Sets the standard
Was a great experience with some of the best instructors in Illinois. Starting in the classroom with professor Jerry who’s very explicit and has great teaching ability. When you get to the yard instructor Pedro and Chris made learning the truck so easy and will teach you everything you need to know to pass the test. Overall you will feel very satisfied choosing Alpha.
