Reviews of Coach Harder Driving School (Driving School)

Loved my experience at Coach Harder. Coach Ken and Alicia were super helpful and I doubt I would’ve gotten a perfect score without them! Thanks guys! :)

Great experience for our special needs son. He passed his DMV driver test first try following his training with Coach Harder's team. Instructors are prompt to scheduled times, provide useful feedback, are courteous and professional. Classroom session was highly useful for our son. Parent session was also highly useful to us. I highly recommend Coach Harder and his team.

Driving has always been a huge fear of mine. So after years of putting it off, I decided to give it another try. Searching the web for driving classes, I randomly came across Coach Harder. IT WAS DEFINITELY THE BEST DECISION I COULD OF MADE! From the start, everyone was friendly, nice, and accommodating with regards to my hectic schedule. After a few lessons, I was ready to take the test, and passed on my first try. More importantly, I feel as if I’ve been equipped with the tools to be a confident and great defensive driver. Thanks Coach Harder & Co!!

I recently moved to St. Louis from New York City and hadn't driven a car in 8+ years after experiencing a traumatic accident. I completely forgot how to drive and was very nervous about the thought of getting back behind the wheel... A family member recommended Coach Harder Driving school to literally get me up to speed and, while I wasn't keen on spending the money at first, I quickly learned it was WELL WORTH the investment. In just a few lessons over the course of a week, I went from not remembering how to work windshield wipers and having minor panic attacks on only slightly busy roads, to acing my behind-the-wheel exam with a perfect 100% score!! Not only were the lessons thoughtful and thorough, but I could tell the instructors (especially Coach Harder) genuinely cared about my situation and wanted to see me pass the test. It had been especially difficult moving to a new city and starting a new job without a license or car and Coach Harder really saved the day. I highly recommend his services to any adolescent OR adult in need of a little extra help to pass the driving exam :) Thank you coach Harder!!

As a 64 year old Brit who recently moved to this country and who was absolutely terrified of driving over here, I could not have picked a better driving school than this. Luckily, I got the recommendation from neighbours who had told me what a wonderful driving school this is. I personally cannot recommend this school highly enough. I found Coach Harder to be an outstanding instructor and there is no way I could have passed my Missouri licence test without his expert tuition. He is kind, patient and very, very knowledgeable. If you want to pass your test - choose this school!!!

I have learned more here from two lessons than I have in my whole eight years as a permit driver. The coaches here gave me the confidence to pass my road test! I can not thank you guys enough! : )

Honestly, disregard any negative reviews — I went from slamming the accelerator instead of the break and turning into on coming traffic to being a confident, defensive driver — I passed my driver’s test today!! Thank you to all the coaches who were so patient and encouraging with me and helped me get here today.

I attended the classroom session that is included in one of the student “turn key” packages and found it to be outstanding. Great tips, plus guest speakers that include two individuals permanently impacted from vehicle accidents, as well as a Police Officer. Their first hand experiences really tug at your heart. It’s an experience that all drivers, both new and lifelong drivers, will benefit from.

Coach Dan taught my 16 year old daughter to drive! I was a nervous wreck trying to teach her and my daughter is now a cool, assured and calm driver. Dan was patient, funny, reassuring and most of all just a great teacher. He had her parallel parking, driving in the city, driving on the highway and doing a really great job. Deb in the office answered all of my questions and was able to make appointments and schedule us in a timely fashion. I highly recommend Coach Harder!!!

It is my first driver's lecense. Thanks to Coach Harder for helping me to learn safe driving and helping me to get a perfect score. Specially Alicia and Alicia and Coach. I asked for a very touch schedule to learn in two days. Deb made it easy. I had fear of driving. Alicia and Alicia are very good teachers and no wonder, within two days they made me a good driver. Just like a pixy dust blown on me and turned to a good driver. Now I drive car and I am happy to be safe and thanks to Coach team for making me a safe driver.

Coach Harder and his driving program were perfect for our new teen driver. The process of signing up for the course, the driving lessons with our son and the classroom experience were all wonderful with preparing our son to be a safe driver. Coach Harder is personable and connected well with our son. Today he passed his test!! Thanks Coach

The best driving school anyone can recommend. I’ve never driven a car before and after taking the classes from Coach Harder, I got my license finally. Very flexible with the schedule, and I was provided some of the best advises for being a good driver.

Lora Robinson

Thank you so much Coach Harder and team everyone has been amazing to work with. My first daughter Lucy now has confidence she needed to be safe and independent driver. Lucy was well-prepared for her driving test (scored a 97)! As a parent you always worry, but with Coach Harder Driving school I can say I have full confidence that she is well-equipped.

Ibrahim Elsharkawi

Absolutely stellar experience. Coach Keith and Deb are wonderful, affable, professional people who go out of their way to help you with your unique circumstances, and their driving instruction/practice is without a flaw. I highly recommend them for first time drivers or seasoned international drivers looking to obtain a US driver's license. Definitely, absolutely worth your time and money.

Thanks to them i passed my driving test thir morning ive gone to toher driving schools before but i failed and in 2 lessons from coach harder i passed this morning!!!

I am not satisfied with the driving school. They just want to make money out of you. Since I was a first time driver they wanted me get enrolled in more and more classes and won't allow me to take the exam even when I feel that I can pass the exam. When I ask them how many classes I should take to be confident about my driving skill they don't have any answer. They say recommended hours behind the wheel is 40 hours. They class duration is just 1-1/2 hours compared to other companies which have 2 hours. They can't even guarantee you that after they train you you would pass, they say it depends on the day of your performance. The rating online with all 5 stars looks made up as they are no customers who give them 4 stars even when they are not anything extraordinary items of service or behavior. I would never recommend this company to any of of my colleagues and even never join them in future. I give them 2 stars only for the driving coach who were decent and polite but still they don't try there best to do there best, they will make you drive same route and instruct the same things again and again which is of no use. Hope I would find some other company that does far better than this driving school. Above is the review I gave 5 months back. Today I passed my driving exam with coachharder. I thank Keith harder for giving me confidence that I would pass the exam and I passed. I wish I had done all my classes with Keith harder, he was very positive and had very good judgement of a student abilities. I thank coach harder for helping me get my driving license which was a vicious circle and never ending saga for me. Hope all coaches were like Keith with the ability to tell students if they would pass and able to tell approximately how many more lessons they need to take to pass and not beating around the bush.
