and the owner is refusing to supply the letter of completion trying to force us to use their road driving course. My other two children took Triad in Beverly and received their certificates of completion the day they passed the class.

We used Olbash School of Driving for my son and just signed up my second son. Wonderful to work with and a knowledgeable and supportive instructor. My son felt like he learned a great deal and was well prepared for his driver's test. I also appreciated the ease of scheduling and that you could arrange for the school to take them for their road test. Very happy!

I just saw a car with Olbash sign on it. Three adults are sitting in the car smoking. I doubt their cars are guaranteed to be smoke free environments.

My daughter did not start out at Olbash. She took the classroom portion at another school in Haverhill, one that her older sister used a couple of years ago. However, it was so difficult to schedule drive time. I would call and leave a message on their answering machine, then they would call me back in a day or few and leave me a message. If we ever finally connected, I could schedule 1 or 2 lessons but they were often for 3-4 weeks out. It would have taken 6 months to work all the drive time in. I begged for a refund and finally got one. I had heard good things about Olbash, so I called and Ed answered the phone immediately. We signed on with him and my daughter completed her driving time within 6 weeks, which was good because she was very busy with school and extracurriculars. I never had to leave a message at Olbash. The phone was always answered. In addition, my daughter really benefitted from his instruction and she is a very good driver. He took her to her exam and she passed with flying colors. Olbash is highly recommended by our family; we will use again in a couple of years.
