Amazing school! Instructor Stan did an amazing job! My son got the driving license right after he finished his 9 classes!

Josef is a great instructor and know his job very well. He is very dedicated and professional. I really appreciate his calm personality with positive attitude towards teaching. He observes your every move and makes you practice on the required things. His honest feedback helps you to improve and correct your mistakes. Scheduling classes with him is very easy as well. I passed my driving test today and had a best learning experience with Josef. I highly recommend OEDS and Josef!

I took driving lessons with Josef and Trini. Can't thank them enough. Had a great experience with both of them. They made sure I wasn't nervous and anxious and were very patient with me throughout my driving lessons. Boosted my confidence alot. Would highly recommend them for a great learning experience. Thank you again for all the help!

We had such an amazing experience with Oregon Elite Driving School. Josef is fabulous to work with, and all the drivers my son had made him feel comfortable and successful while still teaching him. We originally chose those route because traditional driver’s ed courses wouldn’t work with our schedule. But I think we will go this route again for my other two boys when it’s time. Thank you, OEDS!

I would like to thank Oregon Elite Driving School in helping me to learn a quality defensive driving skills. I got the opportunity to learn the driving skills with Trini. She is a excellent teacher who taught me all possible ways to be a defensive driver. She is very knowledgeable, polite, patient and friendly instructor. I felt like I got a very customized training from her based on my weak areas. Gradually, I was able to improve all those areas with her guidance and today I am very confident driver. I cleared my DMV driver test. I would also like to thank Josef Robleto for helping me to get a very flexible timings and schedules. It was very important for me to balance it with my work schedules. I wish Oregon Elite Driving School a great success a head. I will highly recommend their behind the wheel lessons.

As a student I can say that do a great job! The class is very informative, the instructors and friendly, and overall it’s a fun course :)

Very helpful class, the teachers do a great job of teaching the essential skills needed to drive and more. Very easy to communicate and plan drives with as well.

Jose did such an amazing job with our son. Our son was a little apprehensive when he first began, Jose taught him information, and most importantly why that information was necessary for his safety. This really helped our son become more confident driving!

I had 4 lessons with Mr. Jose Gonzales and i highly recommend him. Amazing teacher with a great manner, very calm and professional. I felt thoroughly prepared for my drive test with ODEC and passed on the first try.

Lo mejor de todo es la forma en la que explican las preguntas que van a aparecer en el examen, ya que usan ejemplos y se hace fácil relacionarlo con ejemplos y recordarlo. Gracias a su clase pase mi examen auper facil

I would highly recommend doing your behind the wheel drivers test through pacific driver education rather than the dmv. super nice people!! My instructor was Skip and he was a very down to earth guy, he gave outstanding instructions during my portion of the test and explained at the end of the test how I can overall better my driving ability’s on the road even though I passed with little errors!! It was worth every penny to do my behind the wheel drivers test through this company.

This place is the place to go to take your driving test part in getting your drivers license. Drivering Instructor was friendly and gave out clear directions that was easy to follow. And afterwards will give you constructive critisism in areas of your driving that could use improvement if he spotted any. I showed up for my 10am appointment and was out before 11.

Had my kiddo do her driving test with Pacific Driver as it’s impossible to get it scheduled with the DMV. Pacific was reasonably priced, it was easy to schedule, and most importantly the driving instructor/test person was really kind and knew how to put a teenager right at ease immediately. He also gave her a few tips to help her continue to improve. Would totally recommend

Steve was amazing!!! He tested both my kids today and made them feel very comfortable. He explained everything well and made us feel safe. The process From start to finish was very easy and went seamlessly. Thank you! We have two happy drivers. Cheers!

I took my driving test here, I was super super nervous, but my tester, Skips, did a great job of making me feel comfortable. I passed first time! I felt super comfortable, it didn’t even feel like a test, it just felt like I was driving and someone was giving me directions. I was nervous about using a different car, but he told me how to use everything and gave super clear directions. It felt nicer than driving my own car! Would definitely recommend taking your test here! (especially if the DMV has no available appointments like it did whenI was trying to schedule my test.)

Great business. Personally didn’t have a bad experience. Staff were very professional. I failed my first drivers test so I experienced two different examiner's. Both were great and professional. Didn’t make me feel bad for failing or ridicule me. I recommend this place to all who need DMV services.

Unfair treatment and poor experience — especially for non-native English speakers I had a very disappointing experience at Pacific Driver Education. If your English isn’t perfect, be prepared for unfair treatment. Gerry Asato, one of the examiners, is especially unprofessional and biased. He seems to target people with limited English skills and makes the test much harder than it should be. While most people are taken on a standard 15-minute driving test route, Gerry takes his students for 25–30 minutes, making the test unnecessarily long and stressful. And guess what? Almost no one passes with him — no matter how well they drive. It feels like he has already made up his mind before the test even begins. It’s clear that some instructors at this school are not interested in helping people succeed but rather in failing them and collecting fees for retakes. This is unacceptable behavior, especially from a school that advertises itself as professional and inclusive. If you’re looking for a fair and supportive place to take your driving exam — look elsewhere.

Easy to book a drive test, and it was easy to reschedule (well in advance) through their text messaging system. Checking in was quick, and my driving observer Andrew was courteous and clear during the driving evaluation. The car they provided for the test was clean and well kept. I would definitely recommend this company!

Great program! Understanding of people with Intelllectual differences, and still fair. Communicative, direct, kind, amd comforting. Great feedback and thorough. Thank you guys for your help!

The staff was professional and friendly. My instructor Gabby was informative and gave easy to follow instructions. The car was smooth and felt very safe. I 100 percent recommend!

Mr Mohamad was literally never on time, the instructor was always a couple minutes late to the zoom meetings and late to in person drives. Horrible communication skills, I never got a response to my scheduling the written exam and had to reschedule and specifically tell them to respond to confirm and then they were late to that by an hour, I had to reach out multiple times to get any response on my behind the wheel test after giving them 3 weeks of availability and despite being told they would reach out to me. The instructor was also chewing gum on every drive and not giving instructions until I'd almost miss it. Also misgendered and deadnamed me on multiple occasions. Ms Rachel however was very kind and professional and actually asked what name I prefer and used it, she only did my drive test but it was the only time I wasn't stressed out during the course while behind the wheel. They do not give refunds which makes sense considering I would have asked for one after the second lesson. Also when I went to get my license a month after the road test the DMV did not have my information and I had to call the school and as for them to actually do it. Overall not a great experience and would not recommend to anyone.

Would NOT recommend at all. This was the most unprofessional "company" that I have ever worked with. On the very first day the instructor was 15 minutes late with no apology and no acknowledgement that he was this late. I had talked to another customer while I was waiting and he said that he had been waiting there for 30 minutes so I guess it could have been worse which is insane. The lesson that proceeded was just what you would expect from a guy that showed up 15 minutes late, extremely sub-par. He spent the first 5 minutes (after being 15 minutes late) texting some girl on his phone and rummaging around in the trunk for something. He said very little during the lesson and basically just said that I was doing everything perfectly (which I definitely was not) After the first lesson, I got a new instructor who was the owner (Mohammed.) To his credit, he was an actual instructor and he did seem like he actually knew what he was doing. Unfortunately, the entirety of the 2nd lesson was essentially spent unteaching me everything that the first instructor said I should be doing. They weren't even in sync on something as basic as where I should have my hands on the wheel. The first instructor said 10-2 and then Mohammed said it needed to be 9-3 due to new air bag placements. Regardless of which one was correct, its absurd that 2 instructors of the same driving school wouldn't even be on the same page on something as fundamental as this. In the week leading up to the test, I still had around 4/10 hours remaining so I booked 2 lessons that week. The first lesson was okay except for the part where the driving instructor (a new one) made a joke about wishing that he could hit bicyclists "like they did in Chicago" which I found to be somewhat distasteful considering he was supposed to be teaching safe driving techniques. The final lesson is where things really started to go downhill though. It was the same instructor as the first lesson and surprisingly he was on time this time! He still managed to spend the first few minutes on his phone but that was fine because its not like he did any real instruction regardless. He had me drive out to the Clackamas ODEC to "do practice" which essentially amounted to parallel parking once on a random street near ODEC and then driving around for 5 minutes. Then we spent approximately 7 minutes just sitting in the ODEC parking lot while this dude looked up the location of the physical building. I didn't know that was what he was doing at the time and I would have objected if I did because it was completely absurd that we drove all out of the way to just "see what the building looked like." Even the instructor seemed very confused about what we were doing there and just said "this is where Mohammed said to go." During the lesson he was on his phone for about 45 minutes of it and then, after we get back from ODEC, we stop at the gas station to fill up on gas. We were there for about 20 minutes and I couldn't believe that he hadn't filled up the tank earlier. I was paying about $100 per hour here and to spend 20 minutes of that time sitting at the gas station was completely insane. In an earlier lesson we had spent about 10 minutes at a gas station which I thought was weird at the time but I didn't say anything because I assumed it was just a one time thing. The worst part is that neither instructor even offered to add extra time onto the lesson that was spent at the gas station. When I texted Mohammed about this he said "its absurd to say we can't fill gas during sessions." When I requested a refund for the last lesson and the time I didn't end up using, Mohammed was extremely combative and unprofessional. If there was an option to leave zero stars here I would, clearly there needs to be more regulation on drivers ed companies here in Portland. EDIT: in the reply below, the owner claims that i “wanted to be dropped off at the gym” which is clearly not true as i biked to the lessons everyday and it would make no sense for me be dropped off somewhere without my bike.

We picked Horizon Driving School by random and glad we did. My instructor was Rachael and she was terrific!! She's very patient and is committed to teaching you how to drive safely. She's totally set on seeing you have a pleasant experience and not only learn to drive good but learn all the rules of the road. If you're on the fence about Horizon and have concerns, don't worry. They'll see to it that you have a very pleasant experience. They work around your schedule. When you book, try your hardest to get Rachael, you'll never regret it!!

I had a fantastic experience at the driving school! The instructors were experienced and flexible with scheduling lessons! They provided great support and made sure I felt confident behind the wheel before my driving test! Highly recommend!

I would completely recommend Horizon Drivers Ed to anyone who is looking to learn how to drive. They are small business in a shared office space. I had Rachel as my instructor the whole time. She was patient, even tempered, understanding, and fun. I liked how she would give me tips on what to look for when parking and merging into other lanes. Anytime there was a sticky situation she would calming assist or take over. I would recommend booking an hour lesson right before your driving test if you go through the third party tester. It really helped to have that lesson and be able to driving around Clackamas. I wasn’t as nervous when it came to the test because of that.

Very professional service! Make you feel at ease for such a nerve wracking experience as passing your drivers test! I was scared for no reason! Kris was great at giving directions and then the feedback! I would recommend to use ODEC for your driving test!

Driving test was great. But, be warned that they funnel positive reviewers -- and presumably not negative ones -- to rate them on google. Reviews might not reflect quality of their classes.

Great place with many locations, Kris was super prepared, very professional, and greeted us nicely. He explained everything, and made sure my son understood. DMV was 5-6 weeks out. I booked my sons test a week before with ODEC. Great people, great organization, and affordable price.

Terrible service, they cancel your appointment at the last minute and don't let you know. I'll never come back.

Was able to schedule my test a week and a half out, got there early cause I was excited. Time efficient and was very professional with everything. One thing I did have a concern with is my instructor had me cross over a double yellow which is never permitted unless for a emergency situations. But overall I’d highly recommend this company if dmv isn’t an option

Es falso llegue y solo es un lugar de correos no hay escuela de conduccion en este lugar

My review is for Scott Kefgen as my instructor. I was successfully able to earn my license on my first try after taking a couple lessons with Scott. He goes beyond what is expected for a driving instructor, because he really wants all of his students to pass, but also succeed as safe and competent drivers. He comes prepared -every student is given the guide packet with basic driving rules, but more importantly relevant tips for the test. We practiced on a route that was very similar to the one I ended up taking with the DMV, and every lesson is based on improving your weakest areas -he leaves extensive notes and adds grades to the rubric on the packet after each session. Those will be used as the focus for the next lesson. You can easily tell he comes from a teaching background, because he will let you know bluntly what you did wrong and encourage you to try again. The immediate feedback is so the lesson isn't wasted on time dancing around the problem area, and instead more time could be spent to correct the issue. Scott was also very accommodating by asking the students if they are comfortable with driving, asking if their seat feels right, if the music or windows need to be adjusted to minimize distractions, or if he was stressing the student by giving too much feedback at once. After going through the lessons with Scott, I was surprised at how easy the DMV driving test was, and I know it was because Scott prepared me for it more than enough. Every student should have a driving instructor like Scott at 1st Learn to Drive, and I will be recommending him to my peers. It is very likely you will pass the driving test after learning from Scott.

Wonderful instuctors.. they will treat you like family and help you succeed.. greg and wes are the best instructors i have ever met,. I loved the experience and would recommend and do it all over again… loved this class.

Really 4.5 stars. I see a lot of comments about the office communication, and they’re right, I had trouble getting them to relay information to my instructor. That said, Jeremy was a really good instructor and made the lessons engaging and easy to understand. I feel like I needed to know a lot of what they taught and it was really helpful to get this information. It’s also nice that the class includes the final drive at the end so you can earn your license with someone who at least knows you.

Rachel is the best instructor ever, she was so professional and informative and her voice put me totally at ease I highly recommend Rachel

That was one of the best experience I have had behind the wheel of a car. The instructors were the best. Calm encouraging and very professional. I would encourage anyone who drives a car no matter what the level of experience to go try this. It was so much fun.

Unique and rewarding program for anyone seeking to improve their driving skills. The entire Pro Drive team is welcoming, supportive, and extremely knowledgeable.

Fair price for a great education. a small amount of classroom time to understand the principles, but then a lot of time behind the wheel gaining experience!

Great experience. Chris the instructor was great. A ton of fun, and could feel my driving improving by the end of it

The instructor I spent most of my time with. Was Matt. Very good instructor. He not only made me feel confident behind the wheel. He also lowered my Anxiety as well. He worked very hard to help me achieve my goals everyday. He is very good at doing his job. Thanks again Matt! You're awesome!

If you’re looking to get your cdl. This is the best of the best. They give you everything and more to pass on your first time and more. You will get what you put into the program!!! Jeff mike Matt and frank you guys are awesome. Keep up the good work!!

Huge shoutout to Matt. He was one of the best instructors I had. Matt had some sick maneuvers that shocked me. If you wanna get your CDL A, come to this school and let Matt teach you.

I had a very good experience here with a lot of the instructors! Jason, Jeff, Bill, Annette and Ken all helped me out along with there senior students! They provide the proper paper work for pre-trip Oregon and all the equipment you need! Thanks guys and gals!

Matt Poulson & Mike (Yard Dog) & Jeff and all of the instructors including Frank are the best they are very knowledgeable about trucks and driving them. Also want to say Thank you to David Llanes and Daniel Ishmael they are the gate keepers and are happy to help anyone get inside of a truck and hold your hand the whole way. Thank you boys for everything. I would reco. 160 to anyone. Thanks

Driving is stressful for me but this company's wonderful instructors really helped with that, especially Randy. He was hilarious and kind. He made sure I was comfortable and made sure to correct me without being harsh when I made a mistake. :)

My driving lesson with Scott was amazing! He was very professional, and was on time to the lesson. He was patient with me and very attentive. He explained what would be expected of me on the upcoming skills test, and also helped ease my nervousness as he calmly guided me through the entire lesson! I'd definitely recommend enrolling with him for driving lessons!

Steven was an excellent teacher of whom I will never forget. Whenever I come across a four way light, his words echo in my mind, "Left, front, right." If I ever find myself down, I always find myself thinking about how in our 4th class he said "over there" almost 500 times.

Absolutely amazing experience with 1ST LearnTo Drive! The instructors were so patient and encouraging, and my teen went from nervous to confident in just a few lessons. They made learning safe driving skills fun and stress-free — and my teen passed the test on the very first try! I can’t recommend them enough for parents who want their kids to be safe, capable drivers. Thank you as well to the owner, Mike, for making all this happen.....

As someone who spent the first 22 years of their life in school getting various degrees, and also been a teaching assistant in grad school, I recognize great pedagogy when I see it. And Scott absolutely has it. I had six 2-hr lessons with him over the last two weeks, and passed my behind the wheels test this morning. The notes Scott provided on the first day had concisely worded facts about driving in Oregon, how to execute turns, merges etc., and also on how to sign up for testing appointments. These notes were really useful, and reviewing them before my lessons and the test definitely helped me remember details I would’ve otherwise forgotten. During the lessons Scott was basically the dad figure who ought to have taught me how to drive when I was 16. He was calm, patient, and very cognizant of my strong and weak points while driving. He basically had a lesson plan going all throughout my classes with him, so I was able to review my misses and mistakes from each class, and never made them again in subsequent lessons. 1st Learn To Drive is incredibly lucky to have Scott as an instructor with them, as is anyone like me who has had the chance to learn under him. He has my absolute and unequivocal recommendation to anyone wanting to not only learn how to drive, but also learn how to pass the test.
