What Our Students Say

  • Michelle Dann

    Misses Tara was really helpful. I only to take both drivers tests and choose her school because it's close to where I live and had openings for when everyone else was months away. She was clear in her instructions, had a really great and friendly attitude with everyone.

    I would recommend her driving school for all your driving needs. Tara is the BEST.

    I cannot recommend Complete Driving Experience enough. If you are looking for a driving school that is inclusive for people with anxiety, ADHD or other learning difficulties. This is the place for you. Tara and staff are amazing so calming and knowledgeable. My son was having such testing anxiety. With their assistance, and provided tools. He was able to feel confident, and be successful. Thank you so much!

    Complete Driving School has been instrumental in helping me overcome my driving anxiety. Richard Dubois is an exceptional instructor. Although I only completed two lessons with him, he provided the skills and confidence I needed to feel truly comfortable behind the wheel. I am incredibly grateful to this school. Tara and her team is knowledgeable, patient, and supportive throughout the entire learning process. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a positive and empowering driving experience.

    I hadn't really driven much for years until I took three CDE classes. Now I have a license! The instructor was very helpful and supportive. She explained things in a way I found easy to understand, pointed out errors I didn't notice, and I always left the classes having learned something. The only issue I had was finding the place the first time! Although I got what I wanted, I wouldn't mind having more classes with CDE in the future. Thanks!

    The staff was exceptional and professional. CDX is a great place to get your drivers license. Top rated school that goes above and beyond to help every student.

  • Kesha M.

    I'm glad we went with this driving school for my daughter. Everything was easy as far as getting her started and completing all the steps needed for her to complete the program. I'm not going to lie my daughter called me out on a few things after starting this class, which lets me know she was actually learning how to be a responsible driver. I have one more to go and will definitely be sending him through this program.

    Taryn P.

    Great customer service, they have a new 2020 Toyota Corolla, the instructor takes her time to make sure you understand things and helps you feel comfortable. I really enjoy going to class with Mrs. Tara she helped me get my license back can't thank her enough for the help!
