For years, our family has trusted Braga’s Driving School, and I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about them. Both of my children learned to drive there, and now I’m hoping my grandchildren will one day do the same. What always stood out to me was their patience, professionalism, and the genuine care they show each student. Learning to drive can be stressful and nerve-wracking, especially for young or nervous drivers, but the instructors at Braga’s have a calm and encouraging way of building confidence behind the wheel. It’s clear they treat their students like family, not just another appointment on the schedule. Over the years, they’ve built a terrific reputation in the Elizabeth area for helping students feel comfortable, prepared, and safe on the road. Many families, including ours, continue to recommend them generation after generation — and that says everything. It’s rare to find a business that maintains such consistency, kindness, and dedication through the years. We’re grateful for all the guidance they gave my children, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a driving school they can truly trust. Congratulations primo! Way to go! Your dad would be so proud! Read Less

My family has known Fernando for so many years. I loved taking classes with him. I was very nervous to take my road test & after having a few classes with Fernando I felt so much calmer . I could relax more on the road. I loved learning to parrel park with him & just have him talk & explain everything calmly to me.

I have been searching for a good and reputable driving school for my son Anthony and after reading Braga Driving School reviews, I was very impressed and knew that Braga Driving School would be able to teach my son Anthony. Fernando was very professional and so polite over the telephone. I scheduled several sessions. Fernando had a great sense of humor and a positive attitude. I was happy to hear that Braga Driving School service all types of areas and all types of cities. Fernando gave my son so much confidence and reassuring that he will pass the test. The day of the road test 7/14/16, Fernando picked up my son in the morning 7:00 a.m., to practice for 1 hour and drove to Edison MVR for the road test at 8:00 a.m. I am very happy to say that my son Anthony PASSED his road test. Thank you so much Fernando for your hard dedicated work and most of all building Anthony's confidence! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for high quality education at a great value.

My husband and I were extremely nervous to allow our only baby to get behind the wheel. After speaking to Fernando the owner we felt a bit better, but after watching him guide her through the in's and outs of the vehicle and what and how to do what she needed to do we knew we made the right choice!! Thank you Fernando for all your help! Read Less

Fernando is a great instructor. He gives you so much confidence that he magically makes the process fast and simple. His small car is great for your driving test, makes it so much easier to parallel park. Passed my driving test from the first time after only 6 or 7 lessons. Best driving school in the area. Good luck with your business! Read Less

I've searched many years for a great driving instructor . Being that I'm 27 , acquiring my license has been a 10 year journey. With 1 month till my permit expired , I finally reached out to Braga after reading amazing Google reviews of the primary instructor Fernando.  So I've never driven in my life ( not even around the block ) and had 1 month to become sufficient.Are you shocked he took on the challenge !? I was ! From the very 1st lesson , Fernando was amazing. He continuously built my confidence , reassured me with constructive criticism , & most importantly had faith in me. For 6 weeks he promptly scheduled 1-2 , 2 hour lessons & arrived to my home on time for each session.  He assisted me on scheduling my drivers exam, the morning of , he picked me up 2 hours earlier & really worked on perfecting my comfort with operating the vehicle . He required me to perform a mock test of the location I chose ( Edison ) and it was exactly how it was the morning of the test .   So I had no jitters or fear of the unknown , low & behold ; I passed :) after 10 years , FINALLY some one said " you can do this ! " ( for those who aren't blessed w great parents / support network /spouse & are just on your own ) . Thank you Fernando , Thank you Braga Driving school . There is no dollar amount or value that can measure with your passion that goes beyond professionalism to change the lives of others.  Caring , genuine , authentic , bonafide & sincere are just a few of the adjectives that describe this business & its mission.
