Dexterity Driving School

Would not recommend to anyone of any age.

I decided to try this driving school, after finding a loving social deal. I will say it was super easy to redeem the voucher and book my driving session. The instructor did show up late but overall, the first lesson i had with this company went well. Gave me tips a previous driving school company never gave me and made me feel confident in my driving skills. The instructor said I was ready and encouraged me to schedule my road test with the dmv. So I did but also agreed to one last 2 hour session the day before the test.
Friday we agreed that I’d be picked up from my job. On Friday I never heard from the man, after texting/​calling he sends some odd message stating «something unusual happened he can’t do my session» okay so I’m thinking well what about my test the next day. He stops replying to my text and the next morning he never shows up. I was left with the dmv cancellation fee and had to wait another month to take me test. Sketchy company.

Very Rude! and does not value the customers time. I’ve had several encounters of disrespect from the front office and will not recommend this school to anyone. She sent the driver to the wrong address! then my appointment was rescheduled twice after that! I will not be returning to this school for lessons.
Update: I was promised a tour of the office, and promised free 2hour lessons by the owner after the multiple incidents that occurred and still no phone call weeks later…

I had an on the road driving lesson with Dexterity. My driving instructor was impolite and insulting, impatient, unable to explain anything clearly, played on his phone and was very difficult to understand. Dexterity clearly hires incompetent people who have no business being driving instructors. A complete waste of time and money.
When I complained about the horrible experience I had via email, I recieved no reply.

I drove with Idriss to learn how to park. It was very helpful for new driver like me. The instructor was friendly and able to help me to response to different real life driving situations.

If I could give 0 stars, I definitely would. This is an extremely unprofessional driving school.
On the appointment that I had already been asked to reschedule 4 times, the instructor calls me 7 minutes before my appointment and says he’s going to be 20 minutes late. When he doesn’t show up 45 minutes later, I call him and cancel my trip. Im going to call the office tomorrow morning to demand a refund.
Before that, an appointment has been cancelled on me less than 30 minutes before the time it was scheduled be.
Overall– it’s just been a horrible and unprofessional experience, and the quality of the cars are dangerously bad.

Excellent staff! I would totally recommend if you need to take driving classes! They will help you prepare for your road exam, highway and city driving and parallel parking. They also have defensive driving lessons. So I recommend this driving school to anyone who needs driving lessons!

I had a good experience here. I was picked up from my home, taught some skills for two hours, and used said skills to pass my road test the same day. They’re very supportive and patient. I can’t remember my teacher’s name but it started with an A and he was handsome. I used their car for the test. They even called after I passed the test and congratulated me.

I’d give it zero stars if I could. Be warned, this «driving school» is a total scam if you need it for just a road test in DC. Their own instructors leave Unilocal reviews to boost their rating. I paid $ 160 and no, I am not just a disgruntled tester who failed her road test. I so happen to know a friend who coincidentally, unbeknownst to me at the time, took his road test the same day as me by the same instructor, Jules, who failed us both after telling us we were good drivers and wanted us to go back for a re-​do that he would give us «half price» on, after wrongfully failing us for stupid made up reasons and lies. Its the perfect scam, had I not known this happened to my friend, I would have actually been gullible enough tot believe the bullshit reasons for me getting failed, (after having been driving for over a year).
Staff at Dexterity actually began harassing me after I posted this Unilocal review, and calling my phone to threaten and intimidate me into taking down my review. (which is absolutely against Unilocal rules and is completely unprofessional) I ended up having to block them from my number because the harassment would not end for hours and his bullshit staff yelling at ME as if I was the one who scammed THEM!
They are crazy. Jean, the shitty manager, after scamming my friend when he went for a re-​do, actually admitted to my friend to scamming people and laughing at them after failing them for bullshit made up reasons f with their literal partners in crime, which are the pother driving schools listed under the DMV website is you are in a time crunch to get your license and cannot wait on the DMVs road test schedule, and BEGGED my friend not to say anything to anyone. Don’t use this driving school for your road test, if you do not want to get scammed, just wait for the regular DMV people to road test you. Jules, one of the scammer instructors fed us the same lines on our individual road tests, like a script and had the audacity to laugh when we called him out on his bullshit scam the next time we went for a real road test with the DMV and crossed paths again, unfortunately. Fuck you all @ Dexterity Driving. If you’d like more details, please inbox me. Don’t go here. (No offense) but no wonder people from the DMV don’t trust Africans, people like you and your stupid ass driving school perpetuate stereotypes about scamming, by actually being the assholes fitting the stereotype down to a T.

A total scam! The instructor was rude and unprofessional. As soon as I got to the DMV in Rhode Island, he only interest was in payment and seemed disappointed that I had a license in NYC previously. He joked with a buddy about passing people on the first attempt.
I was told to wait for my number to be called, but then the Dexterity instructor disappeared into the back and returned saying it was my turn and there was a woman from the DMV joining us. One of the other woman behind the desk also left and she turned up in her car facing the Dexterity car I was to drive.
The instructor told me to get into the car and start the engine. I got into the car and started adjusting the seat and mirrors to my height and view, put on the seat belt then switched on the engine. He seemed disturbed and said I told you to turn the engine on (I would have failed instantly if I had).
Then the DMV person who was in her car was stopped in the middle of the parking lot facing the car I was in. He told me to move when I secured my way. I waited for her, indicated to her that she could go ahead and I would wait and she refused to move (parked in the middle of the parking close to the parking spot I would come out of). I signaled waited and she didn’t move. I started to come out and he pulled on the emergency break and told me I was a dangerous driver because I had not seen the car in front of me. I told him I had and that I had signaled for her. He said you are dangerous, you have to reschedule, I can t let you go today.
A complete scam. He was rude, unprofessional, and clearly more interested in rescheduling then testing me. I never left my parking spot.
I have been driving for 20 years and never gotten a parking ticket.
I was not comfortable with a private company testing me, but it is DC DMV certified. In fact. the head of the NE DMV called and recommended them!
They are using this certification to push customers around. This can’t last long, people aren’t going to pay $ 140 to Dexterity for repeated road tests (especially when they are conducted in this manner). People can fail tests, but this was a total setup! Shame on Dexterity and the DMV should do better.
I paid to use a Dexterity car to make sure it was secure and qualified for the road test and yet the instructor made me test the brakes and the signals while I was parked to see if the car was safe!!! It’s not my car.
