We went in this as a couple and it was an awesome experience for us both. Joe in the classroom was awesome. Our yard instructors Shawn and Derrick were great also. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to get their CDL Class A!
Fantastic experience working with 160. From the office/classroom to the driving range. Joe,as busy as he was working with the office portion of the school always made time to answer questions. If by chance he did not know an answer he would reach out to people and find the answer for you. Personable and very friendly even in a business atmosphere. Shawn, Derrick, and Jared were incredible in the field. You are going to have good and bad days and struggles practicing. They pay enough attention to see I was struggling and frustrated and stopped me knowing I was doing more damage than good to myself. On another note, I had a personal loss one day in the yard and was called to the side to see if I was alright. Took the time to personally reach out to me while we all know that was not in their job description. Shows great character by them. AND the excitement they get seeing you succeed and pass you your cdl is really something to see. They might have been more excited than I was. I cannot thank you Gentlemen enough!!!!
I had an absolute blast!!!! Working with Joe in the class was a treat. He was on point, responsive, and reliable to answer all my questions. The instructors in the yard were amazing!!!! They know they what they are talking about. Trust them!!!! Dont be stubborn, they know what they are doing. Dont be afraid to ask questions, dont be afraid to walk away and take a breather. Trust in yourself. Have a positive attitude. The attitude you come in with, is the attitude you will walk away with. Have an open mind. Trust yourself!!! You got this!!! Good luck!!!
Great school Jeff in the office is the best super helpful goes the extra mile to help. The Yard InstructorsSean and Bruce are awesome they helped me alot and now I have my Class A. I highly recommend you go see Jeff .
The instructors are great they are always willing to help you out. The only down side is there’s not enough time to properly learn to drive a manual truck.
The worst school I have ever went in. They are only there for the money. They don’t care about there students.
It was a fun experience
Critical: Quality
I showed up to my meeting with Crystal on time, another young man was waiting before me. A lady who worked there (I'm assuming is Crystal? I never got her name) came out didn't know who I was and had me repeat my name a few times. I scheduled this meeting last week and it felt like she was not expecting me at all and didn't even know I had an appointment. The meeting area/office is open space so I got all my questions answered from listening to her speak with the guy before me. After 20 minutes I left, it just seemed like this driving school wouldn't be a good fit for me right now.
I appreciate all the instructors who helped me along the way to getting my Class A License and all of the beautiful women in the office behind the scenes getting work done and making sure each of us were good and a special shout-out to my branch manager Ms.Stacie she is the best!!! Highly recommend this school if you are thinking about getting your license.
Amazing school to go to. Everyone there is helpful and on your side in helping you to get your class A CDL license. I would recommend.
Chicago south shore location the best there is. I want to thank Crystal first for encouraging me complete this class and change my life. The Harvey yard is outstanding it can be tough at times but its worth it. I recommend Gerald ONLY on pretrip he is a life saver. When driving you should start with Jessica then Patrick and L they will make sure you got it. Al and Lenny will smooth your grinding clean out those guys are the best though all the instructors are good I recommend those.
There are some people that go to work because they have to and there are some that go to work because they love what they do. Crystal,the office manager at this location, without a doubt fits the description of someone who finds joy in their work. I visited this location just to obtain information. I had already decided to go with another school before I walked into the door. However Crystal's soft demeanor cordial attitude and willingness to help me make the right decision cemented my decision to focus my career goals with this organization. If there were only more people in the workforce like her.
160 Driving Academy is a great school. They will get you ready for the state test.
Instructor Phil was very helpful and patience instructor while I was taking class in Charlotte NC division. Very understanding. I’d like to give a big shout out to Tony and Roscoe as well. They are amazing team members of 160 Driving Acadamy. I couldn’t have done without their help.
