Reviews of Matsuki Driving School Niigata Nishi Shibata School

I stayed here for just under two weeks during my automatic vehicle driver's license Driving Camp.
I would like to thank all the teachers for their help. The staff at ID Center also treated me with kindness.

Pros:
・Good value for money
・The food at N Village is delicious
・A place where you can relax and enjoy the countryside
The classes are very easy to understand
- You can access the written test challenge content at any time from the website, which is extremely useful for studying before getting your full driver's license.
- Conveniently located near Aeon, Uniqlo, Lawson, etc.

I went to a Driving Camp with an AT limited license for 2 weeks! At first, I was nervous and nervous, but I soon made friends, and the teachers at the driving Driving School were really kind, so I looked forward to driving every time. It depends on the teacher, but there are teachers who talk a lot, and it's motivating! Thank you very much for taking me to the final pass. The nature of Niigata really soothes the soul. In the end, I enjoyed this Driving Camp so much that I didn't want to leave Niigata. I would love to hear from you again! I saw some harsh comments, but I don't think there was a teacher that bad even when I asked other friends. . I especially felt that Hayami Sensei, Sugawara Sensei, and Okura Sensei were wonderful! It was a really fun two weeks! Thank you teachers! I love it!

If you get a chance to meet Yokoyama Sensei in Manual, you're in luck. He will thoroughly teach you the secrets of half-clutch and intermittent clutch, which are the most important in Manual operation. I think your driving skills will be significantly different depending on whether or not you receive instruction from him.
We got along well and he shared some very useful information with me, including the right mindset for driving, his opinions on the current state of roads and pedestrians, and how to communicate with manual transmission cars.
As other reviews have said, there are certainly some terrible teachers. I am the type of person who can tolerate it, and the majority of teachers are kind and polite. However, among them, Yokoyama Sensei helped me a lot. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to him.

May 2022 Motorcycle Driving Camp Graduates
One of the instructors was Mr. Igarashi, who had very high level motorcycle skills and was very helpful. The other instructors also gave detailed explanations which was very helpful.
This time, Driving Camp was held at a nearby dedicated Accommodation called N Village, which was built in 2017, so the Bathroom and toilets were clean.
A place I would recommend to friends!
It's also rural in a good way, so it's recommended for city dwellers who want to refresh themselves.

P.S. If it weren't for the coronavirus pandemic, I would have liked to visit Niigata Racecourse...

During my spring break in my second year of university, I went to Automatic Transmission License Driving Camp. It was a big two weeks in my life.
I was taught by about 20 teachers. There are differences in compatibility and each teacher has their own way of conveying things, so some teachers were strict and scary, but I don't think any of them said anything wrong. I was sometimes depressed after receiving harsh criticism, but I realized that driving a car comes with that kind of responsibility.
Since we only had two weeks, there were many assignments and it was not easy. However, through the theory and practical classes, I was able to reflect on my position as a pedestrian and gain awareness and responsibility as a driver.
Administrator of Accommodation was very kind, and the two female teachers who came to inspect the dormitory were also very polite and attentive. Above all, the teachers were friendly with each other, and I think that Atmosphere said it all. These two weeks helped me grow as a person, and in the end, it was such a good school that I didn't want to graduate. Thank you very much.

The facilities of the Accommodation were extremely substantial. This time, I chose a Single room, but it was too big to spend alone. There was a Curfew, but basically you can spend your time freely. I was also happy that an internet connection was available. With the self catering plan, I had to prepare my own lunch except for lunch, but there was a supermarket and a convenience store nearby, so it doesn't matter if I'm not good at self-catering. In fact, I have never cooked for myself. Thanks to the easy-to-understand guidance, I was able to proceed smoothly. I think it was a really good Driving School!

It was my first time to do a driving camp, but I really enjoyed it. I was placed in a twin room dormitory, and I quickly made friends with my roommate. The whole atmosphere of the school is very nice, and the instructors are all very friendly. I was able to concentrate on my lessons thanks to the wonderful environment. If I ever need to get another license, I would like to use the driving camp again.

The only Meals I had was lunch, and I had to cook my own meals the rest of the time, but Accommodation was in a very convenient location so it wasn't a problem at all.
Not only were there convenience stores, but there were also large supermarkets and many restaurants.
The room facilities were also excellent.
At first, the lesson schedule was tough and I felt busy, but as I progressed through the stages, I got used to driving and even began to feel more relaxed.
The instructors are all very kind people.
The staff are very friendly and Atmosphere at the school is great.
I really highly recommend this Driving School.

I was about to get a job, so I needed to get a license as soon as possible. Therefore, I decided to participate in this Driving Camp. I thought it was a driving Driving School with an environment where I could concentrate on my lessons. Not only is the Accommodation clean, but the facilities are good and the location is pretty good. It was a little far from the driving Driving School, but it was still about 5 minutes by bus, so I didn't have any trouble going to Commute Driving School. It's an important lesson, but if you have a precise schedule and follow the lessons, you will be able to graduate without any problems.

Driving School is in a very nice environment and Atmosphere is excellent.
There are several accommodation plans available, and I chose Self cook plan Single room plan.
I have a lot of likes and dislikes, so I wanted to eat what I like for breakfast and dinner.
We had lunch at Driving School, which was also delicious.
Accommodation is an apartment in a very convenient location.
There was a convenience store about a 3-minute walk away, and there was also a large supermarket, so there were plenty of Meals options.
The lessons were a little difficult at first, but once I got used to it, I really enjoyed it.
My instructors were very kind, so I think I was able to have a very good driving experience.
It was a little far from Tokyo, but I didn't mind because I was able to live in such a great environment during the Driving Camp camp.
In fact, I'm dying to come back here again soon.

This may be normal since it's Driving Camp, but there is very little time to spare.
The schedule is packed, so to be honest I felt quite stressed until I got used to this lifestyle.
Even when I finally finish one lesson, it's always hectic because the next one has to start right away.
But the instructors were all very kind and the instruction was easy to understand.
I don't know about other schools, but I thought it might be a high-level driving Driving School.
Accommodation is a normal apartment.
The rooms were not luxurious, but the location was convenient and the living environment was excellent.
I was also happy that there was a convenience store nearby.
Thanks to the very stable living environment, I was able to have a very fulfilling Driving Camp.

The impression is not so bad. The Atmosphere of the driving Driving School was good, and I have no complaints about the Accommodation. The Meals was delicious. There were many instructors, but basically they are all kind. The same is true for the staff. It took about half a month to graduate. I'm glad that I got my driver's license in about two weeks. It seems that it often takes more than twice this amount to Commute Driving School to school, so I'm glad I got a Driving Camp.

I thought it was a Driving School with a very solid living environment. I was imagining a more disappointing Driving Camp, but it was very fun and comfortable. The lessons were sometimes difficult, but the instructor taught me many times in an easy-to-understand manner, so I was able to graduate properly. Of course, I graduated within the period and was able to get a license immediately. There are various Driving Camp options, but I'm really glad I chose this one.

I went by Driving Camp from the middle of February. There was a lot of snow and the sidewalks were covered with snow, making it difficult to walk, but I was able to go comfortably because the Shuttle bus was out. I had an image that the instructor was more scary, but there was also an instructor who talked to me a lot and tried to relieve my tension, and thanks to that, I was able to relax and drive. What I especially liked was the sky. When the snow melted in March, I didn't have the right time for the bus, so I walked to Driving School, and it was very beautiful to see the sunset reflected in the big puddle formed by the melting snow. There were few tall buildings around, so the sky looked very beautiful, and I could see snow-covered mountains in the distance, so I really liked walking in the relaxed atmosphere. There was a convenience store and AEON a few minutes away from Accommodation by walk, and it was very convenient because everything was available. At first, I was worried about staying for two weeks in a place that was just cold and inconvenient, but it was so comfortable that I hardly wanted to leave. I don't know what the environment is like in other license Driving Camp places, but I'm glad I came here.

The only disappointing thing was that the lobby on the first floor was very cold. Even though it was for ventilation purposes due to COVID-19, the air outside was cold and my feet got very cold.
The food in the cafeteria was very delicious and I love eating, so it was fun to be able to try different things every day, but the portions were a little too much for a woman.

I was a little depressed at first because I had so little time, but my instructor was kind and fun, so I was able to enjoy the lesson itself.
Not everything was easy, but in the end I was able to graduate on time, so I was all right.
Accommodation was for women only, so I felt safe and secure there.
This way, even if you are a woman attending alone you can feel at ease and concentrate on your lessons.
The Meals included three meals, which were homemade and very delicious.
After all, delicious Meals makes everyday life more enjoyable!

It was neither good nor bad. In short, it was average. It was my first time to get a license and my first time at Driving School. Some of the instructors were very friendly and kind, but some had a rather strict tone, and some I didn't want to be taught by them again. Anyway, there was a big difference.

I went there for Driving Camp, but if you are staying at Pension Petit Casadera, be careful. Compared to other hotels, it is extremely far away, about a 2-hour walk away, so on days when you have free time, you will be really bored. You will be bored to a level that is not like being bored at home during summer vacation. There is an Aeon near Driving School, but in the summer, it is hot to travel there and you will sweat a lot. And most of all, the Aeon there is a "THE local Aeon" feeling, and there are not many stores, so you will get bored quickly. If you stay here, I recommend studying at Starbucks or cooling off at the food court to kill your free time. By the way, I was really really really bored, so I enjoyed the arcade.

Also, in the initial orientation, I was told, "If you don't study hard, you will fail," which I felt was a bit harsh and threatening. Well, I guess it's a matter of how you interpret it. But there really is a lot to remember, and I think studying is really important, just as they said at that time. They often say that there is a lot of free time at Driving Camp, but I didn't think that at all. I was filled with anxiety because of these words.

I guess every Driving School is like this, but if you're going to a place with a low Review, it might be better to choose this Driving School. Considering the low price, it seems conscientious.
If you are going here for Driving Camp, make sure to study hard when Driving Camp starts. I'm sure you've never been out of your house for two weeks before. It's your first time experiencing something like that, sleeping, eating and living in an unfamiliar place... I'm sure you'll be very tired at the beginning. I recommend that you rest your body well and get enough sleep.

It will be a training life with a tight schedule. However, there is no problem at all because I can graduate earlier by that amount. The Accommodation is an ordinary apartment. It wasn't so bad as it was in the room I usually live in. However, the walls were a little thin and I could hear the sounds of other rooms. But it's not so much that I can't sleep. The instructor wasn't particularly scared, and the Atmosphere of the driving Driving School was good.
