Helms Driving School, LLC. Coliseum Drive, Charlotte

I can tell you that it seems most people only tend to do negative reviews these days. But I want to let everyone know that under the new ownership of Helms Driving School, Chrystal Helms has been nothing short of great. Our daughter was able to take the class online, do her eye check and six hours behind the wheel an efficient and reasonable amount of time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Full service driving school. Responsive, easy to communicate, friendly and accommodating. Will definitely use again for our next child!

Two of my children have taken the driving course through Helms. It was a great experience for both, they learned a lot and have proven to be very safe young drivers. They were very flexible in scheduling the driving segments of the course and I never felt uneasy with my children in the car with them. The instructors at Helms are highly trained and very professional while also making the class fun for the young students.

Helms were super helpful guiding us through the teen driver process. Highly recommend their services. An absolute pleasure to work with

Great instructors! Great school! Top of the line! Felt comfortable sending my kid to drive with them.

Our two kids both attended Helms Driving School for the classroom and behind the wheel hours. Our experience was so great in 2021 even despite Covid, so we returned this month for our youngest child. Helms exceeded our expectations the second time even! The team and Chrystal always responded quickly to my phone calls and emails. I Registering is a breeze. The communication for the classroom portion was timely and precise. Helms was able and happy to meet a special request for timing for the behind...
Read full review the wheel hours since we had a family vacation planned right in the middle of when our child needed to have the hours completed. Pete, the driving instructor, has 30 years experience and made the teen feel so comfortable with getting on the road. I would highly recommend Helms Driving!

Great experience! Crystal was amazing in setting up the class and our driving session! She was quick to respond with any of our questions!!

Helms Driving School was a wonderful experience for my 14.5 year old ! The instructors were patient and thorough teaching my son available driving skills . They even picked him up at his school in order for him to finish his driving hours before his DMV appointment . I highly recommend Helms !

Helms Driving School is top notch! Chrystal Helms, the owner, was so easy to work with to arrange the trainings and a great communicator for all zoom and behind the wheel sessions. She already knew all the various school schedules so helped navigate good times for our daughter to do the online classroom and the behind the wheel sessions. The 30 hours of online zoom teenage trainings were so thorough and helped my daughter learn so much about how to prepare for driving and understand all...
Read full review of the rules and situations associated with driving. My daughter was definitely engaged during the zoom sessions, with appropriate break times built in. She felt well prepared for the test and received a high grade! The behind the wheel sessions were fantastic! The instructors were on time, personable, helped my daughter feel confident while driving and not nervous! Each time my daughter came home from a driving session she was smiling and happy and really really enjoyed the instructions and their way of teaching her. I could go on and on about what a great experience this has been! Thanks so much for Chrystal for running an outstanding driving school! Additional review 9 months later ~ my daughter was ready to do her Drivers Test and we hired Helms Driving School again for 4 more hours of behind the wheel. Pete was our guy and those two sessions were perfect. He is personable, timely, thoughtful, gives constructive feedback in the perfect tone to help your teen make the right decisions. My daughter was confident and ready to take the exam today. He has a great demeanor and helps encourage her while teaching her the right way to drive. 3 point turns, parking, backing in a straight line, switching lanes, etc etc. She passed on her first try today and we couldnt be more thrilled. I highly recommend Helms Driving School! Thanks for making our daughters experience a great one.

We had a great experience at Helms Driving School from start to finish! Scheduling was efficient, classroom instruction was successful and Mr. Pete was the perfect instructor for driving around Charlotte! Thank you!
