Mi madre, una señora mayor, tomó clases con ellos y lo pasó mal. Dijo que el instructor no le hablaba de forma profesional, hablaba fuerte/gritaba, poniendole muy nerviosa, un dia no le comunicaron que el instructor no podia llegar y le mintieron que le estuvo llamando cuando no recibió ninguna llamada; llegó hasta la oficina y tuvo que regresarse. Poco profesionalismo. Ella tomó dos clases con otra escuela despues de desaprobar con Barrios, y no podia creer lo bien que le hablaban, la calma y paciencia que tenian y lo segura que se terminó sintiendo. En fin, no lo recomiendo.

Barrios is the way to go !! I applied back in December but I recommend planning ahead because due to Covid-19 the spots do fill up quickly. My instructor was Jeffrey super helpful and explains stuff throughly. Jackie provides great customer service she will help you schedule classes as best as she can to fit your schedule. Guarantee you will pass your road test! . 10/10!

So I m writing this review around 4 years late. My experience here was not great. Truth be told, it was a waste of money (hard earned money since I was a fresh out of college student working restaurant jobs at the time). All we did was drive around the neighborhood. The instructor was not super attentive and gave minor pointers. He could use some coaching on how to be a teacher. But my biggest issue is that we never once went to the site where the road test was going to take place. How absolutely...
ridiculous is that since it was over in Red Hook (not far from sunset to have dedicated one class for it). It was an entirely new route and I ended up failing the road test because that area had confusing road signs. When I got back in the car the instructor did not say A WORD and just left it at that. Also, I am now an amazing driver and my parallel parking skills are on point. The way they reach you how to parallel park is definitely NOT the correct way lol. And he would make you park in the same exact location which did not simulate a real nyc parallel parking space (aka how to fit in a tighter space). Anyway, my friend is the one who ended up teaching me how to drive. I regret not asking her first. I passed my road test on the 2nd try just after practicing a month with my friend and finally getting comfortable behind the wheel.

Highly Recommended! Already in possession of a foreign drivers license, I did a few lessons to get accustomed to NYC driving, and received valuable help for navigating the DMV procedures as well as acing the final road test. Both front desk staff and Mr.Barrios were extremely helpful, friendly and professional. Great service and great people, thank you!

They were great Mr Jeffrey was very patient and polite. I always appreciated them being flexible with scheduling. Ms Jackie as well was amazing always sweet and helpful. Their prices are great as well! They give you the option of taking your road test in red hook or Staten Island which is definitely great! Took 10 lessons and I took my road test today and I ve passed!

I would recommend this school to anyone, regardless if you live in the Sunset Park area or not. Jeff Barrios and his sister Jackie really have your best interest at heart and will motivate you to pass the test! Of course, you have to put in the work as well but it is very comforting knowing that those who are helping you achieve your goal are willing to go above and beyond what is typically expected from a driving school. For example, I failed the first road test (because I let my nerves...
get the best of me and needed more practice with parallel parking) and Jackie knew my Learners permit was set to expire on my birthday and coordinated to ensure I was scheduled for another driving lesson and could retake the road test a few days later prior to the Learners Permit expiration date. And yes, I passed the 2nd time! :) This meant so much to me and I am truly grateful that I chose this driving school. Additionally, its always nice to have a driving instructor (Jeff Barrios) who is very personable and encouraging. His jokes and riddles are hilarious!!

Barrios is the top 1 driving school. Their customer service is great. Ms.Jackie is very welcoming and tries to help you schedule classes as best as she can. I recommend planning ahead because due to Covid-19 the spots are filling up quickly. They have a new instructor Isaac (which was my instructor) he s great! Very patient and laid back. He explains things thoroughly. Guarantee you will pass your road test! Jeffery & Issac are great instructors. 10/10!

Barrios school is professional, polite, warm and welcoming. I didn t think I was going to be able to pass my drivers test, but they taught me all of the ins and outs of what to expect on exam day and how to pass successfully. They have the knowledge you need. Please, don t take the test cold turkey. Their staff is also bilingual and super friendly.

This review is long, long overdue. I remembered to do it today as I was weaving through heavy traffic in Queens today. After having a terrible experience with Super Starz driving school I looked for other options - Barrios Driving school was Godsend. Jackie and her brother Jeffrey are amazing. They are honest, so helpful and truly care to offer the best service possible. This family ran business will support you on the journey of being an NYC driver. Jeffrey couldn t have been more patient and helped...
me regain my confidence behind the wheel after having failed on my first try. Five lessons with Barrios and I passed on the second try! I must also mention the nice gesture from Jackie to call me up herself to give me the good news. So glad I came here. THANK YOU THANK YOU
