I took lessons with Paul 5 years ago. I was 30 years old. I had never driven and I was as scared as…read moreany new driver could be. Paul helped me from day 1 where we didn't even use the gas pedal, just coasting, to my driver's license exam. I did pass on my first try! He gave tips and tricks that would help for the exam as well as driving in real life. He was firm/assertive when needed but I also felt safe and comfortable as a terrified driver. He made me step outside of my comfort zone. He loaned me his sunglasses when I couldn't see. Because of Paul's help, I am able to work jobs that involve driving. I can now drive giant diesel trucks and haul trailers for work. Yesterday I drove 420 miles in one day. While I will never be a carefree driver, I attribute my driving success to Paul and First Pass Driving. I am eternally grateful for his help.

Changing my rating to one star just because of how the owner responded. It seems he would rather…read moregrasp for straws rather than just take criticism constructively. Also the fact that he refused to address any of the points I brought up, but instead decided to shift blame onto me in a somewhat generic manner. He gave typical responses for why someone wouldn't do well, but can't bring up specific examples. He didn't even pick pronouns when addressing me. It seriously makes me question if he even knows who he's talking to. Also how many students have had similar experiences. Is the problem truly them? Or is he just making up excuses to cover his rear?

I'm all the way in Brooklyn park and he's lives in Wisconsin so he takes the time to come out to me even when it's far. He's has the best behind the wheel advice than any other driving school and the best cars lol. Really nice cars to where I've become jealous lol. We tested at Arden Hills and I was quite nervous that I'd fail because I've been told by many people that Arden Hills was the hardest location to test at and there was bad instructors. I guess I was lucky to have a sweet examiner and good instructor because they all know him(the owner). I assume it's all about how you drive in order for you to consider Arden Hills "hard." The first time I failed and that was because I was EXTREMELY nervous and I was told I only had two mistakes (Wrong lane when turning and not stopping longer at a stop sign). I've done some research on who has the cheapest BTW in Minneapolis and so far it's been Silverlake. A+ charges $425 for their package while Silverlake is $275 however I did have an extra $200 added to my account since we added an extra hour and another road test. I honestly haven't been with any other drivers that Matt has but if you get Matt, it's your lucky day. I also haven't been to his classroom since I was over 19 but I'm pretty sure his classroom is just as great as his driving lessons

He explained to me what my mistakes were and worked on correcting those mistakes. He was able to explain everything I needed to do for me to pass my exam. He was strict, but he was the best driving teacher. He helped me gain confidence and get comfortable driving on the actual road. I highly recommend Sunrise Driving School (especially if you came from a different state/country, as Minnesota has its own laws and regulations). It's a lifetime investment, and it's worth every penny. If you're struggling with your driving test, consider enrolling in a driving school like Sunrise. With the help of an experienced instructor, you, too, can pass your test and gain the confidence to drive safely on the road. Thank you so much, Mez!

I called to scheduled my appointment and spoke with a male (Tony)- sounded like the owner. He was…read moreso kind, talked to me about the process it was amazing. On the day of my appointment (9:00) no one showed up, it was snowing so I though, maybe they are late. I waited until 9:30 when the office opened and said "I had an appointment and no one is here yet, just wanted to check in". The women on the phone had a very rude tone and said. "Well your payment didn't go through so we weren't going to send someone with our payment. We called you and your husband and left you both voice messages." I let her know that I didn't have any missed calls or voice messages and that my husband did have a missed call from them but no voice message. She said "well I know there were messages because I personally left them, so we weren't going to send anyone over. We gave you until yesterday to call us back, and because your payment didn't go through, we aren't going to schedule anything with you" I responded saying,"I can see why you would think I wasn't interested if you said you called and left messages and didn't hear from me, however, no messages were left so I had no idea you still needed payment or what you cancelled my appointment". [I was trying to be understanding, while still being confused about these so called message]. I continued and asked if we can move forward with scheduling something in the future. She said "Well you would need to pay the missed appointment and pay for a new appointment and because your card didn't go through, I REALLY doubt you would want to do that". I said, "I was willing to pay for both appointments but because your tone was rude and condescending and the customer service your providing me is uncalled for" I added "when I called and scheduled my first appointment, the man I spoke with was wonderful" then she said, "yeah, he called and left the message with your husband" so I responded "BUT you said you personally left both messages". She continued to be rude to me and speaking to me as if I didn't have the funds to pay them so how could I possible be interested in them. Midway, do yourself a favor and get a new "office manager"! Who by the way when asked for her name she said it was "office manager" and when asked to speak to her supervisor she continue to say that she was "the office manager". She is loosing you business.

First, the office address for Teens Inc is a little misleading because they offer classes in…read moreMahtomedi, Maple Grove, and other locations in the Twin Cities metro area. A colleague recommended Teens Inc to me years ago and I am very glad that I remembered and took her advice. She was right when she said: "Not all driver's ed is the same." Three of my sons have learned from Mike Pehl now: two have their licenses, 1 has a permit and the youngest is too young. In the last few years I've learned a lot about the risks of teen driving. At a safety conference, I heard the owner of a driver's ed franchise say that their feedback often includes the word "boring" ... I doubt you'll find any Teens Inc students with that complaint. Mike Pehl is a compelling speaker, he is passionate about his role teaching teenagers to become safe drivers, he has an undeniably unique foundation of knowledge about this topic because of his years as an accident investigator, and his statistical track record with his students is extraordinary. As my friend told me: "Choose wisely" ... I believe there is more information out there about Mike Pehl if you do some research with his name specifically. I also believe absolutely that you will not regret choosing Teens Inc for driver's ed for your child.
