Reviews of Ann's Driving School (Driving School)

John Smith

SUMMARY - very rude instructor - rip-off - I went to another school that was a lot cheaper, a lot better. - google "Ann's Driving School review" and you'll find many of similar, negative reviews [INITIAL POST: Jun 29, 2008] I was totally disappointed at Ann's Driving School. My instructor was rude! When I made mistakes, he said "Hey, good morning, do you need a coffee?" (in response to "what do you mean for 'the middle'?") "I don't know how to say that in Japanese!" "(sigh)" "That's terrible." Fortunately, I could find another driving school(*) that was a lot better. Besides their fee was less than half of that of Ann's Driving School. Happily, I could get a driver's license cheap. Even if you give up taking Ann's lessons, you don't have to give up driving. Find other schools. * I don't write their name here because this is not their advertisement. = My Comment on Patricia's Review [Dec 8, 2011] = See my review carefully; I said "When I made mistakes, *he* said..." and so the instructor I mentioned is male. Patricia, I have two questions for you: [ 1 ] Have you tried other driving school(s)? (If not, your comment doesn't make any sense; the term "good" always means "better than something else".) [ 2 ] Do you think it's appropriate and reasonable enough that one of their instructors yells, sighs, says sarcasm during lessons? If you can't believe this shocking story, search with "Ann's Driving School review" and you will see many of similar negative reviews by many of their former students (victims).

I learned so much, and had such a fun time! Kahn and his steps to parallel parking made it less stressful and easy to remember how to park perfectly every time. Really calm and funny environment, so happy I did behind the wheel through this program.

I had a great learning experience with Connie Wong, one of Ann’s instructors. She not only helped me with a set of directives for safety, but she also boosted my confidence on the road helping me with my anxiety and fears about driving.

Keith Garlepp

Super cool guy! Very good guy.

I was instructed by Connie Wong, who was an amazing teacher that helped me easily pass my driving exam. She was always on time, in a good mood, and was fun to talk to. Knew the rules of the road very well, prepared me for the specific test I would be taking. Absolutely fantastic instructor.

Ann's driving school is an excellent resource for senior drivers who would like a refresher course before taking their DMV driving test. Connie Wong was prompt at picking my dad up, spent two hours lesson reviewing rules of road and driving the DMV course (2x) with him. Connie took the time to call me after the lesson to give me feedback. The office is quick to respond to emails. Highly recommend

Leo was the driver for my son. He was so prompt in always getting back to us, very organized and was an amazing driving teacher. Our family highly recommends Ann’s Driving school and also Leo as a driver. 5 stars!

The moment I first spoke to Eugenia, I knew that I was going to have a positive experience with Ann driving school. I never met her in person but her voice on the phone was relaxed, professional and sexily authoritative. She set up Ricky to work with me to pass a senior driver road test with DMV and let me use their car for the actual road test. This young asian gentleman was the personification of calm and vigilant guidance. His sense of humor, attention to detail and encouragement helped me to relax under the pressure of the upcoming test which was conducted by a managing dmv officer. Thanks to his patient, confidence-building, preparation I passed with a "good job" remark from the officer on my Road test score sheet! I highly recommend Ann's driving school to anyone from 16 to 75! Well done Ricky and thanks again!

I was instructed by Connie Wong. Connie did a great job at conveying the seriousness and responsibility of operating a vehicle. Connie's calm and patience , combined with her advanced knowledge of driver behavior and car handling made it very positive experience for me. Connie not only teaches the basic of driving, she teaches awareness and how the car reacts to one's actions under a variety of circumstance. I highly recommend Connie!

Lex Rabinowitch

It was a great experience and I learned a lot, especially how to parallel park! Highly recommend!

Fun, awesome, cool, experienced, energetic, funny teacher. Learned so much about driving. Wouldn't have done it with anyone else.

Alise Mcpeek

Excellent Thank You.

Anneke Lau

Connie was my instructor and she was beyond helpful! She was tough, but extremely nice, understanding, and patient. She is also the only person to have ever gotten me to drive on the freeway. After 3 lessons, I passed my driving test and I know I couldn't have done it without her!

It was a fun class, and Khan was real nice about scheduling classes around my schedule. Totally recommend this school.

Huskey Vogt

This is my second time taking this course.

Ally Brown

Thank you Annes driving school! I finally got my license, I highly recommend Kahn he is calm and helpful. Not only do I feel confident on the road, but I learned a bunch of tips including regular, reverse, and parallel parking!

Colin Hines

Great experience. Very fun. Great teaching experince and amazing instructor. 100% would go through again

Kavita Parekh

Connie was an extremely patient, flexible, thorough, and knowledgable instructor. I was very nervous to learn how to drive, but she helped me to feel incredibly comfortable behind the wheel. One of the most helpful things about having Connie as my instructor was that she was diligent about teaching me the rules of the road so I could be confident (but not overconfident!!) about my decisions as a driver. I passed my driving test on my first try with almost zero errors thanks to her. I would highly recommend going to Connie to learn how to drive!!

Christine Lee

Mr. Khan is a very nice, funny, patient teacher. He also teaches you how to drive and park in a very easy simple way. Mr. Khan 2.0 is also a great driving instructor.

I called them after a terrible experience with another driving school and with less than a week left to my behind-the-wheel test. I had never driven in the US before and I am a novice driver; They helped me practice all around San Francisco from the get go and specifically for the drive test itself, we also trained an hour or so before the scheduled test - I PASSED (in my 1st attempt - Woohoo!), it's a miracle! Thank you so much to Leo for being empathetic and teaching me so patiently about all the road rules & regulations.
