The Next Street - Westport

"If I could give 0 stars I would! The next street cancelled my daughters scheduled behind the wheel lesson and after a whole week of chasing them they finally rescheduled her to today (Sunday). Only to find that the instructor for this class was a no-show. That’s a 50% failure to deliver so far (she’s only had 1 of her classes actually occur). Their customer service is ineffective to non existent. And good luck trying to reach anyone on a Sunday even if classes are scheduled. Not happy and do not recommend. Update: true to their word, the Next Street called and worked with us to rectify the situation and my daughter received great instruction behind the wheel (and as scheduled). Mike and Patricia were amazing teachers. My daughter passed her driving test last week. Updated to 4 stars!"

"The Next School is a very well organized school, and they have amazing instructors. Mine was Victor. He explained every little detail to me and then sent me all the information after the lesson, so I could review it. He was open to any questions even after the lesson, and he also bought me Starbucks to cheer me up cause I was nervous. He is awesome! I had one lesson with him and passed on my first attempt."

"I enrolled at The Next Street at the beginning of September. I had my zoom classes spaced out until the end of October, the 26 to be precise. I was always on time, put my name in the chat all three times like they request, and answered questions when I was asked. I was not really learning anything but that is because I was (sorry, I AM, have to use present text as 2 months later, I am still having to do more classes than I was initially told to do) only taking these $799 + tax classes because if you pay money, you only have to wait 4 months to get your license, not 6. I have had not very good customer service, first being how I had to send in photos from me being in class as proof, and then over a month later being told the teacher didn’t see me in class. I have PROOF that I was. But hey, if they work for you, I guess they are always right. I told the last guy who I talked to on the phone who was the most helpful out of a handful of extremely unhelpful customer service people. However I will say I had a good driving experience with Patricia (ask for her, you won’t regret it. You will both learn about proper driving etiquette and about her sons life). I would run over to Fresh Greenlight if I could in an instant. But I’m not about to throw away (I guess I already did signing up for this thing) over $800 over a petty 2 hour class. Overall, if you want to have your child retake classes for the heck of it, go for it. But if you are part of the 99%"

"I had Victor as my instructor and he is amazing at his job. He taught me everything I need to know and went above and beyond to send me everything learned in the lesson, and some tips for my road test. I highly recommend him, he is the best!"

"The Next Street is a great school especially because Victor is the best instructor ever! He takes extra steps and time to make sure that the student gets additional knowledge and advice! He suggests youtube videos to further the knowledge of his students. He analyzes the weaknesses of the student and makes sure the student gets better. I would definitely recommend Victor as an instructor at the Next Street!"
