“In 2012 I attended Santo’s Driving School. I received the education and skills required to become a safe and responsible member of the driving community. During my on-road driving lessons I was constantly encouraged and felt very comfortable.

The classes at Santo’s are fun and informative. Dave is a great teacher in the classroom and on the road. I will recommend this school to all my friends

Jacob D. - Cromwell, CT

I was very nervous to learn how to drive. Starting with the pleasant and friendly office staff I was reassured I made the right decision to go to Santo’s. I overcame my fear of driving with the help of two wonderful instructors Mr. John and Mr. Ray. They were both patient and eased my fear of driving. I am happy to say I’ve had my license for over a year now and would recommend this school to all my family and friends
