My son took driving lessons here, and his instructor, Johnathon, was fantastic. On the very first…read morelesson, Johnathon came right to our house to pick up my son and had him behind the wheel almost immediately. I'll admit I was a little nervous about how quickly he was put in the driver's seat, but looking back, it really helped him learn quickly and build confidence early on. Johnathon was patient and great with my son, who really liked working with him. On top of that, their prices were the most reasonable we found in the area. Highly recommend if you're looking for a driving school that gets your teen real practice right away without breaking the bank.

My son was talking his driving school lessons. The first…read morelesson was ok. The second lesson, the teacher (Raul) next to him was on his phone the whole time watching videos instead of teaching the driving. When I called to complain the company about the instructor (RAUL), and his complete inappropiate behaviour, they lied to me that they will reschedule a class with another teacher. Furthermore, the teacher Raul call me and very rudely start screaming on the phone, disrespecting me and my son and saying that my son was a liar. I asked to speak with a supervisor or management, to address the problem, but they declined to give me the info. Use another more professional company, it will be better spent with some company that cares about teaching and not insulting the clients.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - GRACE DRIVING SCHOOL…read more I am truly grateful for my experience with Grace Driving School. From the moment I learned they were family-owned and had female driving instructors, I already felt confident I was making the right choice. The moment I read all the wonderful reviews--especially about how fantastic they are with younger drivers--I made an immediate decision to go with them. I didn't even bother looking for alternatives, and I'm so glad I didn't. What I loved most is their simplified, non-overwhelming teaching techniques. They know exactly how to meet you where you are. Mariam- the adopted Leo in particular, is incredibly systematic and intuitive. She adjusts the learning style based on what works best for you. I'm a visual learner, and she would literally draw things out so I could clearly understand the concepts. That meant so much to me. And Manuel, The Zen Master -- hands down the most patient man I've ever encountered... and that's with me driving! His calm demeanor, steady guidance, and genuine care make you feel safe, supported, and capable. They set you up for success, step by step. I am truly honored to have been one of their students. The experience was absolutely worth it, and I can't recommend them enough. Humbled to be their student. If you're looking for driving lessons, don't think twice--enroll with Grace Driving School. You will be in the best hands.

I feel that their instructor Nathaniel harassed me. This man is probably around 50 and I'm 21 and I…read moreshowed up trying to learn how to drive, and he told me twice that my tattoo was "cute" (commented on two different tattoos) and that my voice was "cute." He also wasn't even a good instructor, we would get to a dead end and I'd have to ask him to turn left or right while being fully stopped. He reached over and adjusted my wheel slightly while on a residential street approximately 5 times without saying a word. I got annoyed and I asked him, "am I driving too close to the other cars?" to which he replied "yes." You're supposed to tell me that! I have reason to believe that it was partially to invade my space especially due to the flirty comments. I've never had another instructor behave this way before, tried him out and was disappointed. I asked for a refund for just that lesson after I had switched to another instructor for my remaining 4 hours I had prepaid as part of the package. I did this to not lose any more money to this company, and another instructor was sufficient for the remaining lessons. When I asked for one for ONLY the lesson with Nathaniel (which they should have offered in the first place), they offered me a complimentary lesson with another instructor instead, stating that they "understood my frustration" and would "have a conversation with him." This completely dodges accountability. This service is not what I paid for and I will be having to go out of my way to file a charge dispute with my bank to make things right. I also reported him to the DMV already online. When I posted about the school and reporting the school to the DMV on my Instagram account, one of my old coworkers reached out to me. She's 18. I didn't even mention his name in my post, yet she had asked me "did you get Nathaniel?". I was like "how the heck did you know?" And apparently he had harassed her too. He thought she was underage and still proceeded to make inappropriate comments about her height. Take this review as a warning. This man shouldn't be teaching driving to anybody ESPECIALLY high schoolers because he is abusing his position of power to harass young girls and women. They responded to this review alerting me that they were advised to sue. As a response, I have attached the email, which includes no personal information about anyone whatsoever, in which they acknowledged that his behavior was unacceptable, not "small talk." They also included in their public response to my review that "lessons are 2 hours long and can be stopped at any time if students feel uncomfortable." This sentence honestly really frustrated me because I feel that it inappropriately shifts the responsibility onto me, a new driver who did not know where we even were on the road or how to get back to the school, to tell a man 3 times my size and double my age while alone in the car with him and reliant on his guidance, that I feel uncomfortable and wish to stop the lesson and head back. I consider this victim blaming. The fact that I reached out the day after and did everything I could to inform them of his behavior and state that I was no longer comfortable working with him after the lesson should have been enough for them to absolve me of blame from this situation. Their response speaks for itself. I stand by my review and encourage fellow Yelpers to always share their experiences, good or bad.

My 16yr old son needed some hours driving with a professional and was referred to Cornerstone. He…read moretook three 2-hr lessons from Daniel, who turned out to be the owner of Cornerstone. My daughter had taken lessons from another company where the instructor was professional but not nearly as informative and thorough as Daniel was with me, the parent, about what he was going to teach before the session and what they did after the session. As other reviewers have mentioned, Daniel is so knowledgeable about every aspect of instructing "how" to be a good driver, why you need to maneuver the car this way or that way, and took my son on all sorts of streets and freeways and different situations. And yes, Daniel is very funny (in a subtle way, I've noticed myself) and very very patient. And my son can attest to these comments! If you're looking for a driving school, I HIGHLY recommend Cornerstone!

I had always been really nervous about getting behind the wheel but Luis was incredibly patient and supportive and he made the lessons enjoyable. He made sure I felt comfortable at every step, which made a huge difference in building my confidence. The staff at the school, including the secretary, were all super nice as well and really flexible with scheduling my lessons, which I appreciated since I have a pretty busy schedule. The pricing was very reasonable, especially for the quality of instruction I received. I passed my driving test on the first try! If you're someone who's been putting off driving because of fear or nerves, I highly recommend Abel's Driving School. They truly made a difference for me, and I'm so grateful !!!

After about a year, I started taking weekly driving lessons with instructors, and within a couple of months, I was able to pass my driver's test just before my permit expired. I got my license at 25, and honestly, I sometimes feel like I'm behind compared to others who got theirs much earlier. Now, I'm in the process of purchasing my own vehicle, which I know will be a big step for me. Having a car is important, especially for emergencies and having the freedom to get where I need to go. Without this driving school and the support of its instructors, I don't think I would have been able to do it. If you're out there feeling afraid, behind, or like it's too late, don't give up. It doesn't hurt to try. I was scared too, and I still made it happen. It's possible.

Highly recommended!!
