I had mr. B and he was a great instructor. Taught me a lot and helped me eventually pass my road test.

I decided to try again despite my initial lesson and I'm so glad I did. Vladimir, Viktor and Ervin…read moreare compassionate, attentive and informative. Their lessons were worlds apart from my initial lesson. I took 5 lessons with these guys and I got my license this morning! I booked the test through the school and it went *chef's kiss* so smooth and stress-free. Shout out to the receptionist as well for being super informative about what to expect/bring for the test. This rating would be 5 stars if not for my initial experience. My advice to potential students - and this honestly goes against my own ethos: if you're not vibing with one of the instructors, try another! Though a business really only gets one chance to make a first impression - there are some really good instructors at this school. Don't let one experience stop you from your endgame.

Inconsistent, Unprofessional, and Ultimately a Waste of Time & Money…read more I am writing this review on behalf of my father, a retired military Veteran from India, who just completed 7 lessons with Brookline Driving School. Unfortunately, his experience was overwhelmingly disappointing and I would strongly advise you to look elsewhere. Our primary issue was the complete lack of consistency between instructors. He had at least three different teachers, primarily switching between Ervin and Vitaly. While Ervin was patient and seemed to genuinely enjoy teaching, the same cannot be said for his counterpart. Vitaly was, frankly, obnoxious. He lacked basic respect for his students, was often loud and visibly frustrated, creating an environment where my father felt intimidated and unable to ask questions. If you don't have the patience for this job, why are you in it? To make matters worse, he made uncalled-for and stereotypical "jokes" about Indians being bad drivers, which was completely unprofessional and offensive. The biggest practical problem arose from this inconsistency. Ervin and Vitaly taught completely different techniques for parallel parking. One would say to do it one way, and the next lesson, the other would contradict it. This constant change in instruction confused my father daily and shattered his confidence. The culmination of this failure was on his road test. He failed specifically because of the parallel parking maneuver. The conflicting advice from his own instructors left him unsure of the correct method, leading to a critical error. I hold Brookline Driving School 100% responsible for this. We are cutting our losses and heeding our neighbors' recommendation to try Waltham Driving School instead. Save your time, your money, and your sanity--go somewhere else. This school is unorganized and employs instructors who are not aligned, with at least one who lacks the basic demeanor required to teach.

Best Driving School in the area. Highly recommend!…read more Appreciated the technical driving maneuver videos and the instructors who worked with my kid. Shout out to Arsenio who built up my daughter's confidence. Anna Sab is great-straight shooter. Her husband was at the RMV for road test day. Communication between CS and parents was great. Attend any zoom meetings and watch videos as a parent. Getting instructor hour appointments was sometimes tricky in beginning-but tell your kid not to give up and keep trying to sign up for instructor hours when it's sign up time or get on waiting list for cancellations. Highly recommend paying the extra $ if you can afford it to have CS Driving School sponsor the road test and use their driving instruction cars. Made things much easier and honestly, it was better for me not to be the sponsor in the backseat of the road test car. IMO parents must practice driving with their kid as much as possible-above and beyond the required parent supervision hours. As hard, scary and frustrating as it can be! I spent hours at night practicing parallel parking with my kid the "CS Driving School way" (also 50 ft back up, parking on a hill maneuvers, and 3 point turns). My kid passed the road test because of her commitment to learning to drive, CS Driving School instructors, and the practice driving hours she did with me. Thank you CS Driving School for preparing my kid to drive on the very busy streets of the Watertown area, where adults with drivers licenses don't adhere to basic traffic rules & laws, buses and Amazon trucks drive like no one else is on the road, bicyclists don't adhere to rules of the road, and very few drivers in MA seems to USE THEIR BLINKER ANYMORE!

CS driving school is organized, they answer their phone and are able to help with any questions / problems , they are great at sending emails with all the information that is needed . Anna does a parent class that is mandated by the registry and she makes it entertaining !! My son is an athlete so we had to do some juggling ! CS was always working with us to squeeze in his hours . Highly recommend!

I was extremely nervous and freaked out a lot on the road, but Instructor Ray was always very patient and helped me gain confidence. He had a set plan on how we progress each day and he drilled me on all the important aspects on the exam. Passed on my first try with him. My significant other also passed with this school. Highly recommend. The scheduling has also been very easy, and they send you confirmations/reminders the day before. Very friendly staff.

Despite Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 90, Section 10 clearly stating that foreign license holders can legally drive in the state for up to one year with a proper translation, the school rejected my application citing Appendix C from the RMV -- which only applies to license conversion, not to the legality of driving as a recent arrival. I have been in the U.S. for just 4 months, well within the 6-month window confirmed by the RMV for driving on a foreign license. I explained this to the school, but they were unwilling to acknowledge the legal difference. I found their approach dismissive and poorly informed of state law. It's unfortunate to see a driving school show such limited understanding of the legal framework they operate within. I do not recommend them to international drivers, especially those who meet all legal requirements but are treated as if they don't.
