Learning to drive is not cheap and often very tiring and stressful, so finding an excellent driving school and a great instructor to learn the ins and outs of driving from is very important for making the learning curve less steep. If you are currently looking for a driving school for yourself or for someone else, such as your teen child, here are a few tips for you:

• Research local driving schools – ask around among friends and use review websites to find out what others think about the schools in your area. Most driving schools also have social media profiles, so you can check them on networking sites, too;
• Pay attention to the special features highlighted by the schools in their ads – you need a patient and knowledgeable instructor, so look for that feature and choose a school that advertises intensive courses if you are pressed for time and you want to complete the in-classroom course as quickly as possible;
• Pass rates – find out about the driving school’s overall driving test pass rate and your potential instructor’s pass rate as well before you enrol into the driving school;
• Reasonable fees – don’t choose the cheapest driving school, but don’t choose the most expensive one either, look to a Lakewood driving school that is rated excellent amongst your neighbourhood friends and families.
