    My child must have had a one off experience since everyone has given 5 stars. Anyway, I don't…read morerecall the adult's name who observed my child's parallel parking and driving portions of the test, but he was an older gentleman. He was condescending, rude and unprofessional with me and my child. He had lots of grey hair, he was around retirement age. With the way he treated us, he should be retired and away from young kids trying to get their license! At this business, they make the first time drivers (many of the minis 15 or 16 years old, mind you) start with parallel parking. The student gets one try. If they aren't lined up directly in a straight line with the cones, you have to pay one more and book another appointment. Kids aren't given a second try or any "suggestions" on what they can improve on before the second attempt. I think that is quite fraudulent, especially with the condescending tone and word choice this old man had with my child and I. Perhaps we got stuck with an older gentleman while everyone else; who gave this place 5 stars; must have a pleasant adult observer. Too bad we didn't get that. Especially knowing these kids are first time drivers, you would think they would receive some patience and not an intimidating and rude experience from a business. Take my word, book your appointment with not this man. Too bad I can't remember his name, avoid a retirement age man for your kid's and your own sake.

So now that he goes I guess I'm really confused how there is 5 stars for this driving academy. 1st on parents night the fella ripped on the parents the whole time. Not knowing us he pretty much told the kids not to listen to us parents when it comes to driving because it's been so long since we've been in drivers Ed..: then he turns and tells the kids respect your parents driving as they are the ones that have kept you in one piece . One dad was turning red in the face . Then the guy mentioned how there are a bunch of cameras in the cars and kids bad attitudes won't be accepted and they will have video... ok what about your driving instructors bad attitudes? Lord! The instructor my son had the first 2 days was new, unprepared, confusing, late and boring. I did ask for a new teacher as the reviews reflected that this school was different than others and a little more fun...a new teacher was assigned....thank you. As for the driving teachers you have a couple dudes there that are complete old jerks and make the kids feel on egg shells. I reported Dennis as my son was like OMG that guys the biggest jerk. One driver teacher boasted about making good money and working OT doing this, but he was an ass and gave a kid a panic attack. I made sure my son didn't have either of these men again. Kids are nervous enough and these guys just yelled. Why do they do this for a living is it just about money? So before you threaten the kids about being good in the car look at these teachers and how they are. I'm still puzzled on how this is a top driving school. Oh well. He's not going back .

    This company is definitely a hit or a miss depending on who you book your appointment with. I have…read moreonly had personal run-ins with Rick and Nora. Nora is rude and unprofessional. She has no patience and arguably doesn't fulfill the role of a driver instructor nicely. Her method of instructing is COMPLETELY different than Rick. She is very cut and dry, no sympathy, and does not take kindly to nervous drivers. Rick however, informs the driver clearly and kindly on what they are expected to do and he even adds a nice little "You got this! It'll be okay!" type of touch. Maybe her passive aggressive way of instructing works with some drivers... Who knows! I just know that Rick is a great instructor and I would recommend him gladly to anyone who asked!

    Bottom line is...BLANZY DRIVING SCHOOL IS NOT LEGIT. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND UNOFFICIAL BUSINESS…read morePLACE! SAVE YOUR $65 DOLLARS!! Blanzy driving school is absolutely awful, please I recommend anyone to save their money. I came to take my road test today following the address they have posted on Google and it took me through a neighborhood to someone's house-which I think is where the owner of the school may love and accept over the phone booking at. However this is not where the actual testing site is!! This place is an absolute scam that they have running in a random parking lot behind businesses. They literally do not have an actual establishment besides the home in which I believe the receptionist or one of the head instructors is using. I know many people have complained and here I am to add to this especially to the instructor I spoke with today. I was so excited to take my road test finally and do it somewhere in my area but...Blanzy is not the way to go at all!! It is an older Arab lady who was extremely rude. I was late to my appointment because they have the wrong address posted and she proceeded to yell at my mother and I to reschedule even though we were simply trying to explain they have the wrong address posted for their Google profile. I didn't even take my test because she was already testing 2 drivers in the same car!!
