Rhodes Driving School

Hello Vanessa! Please feel free to call us at 210-680-3980 if you need any assistance with your student's account with us. Also please keep in mind, we do offer behind the wheel lessons seven days per week along with a one year contract term to complete the required class and 7 lessons (two hours each). Our staff is always willing to assist students in scheduling behind the wheel appointments. However, a common issue that students have is waiting too long after receiving their learner's permit to begin scheduling with us. A one year contract term from starting the class does provide enough time to complete all requirements seeing as the students must hold their learner's permit for at least 6 months. We do also understand that students are very busy in school with extra curricular activities, which is why we do offer lessons behind the wheel on Saturdays and Sundays. Again, I strongly encourage you to call the office for assistance if needed, seeing as we are unable to identify your student without more information. Have a great day! -Management Update 1/17/25: Vanessa, I am glad you contacted the office for assistance. We were able to schedule your student for two lessons behind the wheel with the instructors. Please keep in mind that the state requires students to hold the permit for a minimum of 6 months prior to taking the driving test for license. Seeing as your student received the permit earlier this month, your student is right on track to complete in time! I would kindly ask you to consider updating your first review seeing as no fees have been charged to you and we were able to assist you in a timely manner with scheduling. Our staff's goal is to assist all of our students and parents when needed. Should you have any further issues in the future, please do not hesitate to reach out for assistance. I am sure our staff will be able to find a resolution for you. Thank you for choosing Rhodes Driving School! -Management

Hello, Per Texas state law, teens under the age of 18 are required to hold their learner's permit for a minimum of 6 months and be 16 years of age prior to testing for the license. This is why we allow students to practice with the instructors once per month- to stay on track with the 6 month law and allow for ample time to practice with parents between appointments. This is explained to parents upon registration/contract review and is also explained to students in the classroom. Our office is always ready and able to assist students with scheduling or any other questions throughout the process. Rhodes has been educating and licensing our community for over 40 years because our company mission is to promote safe driving through the power of education. The absolute last thing that we want to do as a company is take payment without seeing our students through their driver's education journey in obtaining the license. Our students' tuition is an investment in their education. If you would like to speak with an office Manager to discuss your experience further, we encourage you to call us at 210-680-3980. Have a great day!

Hello, Please contact our office to speak with the Area General Manager if you have had an issue with our school or services. You can call 210-680-3980 to discuss further, seeing as your review was very vague. We would like to know more about your or your student's experience if you are registered with us. However as a Driver's Education School which has been educating the city of San Antonio for 47 years, you can be assured we are an accredited, reputable, and state licensed Driving School. Have a great day and I look forward to hearing from you soon! -Management

Hello Reneca, Seeing as you have left us a review online (which we always encourage customer feedback!) I would like to clarify a few things for you and those reading. Your student has completed the state required 32 hours of in class instruction and received the learner's permit. Your student also completed the state required 14 hours of in car instruction and has received the final certificate of completion. We are unable to legally administer the driver's test to any student under the age of 18 who has not held the learner's permit for at least 6 months. This is per Texas state law. Our driving school is highly regulated by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations and due to the importance of both Texas law and driver's safety, we are not able to schedule your student for the driving test until those requirements are met, as explained to you previously. Your student's contract was cancelled due to the belligerent phone call to our office and threats to the company. Despite your request of a refund, there is no refund due at this point seeing as there is prorated class and drive charges for classes received per our signed contract. I hope your student is able to obtain the drivers license through DPS and I am disappointed that Rhodes was unable to complete your student's journey of obtaining the license. Wish you all the best! -Management
