I generally, I joyed the class! I even learned things; I had forgotten, and, or learned things, I didn’t even know! It was upbeat, and very informative! I would recommend, ATC qualified driving Academy
I had a great experience! All of the teachers and staff were very professional and made sure that each student understood what was being taught. I would definitely recommend their 14 hour class it’s the best for quick quality learning.
Ms.Suzette and the whole staff were great instructors, they made the class: fun , memorizing, and also full of education. They led me to a successful pass on the knowledge portion.
Amazing class. Mrs. Suzette was an amazing teacher she made the class very fun while also teaching us which made taking her formation in very easy. Thank You Mrs.Suzette.
Out of all the stories I’ve heard, I was very nervous to take drivers ed, ACT made a very welcoming environment and I passed due to my awesome teacher Ms Suzette.
