Reviews of 1st Choice Authorized Driving (Driving School)

I loved this driving school. Had to take the adult abbreviated classes and it was a pretty good price. Had an 4 hour class and 4 hours on the road. My instructor Esther was very helpful with helping me with this course. She was so helpful that I passed the driving exam on the first try. If your an adult or teenager needing help with driving 1st Choice is the way to go

My son loves it there for driving school. He’s 16 and has his temps. There are really backed up with the driving portion of the school. There are three driving instructors. I was told they are getting to the students that completed the June classes now. It’s Aug. 9.? Not sure will my son will drive

My son needed to get lessons in order to retake the manueverbility test. This location offered the best price. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I have a teenage daughter who will soon need driver's education and I will definitely take her here.

Esther is very wonderful. She was extremely persistent in making sure I understood the tasks that were given to me.

I had one two-hour lesson with their instructor, Paris. I had been driving for almost a year with my temps, but needed help with maneuverability before I took my driving test. Paris worked with me and taught me some great tricks, while also giving me pointers on my driving skills on the way. He was extremely calm and helpful. I'm happy to say, I passed my driving test on the first try! Thanks, first choice!

I never in my life do reviews, and believe me when I say I am writing this review to help others. I had Paris 3 times for behind the wheel for 2 hours each time. From someone who only had two practices with their father , Paris taught me a lot especially maneuverability! One turn , two turn , one , literally! I passed my driving exam today and if it wasn’t for Paris , I wouldn’t know how to drive. Thank you Paris !

Chiara Strong

I had a wonderful experience with Paris instructor if you need driving lessons please go here you won’t be disappointed they are very patient and understanding they are great business God bless everyone

Paris is patient, calm and an experienced instructor.

Maya Ford

Took this school when I turned 16. Didn’t know a thing about maneuverability. Couldn’t get in our out right lol. But Mrs. Foote was the best teacher, she taught me right! I passed my drivers test on the first try and I’ve made absolutely no mistakes or errors. Thanks first choice!

I paid upfront for driving instruction with 1st Choice for my 18 year old son which was to include using their car for taking the test. They made us set the appointment a full month and a week in advance, because according to them they were very busy. On the day of the highly anticipated driving and driving test appointment, they did not even show up. Totally unprofessional. My son was very disappointed. I paid for the session upfront and have yet to receive my requested refund which I demanded immediately. I will file a lawsuit in the coming days. I find their customer service and overall business practices abhorrent and I would highly advise against using their services.

Just ask for Paris. And and license will magically appear on your doorstep.

Ray Wall

Very professional and entertaining! The instructor is very active and understanding.

This driving school was the second one attempted . I tried Pro Driving school first. I had an impatient instructor and customer service personnel are rude. 1st choice authorized driving school has great customer service. And the instructor Paris is the best. I was a first time driver, took 8 lessons and passed the test my 1st try ever. He is very patient and just overall has a great personality, also experienced knowledgeable driver. They do call you to confirm your appointment beforehand whether it's customer service or the instructor, so the instructor doesn't waste his/her time driving to your home. Instructor also calls upon arrival. If you miss them just call back. I didn't have any issues at all. They also charge extra for longer distances out of their service area. It's worth it !

Eshter is a great driving instructor. Very informative and motivating. I highly recommend anyone to have her as an instructor.

Jordan Walker

Just passed my driving test today thanks to Esther! Esther was very knowledgeable and patient. She made maneuverability very easy. I would highly recommend, also lessons are very affordable!!

Eloise Bullock

The instructor (Paris) is very knowledgeable, thorough, and professional. He goes over and beyond what you would expect from an in class instructor. Their doors are always open to students past and present. I AM A VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMER !!!

Jalaunder Gammage

Paris is a very good driving instructor.

I enjoyed Esther’s class!

Kofi Amponsah

I had my abbreviated class and driving lessons with Esther. She was amazing. Well informed, friendly, and patient. She made maneuvering a piece of cake. I would definitely recommend!

Phillip Hwang

I took the abbreviated 8-hour behind-the-wheel private lesson with First Choice and passed the driving exam with a 90/100 on my first try without much other guidance. I was so impressed by how easy my instructor made it. My instructor was the most laid-back person I've ever seen. Driving for the first time on the highway is scary, but his calm demeanor kept me calm, relaxed, and safe. He told me that he's been doing this for 22 years, which explains why he seemed to be such an expert. He never freaked out, even when my noob driving caused me to stop in the middle of an intersection with cars going 35 all around me. He knows the test backwards and forwards, along with every road in Cleveland. I guess that's the kind of knowledge you accumulate by living here all your life and being a driving instructor for 22 years. He knows all the potholes, all the little tips and tricks to be a safe driver, along with an impeccable understanding of the standards that the test holds drivers to. I highly recommend First Choice. In fact, I have already recommended it to several of my friends. If you want to learn how to drive safe, First Choice is the way to go.

Esther is the best instructor and I prefer u let her get u ready for the driving test.

I honestly couldn’t be more upset right now. The in class part of what I paid for was amazing. Great teachers great classmates. Just 10/10 but for my in cars I was given a lady to message after I paid the other half of my payment. When I received her number I text her and we discussed a date for my in cars at the end of June (not a specific date) so I text her (2-3 weeks later) to see when I would be able to do my In cars and I can schedule my test at the dmv from them being booked up because of COVID. And she responded telling me “I’m off road” meaning she can’t do my in cars anymore. I completely understand but it’s the fact that u had to message her in order to find out and how I have to find a new instructor and fit into their backed up schedule and wait even longer.

I had two two-hour lesson with Paris and I passed my driving test (I needed to pass the road test). Good instructor and good driving school.

Surbhi Singhal

I had been struggling with driving for a whole year with my previous school. After i started lessons with my current instructor Paris at 1st choice, I felt a huge improvement in my driving skills and felt much more confident . Paris is a very experienced and patient instructor, I would totally recommend this institute.

Ms. Esther was great to work with , she squeezed me in to get me done quick and know I’m a better driver !!

Bre’Ahnna Joi

I've always been terrified of driving but Paris made me very comfortable. He's very patient and willing to help. All you have to do is trust him and you will pass! After 2 driving lessons with Paris I passed my driving exam the first time around!!

Nina Sims

This place is EXCELLENT! I had amazing instructors, it was welcoming and fun, and it challenged me! 10/10

Dominique Williams

I did the Four-hour lesson with their instructor, Esther and the class was great I’ve learned more then what I thought I already know and I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Galileo Perez

He was nice, he helped alot and I felt comfortable driving with him.

Chris Young

A really good place to go. The instructor takes you through every step and will have you confident and road ready in no time.

Chardone Calhoun

Ms. Hall is the best with helping students understand every thing on the road. She is such a wonderful teacher. When I first started I told her that I was nervous to do the maneuverability part of the driving test, she then said to me don't be nervous we're going to get you together. Ms.Hall's "smiley" method was the best thing ever and "go to money and away from danger. " I recommend Ms. Hall for anyone ready to learn.

Raquia Hendricks

Vik Gid

(Translated) I had a teacher, the olfactory woman Esther, given the not very high level of my English, she chewed everything, repeated it and practically only worked with me personally. I took a 4 hour lesson???????????? (Original) У меня был преподаватель обонятельная женщина Esther, учитывая не очень высокий уровень моего английского, она все разжевала, повторяла и практически персонально со мной только и работала. Я брала 4 часовое занятие????????????

Shomari Blythewood

I am in the process of completing the 8 hour Abbreviated Drivers Course. Today I finished the 4 hour classroom instruction with Esther. She is very nice. I look forward to the 4 hours of on road instruction I'm going to have with her.
