Matt's Driving School is beyond spectacular! From the excellent customer service to the clean cars they supplied, we were so happy with our decision to choose them. Definitely will be recommending this driving school to my friends and their children as this was a breathtaking experience!

One of the best driving school in whole San Diego. I had talked to almost 10/12 school before settling for Matt Driving School. If you are in San Diego, you can never go wrong with Matt driving school. Matt himself is very professional and humble. He is very courteous and helpful. The instructor ‘Joanna’ is also very calm and helpful. Me and friend took classes with them and we both cleared our driving test in the first go. Also it’s very economical compared to other schools. Highly recommended. I see that many of low ratings are due to Groupon Coupons. I also got to know about them from Groupon and called them before I was about to buy the coupons. Matt explained me in detail why those coupons won’t work for me. I guess people should contact the store first before just buying coupons because at the end it’s the store who honors the coupons not the Groupon people.

Jose was such a great instructor !! I was so nervous and have always been scared of driving and he helped me lose my fear and tackle the road !!

I feel absolutely ripped off. Purchased a groupon (I'm a single mother of 4), only to find out that they were going to charge another $125 once we attempted to redeem the voucher. Plus, they won't even begin the classes until you pay the additional money. I do not recommend this place. The guy who called even seems condecondescending and has I couldn't care less attitude. Not a happy customer!!

He was very good instructor, gave me a lot of confidence and skills/reminders so I could pass my test. Passed with a near perfect score, thanks Matt Driving School for all your guidance.

I passed my driving test on the very first try. Gilbert is the best instructor, he encouraged me on my driving. I was very nervous driving for the first time but he helped me get confident. Thanks for all your help, Gilbert! Definitely recommended!!!

I really highly recommend this place to everyone my instructor was so polite and the first thing they ask is what my daughter needed help in . My daughter is very nervous she already took like 3 tests and didn’t pass and with this instructor he took his time to teach her to park,reverse, and how to go in and out of the freeway thanks MATT DRIVING SCHOOL I really appreciate everything you did for my daughter and she passed her test woohooo????????

HUGE SCAM....Discount coupon on Groupon seems like a deal till they charge you an additional $120 for the certificate and $25 per day pick-up fee. Like the other reviews when calling to schedule an appointment they said additional fee needs to be paid to cover the certificate..I was referred to the "fine" print of their groupon add. They did state "Certificate not included" but failed to include it is $120 in that "fine" print. They will tell you over the phone to look at their website. That is some shady BS!!!!! Complaint being filed with Groupon and the State. Regarding the business response. 1. Learn to spell...every one of your response's has a typo. 2. I am the Grandpa you talked to on the phone and I did not abuse you...I asked if you were sh#tting me about the additional fee's not listed on the Groupon. 3. I do live in San Diego so the cost of living is apparent to me but what does that have to do with your deceptive advertising? 4, The Groupon has not been redeemed yet nor will it because my research has found a less expensive driving school here in San Diego...BTW...their fee's are all listed on the front page of their website...no need to search as required on your website. I have filed a complaint with Groupon with a request for a refund as well as the BBB. Have a great week

I learned the rules of the road and how to drive here. They don't mess around at this school and it goes by quick, especially if you schedule your drives ahead of time. They've definitely prepared for all the driving I will be doing.

I had an excellent experience taking the knowledge test with him so I came back to him for my drivers test and he killed it. 2 for 2. Super knowledgeable and helpful, a real pleasure doing business with you sir. Five stars would recommend to my friends.

The school was excellent at teaching good driving habits to beginning drivers. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. I had a great time during my classes! They were great and I was glad to be learning from them.

Absolutely amazing driving school! Everything was a breeze from in class to in school. I just passed my G2 road test and am very thankful for my driving instructor, who taught me how to drive with incredible patience and guidance. I highly recommend Matt Driving School!

Fabian Lopez

Great Service! I highly recommend this driving school. They were on time, car were clean and the instructors were kind to me and my kid. Group-on is a great deal compare to real price but for me safety came first. They are open to train 7 days a week big selling point for me. I have recommended Matt Driving School to all my friends and family members.

Priscilla Ayub

This is one driving school that actually explain things before taking your money. I like the fact that they were accommodating the times I needed nights and weekends. Thank you Matt Driving School!

Michael Greenstein

$155 Groupon actually cost $275. You buy the Groupon and then they refuse to give your kid driving lessons until you first pay them the $120 certificate fee. Their response to me. I should have read the fine print. I sent them PICTURES of the fine print they told me to read. No where does it say you have to pay anything else before they allow you to do the driving classes. They are just wanting to scam you out of more money because being honest up front apparently is lost to them. All the site says is certificate not included. Not "we will refuse service to you unless you pay us $120 more". I'm not the only one. Check out the other reviews on yelp.

Oscar Benson

Everything seemed to be going ok, but the last day my son texted me telling me he would be done one hour earlier because they had booked another kid with him so they would share the 2 hour lesson. Nowhere in the contract did I see that he would only get 5 hours of driving after I paid for 6. They sell you cheap lessons and at the end they rip you off!!! Extremely disappointed!!! And besides they take forever to get you an appointment!

Best driving school in San Diego, my son was preparing for his road test and thank god the instructor was considerate and worked around his school since school is being done at home due to virus. The prices are reasonable and the cheapest, they are so responsive with emails and calls. And the service is the best I have ever seen for this industry. Call them and let them know they come highly recommend on Yelp and now on google. These are the business that thrive on dollars and sense.

Olya Kash

Highly recommend Matt driving school. I had the biggest fear of driving but they put that fear at ease and I got my license within the allotted hours I paid for. Tried other schools but this one is by far the best.

Pablo Ramirez

Amazing customer service. Very responsive and dedicated to the success of my daugh

My 16 year old daughter today reaped the rewards of going to Matt Driving school, she passed her DMV driver's test with flying colors!!! For our 3 driving appointments, they were knowledgeable, professional and courteous. The last appointment was a practice run of the DMV's drivers test itself, including driving the DMV actual route. What a god-sent! My daughter was soooo nervous and knowing not only the route, but the individual things the DMV rep is looking to mark you down on really helped prepare her for the driving test. Thanks Again Matt Driving School. Steve V.
