I had an amazing experience with Mr.Adventures as my driving instructor. He is such a fun,…read morepatient, and genuinely GREAT instructor. Before I started lessons with him, I had absolutely zero confidence and was honestly scared to even get behind the wheel. After just one 2 hour class, my confidence improved so much. He made everything feel simple and manageable, and he never made me feel nervous or pressured. By the second class, I was already driving on the street and even near the beach something I never thought I'd be able to do so quickly. He explained everything clearly, stay calm, and really knows how to build your confidence step by step. I'm so grateful for his teaching style and support. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who's nervous about driving or just starting out. Truly one of the best instructors out there. Thank you so much Mr. Adventure.

I passed my drivers test first try. Mr. Adventure was an amazing teacher with various skilled…read morethorough instructions that resonated with me very well and helped out so much during my behind the wheel exam. They were simple but went so far as to guiding me through driving. If I could give him more stars I would and I say this with a ton of confidence. Such a great guy. Great instructor. Be sure to book your lessons with him. I only got to do one lesson with him unfortunately but I got so much out of it. Imagine what anyone could to with all three lessons with Mr. Adventure.

We enrolled our daughter up for all of the required number of hours/classes through Varsity Driving…read moreAcademy (VDA). The instructors were very patient with her as she learned the car and rules of the road. It's very important to find a trustworthy driving academy. From purchasing the sessions, to scheduling the sessions, and to scheduling the CA DMV test, it was such an easy process. Our daughter really felt at ease and comfortable with instructors Catherine Steveley and Dan Younger. They really understand how to instruct/connect with a new youth driver. Thank you! Today, our daughter took her CA DMV driver's test and SHE PASSED THE TEST!!! Thank you to everyone at VDA!!! We will go through VDA when our son is eligible.

When my son first got his permit I looked on Yelp to find a great behind the wheel program for him…read more I called Varsity and they were amazingly helpful on the phone. When Bob came to our house for my son's first lesson he was kind and knowledgeable, letting us know what to expect. My son had a great experience and at the end Bob spoke with us and gave us things to work on with him. All three lessons were amazing, he even gave us tips and tricks for the test and suggested which DMV to go to. Our son passed with flying colors and has a great driving record (he has been driving for 3 years). I am writing this a few years later because we moved away from Irvine and had to find another company for our daughter. Her experience was not as good and we did not feel that she was ready to be driving on her own even after that company signed off on it. I immediately called Varsity and they found her a time to work with Bob and we drove down to Irvine for it. In just two hours he taught her so much, he went through everything and corrected her previous instruction. She is a much more confident and safer driver because of him. She passed her test two days after the lesson. Thank you Varsity and Bob!

Over the…read morepast few years, I'd spot TRTS vehicles out in the wild, and always thought it was cool that they were utilizing Mustangs, Model 3s, and Bronco Sport vehicles rather than more pedestrian entry-level sedans. As the father to a car-crazy teenager, when it came time for my son to begin his behind-the-wheel training, TRTS was the only solution we considered. Each two-hour lesson with Steven Unland and Jim Sewell was thorough and my son enjoyed conversing with Steven and Jim as he drove. At the end of each lesson, I was given a session review sheet containing the things they covered during the driving lesson and feedback for any areas that my son needed to work on before the next lesson. Thanks to the training that TRTS provided, my son confidently and effortlessly passed his CA DMV behind-the-wheel driving test with only a one point deduction.

Starting with a reluctant driver can't be an easy task for a driving instructor, but Marc was so patient. Yesterday he had his final lesson and his test is Monday.

My son is still reluctant but I'm grateful to Marc for helping along this important milestone of life. Cheers to safe drivers!

If you want to get MENTALLY prepared for passing the behind-the-wheel test, please, make Lance your…read morefirst choice! Scheduling and payments: everything's online. I suggest reaching out via text message before paying to make sure he has the availability you're looking for. Lance is very organized and it has an excellent scheduling system. You will get reminders through text and he will always be on time for lessons or your DMV appointment. He respects you, your money, and your time. He is flexible as long as you communicate with time. 1 hour behind the wheel test prep: He will give you the DMV examiner experience, meaning he will be VERY strict and COLD BLOODED for real, (I even told him that lol) If you have ever been at the DMV you can tell how sad and mean this people are. Well, Lance will show you how to control your nerves and focus on the importance of driving safely and listening actively. So don't take it personally, for the ones that said he was mean, I would say he's very straightforward, he wants you to follow the rules and you have to go out of your comfort zone and trust his teaching method. He gave me feedback after the lesson, it was mostly learning how to control my nervousness and don't anticipate the examiner's instructions. Other than that he said my driving was fine. :) DMV test day package: He picked me up on time and let me drive to the DMV, again, her reminded me about actively listening to the instructions and the importance of understanding the psychology of the test to pass. Lance being this strict helped me to be more calm because when the examiner approached us, I was prepared to not let the examiner's cold-blooded unemotional detached attitude affect me. Result: I passed the test with few errors and then we drove back to the pickup spot. Today recommended! Thanks, Lance, I wish you the best!

Like the other 1 star reviews, PLEASE READ THEM!!…read more We had a very disappointing experience with The Way driving school. Our instructor, Jordan, did not provide much actual detail instructions and instead had my teen drive him to a food location so he could get a drink in one of our PAID lessons. A friend of ours reported a similar experience where their lesson included a fast food stop. For a paid driving lesson, this felt unprofessional and a poor use of time. Communication and scheduling were also very frustrating. Responses were slow and most times booking lessons were unorganized. Example: The Instructor will either show up 1 hour early or even late and not finishing our actual hours. Another main concern was safety. Only one of the vehicles we saw had instructor-side brakes and pedals. The other cars (including their Tesla and other vehicles) did not appear to have these added safety features. We specifically requested a car with instructor controls for our teen, but that request was not honored. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations, especially considering the importance of proper instruction and SAFETY for new drivers. ***In response to the owner's comment below: I am not seeking a refund or any form of compensation, nor did I mention that in my original review. My intention is simply to share my experience and perspective to help inform others who may be considering this driving school. This is, after all, a platform for HONEST FEEDBACK. My review reflects what we experienced and is not a false accusation. If you take the time to read other negative reviews, you will notice similar concerns raised by other clients. ***
