Learn to drive with confidence in Stanford! Our DMV-licensed instructors provide professional behind-the-wheel lessons designed for students, residents, and commuters navigating the unique mix of university traffic, bicycles, pedestrians, and busy roadways around Stanford University.
Our behind-the-wheel training is tailored to the Stanford environment. Students practice safe lane changes, smooth turning, speed control, defensive driving, and parking techniques on and around the Stanford campus — including areas with heavy bike traffic, roundabouts, and pedestrian zones.
We provide in-depth DMV test prep to help students feel confident on test day. Lessons include practice on local test-style routes, mock exams, examiner-style scoring, and coaching on parallel parking, right-of-way, and hazard awareness.
Not sure where you stand? Our skills assessment highlights what you’re doing well and identifies areas for improvement. We coach you through turning precision, lane discipline, freeway readiness, and handling busy intersections commonly found around Stanford.

Nathan Kim was the instructor for my son for his 2nd and 3rd driving lesson. My son felt he was a very patient, helpful and helped him gain the confidence and skills that he needed to develop as he learned how to drive. As a parent, I appreciated how he always followed up afterwards with things to work on and provided a lot of tips for him. He passed his test with only a 2 point deduction (out of 15 allowable) so Nathan clearly did his part to prepare him!
We had a fabulous experience with Advantage Driving School! I found it easy to contact them, register and they were responsive and helpful. Instructor Beth was amazing! I highly recommend her! Very personable, helpful and invested in my daughter’s progress. Thank you!
My son Sammy had Mr. Todd Mesa as his instructor for 3 lessons. He passed his DMV driving test on his first try with very few mistakes. Todd was very positive, friendly and professional.
Staff and instructors were helpful and professional, 16 year old developed driving confidence and was well-prepared for behind-the-wheel test.
I had a great experience with my instructor Nathan! I was honestly scared of driving for years, but he made me feel so comfortable right from the start. He’s super patient, easy to talk to, and always gives helpful tips that actually make a difference. Thanks to him, I passed my driving test on the first try! I highly recommend taking lessons with him!
So I had my driving test at the Santa Clara dmv and prepared with a lesson from Beth. She was absolutely incredible and took me through so many paths in the area, one of which I ended up actually taking, leading me to pass my first try there with only 2 mistakes. Thank you Beth!
