Interview with Paul Rios
Q: What made you choose Trainco Truck Driving Schools in the first place?
A: I have a cousin who attended the program earlier. He highly recommended Trainco and said it may be something that I would also be interested in.
Q: Is your cousin doing anything with the CDL that he received through Trainco?
A: Yes, he has his own business now. He has nine trucks and it all started here at Trainco.
Q: How were the instructors during the course?
A: Very patient, very thorough. I was very happy with the instructors! If we had any questions whatsoever, they had no problems answering them.
Q: So, throughout all three phases (the classroom, the range, and the open road time), that all went well for you?
A: Absolutely, 100% happy. I could not be any happier than I am!
Q: How do you feel about the fact that Trainco actually makes you get your permit before you come to school?
A: I think it’s a good idea … it starts you off being prepared. That’s a big focus here - being prepared. I also like that you focus in on safety. Driving those big trucks … it’s a very big part.
Q: You seem pleased, Paul. Is this a program that you would recommend to other people?
A: Absolutely! I have in mind for my 19-year-old son to come to Trainco!
Interview with Preston Lucas
Q: What was the best part of coming to Trainco?
A: The instructors are very helpful. They work with you, they constantly encourage you, they never put you down, they never make you feel like you’re dumb. They know this is all new to you and they constantly work with you till they know you have everything down pat.
Q: How did you feel about the instructors and staff at Trainco?
A: They always had a smile for you … they always encouraged you! If you had a bad day, they made you feel better. I think my first time driving I felt like crap - I felt like I was never going to learn. I talked to instructor Mike after class about my first time for doing a parallel park and he said, “Don’t try to be perfect.” From that point on, I starting getting it together. You’ve got to be here every day, though: be willing to learn, and you have to pay attention!
Q: Would you recommend Trainco to someone else?
A: I would recommend Trainco to all my friends. I have a buddy down in North Carolina trying to get his CDL, so I told him to come up to and go to Trainco. Everybody I talk to, I tell, “Trainco is the best!” |
