ADVAN Driving School - Alhambra, California

5 stars for ADVAN Driving School! The instructor Derek is very knowledgeable and patient. He knows how to practice for the behind the wheel test and teaches you how to drive safely. I wasn't very confident before I started with ADVAN Driving School, and the driving lessons with Derek helped me gain a lot of confidence. I highly recommend ADVAN Driving School to anyone who needs a refresher or a new driver in general.

Derek really drilled me how to drive the best I could. I had only a month and a half left before my permit expired, and Derrick really drilled me to drive flawlessly after a couple of sessions. Though you can’t just rely on the lessons to help you pass the test, you have to practice by yourself too. Derek will always find a way that you can improve, and he’ll have you practice again and again until your driving maneuvers are nearly perfect. By the time your test comes, it should be a breeze compared to the lessons. Thank you Derek again for taking the time to teach me!

Mr. San is a very good driving instructor. He constantly reminds me of what to do and what not to do. Because of his instruction (and car that I practiced with), I managed to pass my behind-the-wheel test on my first try. I only lost one point. While being firm and teaching me practically every bit about driving, he is also friendly and "chill"; He is easy to talk to. In the future, I would recommend him to my friends who have yet to be on the road. ?

Derek pushed me to my limits. During his instructional teaching, I learned a lot, ultimately leading me to pass the drivers test with 0 incorrect. Derek would always correct my mistakes which helped me a million. #derekthegoat

I started looking up different driving schools in the area. I found ADVAN Driving School had a lot of good reviews. I had a few friends who took Derick as there driving instructor. They recommend him along with going on reviews. Derick is an amazing instructor. He tells you what you are doing wrong and how to fix the mistake next time. He was so patient with me. I ask a million questions and even repeated I'm an overthinker. Thank you so much Derick for teaching and being so patient with me!! Carly is amazing with scheduling appointments she is very accommodating. Everything is done thru text group. I recommend this driving school to everyone now!

I do not have access to a car and have been practicing driving only with driving schools. Before taking lessons with ADVAN driving school, I had taken ~10 hours of lessons with a different driving school, and then another 18 hours with ADVAN before passing the test. I enjoyed my lessons with ADVAN driving school because Dereck is the only instructor so there is consistency in what I am practicing across all lessons. Dereck is also very clear in pointing out my mistakes and what I should have done instead and I could feel my improvement and increase in confidence across the lessons, with zero practice outside of driving lessons. The communication with the school was also very clear and smooth in scheduling lessons and the driving test.

With no driving experience under my belt, I applied to this driving school with the goal of obtaining my driver's license. This driving school, accompanied with my instructor, Derek, were more than enough for me to pass my driving test. With a couple of lessons here and there throughout a few months, I was able to completely grasp the concept of driving. Derek was very instructive and able to easily explain all the rules of the road along with tips and tricks for a better driving experience. Overall, I highly recommend driving with this school and I can guarantee that you will be able to pass the driving test if coupled with hard work and dedication.

I got my driving license in California within a month .. YES!

I like to express my heartfelt appreciation and gratitude for the exceptional driving instruction and guidance I received from Dereck during my journey towards obtaining my driver's license.

I would highly recommend Dereck (ADVAN Driving School) as a driving instructor to anyone seeking to learn how to drive safely or improve their existing skills.
