Matt is friendly, professional, and an exceptional instructor! I recommend Matt and Northland Driving School to anyone seeking top-tier instruction.

I used them for my older son and it worked great (2022ish). We purchased six hours of driving lessons for my younger son and completed four. We scheduled our final driving lesson for 415 on Sunday afternoon. It was rescheduled for 8am on Sunday with no advance coordination. When I reached out and told them it wouldn’t work, they rescheduled for Saturday morning (fine). He showed up at our house 30mins early (again fine) but then my son was home 15 mins after he left. Apparently the guy was ranting about an app that was not allowed just after leaving the house. My son had no idea what he was talking about but followed instructions and drove home without completing the lesson. It was very odd. Unfortunately I had already left expecting my child home two hours later, not 15mins. Don’t waste your money.

Don't waste your time or money. Matt continually cancelled our scheduled appointments for our daughter.

We purchased the 6-lesson package for our son. Of the 5 lessons we scheduled, 4 lessons were canceled by the business. Two were "weather-related", although the roads were clear by the time of the second cancellation. Communication was poor, multiple emails went unanswered, and last-minute rescheduling around school and work was very difficult. Because of this, I requested a refund for the unused 5 lessons. From the original $455 paid, a $113 “processing” fee was deducted and then $230 was withheld (their single-lesson price?), resulting in a refund of $111. Being charged that much after most lessons were canceled BY THE BUSINESS did not feel reasonable or fair. Unfortunately, recent reviews reflect similar experiences. Sharing so other parents can make an informed decision.

I dont even believe this place is real. I'm starting to believe this was all a scam. I signed my daughter up for driving classes Dec 7th. It was canceled. So I rescheduled her again for early this month. Canceled again. Keep in mind the dates for rescheduling are about a month out. I'm not going to reschedule again because something is odd at this point. The phone number disappeared off the website. So you can not call a real person. You have to email. And I went by the address on the website and it's a multi unit building , I saw no cars. I'm annoyed at this point and I emailed asking for a refund. I have not received a refund yet. I understand unexpected things happen. Just give me my money back so I can move on. Im probably going to have to take this place to court. I would not recommend anyone giving this place your money. Your kid will never get a driving lesson and you will go through mud to get refunded.

We booked Matthew for 6 hours of driving lessons and only completed 2. The first session was rescheduled and ended 15–20 minutes early. The second session was constantly pushed back until I finally had to request a refund. Our time is valuable, and the constant rescheduling was unprofessional and inconvenient. If he wasn’t in a position to commit to lessons, that should’ve been communicated upfront instead of taking payment and wasting our time. He did refund the remaining 4 hours, but the experience overall was disappointing.
