I have gotten my driver's license a few years ago in CA and have been driving in WA with my CA…read morelicense until it expired. I forgot to change my CA license to WA license, thus I need to retake a driving test in WA. I took a 30min warm-up lesson and passed the driving test today! I have previously done warm-up + test at a different driving school and failed, so I think I can provide some comparisons between the two experiences. Though I might be biased due to the different results, but I will try to be as impartial as possible. Jason, the owner and instructor at Street Law Driving School, was completely honest and up-front with me. During the warm-up, there was a stop sign where I did not come to a full stop and Jason told me in a test that would have disqualified me so that I can pay attention to that in the test. Also Jason helped me to improve in the back-maneuvering and parallel parking, the two sections that I got points of in my previous test. He gave simple but clear instructions on the steps I needed to take to perform those two tasks and asked me to repeat a few times until I have them nailed down all by myself. At the driving school where I took my previous test, the instructor simply went over the steps as if quoting out of an instruction manual without providing any feedbacks on what I did wrong, then took off points during the test. After the test, Jason went over the points that I missed in detail to make sure I actually have them remembered for my own safety. All of the points Jason took off make sense in the hindsight and are clearly explained. Whereas, in my previous test, the examiner just flat-out refused to provide any explanation for the points taken off and told me I'm a hazard to the road. I highly recommend Street Law Driving School to anyone, especially people who are in similar situation as I do. Jason holds the same standard as any examiner is expected to do, but at the same time, he also shows great compassion and wants to ensure the success of his students for their own safety, whereas, I find many other big-name driving schools mostly care about how to sell you more classes. Just for that alone, Jason and Street Law Driving School deserve all my recommendations.

We wish to share our experience in working with the I-5 Driving School to other parents who are not…read moreonly concerned about getting a quality driving education for their first child but also to establish a positive lifelong learning experience with the institution for their future driver education needs. We enrolled our oldest child (16 yo) in the teen class at one of the driver training schools in town. The reason for this choice was because it was located near our home. The 30-hrs class itself was fine and so were the 6-hrs road training plus 1 hr of observation. However, my child was consistently reminded during drive sessions that he could and should go a bit faster above the speed limit, i.e., 28-29 mph in a 25 mph zone but not slower than the limit to avoid folks tailgating him. After having attained nearly 50 additional hours of driving with me, he then took his first road test with the school & applied the " a bit faster" practice to the test which failed him for not observing the posted speed limit despite having attained a mid 80% score on other criteria in the test. Needless to say, we were very disappointed, especially at the end of the test, he was not briefed with details on the scoring, what he did wrong, nor how he could do better. He was given the scoring sheet and told he exceeded legal speed limit, need to do some more practice, and schedule another road test. We then decided to look for "a second opinion" test center for his second try. Our search came upon the I-5 Driving school which immediately interested us with the school's mission and the story of the founders that started I-5 Driving School. We contacted this school yesterday and our call was answered in less than 3-rings! We then was hosted by a gentleman, with first name Nick, who patiently explained to us about the test, the student's needed preparations, and what we should expect when the road test conclude. Due to our son' swim meet schedules, Nick was extremely patient in looking for an appointment/location that worked for us and it was at another location 34-miles away. An appointment was made for the next day and no payment ($35 road test fee) was even necessary! This I-5 Driving School's was so professional and they treated us with trust, fairness, and respect. At the other school, we had to call, left a voice message, then waited for their call back a day later. Once a test was scheduled, we were asked to make payment immediately ($49.95) and there would not be a refund if for some reasons we have to change the appointment in less than 48-hrs. On the test day with I-5 Driving's, we showed up 15-minutes early and we were greeted very warmly by the front desk lady with the name Brandy. She was very polite, gentle, and poised in interacting with us especially she knew how to make my child at ease and in a stress-reduced manner. Brandy then introduced us to the examiner, Sarah, who in a very calming and pleasant manner walked us through the test procedures and even gave us some quick refresh of hand signals and basic rules of the roads to make our son at ease. My son then took the road test and walked in the door after 25 minutes later with a broadly smile and a confident nod that he has earned 83% score and PASSED the road test! I-5 Driving School's service did not just ended there: Both Sarah and Brandy shared notes and spent the next 20 minutes to explain in details what our son did right, wrong, and what could be improved for even safer and COLLISION-FREE driving. We then learned that Brandy is one of the owners of the school. That explained why she was so passionate about helping us in making sure our son get properly trained and become legally qualified to drive. It was a very positive experience for us; we were very delighted and so gratified that we made the right choice in taking the road test here with I-5 Driving School's Mapple Valley branch. We only wished that we had taken our son here for the teen driving class. But at least now we know where to go to, and refer our friends and neighbors to, for the critical driver education & tests, especially for our other 2 kids. We share our experiences herein, with I-5 Driving School, as an input to other parents in their looking for the right institution to rely on to develop their teenage children to become safe drivers. I-5 Driving School is indeed a treasured asset to our Puget Sound community! T. N Woodinville, WA

TTM is a pedagogically-observant Montessori school, which will come as a relief to those parents…read morewho believe in the method and seek something more for their kids (and their expense) than a glorified day care. The classes are appropriately sized and more than adequately staffed with Montessori-trained guides & aides, and feature a full complement of beautiful wood, metal, and fabric Montessori-specific works arranged to allow curious minds instant access to meaningful, self-directed learning. The administrative staff is exceptional, led by a 20+ year veteran of both Pacific Crest Montessori & Northwest Montessori School. While transparently placing the student experience first (as they should), this administration takes great pains to accommodate the needs of parents by being respectful of the scant spare time available to most parents, and by reaching out to parents with lots of pertinent information & updates. The building itself is a high-security cruciform arrangement where toddler, primary, and elementary classes are housed in their own wings. It appears to be a former hospice or nursing home, the practical upshot of which is wide hallways and doors, bright sunny rooms, and lots of 'safety' hardware in common areas. The outside play areas are securely fenced (with locking, key-coded gates) and include play structures, gardening, and opportunities to get messy in real dirt in the time-honored tradition. The location is a quarter mile off WA-509 in Burien at 160th Street, just down the street from Highline Medical Center. We make the drive from Capitol Hill every day in 20 minutes.

If you are looking to take your knowledge and driving tests, this is 100% the place to go! I had taken the driving test at 911 in Bellevue the day before and the guy was extremely rude from the beginning. He would aggressively point out my errors and make me lose focus. I have had 4 years of experience in a Latin American country and 4 more years of experience in Georgia, but he clearly was trying to get in my head. However, the next day I made sure to look up a driving school with good reviews and not just trying to take extra $60 from me. International Driving School did not disappoint. From the Mexican lady in the front desk to the friendly proctor who tested me, everyone there was very supportive and actually wanted me to pass. I 100% recommend this driving school! If you study for the knowledge test and know the basics of driving, you will pass. read more

I never write reviews like this because I know how detrimental it can be to someone's business, but I've never been treated like this and I don't want anybody else to go through what I went through at that place. Save your time. Save your money.

Enjoy my email thread with WMST (in chronological order):…read more First email 5/1/2023: "Hi there, My name is Christopher and I missed this morning's class in Monroe due to several things outside my control that I believe need to be brought to your attention: The address for the classroom is not on the receipt (nor is the time), and the address on the website leads you to a grassy field in Monroe next to Evergreen Speedway with no further information other than to look for a building with a green roof (there are several). There are no signs nor contact numbers to call at 7:30am, including the instructors. I wandered around Evergreen speedway for an hour (I arrived at 7:15am) looking for a "green roof building" and a "guard house", both of which are on the opposite side of the property from the address that is on the website. No "WMST class (this way)" signs, no pictures of the building to meet in front of on the website, literally nothing to help someone who's never been to Evergreen Speedway. By the time I found them (which took asking three different people before I got the correct answer), I was 45 minutes past the class start time (after driving an hour to get there in the first place) and was turned away. I then proceeded to spend another hour and a half in the car driving home against I-405 traffic. The instructor was apologetic (and promised I could reschedule without further cost), and I appreciate that this isn't specifically anyone's fault, but it is *extremely* poor planning on the part of WMST. No signs, no further info on website, no way to contact anyone for help, a vague address and even more vague directions? This class can be done much better. I hope that you will allow me to reschedule my class at no additional cost, as I took two days off work and cancelled a doctor appointment to take this course today and tomorrow. Please, can you help me get registered into another class? Thank you" 2nd email 5/3/2023: "Hello, I contacted a couple days ago about getting a rescheduling for the beginner motorcycle permit class and haven't heard back. I missed the class due to preventable reasons outside my control. Can you please help me get a reschedule confirmation? Thanks" 3rd email 5/7/2023: "Hello, I contacted six days ago about getting a rescheduling for the beginner motorcycle permit class at no additional cost and haven't heard back. I missed the class due to preventable reasons outside my control which I listed in the first email, and make $300 a week, so it was a very expensive investment for me. Can you please help me get a reschedule confirmation? Please give me a call at (425)313-1091 or reply to this email. I am frequently away from the phone, so I've been using email because it is a much more reliable form of contact for me. Thanks" Their reply ten days later: "Good morning Christopher I'm sorry that I have been unable to reach you by phone on both May 1st and today.. Unfortunately, I am unable to reschedule this course with the original tuition paid. I can re-enroll you with a 10% discount in a future course as a courtesy. I'm sorry you had difficulty finding the course. The instructors did try to reach you by phone however you had provided a home telephone number instead of a cell phone. The instructors did wait in front of the green roof building restrooms per the email instructions until 7:40am to try to meet up with you. I have reviewed the email instructions for the location and they seem to be very accurate for this location" Basically called me an idiot and a liar, claimed I gave them the wrong phone number (no messages at home, which was not unoccupied during my absence, either) and kept my money after promising a free reschedule. No where in America does anyone get away with keeping money after not delivering promised goods and services, except WMST apparently. Do not trust them. Do not use them. Go *anywhere* else. You have been WARNED.

I just passed my 3-wheel Vehicle Riding Course (Basic Sidecar/Trike Course) and I couldn't have…read morebeen more excited! It was 2 days of class that ran from 8am - 6pm. The morning half consisted of classroom time and the afternoon half was riding time. Don't be late! We learned quite a bit on safety and the capabilities of these 3-wheeled vehicles. There were quite a few models of Can-am Spyders and Rykers, as well as Trikes and motorcycles with sidecars. We were able to try out any we wanted. Both the written and riding tests are given on the 2nd day. Lee and Ray are wonderful instructors! They both had a great sense of humor and kept us engaged in the classroom. Their teaching style just works and I vastly improved in the 2 days of class. I had so much fun! I highly recommend class with the both of them. I did get my 2-wheel motorcycle endorsement from this location back in 2009. I took the (BRC) Basic Riders Course as well as the Additional Riding Session. They will hold the class no matter what the weather is so be prepared. I recall taking my BRC class during winter and the rain was horizontal with the parking lot filled with water. It definitely made it interesting when it came down to testing. If you're thinking of getting on a 2-wheel or 3-wheel vehicle but have never ridden before or have experience and just want to get your endorsement, this is the place to go.

Highly recommended testing center…read more Today, I had my warm up session followed up by driving test. The whole experience was very smooth and informative too. The instructor gave me exact pointers where I need to work more. In the past, I had a pathetic experience in one of the other driving licensing center. Therefore, I was having very low expectations but the whole session definitely surprised me in a good way.

I did both my knowledge test and driving test with them and had a very good experience…read more I took 5 lessons with Ian, and he is such a great teacher, I have extreme driving phobia and he taught me how to ease into it.

Honestly one of the best customer experiences I've ever had. They were very professional and quick…read more I showed up early for my appointment and then were very kind. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for a driving school.

Honestly, I wouldn't even give them one star. They had horrible customer serviceand got all…read moredefensive when I asked them for a refund. IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO TREAT CUSTOMERS, DON'T GET A CUSTOMER SERVICE JOB AND BE RUDE TO OTHERS. I understand where i was wrong and forgot to bring our id, but the front desk lady continues to pass remarks, and I said i understand, and to relax. and She goes "excuse me". EXCUSE YOU. Reschedule my appointment and we're good to go. But she was so rude, and just gave our permit back, and was like talk to my supervisor. and i'm pretty sure she texted somebody and put me on the phone with someone else, who says to me "what kind of customer service do you expect". Like holy shit. LEARN TO TREAT CUSTOMERS GOOD.
