As it was the first and pretty much
only result when searching driving school & English
in google I ended up at the Fahrschule am Zoo! I signed up paying the
fee of 120 Euros, which should have paid for the theory lessons! Not
once were Theory lessons mentioned, a part from me having to pay a
further 120 Euros for a book & CD set which Mr Gruendl indicated
I had to have. The lessons themselves are expensive and the
owner/driving instructor is completely incompetent:
-Running
errands during every lesson up to 15 minutes (whilst I sat in a
cold car in minus degrees)
-Not teaching shouting
instructions
-Losing his temper when mistakes are made such as
stalling the car
-Strange behaviour e.g. acting uninterested &
fed-up in general
After 6 weeks I realised that I would never pass
my test this way and decided to look for a new school. As I was out-with the 6
weeks I got no money back! I feel obliged to let people considering
this school know that it is not worth your money. Since this bad
experience I have joined Fahrschule Kirsch who also offer lessons in
English. It is amazing in comparison! My instructor is patient, calm
and motivating. I learnt more in one lesson that I did after 10 at
Fahrschule am Zoo! read more
