Parker, my son, had a great experience at 911 driving school. He has autism and needed an instructor that could be firm and patient and consistent with each drive lesson. Carmen is that instructor. She stayed calm while teaching Parker, and encouraged him as his skills grew each week. She gave specific items to work on and even let me go on a ride along to see exactly how she taught Parker. She really cares about making good drivers, not just passing the driving exam. Delon was wonderful too, for one lesson. He gave Parker great feedback that helped him feel confident that he could pass his drive test. I have two other children that went to a different driving school in the area, and 911 is far superior!

Very Satisfied service. Great driving Instructors, accommodating and friendly staffs. I am an immigrant and need to drive in American soil 😄took an adult driving lessons here and also the knowledge and road test. Thank you to the amazing driving teacher Sir Delon Ridke. Happy to say, I passed! 🚘 If you are scared on the road like me and need to build confidence in driving. I highly recommend 911 Driving School Kent WA

I highly recommend this school to all new students. I’ve had a driver’s license from another country for over 10 years, and I needed to take the driving exam to drive in the U.S. I took one driving lesson with Carmen and a warm-up session with instructor Delon. Both were professional, calm, and supportive. I passed my driving test easily with a perfect score—100% and no mistakes. Delon was especially helpful, answering all my questions and explaining everything clearly and in detail.
I wish them all the best — they’re truly dedicated and passionate about what they do.

Very pertinent and logical driving instruction with the insight of law enforcement. Both my kids have gone through this driving program. Worth the time and money. I'm certain my 16 year old toll everything to heart and is a better driver for having attended this school!

Great driving school. A little expensive but a great time overall. The instructors are nice and know what their doing. Rafael and Brendon are amazing instructors and give great feedback on drives and in class. The only thing I have to say is that drives are kind of hard to get scheduled because they fill up fast. Other than that, a great school!

I was doing adult driving lessons at the school. I had a great experience with office Mark. He was very patient and very detailed in his explanations. I passed my driving test on the first attempt.

I am 43 years old I never drive in my life because I worked for almost 18 years in a cruise ship in Europe. Was a great experience to me I took 10 lessons and now I got my first Driver License. The cars that you will practice are new, super clean, the instructors are amazing. I want to tell Rick Hinz thanks a lot !!! for your patient with me, you gave me confidence that I can do it and I did. If you have any family that needs to learn how to drive look for him. He is always happy, respectful, he has a lot of positive energy with any new students.

The teachers are all really nice and they teach you really well. All of the instructors all have your best interest at heart. It might be a little pricey but it's worth the extra money.

I recently took the driving classes and the instructors are so nice and are so easy to talk to. Also, during the classes the instructors, former police officers, have stories to tell with every lesson. This helps the student because then they can learn from other people's mistakes. Lastly, during the drives the instructors have casual conversations with you and it keeps the drives stress free. Thank You 911 driving school!

Rafael was a great instructor and provided a great classroom experience. Â My daughter enjoyed the class and seems to have a good understanding (at least as much as a teenager can have) of what it takes to be a good, safe driver. Â It is great to see her so excited, yet cautious about driving. It takes a calm and patient person to teach teen driving. Â All three instructors (Rafael and the others who instructed the in-person drives) did a great job of providing direct, constructive feedback and reinforcing the positives - making this a great learning experience for her. Aside from a few technical issues with signing up for drives, this experience has been much, much better than my older daughter's at another driving school. I was a bit skeptical about the higher price, but friends' recommendations and the company reputation convinced to sign up with 911 - I'm happy we did!

My son took a driving test two times here, and failed both. Â That was his error, but the comments the instructors made while he was taking the test did not help, and at one point he was downgraded for speeding (30mph) in an area the instructor said was 25, and told if he had taken the class, he would have known that. Â In fact, we live in this area, and the speed limit is 30. Generalized comments were made about his car, age, etc. Â Three days after his second attempt, we went to another driving school in Kent and he passed with an 88. Â I would not recommend 911 Driving school of Kent.

From a former student's perspective:911 is a great school to go to/send your kids to obtain a drivers lisence. It is taught by police officers--some of who are really cool (especially Bill!), others not so much. Even if you get stuck with a grumpy teacher, you're still bound to learn all the skills you need to know.
