Ruby was my primary teacher and she was a really good teacher from from day 1 because she was super patient with me and helped me learn how to drive. Alyaa was also my teacher for some lessons and she was a great teacher as well. Overall, I had a really good experience in the school mainly because both instructors were exceptional and I was able to pass my road test! Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Alyaa and Ruby are the best teachers. They teach you what you need to know about driving with emphasis on keeping the road safe. I passed my roadtest in one take! I realized the importance of driving schools vs using a private car for practicing. It is a lot safer and you do not take the road rules for granted. I highly recommend their services!
I chose this school originally because the price for the package was very good. 350 for 5 lessons, they schedule the road test for you AND you get a lesson the day of your road test. Ruby did excellent with the lessons which is why I passed my road test with flying colors. Couldn’t be happier! Alyaa and ruby were always so nice and accommodating and I highly recommend that you come here for your lessons and road test!!
My experience at Alyaa Driving School has been the best! alyaa was very welcoming and kind. I I took my 5 hour class and driving lessons with Alyaa which, she made sure to focus on the safety and precautions of driving. She helps guides you during your lessons and inform you on every detail that you need to know about driving. If you are looking for a sufficient driving school, outstanding lessons both on and off the road and affordable payments I would highly recommend coming to alyaa’s driving school. i loved my experience here❤️.
I am truly grateful I found this driving school. Mrs. Alyaa and Mrs. Ruby are amazing teachers. I was so nervous but they were very patient and made me feel less stressed and confident while driving . I passed my road test on the first try🥳🥳, I am so happy and proud of myself. Thank you guys so much for everything and i would highly recommend Alyaa driving school
I am truly grateful, the teachers are amazing, the things I appreciated the most is that, they are very patient and with a calm voice they made me feel less stressed and confident behind the wheel. I leaned a lot With Alyaa driving school and I passed my road test on the first try for a beginner I was so happy and proud of myself. I really recommend Alyaa driving school
I highly recommend this school for anyone looking to take their classes here and their road test. They are extremely kind and friendly people. I had Ruby with me on my road test and she was a wonderful, kind, and friendly person to have by my side. She made me super comfortable on the day of my exam!!
Both instructors Alyaa and Ruby are very good teachers. They take the time to tell you what you need to work on and could answer any question I had. One thing they did that other driving schools couldnt was build my confidence, they helped me realize that the mistakes I made were something I could use to improve. Thanks to them I passed my road test on the first try. You cant go wrong with this school!!!
By far, the best driving school in Staten Island! I had gone to a few before this one and it just wasn’t for me. I thought I would never learn how to drive. However, with just a few lessons with Alyaa I felt like a pro. She makes you feel extremely comfortable when driving and she’s also very patient while instructing. I even passed my driving test after my first try! 10/10 driving school!
I would highly recommend Alyaa Driving School. What a wonderful and knowledgeable team. It takes an abundance amount of patience to do what they do, they totally have it. If you looking for an affordable, skillful and secure driving school look no more! Call Alyaa Drivng School. They will take good care of you. Thank you for the knowledge and the great experience.
For the five lessons with them, the lessons were super constructive and I learned everything that I needed in time for my road test. The progress that I made within those weeks was more than I thought I couldve made. At the end of it all, I took my road test and passed it nicely thanks to the instructors.Alyaa and Ruby are great and encouraging instructors.
After a few attempts at getting my driver’s license over 10 years ago, I was extremely nervous to get back in the car and try again. Alyaa and Ruby were not only helpful but very patient and encouraging. I passed my road test today and couldn’t be more thankful for their lessons and support. They are wonderful ladies and I would recommend them to anyone interested in getting their driver’s license.
The driving instructor, Alyaa, is very well patient and understanding. Will constantly go over and over with you with driving instructions until you get it. No yelling, screaming, or pressure. If you have anything to say, she will listen to you very clearly and help you. The only problem I would say is the payment to use there vehicle, a little expensive compared to other driving schools. Will provide a lesson an hour before the road test without charge. It’s worth it
If you are looking to get your drivers license in NY this is the best place to go to. The instructors are very patient and friendly, perfect for new drivers. They give clear guidance and they’re very knowledgeable and always supportive of their students. Also the fees are reasonable for the services that they provide.
I am very thankful to say that I have passed my drivers test. Due to the affordability and many classes that have helped me gain my license. You also can learn many lessons on driving from the package that you take allowing many opportunities to be your choosing.Overall I suggest you give Alyaa’s Driving School a chance.
I did my road test today, and thanks to Alyaa and Rubys expert driving mentoring, I passed on the first try! I enrolled to Alyaa Driving Schools Plus 5-Hour Class Package, attended Alyaas class via Zoom, practiced driving with Ruby, and had a simulated road test lesson with Alyaa minutes before the actual test. I just recently moved here from a foreign country, and their driving best practices helped me to understand the unique traffic rules here. They patiently worked with me until I overcame my fear of driving in a new and unfamiliar area. I highly recommend Alyaa Driving School to any first time driver here in the US!
Happy to have met ALYAA and RUBY such warm and welcoming people. RUBY was my instructor and it didn’t take more than one class for her to teach me what was needed to be a SAFE DRIVER. I felt comfortable and confident that I would’ve passed my road test because of how thorough she was in teaching and how patient she was with me. Thank you ALYAA’S DRIVING SCHOOL for assisting me in earning my driver’s license.
Let me start by saying that the staff was lovely. With one lesson they told me what I need to fix and where i’m good at. Gave me basically what the test was. Day of the test took me 30 minutes early and showed me what was needed of me around the neighborhood i was going to take me test in. They really care and remember all of their clients. I passed my test, thanks to them.
The best driving school in Staten Island. I took a 30 mins class and then the test the same day, woww it was easy and not stressful at all, if you use their car it’s way better then practicing or taking the test with your own car. Because the person who’s testing you will feel way more safer and that will help a lot for you to pass.
The most thorough driving school hands down.I really appreciate the details and care that went into my driving lessons each time.I went from panic mode to confident mode here, that speaks volumes on this school as a whole. Alyaa taught me how to stay calm as a prospective driver during my first lesson and made sure I was aware of my surroundings at all times.She was very understanding and patient, answered allll questions/concerns I had regarding driving on the road and offered a simulation road test session before each of my tests. This helped put me at ease and even though I had failed my first road test, I did not feel judged by Alyaa, as one may know in that moment temporarily, failure can feel overehelming. Alyaa encouraged me to improve instead, and gave constructive feedback of what she herself observed that I could work on to get better and ready for the next road test.Her feedback is very helpful and honest which I appreciated so much. She didnt set me up for failure and made sure I was aware of what I needed to improve the most on in terms of skill.2 lessons later, and I have officially passed my road test, woohoo!!I highly recommend Alyaas driving school and I am very grateful to have found them! A hidden gem indeed. Now Ill be singing 🎶concrete jungle where dreams are made of..🎶 all week lol Thank youu again Alyaa!
I was looking for driving instructor for my grandson on April 9th. Initially, when contacting Aylaa, I wanted to make a an appointment for him. After scheduling the appointment for May 14th and 15th, it was only requested to send a copy of his driver’s license which I did on April 12th (a month in advanced). With his appointment being a few days away, I wanted to follow up to confirm the appointment and I found myself with disappointment when then cancelled due to not having any cars in service. If she knew this ahead of time, she could’ve let me know so I can make other arrangements. With having such a short frame in notice, I was not able to book another driving school because they have been all booked out. When I expressed my disappointment she replied with this message:“ 1- you don’t come to see our business good or not2- when we talked in the phone many times we told we don’t make pick up3- we don’t send us his information ( picture for drivers license)4- all students pay before them lessons 2 or 3 days”I have specific dates and times via stating the schedule, proof of sending his driver’s license, and considering the time frame—I would’ve been paying for the services tomorrow or Thursday (5/11-12). She has conducted poor business ethics and etiquette. We not recommend her service at all to anyone!
I am truly grateful I found this driving school. I was so nervous at first, but as soon I met my instructor she made sure I was ready and I passed with flying colors. If your serious and wanna get your license I highly recommend alya driving school. Its the best in the business and I will make sure everyone knows that. Thank you guys so much for everything you helped me with every step and made sure I had everything locked in and it was a great time and experience working you 😀
Im supper happy that I found this driving school. Im glad that I was able to past my road test with only 4 lessons and i passed because of the things that both the instructors taught me. They both teach you little tricks they you might of thought you never need and once learned you realize that those little tips were very helpful and there both very calm and patient when teaching lessons. Alyaa is also SUPER affordable and willing to work with you payment wise. I highly recommend this driving to anyone thats looking because trust me you wont be disappointed.
I am so grateful we found Alyaa and Ruby. Their patience, professionalism and teaching ability were exceptional. In addition ,they were affordable and unlike other schools I contacted, were honest in their fees and services and were happy to help. They gave my son the confidence and skills needed to not only pass the road test but to enable him be good and safe driver, as well as helping me feel more at ease with him driving. Overall a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend this school
Everyone at this driving school was very understanding nice and patient with me they made me feel like safe and accomplished it was because of them I was able to have another shot at my license my instructor made sure I was ready to pass my exam and with the level of confidence I needed I could not thank them enough Thank you ladies for taking the time to listen and understand who I was so you could help me accordingly…. I would recommend this driving school to everyone
Her instructions were super clear , she made meFeel safe while driving . Before her I failed my road test 3 times , right after one lesson with her I passed my road test with flying colors . She prepares you for exactly what the driving instructor wants to see on the test . Schedules everything from you’re roadTest to you’re 5 hour class . I highly recommend this driving school
After 15+ years of trying to pass the NYC DMV test, I passed it thanks to Alyaa and her amazing teaching skills! She helped me unlearn bad habits, taught me the proper way to drive and prepared me for the test! Amazing teacher. Im so thankful to you for helping me get my license after only 5 lessons! Ive tried other teachers in the past, and no one was close to her level of clear communication, confidence building and patience. Thank you, Alyaa and your whole team!
It took me a while to get my drivers license and I have had experience with multiple driving instructors from other top driving schools in Staten Island, however my experience with Alyaa surpassed any of those instructors, combined. Alyaa is an excellent instructor, she is very patient and will keep instructing you in a calm and compassionate way until you finally learn. I appreciate her so much and fully credit her for helping me pass my road test. I dont think youll find better instruction on the Island.
Alyaa is excellent instructor and she is patience with me. Her teach styles are well professional and easy to understand. She always make sure I drive correctly. She help me build my confidence on road. Her prices are affordable and flexible with payment. I took my second road test today and I pass!! I recommend her to anyone who want to learn how to drive correct way and pass road test.
By far the BEST experience I’ve had with a driving school. I have had lessons with both instructors Ruby and Alyaa were both patient, professional and compassionate. Alya driving school has helped almost half my family pass their road test. Alya was able to book me the road test ASAP and I managed to pass it on my first try. I can’t say enough about this driving school. I highly recommend Alyaa for anyone looking for driving school on the island.
Very helpful and sweet people. After waiting months for a road test appointment with another school, I was so happy to find Alyaa Driving School. The communication was great and very professional. They helped me get an appointment asap during these tough times and gave me a lesson before my road test too for a very reasonable price! AND YES! I passed my test. Thank you Alyaa Driving School!!
Alyaa provided the best service for such a great value! She was patient and truly cared about helping me pass the road test - which I was able to do the first time, without any prior experience driving before signing up for lessons with her. Couldnt have asked for a better instructor!
I truly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn more . Ms.Alyaa it’s so nice she helped me with all my paperwork i also had Ms.Ruby & she was the sweetest to me , she truly helped me on the road , she showed me things I didn’t know she was the best . Im sending my sister to them .
At Alyaa Driving School, I passed my license exam on the first try! Alyaa and Rob were both amazing instructors and I’m really glad they were available to teach me through the month. I’m a college student and my schedule is pretty tight most days. Looking for appointment slots at other driving schools is a nightmare but Alyaa has always been communicative and made ends meet when it came to scheduling.Before driving school, I had a fear of driving because of a bad car accident which occurred in the past. Rob and Alyaa were both good instructors and guided me though realizing that driving really is not as bad as it might’ve seemed. Both of them have very different approaches to teaching so I would honestly recommend trying a lesson with each to understand which one you’d learn best with.The prices were reasonable and the payment plan was flexible. All in all, a very good experience.
Positive, professional, and compassionate! Alyaa is an amazing instructor. My son failed the first time and she immediately booked him another appointment for the following week. She is so kind and really cares about her students and will go above and beyond to help them pass. Without her knowledge, patience, professionalism, my son would not have passed his road test the second time. Thank you Alyaa for being so genuine and caring!
The instructor is patient, knowledgeable and surely does no how to communicate with her student very well. If you follow her instructions, you can will definitely pass your driving test. I recommend Alyaa driving school to anyone without wants to pass their test .Thank you Alyaa driving school
The “BEST DRIVING SCHOOL” on Staten Island. Very motivating, compassionate and affordable. I failed my road test 3 times. Well, I was ready to give up on taking the New York State road test, that was when I decided to try once more. I called Alyaa Driving school as my last resort. I booked a few one on one lesson with them, and rescheduled a new road test with them. To top it off, they offered me a 45 minutes mock road test just few minutes before I took my road test! And kept ensuring me positively. GOOD NEWS!! I passed my road test today!!! Yes, they are the BEST OF THE BEST. Clean neat cars, the instructor arrived early for each and every appointment and simply cared, care for each students success!! Best choice I have made in a long time. Best Driving school on Staten Island, if you are a willing participant to learn how to drive and most importantly, to pass your New York State road test, this is the Driving School for you. Good luck to everyone.
I recently passed my road test on the first try thanks to alyaa driving school! I am very happy with my experience, alyaa is very knowledgeable, patient and kind. You if you already have driving experience or not she is the best not to mention how affordable the classes are. I already recommended her to my younger siblings and I would to anyone else.
Thanks to Alyaa Driving School and a special thanks to Robert my instructor. I recall I had less than a month to prepare for my road test after calling different schools in the area only to be told repeatedly that Id have wait MONTHS for an appointment for lessons much less get a booking for my road test. I then came across Alyaa Driving School, I must say that they immediately provided expedited services by offering me double lessons on the days that i was available due to my work schedule. Robert reinforced the steps needed and pointed out areas that I needed practice and ensured that I received valued service; based on his 30 years experience. I highly recommend this school, the rest is up to you as an indidual such as your pace for learning or whether youre a first time driver etc. or need to sharpen your skills a bit. Nonetheless based on their expertise as skilled drivers youre definitely on the right track to becoming a skilled driver. Yesterday I passed my road test on the first attempt. Dont Delay, Book Now
Spoke to a lady on the phone and wanted to book an appointment and she was very rude didnt want to give an appointment to someone who only spoke little English but completely understands it I had booked an appointment for a previous person with no problem before but apparently this time she couldn’t
I failed my test the first time I took it at another driving school, but Alyaa helped me pass on my second try. She is super professional and teaches you how to drive perfectly. She makes sure you know how to drive before taking your road test. If you really want to learn how to drive you got to take lessons with Alyaa driving school.
My mom only took 2 lessons with her and passed the test on her first attempt. Shes very professional, courteous and extremely affordable. Even if your English isnt too good, youll be able to master the road test without any issues. I definitely recommend her to anyone in NY area. Most schools dont have any available spots but she always has time. She will work out of her way to find a time that works for both of you, including even New Years Eve! Id give 10 stars if Google allowed it.
I can’t thank Mrs Alyaa enough, she is so great at what she does, she taught me so well more than anybody as ever did with driving,I passed my road test today 03/30/2021....I will forever be greatful to Mrs Alyaa. Also she’s so kind,patient and answer all my questions...please whoever is getting ready for road test,don’t think or look further ,just dial her number and you will come out with flying colors..🙌🙌❤️
This had some good reviews so I was like lets try it but the first time I contacted them they asked for some documents which I provided and after that they never responded to my text or call. so I was Patient because I thought it was small driving school so maybe they need some more time to confirm with all the students but again I did the same thing and theyd never answered my answers give them everything they need but they couldnt give me a strange answer when can they book my road test or when can the what is a package or how to book it or nothing like that SAVE YOUR TIME AND GO WITH SOMEONE ELSE
I want to thank Alyaa, today I had my exam and thanks to her after two unsuccessful attempts I passed it, in truth she cares a lot about helping you and making you feel comfortable she gives you a lot of encouragement and helps you not to lose hope, when she She gives you a lesson, she does it with such kindness and dedication and she cares so much for us to learn, I really recommend her school a lot, the truth is I had already lost a lot of hope to pass but she helped me a lot, THANK YOU ALYAA.
Alyaa is unprofessional, she’s a waste of time .When it comes to customer service she’s not goodat all, She booked me for 2 lessons and the day I supposed to get those lessons I get ready to go meet with her she sent me a text saying school is closed without rescheduling I text her to reschedule she didn’t respond, I called her she didn’t answer. If you don’t want my business, have some decency and let me know instead of wasting my time.
I had a great experience here and thanks to them I was able to pass my driving test. I would like to recommend them to everyone because the prices are reasonable and they actually care about their clients and make sure that they are able to pass their driving test with ease. Thank you very much Alia and Ruby for this wonderful achievement .
I appreciate the excellent service you provided for me. You did an excellent & professional job I am so happy that I took my road test with you thank you so much..I appreciate the excellent service you provided me. You did an excellent and professional job. I am very happy that I did my practical exam with you. Thank you very much..
If you are a person who gets nervous about any exam (like me 😅) Alyaas school is for you, it is the best driving school in New York, Alyaa is very patient and very professional, I have a little experience in drive and with Alyaa I learned to drive very fast in 5 classes I was ready to take the driving test, and obviously I passed it 😎_______________________________________________________________Best driving school ever, I was really nervous because I have little previous knowledge about driving. Thankfully, I found Alyaa school, I can’t describe to you how amazing this woman is, she is very nice and professional, after 5 classes with her I was ready to take the road test and I nailed it 😎Thank you Alyaa very much
Excellent service with professionalism, honesty, punctuality and flexible prices .... I felt confident in taking my driving test ... I definitely recommend it!Excellent service with professionalism, honesty, punctuality and flexible prices .... I felt confident in taking my driving test ... I definitely recommend it!

2022-06-23M experience with Alyaa driving school is great! I had Alyaa as my instructor for all of my lessons and even though i was a new driver, she was very patient with me and helped me learn and grow in confidence in my driving. The most important part of learning how to drive is to be taught by someone who is patient and trusts you behind the wheel so you can learn. She gives clear instructions and is good at noticing strengths and weaknesses to help prepare you for the test. Very accommodating and makes everything easy for you by taking care of scheduling a test, five hour class, etc. You will not regret using this school to pass your road test!

2022-05-10My experience at Alyaa Driving School has been the greatest! Both Alyaa and Ruby were very welcoming, kind and patient. I had Ruby for all my driving lesson and she was very kind and thorough with her lessons and teachings but most importantly patient. I took my 5 hour class with Alyaa and apart from going thoroughly through each lesson and detail about the road, driving, etc, she made sure to emphasize safety and precaution. If you are looking for a great driving school, easy payments, and great lessons both on and off the road, and people who care for your success, I would highly recommend Alyaa Driving School.

2022-07-25Alyaa Driving School is amazing when it comes to the lessons, prices, and most importantly, the instructors. I had Ruby as my instructor and she constantly reassured and encouraged me throughout the duration of lessons, making me more confident in my skill. The day of my road test Alyaa had me practice ahead of time and the excitement she displayed when I was properly going through with the simulated road test sheds light on how enthusiastic she is about teaching. With all of that I was able to pass my road test. If you’re looking for a memorable and successful experience, Alyaa Driving school is worth every second and penny.

2022-09-16My experience with Alyaa driving school I was great! The teachers a both very good as well as nice. They handle everything for you, classes, 5 hours class certification, as well as booking your appointment. The whole experience from the start to end was honestly so easy and great. They took me to my first test and a pass with only 15 points off!!! Honestly I’d recommend them to anyone that wants to get there licenseOr anything related. ☺️

2022-08-14Had a great experience with Alyaa and Ruby! They teach with great detail and patience, and make you feel like youre worthy to drive even from the first lesson. I was able to pass my road test on the first try with their instruction and I never thought I would be capable of that! Alyaa and Ruby are super friendly and welcoming as well as calming and reassuring, especially if youre a bit nervous behind the wheel. Their instruction is also thorough based directly off of how to pass the road test, as well as repetitive so that it really sticks in your mind and becomes second nature over time. If youre looking for more personalized instruction like I did, I highly recommend Alyaa Driving School! Thank you both!

2022-08-05This is the Best driving school i went to, Alyaa gives very clear instructions on how to pass the test and makes sure to help you pass the test and become a good driver.I went to three different driving schools both in Staten Island and Brooklyn, however none of them were as clear and attentive as her.She really cares that you pass the test and makes sure that you are 100% ready for it.I would have went to her from the very beginning if i knew how amazing instructor she is. She made me feel very calm and comfortable on the road and gave me so much confidence to pass.Thank you Alyaa you are truly the best :)))

2022-07-21Alyaa driving school helped me tremendously in passing my road test. Both Ruby and Alyaa were very patient with me and they always encouraged me and boosted my confidence. They gave clear instructions and were very calm which helped me relax as a new driver. They are very caring and they want you to pass.They also respond very quickly and the payment process is also very easy. I recommend Alyaa driving school if you are beginner or if you just to improve your driving and want clear feedback.
