This in and of itself is not a reason for a bad review and I wish him the best of health, however the situation was handled poorly. My lessons ended up being delayed by 2 months because Joseph caught COVID. The 45 minute lesson that comes with Package 2 is not actually a full 45 minute lesson but just you driving to the test site and when you get there going over Parallel Parking and the 3 Point Turn twice (10 minutes) then heading over to get in line for the test. I believe another reviewer had this complaint as well. He will take up a good portion of the lesson with small talk instead of teaching you. He did not teach me Parallel Parking nor the 3 Point Turn til my last lesson so I ended up having to purchase more lessons and of course even with t hat I failed my Road Test. You will spend the majority of the 90 minute lessons driving in a straight line. He does not adequately prepare you for the Road Test. Below are the reasons for this 1 star review: 1. I purchased Package 2 for $400 back in March starting lessons right away and an additional $270 worth of lessons in April.

I had a pretty awful experience with Joseph. Thank you so much for your assistance!:) … – show Kudos to them both for working through a pandemic and a very busy summer season. I thank him for all of his help, I couldn't have obtained my driver's license without him! Also, shout out to Julie for being so kind over the phone and for being super flexible with my schedule. This included parallel parking, broken U turns, changing lanes, signaling correctly, how to appropriately stop at ALL WAY stop signs, and regular stop signs, and more. He was very tran sparent with me regarding my areas of focus and he took multiple classes teaching me the tips and tricks on how to do well on the road test. Well 1.5 months later and I passed my road test! Joseph was very very punctual, patient, professional, kind, caring, super friendly, and always made me feel like my safety was the top priority while driving. Luckily, a friend of mine, who procured services at Golden Star previously, shared with me that she had a great experience and recommended that I reach out so I did. I am in my early 30's and was never taught to drive previously so I needed all the help that I could get.
