Practice & Pass Driving School - Simi Valley, California

I highly recommend Practice & Pass Driving School! Therese is awesome! First of all, she went out of her way to schedule a session with my son. There were schedule conflicts, but Therese went above and beyond to find the time to meet us. After the lesson, my son said he loved Therese's teaching approach and praised her knowledge. My son passed his driving test on the first attempt! I plan to call Practice & Pass Driving School again for my younger son when it's his time to learn. Thank you, Therese!!!

This driving school has been amazing. I have only had two lessons but, I have come a long way in those lessons. I love how she tailors the lesson to each kids ability and needs. I also love how instead of having a milage limit for a lesson, if you mess up, you try it again. Thats the proper way to learn. I love how she uses analogies and acronyms to help me understand new ideas or rules. Like smog, is signal, mirrors, over the shoulder, go. And she helpes me bring my confidence up and talks me through my driving. Like in a turn she will talk me through it and make it easier. She also has pedals on her side of the car so, she can take over if she needs too. She tells you what is on the dmv test and lets you practice that. She also is very experienced. She has been doing this for 11 years and taught her 3 kids to drive.

8-30-19: I got my drivers license !! And I cannot thank Theresa enough for teaching me how to be a safe, confident, and skilled driver! I really had a lot of fun and learned valuable skills in the process! This is gonna be stuff I remember for the rest of my life! I also thank her for preparing me for the behind the wheel drive test and going over crucial parts to it!

We really enjoyed working with Therese. She is so busy but makes sure to take time with each student during their appointment. Her techniques made my son feel confident and comfortable behind the wheel. She not only taught him the basic rules but also challenged him to think critically while driving. He passed on his first attempt! Really enjoyed working with this driving school!

I just took my drivers test a few hours ago and I passed on my first try! After, my other driver instructor from a different company convinced me that I wasn’t capable to drive, I moved to Practice and Pass for another instructor who I was recommended by someone I knew. Therese is really patient, super comfortable person to be around, and tell you straight on what you need to work on. She’s not extremely harsh nor sugarcoats your driving, she truly wants your child to do well and guide them to be a good driver. I was super impressed that after the lessons, she will tell you everything that happened and what things you need to work on before the next lesson. Thank you Therese for believing in me and guiding me to get my drivers license, I really appreciate it!

Therese is an amazing teacher! She has a gift of making teens feel comfortable with her from the beginning. She is very thorough, and she ends each lesson with a review with the student and parent of things to work on, with a printed detailed list to take home. In addition, she not only prepares the student for the test, but also prepares them for day to day driving. Our daughter passed on her first test thanks to her. We will continue to refer people to her with confidence. Thanks, Therese, for a fantastic experience!?

We absolutely loved using Practice and Pass! Therese was so wonderful and helpful with my daughter making her feel comfortable and confident in preparing to take her drivers test, learning the proper ways to do things and teaching in a stress free environment. This milestone can be stressful on all involved, but Therese made the transition a great experience! We definitely look forward to keeping in touch and telling all our friends about Practice and Pass!

I recently completed a drivers training course with Therese, and I would refer my friends to her. She is extremely knowledgeable about California driving laws, and she was very honest with me about what I needed to work on while driving. After every lesson, I gained more confidence of my own driving skills. I felt confident and well prepared for my behind the wheel driving test. Because of her excellent teaching, I was able to successfully pass my driving test with a perfect score!

My daughter was a true beginner when starting Theresa. I was terrified to drive with her. After just one lesson her basic skills were so improved I was able to ride with her. Theresa went above and beyond with tips and message swiht questions as we practiced. My daughter passed her test on the first attempt. I am very happy with the results. Looking forward to using her again in 6 months for my son.
