Gonzalez Driving School: Reviews
Negative experience: ponen una mujer de 68 años que no tiene ni la paciencia ni compression para Enseñar , deberian poner personas con paciencia que Enseñe realmente no que lo haga sentir a uno como un stupido porque no sabe o no comprende en el mismo segundo para eso uno paga para ir a que le enseñe nadie va ir a este lugar a pagar sabiendo conducir, un carro sucio , no me acuerdo del nombre de esa señora o lo pondria pero una persona con muy poca paciencia y amor por su trabajo solo quieren dinero y ya
Fantastic experience: Amazing service! Very spontaneous and professional, thank you!
Fantastic experience: Love this place
Negative experience: PÉSIMO servicio. El carro sucio, la profesora sucia y todo el tiempo mirando tik tok. No lo recomiendo para NADA
Negative experience: I haven’t even finished my experience yet, but that lady is so mean She made me cry, i had never step foot on the real roads till this class. I thought they would be more understanding, but she literally asked me if I had mental issues??? Cus I was nervous?? Like what. But anywho, I wouldn’t recommend to anywho who has a sense of self-respect.
Fantastic experience: Just did my second 2 hour driving session and Angelica has been great and has been really helpful she was great to work with
Fantastic experience: Had my 1st 2 hour lesson with Rosie today and it went great. I needed a refresher because I need to build confidence to drive on my own soon and for work purposes. The 5 stars is directly for her because I feel like the company could work on with pick ups and drop offs in the future. Other than that I plan to book with Rosie again :)
Fantastic experience: Angelina was great and firm with explaining the rules for driving, and giving me a more clear vision on being straightforward when driving and making sure I was ad-hearing to all the rules of the road which I appreciate and I’m sure others have to
Fantastic experience: Hey everyone, I just finished my course of 6 hours with Rosie and let me tell you, she helped me to overcome my nervousness. As always, she was calm and patient with me, I really liked that! Now that I have some pratice (I need more of course), it's time to pass the final DMV exam
Fantastic experience: I just finished my 6 hours behind the wheel training and got my certificate. This driving school was great and I have no complaints because everything went smoothly. My instructor was Angelica and she was nice, clear and very professional. Every instruction was clear and i felt that I have become a better driver after the six hours of training.
Fantastic experience: Very great teachers I got my license first try with the help of Mrs.Angelica Who thought me very great the signals and everything you are going tos see in the DMV
Fantastic experience: Recommend Angelica she is very nice and teaches well. She explains everything in detail.
Negative experience: Don't waste your money on this school! It will be the most expensive ride you will ever take. They teach you nothing and you will get scolded for not knowing how to drive, unbelievable. ¡No pierdan su dinero en esta escuela! Será el paseo más costoso que harán. No enseñan nada y saldarán regañados por no saber manejar, algo increíble.
Fantastic experience: My total confidence and professionalism and an excellent person, an excellent instructor, all my recommendation for Mrs. Angelica, for me and my wife, very professional and as humans, for some, they may not think alike. I invite you to visit this driving school and an excellent instructor, Mrs. angelica
Negative experience: Very very disrespectful Gonzalez is a very rude man and this company should be shut down please don’t waste your money or your time please don’t the lady Rosa was very nice but the owner has a horrible disrespectful nasty attitude he shouldn’t even open that place with that attitude.there ate places that will help you with an affordable price.
Fantastic experience: Very good training skills and knowledge
Fantastic experience: Good school to use ! Well I didn’t use the school I just payed to use their car and it’s 160 I understand why but , if you go ask for ROSIEEE she’s the best instructor! I passed on my first try zero errors I was all nervous! But all you gotta do is listen to what she tells you and you’ll be fine thank you Gonzalez driving school and especially ROSIEEEE
Fantastic experience: La señora angelica fue muy buena persona y explica muy bien cada detalle yo no savia nada. Y gracias a ella ora ya manejo seguro y gracias doña angelica
Fantastic experience: The drivers training was amazing, the driving instructor Anglelica made it easy to understand the ideals of driving. Her patience made it better as she instructs calmly. I know I’m ready for my drivers test because of them.
Negative experience: Terrible service, I rented the car for the exam and the cars were not in good condition. The instructor is good, but the school is very disorganized.
Fantastic experience: Their driving lessons are amazing! Instructor Angelica is very patient and she explains everything well , and she goes over the rules of driving . Theyre also very friendly and work with your schedule. I am now more confident in driving thanks to Gonzalez Driving School ,thank you angelica for your service.
Fantastic experience: Angélica fue una maestra increíble. No sabía nada sobre la conducción y en 6 horas ahora me siento seguro al volante. Recomendaría esta escuela e instructor a cualquiera que quiera aprender a conducir.
Negative experience: The owner was super disrespectful and messed up the driving lesson schedule. The owners wife as well would tell you something then say something else after some time. The owner does not know how to treat customers and does not listen.Super old school. Don’t waste your time nor money. Only good thing was the instructor Rosa. But not worth it !!! Don’t do it.
Fantastic experience: Thanks to Rosa , I passed my behind wheel test today Thank u so much . I would very much recommend her and this place if in need of car or training
Fantastic experience: The experience this driving school gave me was phenomenal! Rosa was very very helpful , she taught me all the helpful tricks & tips to passing my behind the wheel.Very professional and the communication is just great.I passed my behind the wheel test on my first try because of Rosa teaching me all the ins and out of what to do and what not to do.Thank You Rosa :) I appreciate it.She’s also very sweet, patient and so kindhearted.If you have her as your instructor your lucky !
Fantastic experience: Rose, she was a great instructor and she went with me to dmv for my driving test. I highly recommend her.
Fantastic experience: Angelica is great at teaching very cleer spoken thank you
Fantastic experience: Rosy is an amazing instructor. She is so nice, patient and teaches great. I successfully passed my driving test on the first attempt thanks to all the tips I learned from her. The day of my driving test, she took me on a last ride early in the morning to go over everything I learned. Definitely recommend Rosy for those who have no experience with driving and taking driving school to prepare for the exam.
Fantastic experience: Angelica is a great instructor who is very clear with her words and praises the students when they do good and helps them when they need help. I learned so much on my first day and feel very confident about driving now.
Negative experience: Dont waste your time
Fantastic experience: This is the 2nd time I've used this company for my kids. They don't BS around they get your kids the instruction, education and drivetime that they need to pass DMV drivetest first time. And you can use their vehicle for the drive test since they're familiar with that car.
Fantastic experience: Super buena escuela!!! La recomiendo muchisimo yo tome clase con Angelica y super bien !!
Fantastic experience: Just finished my 6 hour behind the wheel requirement with my amazing driving instructor Angelica, she is very sweet and fun and jade great communication skills, would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Great place of driving skills And good prices too I really recomend this place
Fantastic experience: Nephew got his permit and is taking driving test soon.
Positive experience: It's true after the test they leave you there they need to fix that. Good thing they are close to the DMV. All my family go there for the behind the wheel test and passes tomorrow it's my son's turn hope he get a good teaches and pass his test.
Fantastic experience: Nice people
Negative experience: I never leave a review, even if I dislike a place. But this was the worst. I went to the dmv to take the behind the wheel test and after I was done, the instructors abandoned me at the dmv. I was outside waiting for them to come back but they never did. I was stranded there for an hour.
Negative experience: Owner is horrible,dubious, unprofessional and rude. Please look elsewhere.
Negative experience: the owner of this place has no education at all, very rude and unprofessional. 0 stars!!!!
Fantastic experience: People with their different experiences about this school as for me I did not experience racism and my teacher was the best. I recommend my friends and for the school management, I don't think you deserve these bad recommendations. Work on yourself and staff.
Positive experience: I don't understand all the hate on this school. I found the teaching to be very helpful and understandable.
Negative experience: Worst Driving school ever! Would give it a 0 star if possible. Very racist! No one should ever go here. They're more affordable driving schools that can actually help you and this one isn't it.
Negative experience: I would give 0 stars if I could. One time I called someone who had no record of my mentor paying for my classes. He did not know what he was agreeing to because I asked him if my lessons expire and he is like yes.This man acted so unprofessional , and mocked me. I hope it was not the owner because that would a shame. He claimed he did not care if I called Better Business Bureau!!! Moral of story do not come and waste your money here.
Fantastic experience: I love it , they were really kind and understanding. I recommend everyone goes here
Fantastic experience: The were really kind and patient. They even showed me how they would test me on the driving test. Reasonable price and well worth it. I eould by no doubt, recommend others here.
