Seattle Driving Academy

The place is so nice and clean. I was half an hour early and the staffs are so nice they ask me do I need some water. I didn t take any class here. I just came to took the driving test. There is not lots of traffic around here and not many stop sign. The best place to take a test. Thanks to John.

I had a very good experience taking behind the wheel lessons at Seattle Driving Academy from Lallu. He is an experienced instructor and very good at logically explaining the dos and donts of driving. I would definitely recommend them. I took my test as well with him, that experience was also pretty good.

I did both my written and drivers test here and it was great, definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to get both done. Lady at the desk was very nice helping me with the paperwork and Eddy was an amazing instructor. He was also very helpful and explained a lot within the time provided!

Took the driving skill test with Lallu today. He was very friendly and created a comfortable environment that allowed me to drive stress free and with confidence. The entire process from taking the written test to the driving test was smooth and straightforward. 100% recommend for any student wanting to learn how to drive. Driving test consisted of driving around the neighborhood and parking.

I had taken 9-hour pickup-and-drop package. All lessons and the exam was scheduled with Eddy. Finally, I had failed in the test. This was my experience: Pros: 1. The instructor would come 5 to 10 minutes early. This allowed 95+ minutes of driving time, when the school promises only 80-minute (for 1-and-half-hour lesson). 2. Instructor allowed me to drive in Seattle Downtown, which gave idea of driving in traffic. 3. Instructor focused on teaching maintaining speed. Cons: 1. There was too much focus...
Read full review on speeding-up. Instructor would get angry if I slowed down. 2 . I felt instructor was not calm, and would get angry easily if I do something wrong with my own judgement, instead of teaching the right thing calmly. This creates unnecessary stress during lessons, and more stress during exam, as in exam we have to solely rely on our own judgement. 3. I felt some lessons were just contradictory of what were supposed to do in tests. Once, instructor lost temper and started shouting at me because I couldnt prepare to back-up the car within 5 seconds, and there was a car waiting behind. However in test I lost marks because I didnt wait for car coming from different lane. Similarly during backing-up lesson, instructor asked me to focus on mirrors only and not look through windows. But during the tests, I couldnt notice a pedestrian on sidewalk as I didnt look through windows.

I PASSED MY TEST TODAY! Ben E was my instructor and I had 7 lessons with him. He helped me all the way. He is so patient, calm and he gives you perfect techniques. I am so grateful. Thank you Ben E and Seattle Driving Academy. You guys are the best!

I have bookend warmup + test package with John, and he was amazing person and throughout the session he insure that I am calm, not feeling nerves, driving like I drive without him :D , provide pointed feedbacks. And finally I was able to pass my test. Thanks John for making test enjoyable experience.

Aishah at the front desk was really helpful. Great customer service. The instructor Lallu was very friendly professional and did not make me feel pressured when I was taking the driving test. I would recommend my family and friends to come here!

I joined my driving classes with pick up and drop off with Miss Carr. She is a perfect teacher with really good drivinng tips. Was very patient with me and covered all aspects of driving in my classses. Highly recommended!!!

I cannot express how graceful and patient my instructor Lallu A. was with me! Im so grateful that I got the chance to have him as my tester. He was honest and helped me calm down before and during my test. Thank you so much Lallu! It really means a lot to me!
