About Our Memphis Driving School

We are the first driving school in the Raleigh-Frayser community! We are a small business making a BIG IMPACT.

Teresa Landrum-Caswell started the process of forming Caswell Group Driving School in 2018 when she realized there was a need for a driving school in her community. Caswell Group Driving School held its first virtual driver improvement class in August 2020 with four participants.

In July 2021, Caswell Group Driving School received approval to be a Driver Training and Testing Program with the State of Tennessee.

2021-2022 Caswell Group Driving School has graduated over 200 students. That is 200 more safe defensive drivers on the road. We have an 80% first time pass rate on the TN Knowledge Test. For students who take this process serious, they will see good results.

Caswell Group Driving School treats every student who crosses their door as family. We have our own style of teaching students to help them retain the information presented in the classroom. We are here to make a difference and we do it with a mindset of excellence and serving.

We know the problems our community encounter, therefore we provide services to help in those areas, such as transportation to the DMV and one on one knowledge test prep if needed. As long as we see the student grinding, we will grind with them. We don't give up on our students. We see them through until the end.

This is a team effort. Meet our team below.

Testimonials

"Very great experience! My daughter was nervous at first. They put her at ease and the rest is history. They even took her to get her permit. Awesome set of people! Very nice and professional! Highly recommend."
-- Angela Bright

"Caswell Driving School is the best driving school in Memphis. The Teachers were very cool people with great personalities in the classroom. They made the environment very fun and easy to be in. Behind the wheel sessions were amazing. The teachers were very calm and trusted the student. They took me on easy routes the first day behind the wheel and made me practice all the basics first. After that we hit the highway and interstate for more practice for the rest of my behind the wheels. I would definitely recommend Caswell Driving to anyone wanting to learn how to drive."
-- Imanni Jackson

I fully recommend them. I'm not the type to leave reviews, but I am a stickler for great customer service. They had impeccable customer service."
