Don't waste your time and money. Rude staff who answer the phone. The actual education aspect was just some long winded lady talking about herself most of the time. You learn nothing but about her neighbors, grandkids and herself. Then when you get to the actual driving they expect you to know what you wasn't taught despite the fact that you paid to learn it. Getting an appointment to drive takes over a month compounding your inability to learn how to drive through them. Then they are not helpful AT ALL and place all the blame on you.

Completely disorganized and very unprofessional.
The classroom aspect was easy enough to complete online. However scheduling the driving appointments is a nightmare.
One employee was completely rude and didn't answer my questions. The other one was too busy to give me other appointment dates. They ask customers to give dates they're available to drive and to submit them by email. Then you have to wait two or three days for someone to call you back and tell you they dont have those days available. I paid $1,000 for a gigantic headache if I could go back or switch schools I would do it immediately but it's not possible without losing your money

I have just had my second child graduate and get their license. I can not praise them enough. They put expectations on the families where they belong. It is our job to do the ground work and make sure we are driving with our children. Six months of supervised driving is not a lot. They will definitely teach your child the technical skills they need to be successful. Reagan(I hope I spelled that correctly) was AWESOME!! My daughter Ella raved about her, and to be honest every instructor she had was great and no nonsense she enjoyed every time she had a driving hour. I know waiting is tough. Signing up for driving hours can be tough depending on your availability, but they really do a great job at ensuring your child has completed their hours within the 6 months. I just want to say thank you!!!

Absolutely absurd how long hours take to book. I finished paying in July and signed up for hours immediately. To date, i have only had 2 hours of driving time. Its ridiculous. All my hours are a month apart. I call all the time to ask if there are any cancellations and one of the receptionists is always super rude about it. They clearly care more about money than their students’ experience. Like why would you take in more students if you can’t give people their hours in a reasonable amount of time??? Complete waste of $800 would NOT recommend ssda to anyone. I will be 18 before i even finish my hours 👎👎👎👎

This driving school takes for ever to get your driving hours done. The front desk employees never answer the phones even though they are sitting there doing nothing half of the time. If you fail a driving test with them you have to pay a additional 175 dollars just to use thier car. Overall I would not recommend this driving school at all.

If you want to complete a driving course in under a year South Shore Driving Academy is NOT the place to go. They fill classrooms with students knowing they cannot accommodate driving hours.

Bad, awful, terrible are the words that come to mind when I think of this school. The teachers are great, but the management is arrogant. First, you can only book one appointment at a time. And then it can be weeks before your next appointment can be scheduled. Then they will call to cancel/reschedule your appointment, and if you cannot accommodate the change, you are delayed again. And if that is not bad enough, they will bill you for a cancellation fee, even if it is there own fault, by their own admission. Go anywhere but here!
