We consider him an excellent instructor, and we are very grateful. I wholeheartedly recommend him as a driving instructor. He is punctual, and there is good communication in case the time or day of the practice needs to be changed. Thank you Sam.

Sam did an outstanding job teaching my daughter how to drive. From day one, he built confidence and…read moremade her feel comfortable behind the wheel. He even got her on the freeway during the first lesson, which says a lot about how quickly he creates a calm and supportive environment. He explains things clearly, stays patient, and knows how to adjust his approach based on the student. My daughter felt at ease the entire time and came away more confident after each session. If you want an instructor who is professional, encouraging, and focused on real progress, Sam is a great choice.

So, when the time came to schedule my 17-year-old, it was easy peasy and stress-free. I really appreciated how flexible they were with scheduling, too.

I couldn't recommend them enough!

I feel that it is important to notify your customers about refund policies from the initial start…read morenot after purchase. I had called today asking to get a refund for a class and the first person I spoke to, told me he wasn't sure they issued refunds and that it wasn't something that they bring up. Which was surprising. It is a customers right to know about these things as it helps guarantee them further reassurance in their purchase. That is when he told me to wait and I was transferred to a woman whom ended up issuing me my refund but had told me that they would deduct a $15 processing fee. I know other driving schools do not implement this method and would surely give you the full amount back. Please be warned ahead of time before purchasing a session with them, I would hate to imagine someone else going through the same thing. I do appreciate that It was done quickly but for future purposes it be best to notify the customer at the time of purchase. To avoid situations like these.

The online course is only barely sufficient. If they told you up front that they didn't cover…read moreeverything you needed in order to pass the written test, that would be one thing, but they don't. If you choose to pay for this anyway (the price is much less than other courses), MAKE SURE YOU READ THE DMV BOOK AS WELL, OR YOU WILL FAIL THE WRITTEN TEST. The behind-the-wheel portion of the course is a nightmare. It is not possible to book more than two sessions at a time. The MINIMUM wait for a session is three weeks. This means that you will be taking a minimum of about five months to complete the six courses needed to get a license. They don't seem the least bit concerned about cancelling a session very late in the game, but if you need to for any reason, (a) you've set yourself back another month, and (b) if you don't cancel early enough, it'll cost you another $60. On its face, this looks like a good deal. It is not. Don't waste your time and money. Go elsewhere.

I echo those reviews below. I think AAA offers great services in most instances but their driving…read moreschool is not one of them. I signed my daughter up for 10 lessons in late September shortly after she received her driving permit. The first available lesson wasn't for 5 weeks so that put us in early November. I was only able to schedule 2 lessons and you have a mandated 2 week gap in between for practice (which I understand) but once she completed her first lesson it took about a day to allow me to schedule her 3rd appointment and the first available was a month later. From start to finish, I estimated that it would take 10 months to complete the lessons. The AAA rep I spoke with to cancel was very helpful but it seems that AAA management is aware of these issues and from the length of time people have provided feedback on this, not much is being done.

The second lesson she decided she needed a break and had to use the bathroom and made my son pull over for 15min, ok human nature she had to go to the bathroom,sure free pass this time. Now today his third lesson. I was tracking him on Life 360 and they drove straight to McDonald on Valencia and sat for a whole 30min. Then he drove back home. I asked my son why were they at McDonald for so long and he said she made him go into the McDonald with her to get a drink and do paperwork um excuse me that is not what I'm paying you for. On top of that she did not explain or correct his turn instead she would grab the wheel. When I confronted her and asked her about the McDonald visit and 30 min break she stated we had to do paperwork. I feel like my son got cheated from driving and she definitely took my money. She refused to give him his certificate unless I paid for the last lesson. I reluctantly paid her so my son can get his drivers license but I definitely definitely would not use her. Pay the extra and go somewhere else. She is the only employee and does not have open hours, after the first lesson she informed me that she does not do afternoons, evenings or freeways. Unfortunately it was too late to change driving school, trust me I called and tried but because she already signed his permit I had to continue with her. I feel like we got cheated and my son still needs so much correction. She told my son when turning you shuffle the wheel do not do hand over hand ‍ Take your chance if you wish but you will be highly disappointed.
