CDL Course

School was overall a good experience, all the way from my first conversation with Agata to my last. Terry, Jim and Jorge were all great instructors that were very helpful and knowledgeable. If you get stuck on something, just be patient and listen to the instructors.

Detailed patient training

Detailed patient training, hands on experience! This was an amazing experience Darron and Bianca are fantastic and kind. This is a great choice for getting your CDL!

Killed the 90

The overall experience was very good. Steve, Kurt, Paul and Rick I worked with the most. They all explained every move, how and what to look for, how to correct a bad set up or missing your mark and double clutching. I was having trouble with the 90, as another instructor would just tell you which way to turn and correct the bad move you made. Steve explained it out, showed me how to correct it, let me correct myself and I learned a lot more from him. During my exam I was chosen for the 90 back in. I backed in too far, and was way right in the box and had to correct myself, I remembered what Steve taught me and fixed it. The test site examiner even committed, "you remembered what they taught you and got yourself out a bad spot". Pretrip I scored 87 in 17 minutes, had 4 points on my monivers and perfect on the driving. The only negative I would have is the yard needs some TLC and the trucks need a bath.

Persistence

From my first conversation with Joe to my last day w/the instructors - it was all a positive learning experience. Joe arranged financing and paperwork and then the instructors took over. During my first week at 160 Driving Academy, Jamell said they wouldn't give up on us as long as we didn't give up on ourselves. They kept their word. I didn't know anything at all about a truck, much less driving it! But all the instructors (Jamell, Terry, Mike, Jorge, and Jim) used everything they had to teach me - and they did a great job at it! Each instructor found a way to teach what I needed to know - from pretrip to skills to driving. They didn't give up on me, even when I wanted to give up on myself. Thank you all!
