Adnan was an incredible instructor. He was patient while I begun understanding the basic of how to drive, and was very supportive as I got used to the process of learning how to maneuver a car. His explanations were very thorough, and his advices helped me figure out what and how I could improve on future driving sessions. Even though this was my first time behind the wheel, Adnan’s positivity and the atmosphere he created allowed me to concentrate on driving safely while improving every time. I was able to learn basic yet key information, so I will highly recommend him to anyone, even if you are a nervous first-time driver like me.
Thank you Adnan for such a valuable lesson!

I had Kevin for my first lesson and Eduard for my second and third. Without them I wouldn’t pass first try with little to no errors. Very great instructors, thank you so much for teaching me!
If you’re an ambivert or introverted, Kevin is very friendly and makes small talk to lessen the awkward environment and for that I am grateful. It made me open up more and feel less awkward towards having an instructor.
Eduard may look difficult to approach first, but he is actually super understanding. He is great at giving small but super helpful tips that will fix your driving in no time. He can be nit-picky and detailed but that is why he is a good instructor.

My experience was a 10/10 at coastline academy with Eric T! He arrived on time infront of my house. We greeted eachother and then we immediately started our lessons. He helped me review some things before we got started on the driving portion. He was very patient with me. I often have trouble doing things without guidance, and like multiple tries so it takes me a lot of tries to get it right! I feel better about driving.I would recommend Eric T. for first time drivers because he was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and nice to talk to! Thank you so much for your time, patience and support during the lesson. I really recommend their services.

Taylor was quite disappointed that we were not alerted ahead of time that Alex was sick and could not show for his appointment time. We waited for 20 minutes for him and we had to call Coastline and then they had to track the information so an hour later we were told.

Jane is an amazing driving instructor! She is patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She explained everything clearly, stayed calm throughout every lesson, and helped me build my confidence behind the wheel. I always felt comfortable asking questions, and she made learning to drive much less stressful. I'm so grateful for her guidance and support. I highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a professional, encouraging, and supportive driving instructor!

EJ is a good instructor. He guided at all the right moments and helped me practice my weak points.

Robert was very thorough and patient. He made you feel at ease. Very good 1st experience. Calm instructor. Gave enough time to become acquainted with the vehicle. Explained what you needed to do, what you did well, and what you needed to improve in a clear and concise manner. He also has a great sense of humor :) while being serious about teaching.

I was scared for my first time on the road, but this instructor was incredibly patient and understanding with me. Because of this I managed to (while still nervous haha) stay calm and slightly relaxed the whole time.
For those who're just starting/on their first time or incredibly nervous, I highly recommend Zachary as an instructor :)
