The experience of CDL training was not what I initially expected. There was more "self study" than "hands on" training, but I later realized that talking with other students about what we were learning from the instructors actually helped in memorizing what we were being taught. The instructors each have their own quirks or mannerisms in how they teach, which does occasionally rub some students the wrong way but they need to remember that the instructors are their to teach them, not baby them. I mean, they taught an introverted guy (who deals with ADD and occasional bouts of anxiety) well enough to pass the driving exam on the first attempt, so that's gotta be saying something!
