Pkg HELP note to PARENTS: Don't feel like driving with your young adult? Dreading working with them on their required 50 hours? Let us drive with them for you! These 50 hours are session hours as if you were taking your young adult out driving inbetween our lessons. Session hours cover the techniques your young adult took in a lesson(s).This is Pkg HELP, 50 session hours-You NEVER have to take your young adult out practice driving, EVER! One LESSON must be taken first before 50 hours session hours in PKG HELP can start. The HELP session hours do not count toward the 6 hour hours of behind the wheel hours required for teens to obtain a btw certificate. BTW Certificate hours are lesson hours only. So in order for a teen to obtain a behind the wheel certificate, three Pkg As or one Pkg C needs to be taken.

Please feel free to go to our Yelp page to read more about what others thought about ARS Driving School. We have featured a few below.
I asked for Anika based on yelp reviews. She was very professional and knowledgeable. She followed up each lesson with an evaluation and suggested exercises to improve driving. She was flexible and worked with my 17 year old's school schedule. I would highly recommend her. BTW, my daughter was very comfortable with Ms. Anika and passed the first driving test she took at the DMV.

A great exciting experience for my daughter...she was very excited and texted me once the 1st instruction was complete and said she feels so much more comfortable. Her instructor was Anika and my daughter says she was cool! Thank You Anika and ARS for a great experience.

I found this ARS driving school on yelp. Anika is awesome. I have a big smile today after I pass my driving from DMV thanks for Anika and the ARS driving school.
