Driving Schools near Western Springs

“I would like to appreciate the Excel Driving school for my experience with them. Ray from the North Naperville location took extra time and effort to explain the packages and helped us navigate what was necessary for my daughter and also helped us find a female instructor as per our comfort. This brings me to give Kiran Haq (from the South Naperville location) a special shout out for ensuring that my daughter became a strong and safe driver. We had good days and bad days but Kiran didn't leave our side as she guided her with various techniques to perfect her driving skills and also guided us as parents on how to support our student driver.
Thank you !!!“

“The class was very engaging. Mr Brad was an excellent teacher that I would recommend to others when asked!“

“Auto Metro Driving School is an exceptional program for young or beginning drivers who wish to learn all the necessities required to become a good driver. Both Mr. Damien and Mr. Robert provided me with all the information I could ever ask for while answering any questions I had. Their patient and friendly service allowed me to learn how to drive with ease“

“Andy is a very nice and welcoming to new students learning how to drive. He has helped teach us how to drive safely.“

I can't forget Ms. Sylvia with her smile thanks Sylvia.
Thanks Mr. Abu Yousef and Mr. Haroun.
!Thanks to all the staff“

“This school has been a transcendental experience, one that I had not expected to see on the path towards my future. Through this school, I have learned many lessons from firm but immensely kind instructors and staff who pushed me to be the best that I could be, and went through countless hoops to make something work between the schedules of their instructors and my own. I believe that this experience will be carried with me forever, and I am thankful to have chosen this school.“

“Yard trainers are the best! They take time on showing you how to preform better each day. Class time is taken very seriously which makes you really learn fast for you to move on to the yard. 200 % recommended“

“Alot of trucking schools don't work with everyone's schedule. I went to other schools and their pretty strict with their schedules. But when I came here to midcity trucking school everyone was understandable and nice. Midcity worked with me by matching my trucking class schedule with my work schedule and off days. The School has mornings and night classes; so it helped with me managing time with my family and work schedule. I had numerous trials and errors when I first started but Chris, Angelika, Aaron and Phillip and everyone else worked with me. I had failed numerous times and the guys took their time and worked with me about my schedule even though things were difficult on their end with scheduling. They encouraged me to keep pushing forward when i was on my final attempt and didn't give up on me. Lupe is very excellent at lecturing students about different truck classes. He is very detailed and patience with humor so you won't be bored. Thank you for your patience Lupe. Adam, Arthur, Angel, Igor, Alberto were a huge help to me during the skill and road test. I couldn't have done it without their patience and will to teach me. ( Poor Arthur took the brunt of it, sorry Arthur. Thank you for your patience.) I want to thank Midcity for working with me and taking chances. And if anyone was to look for a trucking school I definitely recommend midcity trucking to anyone.“

“The kindest staff across the board and extremely friendly and informed. They truly care about their students and ensure they leave there safe and confident drivers. They treat my son like family and understand a nervous mom sending her son driving out driving on his own. Its worth the drive for me for such quality in such an important subject....Thank you from the Antonio Flores family“

“Top Driver provided an overall excellent driving education for my son. Their program is well designed and they live up to their motto of teaching driver intelligence. There were a couple of hiccups with the classroom experience and the in-car driving scheduling; however, Mr. Kraft (the director of the Lombard office, I believe) was responsive, respectful, professional and never made me feel out of place for reaching out to him with these issues.

Regarding the classroom experience: My son did not particularly enjoy his classroom instructor in Wheaton as she was somewhat patronizing. The initial parent/student meeting at the first classroom session was supposed to be about 30 minutes but she dragged it out to over an hour and required each student to read a paragraph from her PowerPoint slide out loud in front of the entire group. Mr. Kraft was able to take my concerns back to the Wheaton office afterward and hopefully that situation has improved.

Regarding the in-car driving scheduling: We paid for the Diamond program in order to benefit from the advanced in-vehicle lesson scheduling. With this program, you are supposed to be able to schedule your lessons about two weeks in advance of students in the Silver, Gold and Platinum programs. This is accomplished by calling customer service as early as the first business day of each month. This started out a bit counterproductive for me because the driving instructors often do not provide their availability to the schedulers that early; instead, availability is released closer to the middle of the month when the other program participants are able to schedule.

I realized that not many people must participate in the Diamond program because Mr. Kraft made himself available at the beginning of each month to help coordinate my son's lesson scheduling. Generally this is done with the customer service department; however, given our participation in the Diamond program, Mr. Kraft worked directly with me over email/phone and got us scheduled at times that always worked well for us.

My son was initially terrified to do the driving lessons, but his initial drive with Ms. Russo gave him self-confidence and eased his anxieties. My son was so reassured that he ended up doing every driving lesson with her. Ms. Russo had a calming presence and knew what to say to make each experience pleasant and educational. We were very lucky to have found her and benefited from her teaching skills.

Top Driver is now certified to facilitate the Secretary of State road test. My son had his test with Mr. White. We weren't sure how well he did after the test because Mr. White didn't say much and disappeared to tally up his score. He revealed with an unprecedented level of excitement, however, that my son received the best score of any student he had had do the road test since they started facilitating them about 4 months prior! My son was so proud of himself and now takes his driver intelligence with him each time he drives.

I am not a paid reviewer; I am not an affiliate of Top Driver; I am not benefiting from this review by any means. Mr. Kraft, Ms. Russo, Mr. White and the helpful customer service agents all deserve an A+ shout-out for helping my son happily accomplish his goals on a schedule that worked for us. Thanks to Top Driver in Lombard!“

“Sandra Vidales was an amazing teacher. She was an interesting, inclusive, and she was a great leader. I have learned so much during this class and I am excited to drive in the future with her.“

“True to what they said, I was in and out with my CDL in no time.
Once you're there, try to get familiar with how the school works as soon as possible and it flows really smoothly from there.
PS. listen to your instructors, they know what they're talking about.“
