My experience as a student of this program was nothing short of exceptional. The program itself was a very useful tool in getting me used to maneuvering a car and seeing how to drive in a realistic situation. The teacher gave amazing feedback that furthered my skills and was extremely kind and motivating. I can definitely see myself suggesting this to anyone who feels they need it.

The Driving Experience provides a venue for would-be drivers to learn, build-on, and/or sharpen driving skills in a safe environment. My daughter spent 7 hours in a simulated environment and I can say that she learned a lot with her time in the simulator (and Lina’s guidance) without the added stress and pressure of being on the road with other cars and pedestrians. Lina is very patient and encouraging. She’s also very generous with her time and expertise. I highly recommend The Driving Experience.

I highly recommend this place! I’m forever grateful to have met Lina, the owner. Her patience and knowledge helped my daughter overcome her fears of driving. Best decision I ever made!

I would highly recommend this class for everyone especially for those that are visual learners. I took driving lessons before coming to Driving Experience, they really didnt explain the rules of the road. Lina is very patient and knowledgeable. Contact her today!! :)

So glad I found this program! It has allowed my daughter to slowly get familiar with driving and driving situations. Should be a requirement for all kids before they start drivers training. Lina is great, she’s a great teacher and very supportive. I highly recommend this program to all teens learning to drive.

The Driving Experience fills a much-needed void when your teen is learning to drive. Great simulator and patient instruction. We live near Los Angeles and its worth the drive to Irvine. I cant recommend this business highly enough.

The Driving Experience is a great way to get the rules of the road under your belt before actually driving. It definitely puts a parent’s mind at ease knowing that your child can experience a simulated road/driving situation before actually getting behind the wheel. I would recommend this to any parent as an accompaniment to behind the wheel driving training.

If you are looking for a way to help supplement your drivers behind the wheel training, this will definitely help. The simulator has allowed my daughter to become more aware of her surroundings and to anticipate possible scenarios when out driving in the real world. It also provides a safe environment to understand better these situations and has built her confidence while preparing to take her drivers test. Lina provides a lot of encouragement and her calm approach to teaching is absolutely amazing. My daughter is grateful for the experience and I highly recommend giving Lina a call to see if this could help your child.

Lina at The Driving Experience was top notch! She was so kind and professional. She gave the individual time and attention to my daughter that she needed to help her become a better driver. I highly recommend this program if you have a teen interested in getting their drivers permit. The program is worth every penny!

My 22 year old son attended for her intensive training and truly benefited from the experience. Lina is wonderful and patient and really understood where he needed help multitasking and focusing while driving.This is a blessing for anyone struggling with driving and who needs a little more help.A huge gift to our community. Would highly recommend. Definitely a great value as well.

My mom signed me up for this driver simulator program. I found the courses to be very beneficial. I am more confident now as a new driver and I highly recommend this experience to any new drivers.

Wow! What a great experience for new drivers! I took my 2 daughters to The Driving Experience so they could get driving practice in a more controlled setting. As I sat and watched, there were scenarios that wouldn’t necessarily be experienced during the permit period. The equipment was state of the art. They both feel that they learned a great deal. My younger daughter isn’t quite ready for her permit so she didn’t have any driving experience. It was amazing to see her growth over the month. Lina is a wonderful person! Such a great teacher with a calm demeanor and was flexible. Highly recommend it to all beginning drivers.

I was referred to Lina by my psychologist who also works in the same building. Lina is an amazing and extremely friendly teacher that offers lots of emotional support and driving tips. Understanding that most of the students here have had some kind of trauma related to driving or have general learning obstacles, Lina pays lots of attention to the student’s response to the driving course and their internal conflict. It is great for students to see that they are not alone with the AI teacher in the screen, but also a much more real teacher physically next to them, as learning to drive is a practice which requires both the body and the mind. Lina is also flexible with scheduling.About the course itself: the course is pretty realistic, with a few glitches once in a while (which can range from funny to kinda scary — eg. seeing a pedestrian get hit). But I still like the course a lot, because it is very detailed, and gives me lots of important tips about how to expect hazard, spot it out, and avoid it (or at least pick the safest way to confront it). It is pretty interactive, and fun. I think the virtual class is in a way more difficult than real driving conditions, since it brings all the possible hazards in front of us. However, I would recommend not to think of the class as a game, because even if there is only a small chance that it happens in real life (for example, you might think “I’ll never need to drive in snow/rain/etc.”), it still might happen. And often times it is more likely to happen than we tend to think.Anyways, I really enjoyed my experience with Lina and with the course, and combining with my psychology sessions, I’m getting over my past trauma and getting more and more ready to confidently and safely drive in real life 💪💪

Lina is an excellent instructor and mentor. She is providing a most needed service for soon to be new drivers. She has great patience and skill and I highly recommend this course for any teen or new driver.

I highly recommend this for all teens (and adults) just learning how to drive. This program immensely helped my child gain a better understanding of traffic rules, road signs, and signals that no written test or book knowledge could ever properly prepare you for. It takes you through various road conditions and unexpected real road scenarios and I feel far more confident knowing that my son understands these things now because of this program. I can’t recommend this enough! Every teen learning to drive should go through this program.

Highly recommend for teens. Great extra experience for teens drivers. Gave my daughter that extra confidence she needed. This is the perfect place for them to practice without actually being out in the real world. Great place to make and learn from their mistakes! Lina was great and very patient with my daughter.

⭐️⭐️⭐️was looking for a driving course/class for my teen that would help with quick thinking situations while driving. Well I found it. I don’t know why they don’t have this in every high school.👍🏼 When you go and see for yourself, you to will be sold. You and your child will have more confidence and security. My daughter was able to experience situations that would not be available to her on the road. Great location. Nice office, accommodating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great introduction to driving. I was pecially liked the reinforcement of key concepts such as “scanning” and being prepared for “what if” situations. For someone with very little experience, this was a safe way to gain some. Thank you Lina!

I would definitely recommend this program to a parent who has a teen that is struggling with anxiety while driving. Lina focused on education, mindfulness, and confidence with my son. Thank you Lina, you are client-service at its best and a role model.

Lina allowed the family of a child with ADHD and learning disabilities to breathe more smoothly as our child navigated simulated driving conditions. The equipment is state of the art, and realistically tested driving skill and focus while distracted in urban and rural settings. We chose to require our child to pass each module at 100%. This probably increased the number of times we came in, because our child would get frustrated and be scored lower. Lina was incredibly gracious in allowing us to do more sessions to ensure our child learned to temper her frustration and to focus. Lina kept our child (and us) encouraged and hopeful. We cannot say enough good things about this program and Lina!

The driving experience was a very helpful program because I got to practice my scanning skills and to see what it was like to be in dangerous situations without it being dangerous.
