Cindy Cohen School of driving was a worthwhile experience for my daughter. She felt more confident driving and prepared for her driving exam. She passed on her first try. Lenny, her instructor, was very professional and patient. He arrived promptly for each lesson and took the time to explain procedures and functions. She felt comfortable with Lenny. Thanks a bunch! Money well spent!

Highly recommend to anyone that is on the fence about utilizing a driving school. The owner is extremely professional and immediately put me at ease. I was especially nervous about parallel parking and merging, but Cindy helped to conquer my fears! Passed my test on the first time!

When I tell you that Cindy Cohen Driving School is the best, please believe me!!! I went for a drivers test at the Penn Hills Penndot and I was so nervous because of the bad experiences I heard my friends had there. Audrey was my driving school instructor and she is literally an Angel! She was so patient with me and assured me that I was going to do well on the exam! I passed on my first try! So thank you to Audrey, Lenny, all the other wonderful instructors and Cindy for helping uneasy students like myself! Much love to all of you!! ❤️
Thanks Natori for a wonderful review. I enjoyed working with you as well.

In my late 20s and was struggling with getting my license. I had three different instructors, all three worth their salt.
Audrey helped me get familiar with vehicle control after 4 years.
Fred helped polished my driving and gave me all kinds of resources like the Smith driving system, and recovering from mistakes.
Roger coached me on my high speed driving control and was there for my road test.
All great instructors, all highly recommended!!
Thanks CJ for a wonderful review. I enjoyed working with you as well.

Love this school.
I always said "if I can do it, anyone can!"
I was very inexperienced and extremely nervous driver. I called Cindy Cohen and I took classes with Tim. He is patient, and his heart on it. I learnt a lot from him, he put my mind at ease and thought me not simply how to get ready for the test but also how to apply what I learn in my everyday life and be a safe driver. My overall experience with the place was very positive
Thanks for the great review. Be safe! Cindy Cohen

My experience with Cindy Cohen School of Driving was excellent! It was worth every penny! I took 6 total lessons with Frederick Fenner (Freddie) and he was fantastic. I was really anxious about driving and really tense, but Freddie continuously talked me through every step and assured me he would allow me to make small mistakes so that I could learn from them and that he would point them out and correct me but that he would never let me endanger either of us. He explained things that no one else that had tried to teach me had explained and each lesson had a goal and showed me something new to master! I took the lessons because I was desperate to get my license in a timely manner and had a very busy work schedule and they did everything they could to work with my schedule. I took my road test within the time frame I wanted and I passed on the first time! I highly recommend the driving school and I highly recommend Freddie.
Thanks for the great review. Be safe! Cindy Cohen

I took my lessons & my test with CIndy Cohen School of Driving, & I was very pleased with the service. I passed first time! I took lessons with Lenny, who always gave great & beneficial feed back that helped me become a much more confident driver. Thank you Lenny. When it came time to take my test, Lenny was not available and I got to take my test with CINDY! I told her going into it that I was really having doubts about my parallel parking, and her goal before my test was to get me where I needed to be. She succeeded! As an adult going into this, my anxiety was very high and I put a lot of pressure on myself. Cindy understood, and she truly did help and encourage me to realize that I had this!
I admire and completely respect her and her business structure. I would highly recommend Cindy Cohen Driving School for any new driver. They will get you that confidence and peace of mind you need when taking off on this new journey! Thank you again, Lenny and Cindy!
Thanks Jess for the great review. Sincerely, Cindy Cohen

After 3 lessons with Fred from Cindy's school, I feel much more comfortable with being in the car with my daughter. I am looking forward to more driving lessons so she can be a more proficient driver. I definitely would recommend this school.

I highly recommend using Cindy Cohen School of Driving for your young new drivers. Freddy was my daughter Lauren's instructor and was excellent. Very patient and professional. He helped her pass her driving test the very first time and we even had her keep taking some lessons after she passed. Just for additional on the road experience. Ask for Fred as the instructor.
I appreciate the nice review. Thanks

Thanks to my instructor, Clayton, I cleared my driving test at the first attempt. Clayton was really thorough and patient. He was on-time for the appointments. Although I have driven before, he taught me the finer points that really helped me pass the test. It was easy to fix an appointment and the school even sent me reminders to confirm my appointment ahead of time. Overall a very professional school and well worth the money.
Thanks for taking your time to write a wonderful review. Sincerely, Cindy Cohen www.drivingbuythebest.com

Cindy's school of driving is definitely worth it. Her crew showed me a whole lot when I first started back in 2014 and I gotta say it was great experience and a great pleasure to meet the people that worked with me. Like I said she's the one to go to. If anyone looking to learn she's the one.....
Thanks for the great review. I am glad you are doing well. Sincerely, Cindy Cohen Pittsburgh Driving Lessons
