The staff were so nice

Andrew Rukakoski

I took 8 hours of lessons with Claudio and passed my test! He was very helpful for me and I would recommend him and the school to everyone, especially nervous drivers like me. Thank you Claudio!

Ibrahim Quraishi

Great instructor. Very interactive and everything is done with one 8 hours class.

Sujee Edward

My son had his road test done here. They were on time and very friendly. I would recommend these guys to anyone looking for road test.

How the hell can yall run a bussiness when the doors are closed yet the sign says open i wasted 2 hours in the parking lot nothing but utter garbage this place is

Maggie Melton

Went to a baby shower there Was nice

Sharon Lynette

We were very pleased with our driving instructor Jim. He provided invaluable instruction that helped our daughter pass her behind-the-wheel test on the first try with only missing one point. I appreciated the opportunity to ride along on all the lessons; it was a great refresher course on some of the minute rules of the road.

Ana Saucedo

I’m so glad I took my road test here. I got an appointment right away and was glad to know that there were many time slots available for me to choose from. I took my test with Ruth and had an amazing experience. She was incredibly nice, patient, and fun! I felt comfortable driving with her and got over my nervousness right away. Definitely worth the money considering the long wait and stress at the DPS

Jessica Ontiberos

My husband took his driver test here for $100 cash only the day after he called. He passed his test with flying colors & the lady who administered his test was so warm & welcoming!

Donna Raymer

Worst experience ever! They allowed an Employee's Girlfriend to pick up my Daughter who didn't even work for All American Driving School. The Lady did nothing but Curse at My Daughter! My Daughter Did Not have Any experience Driving, just her permit. I didn't pay her a penny! She kept texting me saying she wanted her $45 cash! I told her you cursed at My Daughter the whole time she was driving, you had her crying you will not get a penny from me! My Husband and I went to All American Driving School and spoke to the receptionist. She had nothing to say but "Oh Sorry" Really!?? What is wrong with you people!? The calls and texting from the so called instructor got so bad we went to Garland Police Dept to show them the texts. At No Time Ever were we contacted by Management or Owners of All American Driving School. At no time should My Daughter have had to deal with a crazy lady picking her up to be verbally abused! Stay far away from this place.

No show for very first behind the wheel driving lesson, instructor was to pick up student at home (I paid extra for this service), no one arrived. Appointment was confirmed earlier in the day. Went to the facility after leaving voice mail and no one returned my calls. All lights out, door locked. It was 4:11 in the afternoon. Posted closing time was 6:00 p.m. Would not recommend this driving school.

T Young

Great experience, staff if very welcoming. Would highly recommend!!

Shirish Singh

I had taken driving lessons from American Driving School. The service is excellent and the instructors are great. I strongly recommend this place.

Shaimira Vioude

Went here for my drug and alcohol course and driving lessons. They’re very friendly and very helpful with flexible times and there prices are reasonable. They helped me out a great deal with getting my license and I couldn’t have done it without them. Would definitely recommend going here!

Ronald is a fantastic instructor to get my license.

Chanda Easterling

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY THEY ARE NOT ORGANIZED MY SON LICENSE TEST WAS RESCHEDULED 2 TIMES DUE TO THE LACK OF THEM BRINGING HIM OUT ON THE ROAD FOR HIS 8 HR DRIVING . DRIVING SCHOOL CAR BROKE DOWN DO THEY CANCELLED HIM A COUPLE TIMES AND NEVER CALLED HIM BACK TO RESCHEDULE AND THEN TRY TO BLAME THE ISSUE ON MY SON. THE OWNER STATED IT WAS MY SON FAULT HE SHOULD CALLED THEM BACK TO RESCHEDULED.. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THEM TO ANY ONE..

You get what you pay for... My kid took the 30+ hour course. I went to the parent class that is required. That's when i realized this place is a waste of money. 1. Teacher put a tape in for us to watch and said this video is out dated.. Why show us out dated videos, this company makes enough money, update your videos... 2. Company will charge you if you miss your driving class, they said they will give you 24 hour notice for you class. My kid received a text message from them with only a 12 hour notice. 3. The one thing that really push my buttons was when the teacher said "I am not here to teach your child how to drive. You have to teach them, I just fine tune them to pass the test"... what a joke of an operation, ripping people off. Parents Beware, spend the $50-200 more for a real school

THE MOST AWEFUL EXPERIENCE. EXTREMELY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL

Paige _vill

If I could give this school 0 stars, trust me, I would. I had an awful experience here. I called the school to inquire about their driving classes, but when I informed the woman at the front desk that I had a 21 and under permit, she firmly told me that I needed to renew my permit (as I am now 24) an was required to take the adult class in order to do so. So I enrolled, only to find out once I arrived at the DPS that I did not need to take the class at all. When I returned to the school, the woman feigned ignorance and would not admit that she had cheated me and refused to return my $100. In fact, she raised her voice at me when she was trying to defend her reprehensible actions. Additionally, on the day of the class, I had also shown my instructor my permit, and he still never mentioned that I did not need to take the class. So to anyone planning to take classes here, don't. They will rob you of your money. The service is awful. The employees are awful. You're better off taking classes somewhere else. In contrast, when I called a different driving school and they immediately informed me that if I had a permit, I would not need to take the class.

Best driving school around - friendly & supportive instructors. Claudio is the best!!!

Rajasheka Reddy

My Experience with this Driving school is very good, the instructions given by instructor is awesome ... just do what he says we will learn perfectly got my license ........!

majesticmarcy o3o

I had a great experience here! I loved that you can get get a drivers test the same day after getting your dps permit. I had a wonderful time with the test proctor Ruth. Because of this school i was able to get my drivers license in one day!

Rafael Roldos

Very nice people

Franklin Delano

The receptionist is very rude, and inattentive. Have had to practically beg for scheduled times and information regarding getting our child's drivers license. Every time we go in there is always something else she has neglected to tell us, requiring more driving around trying to gather paperwork to get this done. The actual instruction and classes were good but the receptionist needs to be replaced with someone more competent. Just for that reason it has made this a very bad experience that has stressed us to no end. We recommend you find some other place until this one gets their act together.

Andrea Thomas

Very friendly staff, I recommend everyone to come here!!

Provakar Datta

I never drove before! So, I took 2 hours behind the wheel training with Claudio twice before my road test and passed easily. He is very friendly and knowledgeable.

Jennifer Quintanilla

NOT RECOMMENDED! Poor customer service and management skills. They mess up drive time schedules and then charge you no show fees for drive times you did not schedule and charge no show fees for cancellations that were done way before the 24 hour window. By pure luck you will get someone to answer phone and they obviously do not check messages. They make mistakes and expect you to pay for them.

Damecione Thornton

I did the same day testing in my own car for $100. I called around 9:00 am and they were able to get me in at 11:30. Randy and the older lady were a pleasure to test with. She was very clear with all instructions. I’d recommend this place to all new drivers. Don’t listen to the bad reviews. Most people only come to share negative experiences!

Rajendra Rudra

It was very helpful and amazing journey with this school especially with Claudio. He just made me confident in all aspects and the 8 hrs. class was fun!! I recommend this if you would like to clear the DMV knowledge and road test in first attempt.. I did so!!

Danielle Broussard

I feel a company teaching students to drive should obey all traffic laws. Yet everyday for 3 weeks around 245 at rowlett high school the man driving the shuttle disregards the school zone. He has flown threw every single day and fails to stop for students in the crosswalks at the schhol. Not a very good example you are setting.

Derrick Spalding

Claudio and the American Drive School of Manchester are a top notch learning to drive, family oriented school. For over 30 years, ADSM has helped teach nervous new drivers how to drive, and drive well. Safety was clearly key in all lessons as well as patience and years upon years of know-how. If you want your son or daughter to have the best bang for your buck (aka safe and comfortable behind the wheel) sign them up for classes. Everyone I know has passed their driving test on the first try. The car is supplied for the test, it is right on the bus route and near some amazing restaurants. Easy to get to, affordable (payments plans as well), and you'll feel like you've been driving for years after just a few classes. I only recommend this Driving School. Don't bother going to a commercial driving school where you are just a number and a slot; American Driving School of Manchester will treat you like family. Guaranteed.

Caprice Cota

Their instructors are amazing! I learned a lot with instructor Alex Caceres and the classes allowed me to pass my first test with 0 mistakes.

Ashlee Field McCollom

All American has employees that will go above and beyond to help new drivers (teens & adults) succeed and become licensed drivers.

Hector Reyes

Great experience in general.i went for a road test due to the long wait with DMV. They were very punctual and friendly. I have been to other places and they were rude. This was painless and pleasant.

shakir hussain

There are many reasons Claudio is the best driving instructor around the area. I was a very nervous driver and never drove in my life. Claudio understood that and worked with me. He was extremely patient and never lost his cool even if i made blunders. This is very important as it helped me get confident. I passed my road test after several behind the wheels lessons (each dollar spent was completely worth it) His techniques will not only help you pass the exam but will also make you better and safer driver on road.

Shaniel Fuller

American driving school taught me the last minute the day before my driving test at Dmv and was very good at doing it .. Im so happy i pass my driving road test . ...

Reina Marlen

DO NOT RECOMMEND they have poor customer service and they have a lot of people and don’t meet all

T F

Never even dare to set foot in this place. They rip off ppl who wants to pass the exams. They make them come back the next day and pay $50 then will not focus on the part of driving YOU NEED TO LEARN AND FOCUS ON! then they will make you pay $50 each time you fail so you can practice one more time... and so forth! - Been working my a$$ for that money and it's not that I rip off other ppl like your shady business do! Total rip off amount was about $200 and I just did not get anything back! they even want me to pay more!!! will be reporting this to the right authority!

AJ _

Absolutely horrible. Paid last wednesday, was told that the instructor would call me to schedule an appointment by the end of the day. In the end, we went back there today and got a refund from a receptionist who was so freaking rude.

Jerusha Beavers

Quick fast and easy. No problem getting a adult drivers permit certificate here . All you need is a Id and 100$. Set a appt. first and I went here around dec there was completely no other students there but me. So I got done pretty fast.

Jose Lara

Terrible customer service!!! By far I have been trying to get my permit for weeks and they never answer and never give me the information I need

gopi nagapuri

My experience with Renaldo and Claudio was awesome. They taught me driving so very well. I took 2 hours behind the wheel training with them it helped me a lot. Thank you guys.

Saranya Sahaa

I attended 8 hrs course it was good. However the administrator who was in the office was biased and his behavior was racial towards Asians. This attitude of treating people based on their race is not acceptable. Every human being deserves equal treatment and respect irrespective of the race they belong.

Samuel Morales

Great instructor!

Maia Sen

The most unreliable driving school ever!! They can't schedule driving times properly, they are never open, even when they say open in FRONT OF THEIR DOOR, and they have the rudest and most ignorant people sitting at the front desk. How the hell are they still a licensed driving school? I honestly don't know. I've experienced their preposterous service NUMEROUS times...this "driving school" should definitely be shut down, not just for my sake, but for everyone's.

Javaughn Balies

Very good driving school I did my 30 hours at this school, then they let me do my driving test at the school and I passed on the first try.

Anamaria Lage

Claudio and the team at American Driving School of Manchester are the best in town. If you or your child need some driving training or anything related to driving don't hesitate to call American Driving School, they are polite, professional, and affordable. God Bless

Faisal Beg

Claudio is nice and friendly. He gives confidence in driving even when I was nervous.

Bernard Adalyy

I had a very great experience at this school!

Ashish Rai

Excellent learning center for the new drivers by very skillful persons, some sessions are enough to get the required driving skills.

Monika Bach

Its a cold run down building and a small class. The owners are nice and I guess that's the important thing

Ayush Sengupta

I took a 2 hrs behind-the-wheel course from Claudio. He's an expert instructor and very nice and friendly. The lesson helped me pass my driving test in one go even though I started driving very recently in this country!

Twum Ampofo

Very educative and helpful

Abhijith Ramalingaiah

I found this for my 8hrs safety n awareness class, as closer for my house. Trainer was well experienced, I must say he had very worthy nice points although u may find many online videos. And coming to behind the wheels, trust me I just took very few classes as I did drove in my past. If u just work on his directions n practice over weekend, you all set for DMV road test. I personally felt he his a great instructor by his passion towards his job n from his yrs of experience. Very cool gentleman by person and his guidance much worth appreciated than renting, w/o cross eye for correction & taking attempts in DMV n waiting long, especially if you don't have. It was nice but short time Mr.Claudio. saying bye for now, with my CT DL(not a easy 1) at first attempt.

AGBOTSE GBONFOUN Massan Kafui

It was a great experience with American Driving school of Manchester. My instructor Rinaldo was nice, friendly and helpful to me. I was able to get my licence after the first time! I highly recommend this driving school!
