Most amazing driving school ever both teachers will let you know the tips and tricks on the road like left turning and right turning and etc. I just passed the behind the wheel test in one go because of this school. read more

I recommend this school over others due to the knowledgeable instructors and great prices. I was able to start on the streets before moving on the freeways due to the lessons I went through each day. This allowed me to get my license in no time. I recommend using this business over others others if you are still having doubts. read more

I learned quickly through the clear instructions. The instructors (e.g. Darren) were very informative, friendly, and chill. The price range is reasonable as well. The driving test is almost the same to what the instructors showed you. By following what they taught you, the driving test should be easy. read more

Learned driving here and passed the test today! All the staffs here are nice. Shout out to Darren and Michael. They are both nice and patient. Correct you right away when you make mistakes and they teach you how to be a safe driver rather than a test-taker read more

how do I start? ok, Michael the instructor is a dumb-ass!! if you ever do use Zoan, don't have him train you, this guy is rude and obnoxious. We did our original 6 hours with Andre, great great patient instructor, A++ to him. When I set up an appointment for the drive test ( $150) supposedly should be 1 hour of drive training then bring the student to the DMV test. He told us 6:30 am, he came 6:45am, rushing to the 8 am appointment to West Covina DMV, so he told my son to take the freeway -which he didn't really practice much, since the test doesn't require freeway driving. During the whole time he uses his hand gesture to tell my son where to go, without even telling him anything, and if he does say something- he would yell at my son ( who the fuck you think you are to yell at my son or anyone???!!) while one older man student in the back laughing at him yelling at my son.) My son felt like shit, this whole set up was a waste of time and money.- didnt get the full hour of driving, ** dont come to this place and ask for Michael, i think he is the owner. worst fucken instructor. read more

Came here with absolutely 0 driving experience. I had different instructors throughout most of my lessons (everyone was amazing ^^), and I passed the driving test first try. Thank you to everyone in Zoan! read more

Thank you all so much!!! Christian passed his driving test and got his license!!!! Thank you for your patience, time, and awesome availability.... Wishing you all a wonderful & blessed New Year! Christian is so happy to have started off the New Year great by getting his license with the help of the instructors, we appreciate you all!!! read more

Thank you to all the instructors who've helped me! great cost for great quality instruction-- patient and kind but not without being strict enough so that the rules are abided by in tip top (which helps when prepping for the driving test, of course). Took 6 lessons and passed first try. Would recommend to anyone in this vicinity! read more

First time I did their driving class, I was already nervous about taking the driving test. I loved driving for the first time because it was like going on Autopia in Disneyland. Luckily the driving instructors are really informative and genuinely help with developing good driving skills. After three two hour lessons, I was ready to take the driving test, which they helped guide me through the entire process. From arriving to the DMV, to (hopefully) passing the test. Luckily, I went to Zoan driving school, because I finally got my license!!! read more

I can't stress enough how important I think it is to know how to drive in Southern California. It was only a matter of time before I took up the task. To be frank, as someone who feels really nervous on the road, learning how to drive is no little task -- which makes Zoan Driving School such an asset! From the looks of it, this is a family-run business and everyone takes equal pride in making sure that their students get as much as they can from their lessons. I've taken lessons from Michael, Darren, and Bruce. Mind you, each brother has a different style of teaching. Michael made sure that I got the fundamentals down when I started with them. He was very straightforward, to-the-book, and assertive -- making sure that I paid close attention on the road. Darren helped me hone on my techniques, and was very insistent that I made enough mental room to be relaxed, alert, and drive smoothly. Though I tend to have the habit of gripping the wheel like I'm trying to make homemade orange juice, I've learned that there many ways to operate and steer a vehicle depending on the situation. Bruce, comparatively, has a pretty dark sense of humor in his lessons. It might be a tad unsettling to get a doom message about crappy driving and notice how other people's terrible habits on the roads, but there's a good amount of truth to it all. He was really attentive, thus making a really holistic emphasis on technique and consideration of one's surroundings. Nonetheless, they all made sure that safety is the utmost priority -- as any good driving school ought to do. Thanks to Zoan, I was finally able to get my license! The lessons were so worth it. I'd recommend this driving school for their attentiveness, professionalism, and understanding the learning experience. read more

Good teaching skills, but one star rating for leaving a student ( me ) at the DMV after the test, to find my own ride or wait a whole hour and half to get dropped back off at home. When the ride back was already said to be included. They weren't right with the time, was told appointment was at 8, when it was really at 8:40. The women I was accompanied with from the driving school barely spoke any English which made the whole experience harder. read more

Amazing driving school! Thank you to Darren and John for being amazing driving instructors! I highly recommend them! They were both so patient and helpful and I learned so much because of them. I passed my driving test thanks to them!! read more

This was my first time getting driving lessons from this place. They offer different packages as to how many hours you can practice driving. These people are very knowledgeable about the rules and regulations in terms of driving as well as the basics. Each appointment is set up with good flexibility and the car swings by almost always on time. Good on communication to remind you of your appt. Each instructor may be different throughout the course, but each cover more than the last as the hours progress. Highly recommend! read more

We had the best instructor named Darren! He was very personable, professional and easy going. I highly recommend him.

sign up and prepaid, ignored calls after first 3 lessons. I had to call in behalf of my son, finally sign up for driving test, show up 30 min late and left my son in DMV for 15 min and have him walk over to staple to be pick up after Michael promise that he will drop my son off. Unprofessional. read more

My wife took two 2 hr lessons from this school. First lesson was like so good which was by an Asian guy named Howard or something and I know he operates in the West Covina region. That guy was amazing and really help my wife in sharpening her driving skills specially with apply breaks and steering control. But the second instructor named Andre who gave lessons on Sunday, I think was so worst. I was in the vehicle on both the times and I can tell this guy was not up to the mark. He was on mute since he started the lessons and didn't even tell her a single driving tip. He was on the mobile most of the time probably he was looking on to the maps and was not able to provide any instructions other than telling her turn left and right. I think I wasted my money with this guy. read more

Great driving school and very affordable! Big thanks to Michael for teaching me the basics on my first lesson. I had two other lessons with John and he is the best! He has so much patience and does a great job at explaining. Took 6hrs of driving lessons and passed the test the first time. read more

I enrolled with Zoan because i already failed twice in my behind the wheel test. I do not want to fail the third tine. Darren was my instructor from Day 1. He taught me what I needed to know, the techniques which every new driver in the USA must remember. Darren is a PRO. Last December 22, I passed my behind the wheel test. Studying at Zoan will not only give you the knowledge that you need but the confidence as well. Having Darren as your instructor is a 5 star. He is very relaxed and patient. A very good teacher. read more

Such an amazing school, and great service. I passed my test from the first try! And Darren is amazing ! The best driving instructor anyone could have ! I recommend this place to everyone, very patient and very calm! Love love love it !!! THANK YOU AGAIN read more

Thank you for helping me out! I was such a terrible driver until I met zoan driving school. Within 4 lessons with Zoan, I finally passed my driving test today! Thank you so much read more

It was great experience for me as I took the 3 driving lessons and got my licence in the very first attempt. These classes are less costly as compared to other classes, yet they are very good instructors. we would strongly recommend zoan classes for everyone. read more

I had my first behind wheel test last week and passed it! Howard was my instructor and he is the best!

This was my first time getting driving lessons ever. At first, I was excited to start driving and to finally get my license. However, due to scheduling problems on the side of Zoan, multiple issues during the driving test and lessons, and the overall attitude of some of their staff I am just relieved to have finished my lessons with them. Scheduling was a complete mess. Every time I wanted to schedule a lesson, they would call me on the night before to tell me when it was. Despite giving them at least a week notice most times, I would be subjected to learning about when my lesson was the NIGHT before. This forced me to either clear my day ahead of time, hope for the best, or reschedule. Once, my parents got so fed up that they called the company, multiple times, and I still got my driving lesson notice a night before. Aside from the late notice, they got my address of where to pick me up from wrong multiple times. I would walk out of my house, call them, go back in, and wait another ten minutes for them to pick me up. These ten or so minutes, by the way, would be lost. The lesson length would rarely be ten minutes longer because they showed up late. Lessons were displeasing. While most instructors were alright and could teach, they still had their quirks. For example, Darren was a little too controlling, but it was always manageable and I don't have too many complaints. I understand that driving the kid who just got his lesson back to his home makes financial sense, but when driving him back takes a quarter of my lesson I'm going to get pissed. Also, I never saw or had a female instructor out of my five lessons if that is relevant . A lesson pretty much followed this structure: 1. Drive the kid home (20-30mins) 2. Drive to their center (15mins) 3. Break (15mins) 4. Finish lesson (1hr) I would essentially lose HALF of my lesson taking the kid home and then going on "break." For the final hour I would actually learn, but I didn't pay over a $100 for an hour long lesson. Michael. I'm devoting an entire paragraph to this guy. He did not want to work there and his attitude reflected this. He was also the scheduler by the way. Michael took the driving test with me. He told me to meet up at 1130, an hour before my lesson, and arrived half an hour late. I had to call him just to find out if he was there, only to find out that he was going to be "10-15 minutes late". He briefly apologized to me on the phone, but did not apologize in person to me or my mom who took me to the DMV. My mom then made him promise to take me home which he did not. After my test, as I was waiting to get my provisional license, he told me to walk to the Staples nearby and wait for someone to pick me up. The fact that he couldn't wait less than 10 minutes for me to get my paperwork shows just how much Zoan "cares" for their customers. Finally, I was picked up by a student in the middle of his lesson. The unprofessional attitude and overall lack of care for their customers is unreal. Needless to say I did not enjoy my experience with Zoan and would not recommend again read more

I had my first behind wheel test yesterday and passed it! Howard was my instructor and he is the best. Highly professional, very meticulous & always punctual. All his tips and techniques were very helpful in passing the test at the very first timeKeep up the good work Howard!!! read more

This is the best driving school. I leaned , amazing coach. they're so kind and I already passed the test.

My friend recommended this school to me and I wasn't sure of it at first, but the staff and service is great. Everyone is really friendly. They are very punctual for your lessons. During my lessons, I would have to pick up people and drop them off which I didn't mind. Having to do that helped me to continue my lesson on different roads and places. It helped to get use to other conditions. My instructor was mainly Darren. He is really chill and helped me a lot during my time at Zoan. No matter how nervous I was to drive, it helped that he talked me through it and gave me a lot of tips. Thanks to this school, I got my license! I only had to take the driving test once. I would definitely recommend this school to people. A big thanks to Darren & Michael!! I hope the school continues to grow! read more

I highly recommend this driving school! My daughter took some refreshing classes and she PASSED! She expressed how they taught her exactly the right things to pass her driving test. They were very professional and the cost was great! I have already recommended this school to my girlfriends. Thank You read more

Zoan Driving School is extremely meticulous in their teaching style, shown by their constant rotations of teachers. Each teacher has a unique aspect of driving to offer, allowing students like me to develop a wide array of skills needed to not only pass the driving test on my first try, but to be a capable driver overall. A bonus is that every single teacher I've driven with are super nice and chill; they are truly fun to talk to and gives great life advice! read more

Zoan is great! They walked me through the exact route of the driving test in El Monte, which helped tremendously because it lessened my focus on learning new streets. Darren was the best :) I had three different driving instructors, but Darren rocked the most! read more

Thank you to the wonderful staff at Zoan Driving School. Everyone was super nice to me especially ANDRE! He was super nice and chill and helped me pass my driving test on the first try! read more

Thank you so much Zoan team. Both me and my husband had a great experience having our driving lessons from Zoan. Michael helps to schedule all the classes very smoothly as per ones convenience. All the instructors were very punctual. I had my first few classes from Andrae. He is very calm instructor and helps you get a feel of vehicle and the road on your own style which is great especially if you are new to driving. My next few classes were with Darren who is a very passionate instructor. He is very particular about smooth driving and teaches tricks to make driving a pleasant experience. He is extremely patient and takes all efforts to get you perfect with the tricks and confident in driving skills. I had my following classes with Bruce who is very particular about driving rules, especially speed. He gives you a flavor of driving in harsh situations which you find on daily driving. I was finally able to get my licence after 18 hours of classes. On the day of driving test Darren made sure that you are very calm and confident. Thank you so much all of you. All the instructors were great and there was something new and important to learn from each person. :) read more

Patient, friendly instructors. Had a total of 5 lessons in a week and passed the test right after. Highly recommend.

I WOULD GIVE THIS SO CALLED DRIVING SCHOOL 0 Stars if it were possible here is why The guy in charge i could not understand his english thats the first of a series of problems because if i cannot understand you how can i communicate with you? These people think that it is ok for you to drive on the freeway when you have never been on the freeway The instructor was irresponsible he got me on the freeway to drive a student home that had already had his class which in that moment there is already something wrong! because why do i have to drive the student back? Why cant the instructor do it? If a person is learning how to drive the last thing you need is someone else criticizing your driving! The worst part was he got me on the freeway with no former freeway experience i was truly terrified but the horror story doesn't stop there the girl that had had the class before me was on board and that was a huge pressure for me because i had never been on the freeway and was very terrified to make an error! These instructor take breaks when its been an hr of driving which is not good because they are stealing your driving time that you paid for! But thats not all the Instructor i had gotten that day whose name is "DARREN" went to the bank on my time to do his banking errands i had to wait 30- 40 minutes for him on my time!!!!! And then after we had to go pick up the next student!!! Thats 30$ of my money they stole because i did not get the full 2 hrs of practice These people make you drive on the freeway when you haven't even learned how to drive on the street!!!! The people in charge are not very diplomatic to the needs of non asian customers because this driving school is primarily for asian people and i am not asian When i spoke to the guy in charge whose name is Michael he told me this and I quote " In order for you to learn how to drive on the street you need to do the freeway first so you become more confident on the street"???!! where is the common sense and logic in that? How are you going to drive on the freeway when you don't know how to drive on the street? He also said that if i didn't want to learn how to drive on the freeway why did i hire them ? He said why don't you get a friend to teach you on the street? You think if my friends or relatives had time to teach me how to drive i would have paid them 510$ dollars to learn how to drive??? Long story short, this is the WORST driving school there is. These people are un organized, they are misleading, irresponsible, and rude to non asian customers like myself. I initially came to this driving school because it thought it was a good deal 510$ for 12 hrs of driving education and the dmv test. But considering the quality of the classes, and the level of irresponsibility that these people have making you drive the freeway when you don't even know how to drive on the street, and them doing errands on your time that your paid for, and their long breaks that you have to pay for too, and having to drop off and pick up other students, then it is not a good deal! I would have rather paid double but have gone to people that would understood my needs, because these people sure didn't i was not a satisfied customer! Also keep in mind that all of the people that have given this school 5 star reviews are asian and i was not i don't wanna play the race card but in pretty sure that had a lot to do with my piss poor driving lessons One last thing Beware of DARREN! He will get you on the freeway out of the blue with no experience so if you happen to get him and you are a person of faith and religion pray you make it out of the freeway alive! read more

This driving school is great. They are really care about your driving skills and want to help you to pass your test. My daughter and I totally like the coaches in here. Trust them and get your license:)) read more

My son took his driving lessons from Zoan Driving School and we were very satisfied. My son was lazy about getting his license. He took his first lesson over a year ago but just wasn't motivated to get his license until now because he's going to college. Zoan was very professional. They called a couple of times to remind him to schedule his lessons. When we finally did call to schedule the lesson, they were able to accommodate him the very next day. They also were able to schedule his last lesson on a moment's notice and also the rental of the car for the test. The Zoan rep literally walked my son through the DMV appointment and we were so relieved that he passed with flying colors! I was very impressed with the professionalism, punctuality, and the responsiveness of Zoan Driving School and my son really liked the instructors. I will be calling them again when my younger sons are ready to learn to drive. read more

I can't believe there aren't more reviews for the school. It's one of the best in the San Gabriel Valley for its value. The worth of a driver instructor is truly subjective. An instructor that clicks with one student may not work so well with another. It is hugely dependent on your personalities. But if you're on a budget like me, this is a great place to start. Their lessons start at $60 for two hours, which is at least $20 cheaper than their nearby competitors. Against my initial belief, the instructor I had spoke perfect English (no accent either) and was very informative. They even give you a little driving lesson at the end of your session! The car I had was a Toyota Prius, not the fanciest car but you're only in it for two hours at a time and it's eco-friendly. I like how they put stickers on the car window so you get a better idea of your car's position relative to the road. I'll definitely arrange a lesson again when I've gotten enough practice. read more
