I attended 160 Driving academy at the Freehold, NJ - Brookdale College location. First, I’m a female student and felt I was treated fairly and equally to my male counterparts. The instructors taught me everything I needed to know to feel prepared and pass my road test, which I did one and done. Instructor Joe was fun and approachable. He talked about real life experiences and was the perfect person for a laugh when you were having an off or stressful day. Instructor Barry was more direct and to the point. But he made sure we had all the tools, materials, and resources to pass our pre trip/in cab and manuevers for the test. The day of the test Instructor Mark met me at the test site and thoroughly explained what I should expect from the examiner which put me at ease. I spent most of my time there working with Instructor Arthur. To my understanding he manages the office, onboards new students, plans out the day etc. but because they were down an instructor he spent the majority of his time hands on in the yard with the students. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. He was extremely patient, he went through each manuever with me step by step, he made us aware of our mistakes but applauded us when we did well. Even when he was in the office doing office work he was still watching us in the yard and providing us with direction through walkie talkies. He asked for student feedback, addressed concerns, and implemented next day changes. He even arranged for me to test in the truck I requested and felt most comfortable in. He was just an amazing instructor all across the board. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking to attend a truck driving school! Chelsea M.
