I am very grateful to Mid-City for helping me to pass all CDL exams. The school was recommended to me. No regrets. All instructors, especially Igor & Lupe & Arthur :) were very helpful. Because I was working Mid-City provided a flexible schedule. Do not shop around. signup with MidCity. They have plenty of trucks with manual and automatic transmission. After graduation Mid-City help me with job placement. Looks I will be going on my first trip in the next 10 days. Thank you. I love you guys. Maria.

I was xtra motivated to start at mid city. Unfortunately today I had unexpected Attitude for no reason! from phillip, if you want to help good if not i make a way!! If Im not aware of myself and I’m quick to say something then it’s good that someone like me is not around a community like mid city!! Thanks to all even Phillip nothing personal I just don’t take attitude for no reason. If I make someone uncomfortable then it’s better to leave in my opinion Good luck mid city!!👍

This company is objectively honest and knowledgeable. ‘Philip’ is the man - to say the least. Very informative, polite and kind. Get your true money’s worth and give Mid City Truck Driving Academy a call. I personally had a great learning experience with them. The people there are sincerely willing to help you and get you on the path to success.

Review №27

Look no further! These guys are at a whole different level as compared to the other schools within the area. It begins with the staff from the front office to the guys in the yard who does the hands on training. I couldn’t have been much happier with the decision to get on board with them. They guided me throughout the whole process and were patient with my schedule and accommodated me with such professionalism.For all of those who are considering to join the academy, with the Covid-19 concerns do not worry they have remote learning. It makes learning a whole lot smoother from the comfort of your work schedule. Juan who is your instructor is an amazing person. He strives to take out the best of his students each and everyday. He makes learning exciting and teaches us based on his 20+ years as a professional trucker.

This was a great experience, they worked with my crazy schedule and understood that I do have a life. Everyone from the owner to the lady in the office made me feel like I mattered and not just money for them. I will recommend this driving school for anyone that wants to be a driver. You will fall in love with the service you receive. The instructorsare extremely helpful and dont just throw you in the truck. They make sure you know what you need in order to operate the truck safely.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Mid City. The staff is extremely personable, friendly, knowledgeable and always caters to each students’ personal needs. Their facility is clean, professional and their yard is conveniently 5 minuets away. If you’re thinking about going anywhere else, DON’T! I felt so comfortable and at home. They truly want to see their students succeed and it shows. Everything you need for a CDL is right here at Mid City and so much more! Thank you Juan, Lupe, Philip, Egor, Umberto, Angie and everyone else there for a unforgettable experience!!

The best truck driving school! I sincerely thank all the staff of this school& I emphasize again, this school is by far the best truck driving school in area .

Review №41

Great people here no doubt! Office staffs are very helpful and friendly. Yard/Pre-Trip instructors are with good experiences and very patient. Best of all, their scheduling are very flexible and will work with students based on our time and availability.For skill test, they only teach left parallel parking, left offset parking and straight backing. I wish they also teach 90 degree backing, because it is important to have this skill in the real world. Most students get assigned two hours of driving time on scheduled date. I think many driving schools arrange only two hours per student per day so they can get more students in. It could end up taking longer (5-8 weeks+) to complete the program. I later learned there are companys out there that pay for your driving school can get students trained up in 2.5 weeks and ready for the test on the 3rd week. Of course, it maybe more stressful on that kind of tide schedule.The equipments in the yard all have some ages. Students have to learn Pre-Trip/Driving from a variety of different trucks/tralers. One thing can be sure is that once the students graduated from here, they can master what they will be handling day to day in the future with ease.Recruiters from different companies joined the class for presentation from time to time. The school doesnt have contracted company guarantee (if hireable) to hire you after graduation. Students have to research and apply jobs on their own just like any other job in the open market. Staffs were given helpful input on job hunting if you do seek their advice.Another thing thats super fun to do over the yard is rocking the truck by going thru the pot holes by the corner of the entrance. Be sure to give it a try if they are still there. ;)

One word, Amazing. It took me a month and a half to get my CDL. Great staff, great instructors., you wont need to go anywhere else to get your CDL (except to the secretary of state of course). They prepare you for all your exams and assist you with any questions or concerns you might have. It was worth every penny. Bottom line, if youre looking at any other schools, I highly recommend you dont and just go to Mid City Truck Driving Academy.
