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 feel so bad because I can't remember my teachers name but she seriously goes above and beyond. They are very busy because they are probably the best school, I was disappointed at first because they were not answering my calls but I left a message and they told me I can easily just sign up for classes online lol. I got 100% on my test first time I definitely recommend!! Update: I set up a driving lesson behind the wheel a week in advance with James and told him I have a car to use and I'm 18+. I called and told him I have to change the address and he said that'd be fine. The lady showed up at the wrong address and was confused on what was happening. I told her I have a car to use but she thought we were going to be using hers or going to take the test. I was only expecting to pay 100 for 2 hours but she said 300. I felt bad because she has a broken leg and probably has medical bills but if James has too many customers to care to then the word needs to get out. If you are under 18 and looking to buy packages then go here.

It had been a number of years since my last certification preparation (PMP) and I had some concerns that I would need more time to absorb the PMI-ACP principals, and importantly, complete the course with a full agile mindset and prepare for the test.   These concerns melted away as the presentation, interactive exercises, and the collaboration with my classmates allowed me to be at ease and learn the agile knowledge needed to pass the PMI-ACP exam. The 3 day duration was perfect for me. Following the guidance regarding test preparation, I passed the PMI-ACP test on April 27, 2019.   I would highly recommend anyone considering PMI-ACP certification, or any certification that Watermark Learning offers as the best team to engage in order to obtain professional training and certification.   Dave Raymond, PMI-ACP, PMP
