Ignoring her and texting on your phone is not exceptable as well. Also first lesson stop daughter not comfortable with exclamation and Rose told her if she ruins her transmission we are paying for it. Ummmm NO!!!!! Thats your problem when your teaching people how to drive,you can't expect them to know right off the bat how to drive. That is what you are hired for. No where in your add does it say anyone is responsible for transmission or any other thing that goes wrong mechanically with your vehicle.there is no contract signed to make any liable. Paying ROSE for lessons is one thing,but paying her $170 to refresh her and take her for test and not pay attention to her is wrong,and to tell her to tell the dmv she is dyslexic when she is not. I guess Rose picks and chooses who she will be kind to. I will never recommend this driving school to anyone. Rose is not professional and I would not want anyone to have to deal with someone so ruin and inconsiderate to humans.

Thanks Rose for making this entire experience for my kids so much easier.

First, it was my oldest son, Erick, in November 2024, and today, April 3, 2025. There are so many driving schools, and my husband and I chose the best without a doubt. Ariel Driving School was our choice. I'm glad we chose them. The great job they did with my oldest son in 2024 was surpassed in April 2025 with my daughter, Shaylene. Thank you, ARIEL, Viviana, and your great team of driving professionals for making my children feel relaxed and confident behind the wheel.

Growing up in New York City, I had literally never driven a car until I took my first lesson with…read moreMejia's Driving School March of 2016. Two months later (unbelievably), I'm a licensed driver. It would not have been possible without them. I was nervous for my first lesson, but when I met Marcelo (one of the long-time instructors), he immediately put me behind the wheel. He probably trusted me more than he should have, but allowing me to drive from the moment I started helped me get over the mental barrier I had created for myself when it came to driving. Why choose Mejia's above the rest? - You'll get your license. They know what they're doing. Great, effective teachers, with a variety of teaching styles to suit anyone. If one isn't working out, definitely ask to work with another. I took two lessons with Marcelo, and the rest with Jhemmy. They know the test inside out (they'll even simulate the actual test for you to make sure you feel at ease for the actual thing). At first, I had trouble with turns, so we drilled them. Then, it was parking, so we drilled them. Soon, I felt super comfortable behind the wheel. Aside from ~max two hours driving outside of lessons, all of my experiences driving were with Mejia's. Whether you've never driven before or you're a more experienced looking to finally get their license, Mejia's has you covered. - The cost. It's ~$35 per hour lesson, with discounts available with class packages. Incredible deal and they're far more affordable than other driving schools in Rhode Island. For me, I spent less than $300 dollars IN TOTAL for all of the lessons and the car for the actual driving test. Unbeatable. -Convenience. Lessons were easy to schedule (either via text, phone, or at the end of a lesson). Both English and Spanish speaking instructors. Door to door- they'll pick you up at home and drop you off at home. Flexible lesson times at all hours of the day. A lot of flexibility/availability with cars for the road test. You'll take your test in the same car you learned with. - Service. Not only are they great instructors, they're high quality people. I'm going to miss spending hours with these folks now that I'm done with lessons. Very professional, accommodating, friendly. On the occasions that lessons ran a few minutes over, they never charged me - they care about your learning and your safety beyond the exam. With Mejia's you're more than just a student, you become one of their own! Beautiful local, family business. An added bonus? everyone at the DMV road test site knows and loves the Mejia's - just by virtue of having taken lessons with Jhemmy, my tester trusted my driving abilities. I was told, "Jhemmy's students don't fail." Understandably so- she's patient, clear, informative, and supportive even when she's criticizing your technique. A natural teacher who cares about her students while somehow managing to run the entire business. Mejia's - you're the best. Thanks for helping me get my license. I look forward to seeing the business thrive and grow.

Horrible experience! Unprofessional, not punctual, do not…read morecare at all to take responsibility in not preparing well enough the learner. I payed for 16 hours of practice.

I failed my first test ~6 years ago and had not driven since because I was so scared and ashamed. Kathy is so patient and kind that she made me feel so much more comfortable in the drivers seat. I honestly don't think I could have surmounted my fears about driving and passed the road test without Kathy's help. 10/10 would recommend Kathy's Driving School. Thank you so much Kathy!

Sadly, we did not have a good experience here. My son's driver took a personal call while my son…read morewas behind the wheel, had the radio playing, stopped at a gas station for a bit without telling him (left him in the car in a bad neighborhood while he went inside for several minutes), took him on the highway without preparing him (it was his first time and then proceeded to tell him that he almost got in an accident). My son felt rushed, the instructor raised his voice, my son got rattled and lost confidence. At the time my son only had about five hours of experience behind the wheel. The instructor then got lost on the way back, started cursing (using the f word- not at my son, just in general) because he couldn't get his phone to work for directions. He had my son pull over and then my son helped him fix the phone (it was on the Uber setting, not on the driving setting-is this instructor an Uber driver too?). When they arrived at my house I asked where they drove out of curiosity and because I wanted to have my son practice the same trip with me, and all he said was "route 1". Not quite accurate. They went to the parking lot of the DMV in Providence actually and took 95 to get there and back from Warwick. I wouldn't be writing this negative review if the manager of Drive Right hadn't been so rude when I questioned these things, making excuses for the instructor and then said there's no way that the instructor could have used the F word (because he's been with them too long-maybe he said damn but nothing more she claimed). Essentially, she was calling my son a liar. He had no reason to lie. He was ready and excited to learn. I'm really disappointed in this company, I would never recommend them just out of a question of safety (and now for rudeness as well). Out of respect for the instructor who has to make a living, I will not use his name here. He is an older man though and perhaps patience is not his strong suit and proper instructor etiquette (at least as I see it) is not his way. They said they would refund my money for the lesson due to my complaints, but they never did. I would never recommend to anyone but possibly they have better instructors on their roster.
