    I'm not sure how they got a 1 star from someone, but they've been great with my two kids. I'd recommend them to anyone

    I started my lessons with Anderson's Driving School in the latter part of February, 2019 until my…read morelessons were cut short due to CoVID-19. I am 29, and have never driven in my life. What was supposed to be a milestone and a fun experience, turned out to be a harrowing experience for me. My first class was with an instructor named Rich. Let alone the fact that I had never driven before, on my first day Rich took me out on the main roads of Framingham, when I literally felt that I should be driving on neighborhood streets. Needless to say, I made many mistakes, and instead of being patient with me, as it was my first day, Rich was very mean and condescending. As it is, I was sceptical of driving - I had put it off for so long, his demeanor and aggressive attitude made me lose even more confidence in myself. In subsequent lessons, he would cuss and abuse, and would rudely slam the brakes on his side, even for petty things such as driving close to the yellow line, or not reversing in a straight line, even though the car was nowhere near the curb or any other car. During my time learning with Rich, I had come to know from another source that he had previously slapped a student. Fortunately for me, I had only done 6 classes, when CoVID-19 was enforced upon us. After the resumption of my driving classes, I was pleasantly greeted with the news that Rich had been fired. The new instructor, Nick (Mr. B) has been awesome to work with. He is calm, composed and the effect is that even after a long hiatus, I am driving well and Nick's attitude has been a positive influence on my confidence. I am hopeful that Anderson Driving School can breathe a sigh of relief after firing Rich, and hopefully after all this, everything will look bright and on the up.

    This driving school is a masterclass in how to make a stressful process even worse. The office…read morestaff are supremely unhelpful, condescending, and shockingly lazy. It feels as though they go out of their way to ensure that teenagers and their parents struggle unnecessarily. Communication is virtually nonexistent, and when you do get through, the tone is dismissive and arrogant, as if asking a simple question about scheduling or requirements is an outrageous imposition. Their class sign-up system is confusing and poorly managed, with no guidance offered to help navigate it. Every interaction leaves you with the distinct impression that they take pride in being as unaccommodating as possible. My daughter's peers, who attended other driving schools, had smooth and straightforward experiences. By contrast, every step with this school has been an exercise in frustration. One Star - strictly for the organization, communication, and office staff. The actual driving instructors were wonderful. Parents, save yourself the headache and choose literally any other school. This one is a nightmare wrapped in arrogance.

    Ashland Driving School - Proof that I pass the road test

    I signed up my daughter for the bundle for classes and driving lessons and everything was seamless…read morethroughout the process. She did the virtual classes when she was 15 and 9 months and felt that was very easy to do and got her permit at 16. We also did the driving lessons, which they set up all 10 lessons up front and if I had an issue with a lesson and needed to reschedule, I emailed to which they assigned another day for her. They picked up at school and dropped off at home. We also signed up for the sponsor to go with her for her license road test. Would go through them again for my other child when he is going to start the process of driving. A++++

    I took 10 driving lessons with Maxim at Ashland Driving School. Before that, I had only been behind…read morethe wheel a couple of times, but I didn't really know how to drive and felt very unsure of myself. Maxim was incredibly helpful--he explained everything clearly, showed me where and how I should behave on the road, and answered all of my questions. The platform they use is very convenient--it shows exactly when and at what time your lessons are scheduled. You can choose from different packages and lesson plans, and there are reminders sent 2-3 times before each lesson, which is super helpful. After completing the first 10 lessons, I took my driving test but unfortunately didn't pass because I made the same mistake I had been making during the lessons. I then decided to take another 10 lessons, and after just 8 lessons, I went for my test again--and this time, I passed with flying colors, making no mistakes at all! I now feel much more confident behind the wheel. I'm really grateful to Maxim for helping me learn how to drive and, more importantly, for eliminating my fear of driving. I now have a strong desire to drive and gain more experience on the road! I'm even planning to take a highway lesson to further build my skills and confidence. I highly recommend Ashland Driving School! You won't regret it--you'll love it!
