I took the teen classes at first to learn drive and had a great experience with my instructor. I took the driving test and passed, but never got to finish getting my certificate.
Unfortunately, I missed a couple lessons and drives and was logged out of the online course on Canvas. Since then, I have not been able to get in contact with anyone through calling or emailing them. It’s been months since my last drive and I’d sincerely appreciate a response from them.

Great driving school! Scott is the best instructor—patient, professional, and very encouraging. He made learning to drive easy and helped me build confidence behind the wheel. Highly recommend!

One of their employees was driving in a company vehicle under the speed limit and then proceeded to break check me twice. When I went around and he flipped me off and then jumped his car in front of me again right at a stoplight. There was only one person in the vehicle so I know it was not one of the people taking classes and if this is how they're instructors Drive I highly recommend going somewhere else. If their instructors can't control their temper they're going to teach the same habits to the customers. I have attempted to contact the company about it because I have the date that it happened and the license plate of the vehicle but I have not received a response.

Not to be dramatic, but Scott literally changed my life. He is THE best teacher ever. He gives the best advice/feedback, will make you feel more comfortable and confident driving, and is overall amazing. I've learned so much from him, every lesson I could feel myself becoming more confident in my driving. I have always had a fear of driving and thought I would never be able to drive on the streets, let alone get my license. After our lessons, I've been able to confidently drive on highways (you would've never caught me on there before) and pass my driver's test with a 100. I am so incredibly thankful that I chose the Behind the Wheel series and booked with Scott. I hope everyone who's considering getting driving lessons books with him so you can see how great he is. I will forever be grateful to 1st Learn to Drive and to Scott for being the most amazing teacher, I CANNOT express my gratitude for him enough. 5/5 experience!

As it stands I wouldn't recommend this establishment due to communications failure on 1st learn to Drives part. Truly disheartening...
