Honestly I would love to recommend working here, but Pete is constantly trying to reschedule the exam portion. so even though I had the ability in my schedule and more than qualified for this position. It will never happen. Please take this under advisement when looking for employment. I don't recommend applying at all *Based off owners response- I was not the unprofessional person in this party, I did my due diligence, it was on the company, and the company didn't follow through, but this for sure confirmed that I will NEVER come work for this company. So thanks for your response Pete.

This is our second time around with A+ Driving School and our experience is great again. Our family appreciated the flexibility of classes, times, dates and sessions. Anytime I emailed/called my questions were answered right away. It is definitely worth paying a little extra since the services offered far surpass other offerings available.

Great classroom material, and SUCH convenient times for the students. We appreciated the good communication, flexibility of classes that work best for our family based on the day of the week, and overall efficiency. Will definitely be utilizing again with the next driver-to-be in our home.
