Don't go here. Whatever you think, it's worse. For reference, I am speaking regarding the Inwood…read morelocation.
Along with the impossible scheduling system that other comments mention, the facilities and instructors are terrible. To be frank, beyond the broken ceiling tiles and dirty walls and surfaces, the building has a certain odor to it.. making any kind of learning difficult. It's depressing for such a prime piece of real estate in the DFW area- you step into a broken, dirty vending machine and a cracked ceiling upon entering the facility. And the very instructors continue this theme- during my time there I tried multiple instructors, all of which were geriatric, sickly, and condescending.
I started their lessons when I was freshly 16, a fact of which I was constantly criticized for by the staff who acted like I was too old for this. I'd practiced driving with my parents for several months by that point, but they liked the convenience All Star claimed to offer due to their demanding jobs. I'd had a permit for a year, and had completed the entirety of the education program before even starting All Star. I am a top student at my high school, and very obedient to the adults within my life. So that is all to say, I am a very easy client to work with.
And yet, upon my first lesson, I was met with belittlement and verbal abuse, for offensives as simple as politely asking how to move the seat within the instructor's car. Despite this being 2024, I was forced to wear a mask and gloves during my lesson and have my temperature taken. I really wasn't comfortable with this, and did not consent- although I am glad to help keep an immune compromised instructor safe, I really don't see why this elderly gentleman was working a job such as this in the first place. Moreover, he was wearing a very political shirt which also made the entire situation... awkward. Throughout the lesson, he berated me and called me stupid. Asked if I needed medication or was slow. Constantly grabbed the wheel from the passenger seat (which is more dangerous than just letting me do it) and made fun of me. Mind you, I was completely comfortable with my driving before this lesson, and much of what he was yelling at me for was not following his specific technique... which, he didn't teach me. I was pushed to the verge of tears, and sobbed on my way out.
But I assumed maybe it was just an instructor problem. As I tried others, it clearly was not. Every. Single. One. Of those instructors treated me like I was stupid, and a worthless ditz. These old men seemingly judged me on my gender alone, with one even mentioning to me how he "hated having a daughter." I was never treated as though I was capable of learning, or competent. Never taught, always condescendingly told something was wrong with me. The wheel was grabbed constantly when I was doing perfectly fine (by other adults measures), and many of my lessons ended in tears. That's not even to mention the extra charges placed on my family and I for "contractual issues" (aka not finishing it over the summer due to their scheduling system of a 5 minute window) and issues regarding their administration of the test, which other reviews have gone in depth into.
