Testimonials
Definitely 5+ stars to Golden’s Driving Academy!! Mike and Alicia were awesome to deal with for the driver’s ed course!! Both of them were informative, courteous, professional and very accommodating. Not only did my son attend their driver’s ed course but we also took advantage of their other services such as driving to prepare for his road test and renting their car to take for his actual test. If anyone is looking to enroll in driver’s ed, I highly recommend Golden’s Driving Academy!! ( My son passed his road test first try!! Just sayin!!)
I love that everything is in person learning! Many sessions to choose from and the instructors are flexible when it comes to drive time. The Goldens are super nice and I’m so grateful they offer pre-test practice. They set students up for success! Highly recommend!
Mike and Alicia did a great job in classroom instruction and on the road driving. Very happy with Golden's!
