EXCELLENT!!! If anyone in the Hudson Valley area is looking to learn how to drive, this is the place. First, customer service was OUTSTANDING!. She was kind, polite and very attentive to our needs. She stayed true to her word and followed through with everything. She responded to every text within minutes. Second, the instructor was PHENOMENAL!!! he was knowledgable, patient, soft spoken and truly cared about my son learning technique and rules of the road. He was always prompt and after each lesson throughly explained what areas of improvement was needed. He even went above and beyond and gave me at home pointers. Lastly, the level of integrity is exemplary. After purchasing my packet, I tried to purchase another however he was honest and told me that my son didnāt need an additional 5 lessons. Most places would have focused on the monetary aspect and gave my son lessons he didnāt need. In conclusion this was by far one of the best experiences. Not only did he do a wonderful job with my son but he taught his sister too.. And both of them passed the driving test on the 1st tryā¦. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ORANGE DRIVING...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSergio and Elina are awesome people. Sergio is an excellent teacher of driving. For example, he teaches you that half of the driving is nothing to do with the car, or the steering wheel, it is you maintaining composure, being cool. "Imagine there is a grandma in the passenger seat in the front. She does not like fast moves. She needs it to be smooth." He has a warm, empathetic personality and can easily connect with people. That makes it easy to take particulars of the lesson from him. I was struggling with parallel parking, half an hour later, I was doing it excellent. Considering he does it all day long, it is impressive that he can make you feel like you are his first student, and he is all enthusiastic about it. Elina helps with scheduling, and is an excellent scheduler. For example, she got me a road test date when the DMV site said none were available. The picture is me taking the bus to Goshen (NY) to go meet Sergio...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis is exactly what a driving school should be. Serge and Elena are wonderful. The other driving schools in the area are not good at communication, especially the ones in Monroe-Woodbury where we live. Elena answered our inquiries within minutes and we set up a lessons + road test package for our son. Even though we live in Woodbury, we worked out for Serge to pick up our son at BOCES in Goshen for each one of his lessons. Elena was always so helpful to schedule those days when they were convenient for us. Serge is an amazing and very patient instructor. Exactly what a new driver needs. He let our son know each time what he did well and what he needed to work on. He even gave him a āpre-testā and was very upfront about some deficiencies that would have kept our son from passing had it been a real test. They polished up those items the next lesson and then my son passed his road test first time. I canāt thank...
