This maybe the worst driving school in Maryland !!!!!!!! The teacher Ms.Young acts childish like she has a disability she is very controlling, classes are now online and she tries to tell you what you can and can not do in the comfort of your own home. Penalizes you for the smallest things such as using the restroom during class, not being at home during class, and leaving your home during break time, just so she can kick you out of the course and keep your money. The woman who sits in the office to answer the phone is very short and disrespectful, they do not answer the phone until you call about 30 times, and I feel like they are just calling their self a driving school to get peoples money but kick you out every chance they get, to keep your money also Ms.Young is very unprofessional if you are writing in your book to take notes she assumes your not paying attention and puts you on blast infront of the entire class! DO NOT CHOOSE THIS SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Genesis Driving School was such a great experience ! Mr. Johnson did not only make learning comprehensive but he made it fun. I looked forward to coming to class the next day. Mrs. Waters was my driving instructor for my behind the wheel test ... she was patient and taught me all of her tips.THANK YOU GENESIS DRIVING SCHOOL!

I loved my classes at Genesis Driving School. All my interactions with the staff, was 100%. Mrs. Waters is the awesome owner of the school, and I am so grateful she has this business to share with us.Mr. Johnson was the best and has a genuine passion for what he does. I feel like I was in the best class ever. We learned a lot and had an amazing time learning. Now that we have completed our 30hrs of classroom studies... I am really looking forward to completing my 6hrs on the road with whomever my teacher will be.Thank for all the love!!!!!Best Driving School***

My son was a student there in October. We were both so thrilled with the level of instruction given and genuine concern the instructors displayed towards the students. The owner of the facility was super accommodating and listened to concerns with the intent of resolution and not dismissive. I highly recommend this school for anyone interested in getting quality driving education.

My daughter took classes back in the beginning of October, she just now completed her driving portion. This is/has been completely unacceptable and attempting to call and inquire about it has been so awful. The lady who answers the phone is so short and disrespectful as if we (parents) has something to do with whatever issues she was experiencing at the time. I am very dissatisfied with the level of professionalism received at this school and the mannerism in how the business is conducted. My daughter did say that the classroom portion was good, however everything else after was terrible. They are in desperate need of improvement.

Great school! Ive been out of school for a while but the teachers really made it enjoyable to be in a school like setting and learning again. Mr.Stokes was extremely informative & funny. And Ms.Waters was patient, kind and someone with a goody energy about them. If you ACTUALLY want to learn a thing or two I couldnt recommend this place enough. Thank you guys.

This businesses owner is fantastic. She takes the time to explain the schools policies and processes which makes it much easier to understand. Moreover, she is personable, professional, and cares about her customers experience. My family and I would like to say, thank you so much for your manner and for uplifting us and our community, be blessed!

My first son attended this school and still refers to his driving lessons as a great experience. Im looking to send my second son here as well. The women that ran this business were great...firm and patient. I believe God Blesses those that take time with his children. I cannot thank you enough. :-)

It took me FOREVER to go to driving school but Im glad that I went with Genesis. Mr. Stokes and Mrs. Waters were absolutely amazing and they actually took their time to make sure you knew what you were doing, in the classroom and behind the wheel. I keep seeing comments about the wait time to get behind the wheel being too long, well it was stated in class that if your availability is open it would be easier to get it done...I took my class in May and I was supposed to be done in 2 weeks earlier, but life happens and some things had to be changed but I got it done, they made sure I got it done. Thank you!!

Wonderful experience in all aspects! My son told me that the driving instructor is very nice and talked him through the necessary steps and things to look for when teaching him to drive and park. Everyone cant teach because they lack the patience and necessary skills to articulate to various learning levels but Genesis nailed it! I want to say thanks because my son had become quite discouraged with my antics while trying to teach him to drive. Thanks a million Genesis Driving School.

The best driving school! I learned how to park within 5 minutes! Really easy! Also the instructor taught me how to parallel park, that was also 5 minutes! AMAZING teacher! and instructors!

I feel way better now!Honestly I was to scared to drive, I hated it but now I’m very comfortable!!Don’t be a dummy and miss out on GENESIS DRIVING SCHOOL! Fr!

My daughter didnt get the promised driving time. Her time was always split between two additional students in the car. She even drove to pick up other students and her instructor was hungry, so she was instructed to go to the drive thru at a restaurant. My daughter said the driving instructor was always on her phone. Please contact Google, I my receipts. My daughter was a student two years ago. Facts are facts.

Genesis Driving School is amazing!! The teacher I had was Mr.Stokes, he was truly the best. He made the lessons fun and interesting. The way he teaches really helps you remember the information. Also the owner of the driving school is sooo nice. They really take everyones schedule into consideration when it comes to signing up for on the road driving classes. I would highly recommend this driving school.

Review №44

Not happy with my time here. My instructor Mrs.Waters was a bit rude. She told me I was “making things harder than what they were” when really I just needed extra help. That’s not what you tell someone who paid $350 for driving school. Second, she didn’t set up cones for me since it was “too cold”. Also, I felt as if she wasn’t very attentive to me. She would point out and ask me why did I make a mistake and then ask me if I made a mistake. Which is a bit alarming because you are supposed to be paying attention to me as the “instructor”. Mr. Stokes was the only good thing about this driving school.

I just want to clear up something with the general public and any driving school which the managers of the school may not tell you. If you coming from the Caribbean and you have a valid license you may not need a driving school. Please do your research. My nephew spoke to an agent at the MVA but he did not mention he had a valid license from Grenada so he was told to take the 2 week class but at the end he still had to do a drug test online then a test at a given location and the drivers written test at the MVA and there was no need for the 2 week class. Look up Kelly 3 hour Drug test.

Review №52

I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL TO ANYONE. This is such a waste of my time and money. As if the useless class sessions were boring enough. This is not worth it. I had my driving appointments cancelled 4 times within 4 month span. Each time it was cancelled it was some stupid excuse and I had to wait longer just to get my driving hours finished. If there is a number in which I can report this school anyone please let me know because paying $350 for this driving school is the worst investment you will ever make in your life. The only good thing about this driving school is Mr.Stokes because he is an excellent instructor and actually takes his time teaching students the proper way to drive instead of talking unnecessarily the entire ride.

Review №53

The in class portion of this driving school is good, but when it comes to on the road lessons there is a bit of a problem. My driving school time dated from the end of November to beginning of December. I was eligible to receive my provisional driver’s license in December. My original on the road appointments were dated January 18th, January 30th, and February 12th; which was fine. On january 30th there was incelement weather therefore my lesson got cancelled; which is also fine. My mother then called Mrs. Waters to ask when I could get that lesson rescheduled. Ultimately, my last two lessons ended up getting moved to March 24rh, and April 6th. I think it is unfair and extremely frustrating to have to wait 4 months to complete only 6 hours of driving time. If you are anxious to get your license, I WOULD NOT recommend Genesis Driving School.

If youre looking for a phenomenal experience or a place where you know your money is going to the best option, look no further!!! My name is Amayah and I went to this driving school for the full two weeks and not only did I get my license the very next month, but I gained so much value here its insane. Shout out to Ms. Shippel!! All of the instructors there are amazing people but I was blessed and fortunate to have Ms. Shippel as mine. She really wants to see you succeed not just in driving school but in life, I thank God for meeting her. I could go on and on about how special this place is and the people, but it will be better for you to just go yourself!

I gave 3 stars for the informative classes and the driving instruction was great. I was dissatisfied due to long waits between classes & on the road driving appointments. Before scheduling the class for my son, I specifically asked about the length of wait for the driving instruction after classroom part was completed.I also explained to the companys representative that my son had a job beginning the end of July that required he have a drivers license by then.I was reassured that the driving portion would be assigned no more than 2 weeks after the classes end & my son would have his certificate of completion by July. But when an instructor arrived in class to schedule driving appointments, she stated that did not have available time sooner than 7-8 weeks out!!Absolutely a contradiction to what we were told before registering for this class. It is unjust to pay your non refundable fees under false information received.I would like to suggest to the company to make sure that all employees (especially the phone consultant) are properly informed of current wait times as to not jeopardize the integrity of the driving school.
