Athol-Orange Auto School

"Took a few private driving lessons with Bert and thanks to him I was able to feel more comfortable driving. He taught me how to parallel park which that was my main concern other than being so nervous behind the wheel. Thanks to him I was able to face my fear and just go get my license and thankfully I passed."

"I would caution any nervous drivers against taking lessons with Bert. I requested a private lesson as a completely new driver and warned beforehand that I was very anxious behind the wheel. Although I do think he tried his best, Bert's teaching style was much too harsh for me and it triggered a major anxiety attack behind the wheel. My anxiety isn't his fault by any means, and he did end the lesson with a few words of encouragement, but it was overall a traumatic experience and left me feeling very hopeless. I since heard from two coworkers about similar experiences with Bert and figured I should write a review to warn any future anxious students. However, if you don't mind a harsher teacher I can say that his communication was very professional and he made it a point to prioritize me during the lesson. He was also able to fit me into his schedule very quickly and his prices were quite low! He would probably make a good teacher for a resilient student, but if you need a patient and gentle teaching style Bert isn't your guy."

"It is very nice person and very nice work!"
