Just graduated today, and I honestly couldn’t leave without giving CL Driving School their flowers. First and foremost, shoutout to Mr. John. From day one, he never switched up always patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about us learning the right way. He takes his time, answers every question, and really knows his stuff. You can tell he’s been in trucking a long time and has seen both the good and the bad. If you listen to him and trust the process, you’ll be straight.
I also want to shout out Ms. Iraida. She’s the sweetest person ever like a second mom to the whole class. Always encouraging, always checking on us, and even bringing snacks to keep us motivated. If you ever need advice or someone to talk to, she’s truly there for you.
Malachi is another great instructor very hands on and patient. He really helped me understand backing and trailer control, and he takes the time to make sure you actually get it. Solid instructor and an even better person.
Even though he wasn’t my main instructor, Mr. John (automatic) still found a way to help me along my journey, especially with backing skills and confidence. That meant a lot.
I’ll be real I almost quit. There were moments where I felt overwhelmed and doubted myself, especially with backing. But if you stay determined, stay disciplined, and put the time in, it will click. The way the school is set up, they guide you but still make sure you learn for yourself. Before you know it, things that felt impossible start making sense.
Shoutout as well to Mr. Nerio and Mr. Fernando both very patient, professional, and serious about making sure you actually understand what you’re doing. They’ll question you, challenge you, and make sure you’re prepared for the real world, which is exactly what you need.
This program was truly transformational for me not just learning how to drive, but learning discipline, patience, and confidence. CL Driving School didn’t just help me get my CDL; they helped change my mindset.
Big shoutout to the entire CL Driving School team. God bless y’all and everything you’re building. 💯
