I had never driven a car before, so I took this course to learn from scratch. The instructor was knowledgeable and explained the driving maneuvers and everything I needed to know to pass the road test.
However, I felt that he was sometimes impatient when I made mistakes. I believe it's important to remember that people attend driving school because they are still learning, and beginners are expected to make errors.
Despite that, I passed my driving test, and I appreciate the instruction I received. I think the experience would be even better if new drivers were given a little more patience and encouragement.

Very disappointing experience.
The examiner’s accent was very difficult to understand, which made it hard to follow the instructions during the road test. For students who are already nervous, clear communication is very important. I believe examiners should speak clearly and make sure applicants understand the directions before expecting them to respond. This experience was frustrating and made the test more stressful than it needed to be.

Absolutely amazing I googled same-day drive test. He got me in a couple hours later. He was very clear on his instructions of what he was expecting. Highly recommend and a very reasonable price.

Really bad instructor, he has a horrible attitude. He made me turn into the turning lane to drive back to the office (because he keeps telling people to come even while we are on a drive for some reason) and as I’m turning, I accidentally turn into the place next to it, but instead of simply letting me turn into the place and then turn back out, the yanks my wheel and makes me drive onto oncoming traffic in the wrong way while screaming at me just so he can be on time to meet with his client. He’s extremely unprofessional, he’s on his phone most the time and when he doesn’t see me doing a head check, he hits my arm which makes me extremely uncomfortable.
He also made me take an U turn where there was a sign that prohibited U turns, simply because he needed to go back to the office to attend another client (once again) while I was doing my drive hours.

The worst driving school in Utah. I am 38 years old and I have been driving since I was 18 (for 20 years). I have been driving in Utah with my international driving license for 6 months. and I went to A Plus school for Driving test [the worst decision I made so far]. How come I failed the test in this school with a guy whose English was not his native language and only 1 hour later after I failed the test in this school I went to Drive Right school on 935 S Union Ave. and I passed the test. Can you imagine! just one hour later. That guy in A plus school gave me two 21 score only on my "Habit" and an overall of 67 which is far beyond the 20 to pass. I passed the test with 7 score in Drive Right school. That guy in A Plus has some problems.

I should have paid attention to the reviews on this guy. Did a driver's test for my daughter after spending dozens of hours on the road with her. Was advised that she missed many many head checks when she was doing turns, which is ridiculous after having observed her drive for hours without that issue. Is a very basic technique that she picked up on the first day of learning how to drive and did very well consistently for the last months.
Very disappointed that my $35 fee was stolen today. A very dishonest business to do business with.

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! At first i saw they had a terrible review online but i decided to contact them anyways because i was desperate to do a driving class. I spoke to a man over the phone who i could barely understand and he scheduled me for an appointment at 2:30pm the same day i called in. I called him back before my appointment to make sure i had everything i would need before i came down there and then he randomly tells me he is sick and no longer wants to give me the driving test. Keep in mind i scheduled with him a couple hours before i called back. The man should have informed be prior that he was sick and wouldnt be working that day. After i hang up he calls me back to argue. Talking over me the whole time. Do not waste your time with this place

I had a great experience here. There are some aweful reviews lo I mean yeah the place is pretty old and beat up. Ya know. They have old videos just like any other driving school, the chairs are set up in order like a high school classroom and it was old but still fine!!! But anyhow my teacher/ driving instructor was awesome. He was super explanatory and right to the point. I even needed records from him like two years later and he really helped me. Some people are saying he isn’t certified to do the driving test but he did mine?! I got my license shortly after going to this driving school and had no problems what so ever. Idk what all the problems are recently but I can honestly say this was one of the best for the value. There is a test at the end of every day so be prepared for long classes also! But overall I loved going here and I will always and forever remember to do a head check by the way he says it. It’s the best lmao anyhow y’all enjoy the day. If you want fast affordable and done’ I would go here.

From day one itself I thought I am taking a wrong examiner when the A+ guy told we don't except Indian license even though DMV has already accepted that they provided me a learner's permit. Somehow I manged to start my test with the examiner for the prices of $30. From his body language itself I came to conclusion he will fail me, :-( Yes he failed me. The A+ guy was insisting me take driving lessons with them. I thought OK I was driving was last 2 years should I, no I will give another test. Result, failed again. He keep on insisting me to take up a 6 hour driving training from him for a price of $220. I had given up, let's go for the driving lessons. The guy was very happy and told me that I will train you and u will pass anywhere. It was looking interesting to me. Well I felt I was driving the same way, like I use to drive, he was telling me vow u r driving excellent now. I thought cool. After burning $220 + $30 + $30 (2 test fees) he suggested me to take test again with Dan's driving school. After 6 hours of training he again started telling me you need more practice . But I opted to go for my driving test again with Dan's ($30 again). What I have heard from my friends that these 3rd party examiner's will fail you first time however good driver you may be. I was shocked to know that A+ never talked about parallel parking with bigger vehicles and Dan asked me to do that. Friends I was failed again at Dan today :-( and really feel cheated now. I am scolding myself on my decision to start my road test with A+ on the that day itself. Its money loss plus a lot of pain. To me it looks like a nexus to just eat off your money. Now I am just left with one choice to again take up test with Dan again. If I fail again this time I have start the whole process all again My suggestion is look before you leap for A+
