Amazing empathetic and nice teachers. I had a great experience every time I went there and have learned a lot. read more

They phoned it in. Just sat in the car and vegetated while we drove. Did not do any real instruction in the car and certainly did not prepare at all for the Montgomery County driving exam. One example - teaching about stop signs and stopping behind the white line. If you see bad habits during the driving instruction that will fail the driving test call them out! Disappointing. read more

I had this loco for all three BTW classes and it was nice. The instructor was professional and taught me a few things. I'd recommend this place read more

The instructor was on the phone all the time he needed to be helping me with the classes. He was yelling at me like a was a little kid. He kept telling me more than 3 times that if I had been taking the driving test, I would have fail it. I was there for him to help me, but he was an unprofessional and uneducated man. I do not recommend this office. Name: Erick Guzman, very unprofessional instructor. read more

This place honestly has to go out of business. Terrible service with slow service. The instructors are disrespectful and careless.

DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE. There customer service is terrible. My daughters drive times are 6 weeks apart which is ineffective They overbook classes They do not pick up your children at home for the drive times. I had to take off of work and they told me to have my child Uber there. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER read more

My son took classes at greg's and it was terrible. one instructor made him stop for coffee at dunkin donuts, he was dropped off early every by 15 minutes every time, and his main instructor was not nice to him and dismissive to me. It was so bad that we didn't even use all the classes we paid for. Spend a few dollars more and go to I drive smart. He learned more in 2 classes than in the 8 he took from gregs. read more

This place sucks big time. Their scheduling sucks. Worst place to send your kids to learn driving in this school. Once the online class is over, you need to wait for several weeks before they schedule their first in-car lesson. Horrible place to send your kids. My son took his class back in June and we are still waiting to schedule the in-car lesson. We had to cancel our MVA appointment multiple times. Cheaters. read more

Well, my experience is b-a-a-a-d. Once you pay, appointments are cancelled or transferred ( due to instructor's private life schedule) Appointments are canceled literally half an hour before your lesson starts and you are on the way there. Instructors' schedule is key priority and it is near to impossible to schedule class with the same instructor and be on any sort of time line. On top of all that, I purchased the plan described on the website and when call to schedule my appointment operator tried to confuse me and charge me almost 200 $ for what I already purchased ( this happened a couple of times with different operators) I had to refer operator to Greg's school website in order not to be charged ... read more

My niece went to this school and an instructor told her take a picture using her cell phone while at a stop light, what kind of example is this. Another instructor made her speed up until she reached 80 mph. THIS IS TERRIBLE! read more

Horrible place. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE, THIS PLACE NEEDS TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS. Everything they say is true, oh and how these people smell. Its like taking a class or driving lesson with an sweaty cigarette next to you. Where are these bums hired from, back alleys? There are alot of people out of jobs who still shower. These instructors can't wait to light up after a drive or before or after (during) a class. I know students smoke but when you pay for a service i don't want some smelly dude sitting next to me. And wow how these people (everyone) must hate their jobs and life, they make you feel as misserable as they are. Please help this place shut down. If they are as horrible as you hear or read and still register, don't be afraid to ask for a refund and its ok to get out of the car and call a cab or someone to come pick you up!!! THEY SUCK!!! PS: i think the person who gave 5 stars must have been one of the instructors or a relative or high while taking the class. read more

Horrible service and RIP off. Waited an hour despite appointment. Took the test. They happily took my 60 usd and then informed me that they had no certificates. I had to go back in after they said they would mail it. This place seems like a big scam. I imagine there are other schools offering the same test for less. read more

Our second child just completed driver's ed with Greg's and we are very satisfied. The quality of the instructors was good except for the last in car instructor (out of the Silver Spring location) my son had. He was awful in so many ways. However I must say that Greg's was receptive to out complaints & worked hard to make sure we were made whole & satisfied. We would wholeheartedly recommend Gregs. They really helped with the finer points of the kids learning how to drive. read more

I would give this place zero stars if I could. Very poor customer service. I spoke to someone over the phone who couldn't be bothered to answer my questions. I had an instructor named Gary who made me so uncomfortable and nervous during a lesson, I almost pulled over so I could get out and call a cab to pick me up. I never returned to finish up my prepaid lessons. There are lots of driving schools to choose from in Maryland. Give your money to one that will appreciate your business. As you see, Greg's did not value mine. read more

I decided to rewrite my review. The school part is fine, except the teacher tends to go off topic most of the time. Like he'll go from drinking and driving to how much you will be fined if you hit a duck. It's like what? O.o Besides that you get a break but the break is so short its crazy, and if everyone is back in the room he pretty much shortens the break time. Quizzes are given at the end of the class each day (2 weeks Mon-Fri) it's real easy he gives most the answers away. After passing the school part of the driving school you must then complete the 6 hour driving with you instructor. The main goal here is to make sure you take what you learned from the class and apply it on the road. MAN THIS WAS SCARY... When I arrived at the place (they dont pick you up; you have to go to the place) The teacher yelled at me the whole entire 2 hours (2 hours a day) I really wanted to just pull over and just go home. It's crazy! He didn't make me feel comfortable I felt as though every move I made I was going to kill someone. He rarely gave me compliments, and it was just awful. He then would slam on the brakes (he has his own set of brakes on the passenger side) and he yanked the wheel multiple times. He made me feel like I was either stupid, or just a killer. It's like you have to be the best driver and make no mistakes. All in all it wasn't a great experience, I finished my hours and on my last day I ran to my bus stop to go home and I was so happy. Yeah...just go somewhere else... read more

I am so happy I decided to take my driving classes at Greg's Driving School. Mr. Bon is the instructor for the Downtown Silver Spring location. He is hilarious and a great person. As long as you aren't too late and don't talk when he is teaching, he is pretty chill about everything. Mr. Bon is a ex cop so he has many crazy/hilarious/sad stories about car crashes and the things he's seen. The two weeks seemed to go by really fast. If you really want a driver education I say go here. :) read more

This place is horrible my son saved up to pay for driving classes then they tell him he suppose to already know how to drive and they are there just to observe there driving...then what is the point? Stay away find another school that will teach and not take you money. read more

Classes were OK for my daughter, but after telling her she needed to be very comfortable behind the wheel before doing her 6 hours of driving with Greg's, they are now saying she has waited too long and has to pay again. I just checked their web site and didn't see that anywhere there. Go some place else. They say their behind the wheel is for checking your skills, not for teaching you. More flexibility based on different comfort levels would be better customer service read more

Where do I begin: It was the worse driving experience and schooling I have ever encountered in my life. It's a 2 week class where you are supposed to arrive by 6PM, NOT 6:15 as it says online and be out of there by 9:15. Imagine sitting in a class for 3 hours and all the teacher talks about for the first 2 hours are stories that are non-related to driving. Then when you finally do get into the conversation of actual driving, it's pretty much scaring the holy mess out of you and focuses on the "bad" side of driving. When I say bad I mean showing videos about car accidents after car accidents -- stories of horror etc. So when quiz time finally arrives-- which is 10 mins before its time to go home mind you after sitting for 3 hours (minus the short 20 min break) so if you've paid attention the last few minutes you'll pass the quiz for sure! but boy do I feel sorry for the ones that struggle with quizzes, you won't get out of there till after the 9:15 mark. Oh and not to mention if someone comes back from the break late, the whole class has to suffer-- meaning that he will shorten the break for the whole class the next day. Now after the torture of class you go for your 6 hour driving which is completely backed up so don't think you'll get that done the first week like most driving schools offer. To put the icing on the cake they do not pick you up at your residence like many other driving schools have done in the past. You have to meet your driving instructor at the school. Let me just put it this way, it was the worst 6 hour experience of my life. I didn't have a problem with the instructor much inside of the classroom, he seemed ok but once I got behind the wheel with him all he did was yell, be mean, press on the breaks, yank the steering wheel, etc. I just wanted those hours to be over with. Of course you only do 2 hours at a time but the whole experience felt like 6 hours. I just kept glancing at the clock and prayed that the nightmare will soon be over. The poster below is totally correct, they expect you to make no mistakes, you have to be the best damn driver out there or you'll get yelled, and I even caught him rolling his eyes a few times. I'm not going to include his name here but he's the main one that does the classes so beware of the attitude switch during driving lessons. I mean he does show his real side occasionally in class from time to time but it's even worse on the roads. I would suggest going somewhere else where they actually appreciate your business since you are the one paying for the class. read more

Haven't encountered such lack of customer service and courtesy in a long time. The instructor was rude, careless with the paperwork (used 2 locations, paperwork never made it to the other branch despite him saying he would take care of it). Instructor outright lied and when this was pointed out, refused to admit it/apologize for misinformation. Instructor thought that slamming the door forcefully on student's foot was an acceptable way to end the conversation. All in all a terrible experience. If yelp allowed 0 or negative stars, this place would get it. In all fairness, the Gaithersburg (montgomery village) location is better. Avoid Greg's Silver Spring and Den*is the instructor if at all possible. read more

If I could give this a zero score I would. This is the most unorganized company I've ever had to deal with. They make appointments, they cancel appointments, they do not communicate in email as they claim to, the instructor changed an appointment and did not notify us, and now I have to cancel my daughters driving test for another 2 to 3 weeks to accommodate them, absolutely ridiculous, overpriced for such shitty instructors and very very shitty customer service I cannot say enough bad things about them, Please go else where. They do not give a shit about your kid. I promise you that. read more

I had a wonderful driving experience with my instructor, Rakeem. I didn't complete the classes at this location because I transferred here for the 6 hours BTW session only. The staff, especially Sara Gammon, responded quickly when I asked about their classes and prices. It took another employee about 3 minutes to schedule my 6 hours...all within the same week! My last driving school (Silver Spring Driving Academy) couldn't even do that. They tried to give me an appointment for BTW sessions, 5 months from the date I requested...like really. Today was my last session and couldn't be more satisfied. I'm considering scheduling more time with Rakeem before taking my road test. It really is a great place from what I've experienced. read more

Took extra practice classes with Marianne & Rebeca. Both instructors are great and depending on where you take the MVA test, they will allow you to drive the test route. Both are a great asset to this company. Thank you both! read more

Greg's Driving School Any service provider is only as good as their people providing the service - Ms. Mary Moore of Greg's Driving school is Outstanding. If you have ever had the painful experience of calling around to learn and then schedule your kids driving education all of the way through completing and passing his test to receive his license then you will know that the norm is that the service people on average are very rude, don't care, provide 0 customer service and their voice is so negative and talking down to you that you are ready to crawl through the phone or throw the apple at the teacher. NOT MARY MOORE OF GREG'S DRIVING SCHOOL - SHE IS AN OASIS OF GREAT FRIENDLY PATIENT CUSTOMER SERVICE IN A SEA OF SNAKES AND INSECTS.... THERE IS ONLY ONE CHOICE - MARY MOORE - CALL HER AT GREG'S DRIVING SCHOOL read more

The driving school was alright. The instructor would get off topic, but that's typical. However the 6 hours behind the wheel (BTW) training was HELL. Either this place needs to go out business or they need to fire all of their driving instructors ASAP. Never have I received such disrespectful, rude, and uncivil treatment from a business in my life. Prior to starting my BTW sessions, I had 70+ hours of driving, so I was more or less a good driver. The driving instructor was INSANE and would stop at nothing to make you feel very unsafe behind the wheel with him. YES IT WAS SCARY. The instructor was very sketchy and yelled constantly for the two hours. He would yank the wheel forcibly and at times, gestured as if he was going to hit me or slap me upside the head while I was driving. Rarely would he ever contribute any real suggestions for improvement or compliments. I really wanted to stop the car, jump out and run way. And after that misery, he messed up the paperwork which certifies to the MVA that you've completed driving school. Just a awful experience - do not give these people your business. This place needs to be shut down immediately. By the way, the do NOT pick you up, you must come to them for the BTW sessions. read more

A good experience for the in-class lessons (Mr. Bon). The three in-car lessons were with instructors of various quality, but overall it was also a good experience. The only issue I had was there wasn't any guidance on how where to wait for the instructors for in-car lessons. My instructor was late and there was no answer to the building's intercom so I almost left the first appointment. Luckily, I just hung around in front of the building and waited, which is apparently the correct action to take. read more

My experience with this school was so smooth. My classes were instructed by Daniel Bonn, who is a retired police officer. He made every class session fun & engaging as possible. My BTW lessons were very informative & gave me an idea on what things I needed to work on. My behind the wheel instructor, Paola, was very patient with me & made me more confident with driving. Overall I strongly recommend this place to anyone. read more

Very disappointed in their drive time instructors. My daughter was taught her 2 point turn completely wrong to pass her test, she followed and practiced many times all the steps given by her instructor. Before the test she completed this skill using the way she was taught well every time not making a mistake. But when she took her test the set up was a completely different circumstance that she was not prepared for. we watched many videos that night online to see what she did wrong and all of them taught it the same and a different way than Gregs. read more

Booked an appointment to use their car for a road test. I got a female instructor who seemed to focus on other things rather than providing proper driving like distracting you. Well to make story short she told me wrong lines to follow for the parking parts of test. Also wrong directions regarding how many adjustments I can make during parking.I failed, should have ignored her instructions and drove normally. They want money for failed tests! I've had license from another state previously. read more

i would give this place no stars!!!!! man i spent $350.00 in this place and once i get in the car the lady says...if u dont have any experience you shoudnt be behind the wheel. some one needs to teach you first then you come to driving school. and thats a no refund im sooo pissed off . please do not send your kids to this school read more
