Experiencia fantástica: Great driving school ! You guys are the best !

Experiencia fantástica: Probably the best place to learn to drive. The instructors are patient and excellent teachers.

Experiencia fantástica: This establishment is wonderful. They took care of my children and taught them well. They are now licensed!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent driving school for teens and adults alike.. My daughter received good trainig at this driving school. The owner and staff are very cordial and respectful. The most deserving recommendation was how they pick my daughter from the house and drops her off at home after each day of training. I highly recommend this driving school.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was so professional & my daughter enjoyed the driving experience!! I would recommend this driving school to all high schoolers!!

Experiencia fantástica: I signed my daughter up for June session of classes and the customer service was the best, everything was explained thoroughly by the receptionist Ms. Tammy she made everything less complicated the environment was very clean and a great place for the classes to be held. I recommend this place and will come again.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently signed up my son for classes and behind the wheel lessons..when I walked in the place was very cleaned and I was greeting by a friendly smile Ms. Tammy helped me very efficiently and helped me understand the contract she is very friendly. From walking in to walking out it was great service, definitely recommend the school

Experiencia negativa: Do not waste your time or money with this company. They are the most unorganized people I have ever worked with. They do not respect your time. FOUR of our 5 drive times have been cancelled or rescheduled at the last minute. They don't call to let you know. You have to show up and find out that the appointment you made isn't going to happen...or they will start 15-30 minutes late with no regard to what you have planned the rest of the day. Voicing your concerns to the owner is pointless. Definitely not a well run business. There are better ones to choose- wish we had done so.

Experiencia fantástica: Went to driving school here and took my driving test .. course was excellent. Test was easy and quick and the instructor had great conversation and was great thank you!

Experiencia negativa: Just don't. Instant regret with my teen & no refunds. Constant hounding demanding more money when I paid & did not get all the training for my teen as I should have.

Experiencia fantástica: 231128TU. This academy is really interested on being sure you can drive well. Mr Lester Vickers is old school but a wise man. Flexible time for practice even if you don't have a car and live far from there, he will go and pick you up. The receptionist is very kind and warm. I got some very useful advices.

Experiencia fantástica: I went here 4 or so years ago when I first started driving and I don’t regret it at ALL. They will teach you the right way. Don’t get intimidated by how they teach, this is an amazing place.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best place to learn driving. Professional and highly experienced team. I will never forget my experience. I recommend riverstone driving school.

Experiencia fantástica: Mr V is old school, some people may have trouble with him, but his attitude is wise.

Experiencia fantástica: The receptionist was very friendly with a very warm and welcoming smile. Mr Lester Vickers the instructor was FANTASTIC. First he made me feel very confident and at ease with his words of confidence before the test started. I highly recommend this place.

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best driving school to get First time Driving license for New Immigrants. I highly recommend.

Experiencia negativa: Would have rather had my eyes gouged out with a spoon than be in a car with one of their instructors. I was belittled and talked down to as if I was subhuman. The instructor acted disgusted the minute he entered the car with me. I truly believe it was to try to intimidate me into having worse results on my test, and I’d like to preface that I normally do not write reviews for places. However, my experience with Riverstone driving school was so traumatic to me that I felt I needed to shine a light on how they don’t appreciate the business their students bring, nor do they provide adequate service. To any parent reading this, find another driving school. Anything is better than how they treated me.

Experiencia negativa: This review was long overdue but the professor was the absolute worst! I was very happy that all of the paperwork was seamless but when it came down to taking the driving lessons, I am really confused on why a person with no patience and so rude is teaching. First of all, on my first lesson he did not think of checking his papers to see if I had previous experience or not and proceeded to making me feel horrible because I did not know how to turn to the left or right. All in all, horrible experience. Do not recommend it to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: 100/100 nice people they don’t make you nervous excellent customer service I say the best driving school to take your road test definitely recommend it !!!

Experiencia fantástica: 10/10! Absolutely lovely service, I was in and out quick and the man that did my test was lovely. Great option for a road test.

Experiencia fantástica: It was a great experience to do my behind the wheel lessons here and I will definitely be back in November to do my drivers test. I have learned a lot.

Experiencia negativa: I came here to learn how to drive and I was taught by Mr.Lester. He was incredibly rude, unprofessional, and childish. He was on the phone talking to someone for a large portion of my first lesson with him, then on the second lesson, he became extremely disrespectful towards me for no reason. He got mad at me because I was on my phone yet he was doing the same thing, so I put my phone away and decide to listen to music while i observe the other student. He then asked me to give him my phone because I was "on my phone", yet I was only listening to music. He treated the other student (female) COMPLETELY different than he treated me and was yelling at me while she was driving. After this, I decided to quit the class because I couldn't tolerate the disrespect from this guy, and only gave us half our money back. Literally NEVER BRING YOUR CHILDREN HERE unless you want them to fail their drivers test. The only positive from this place was the secretary who actually knew how to properly speak to people.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to get your liscense they are very nice and not rude which was a great experience would recommend 10-10

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. lester was a very good teacher. He taught me the things I need to know patiently. The lady at the front desk was also very helpful. My mom and my brother had their driving lesson and road test here. I did both on the same day and everything was smooth. ☺️☺️ 10/10 would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent learning academy! Very professional and kind.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a very good experience today while taking my adult drivers test. I highly recommend taking it here. Mr. Vickers is very funny

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was super helpful in helping me to get my license! The staff were very nice and friendly as well! :)

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. Lester was very professional with good communication skills. He was pleasant and easy going while teaching you how to drive. Thank you Mr. Lester for your service.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter is enjoying behind the wheel right now! Her instructor is awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: i love this place more then anything. 12 minutes was all it took to do my test. the dps sucked and this place saved my birthday. much love

Experiencia fantástica: The staff was super pleasant, I felt a presence of more than a business establishment. I knew these individuals don’t do this only as a service to the community to educate young drivers. Once you meet them you leave as if you went to a unforgettable church service the spiritual gift they provide in the way they communicate and help everyone that enters that door. I’ll never forget this powerful man…

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful! I recommend the adult classes here, they are very valuable and professional!

Experiencia negativa: i came to this place looking for my nephew to start and get signed up only to be ignored several times at the front door by the African lady in the front. i came back another time to try again because i thought maybe they were busy;But no. the place has poor communication, they barely answer the phone,do not have enough staff members, and have no sense of bath and body works room spray that they so desperately need in this time and day .pls do not waste your time,money, and/or sense of smell going to this place. I DO NOT!!! i DO NOT BY ANY MEANS Recommend going to this driving school. take yo 375 dollars elsewhere have a nice day.

Experiencia fantástica: I give them 5 starts because Mr, B was and is very helpful, professional, and giving encouragement to both of my daughters, he help them to feel confident on the road and help them to get driving license and a permit. Now I’m just waiting for my second youngest daughter to get close to the date when she can get her actual license and we are going back to him to do the road test that way we don’t have to wait on the DMV long lines.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter is 20 years old and I called Mr Burnett at RDA and asked him some questions. He said come in and let me look at your paper work, mind you this was even with my daughter not being a client. My daughter and I went to dps got her permit and went back to rda. Mr Burnett set her appointment for tomorrow for her to start driving. Thank you rda for making this be an easy process.

Experiencia fantástica: Y’all helped me out a lot y’all where great thank y’all so much !

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, very respectful. would recommend everyone to come, 5 stars with no doubt.

Experiencia fantástica: It was lovely. Their services are perfect!

Experiencia positiva: Patronize local Rosenberg businesses

Experiencia fantástica: They were helpful and made getting my license easier. If not for them I would have had to Wait another month so I am very grateful.

Experiencia fantástica: I give Riverstone Driving Academy 5 stars! The staff is so courteous and informative. The receptionist (Pat) is as nice as the instructors are. Mr. Lester is an excellent instructor, very well mannered, professional and easy-going. My sister felt comfortable, she went through the course and passed all the requirements and now she's license to drive. I recommend the adult class for those that need it. Thank you for all you do for our community Maria Rose

Experiencia positiva: If you are staying near Rosenberg area you can definitely try this place for getting your driving test done. Friendly staff.

Experiencia negativa: Don’t waste your money this place is so unprofessional.I prefer Safeway driving school in Sugarland.

Experiencia fantástica: My experience here couldn’t have been anything but the best. The instructor was super helpful and very nice. The front desk lady was also super nice and got all my paperwork ready super quickly. Definitely recommend this business to anyone who needs to take a road test!! i bet their classes are also great!

Experiencia negativa: Bad place!!!! Bad experience, wouldn’t recommend it!!!!!

Experiencia negativa: Terrible place!!!! The instructor was always on his phone while “giving lesson”,, very rude the owner and staff!!!! I was told the lessons were gonna be two hours- so not true!!!! After we paid all the fee they wouldn’t answer the phone when I had questions I had to walk in and demand that they put my daughter on the schedule, cause the only day that I can take her is Saturday. Worst place ever!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! They were so nice my daughter was not anxious at all. They even went the extra mile and helped us book our DPS appointment.

Experiencia fantástica: I just took my test today and the owner was so helpful and really calmed my nerves ! If ic puke rate them higher i would. 10/10 recommend taking your test here!

Experiencia negativa: The owner, Lester, is the rudest man I’ve met in my entire life. I would never recommend having your child taught here. The degree to which they mistreat other people should be a crime. I literally witnessed one of the instructors yelling at a student, their own vehicles in disrepair to the point one can actually fail a test by using one, and the attitude these people give to you when you give your hard earned money to them. I would highly recommend taking your test at the DPS (where they only charge you $11 instead of $75), or if one is a new driver, I would suggest taking classes at a more professional driving school. This school is clearly just a money scam.

Experiencia negativa: Total joke

Experiencia negativa: The instructor Lester Vickers is very rude and does not know what he is saying most the time. He expects us to know everything and is ill mannered at times.

Experiencia fantástica: My wife took the road test today. Mr Vickers was nice same time good instructor and strict while teaching. We highly recommend here

Experiencia fantástica: Really Good place to bring your kids to learn how to drive. The owner are really good with kids.

Experiencia negativa: I can only agree with the low-star reviews above. Keep your children away from this place. It's unlikely to be any worse somewhere else. The practices they teach might be dangerous. Depends on instructor, though.

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Riverstone Driving Academy for a Driving test. I passed my test on the second attempt though ( first time made a big mistake at the start off (my bad). On my second attempt my examiner/tester was the owner Mr. Lester Vickers. He was very encouraging and quite supportive. He put me right at ease (I was a bag of nerves after the first attempt failure). Found him very courteous. The ladies at the office are equally polite and efficient with their paper work. If you are not taking driving lessons with them and only going in for a Road Test, I recommend you drive around the area to get yourself familiar with the roads there.

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place. They're so helpful. I definitely recommend coming here for your road test

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for your professional work

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for the great service sir! I called last Monday with an urgent request for a driving test and the owner happily accommodated within the hour. He was also patient when I had to watch the TX impact videos so I could receive the certificate before I could do the road test. He gave me clear directions and was fair and reasonable in his assessment. He was also very personable and had a great conversation during the test! Thank you!

Experiencia negativa: Unprofessional

Experiencia fantástica: We visited RDA for 3rd party driving test and we had positive from it, because of clear pre-instruments and feedbacks. Paperwork by Sandy is also nice/quick with good smile

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and helpful staff! Quick and easy experience!

Experiencia fantástica: I was ay this place to have my road test done. I was here for less than an hour total. The staff was pleasant and courteous. The examiner gave clear and concise instructions that put me at ease during the test. I would recommend this place to anybody that needs a road test.

Experiencia negativa: I wanted to give negative rating. Mr Lester is rude, ill- mannered. He doesn't know how to talk to people. Don't come here. He fails intentialy so to suck more money out of you. He keep bugging u when u taking driving test so that u fail the test. It's a just big scanadal..

Experiencia fantástica: It was easy, fast. Great for doing Dps Driver’s test. It was a great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Both my wife as well as my teenage son did their road test here and passed. Very professional staff and very firm. I highly recommend this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Very patient. Good directions. I would definitely recommend it.

Experiencia negativa: This place is set to fail students.the instructor took my road test.he said you don’t supposed to slow down when you taking the right turn.just keep your speed and take a turn.i stop at stop sign he said you didn’t stop at Stop sign.he failed me.they are just making money.waste of money waste of time.dont go there.you get definitely fail result...

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. Lester was a great instructor, and the receptionist, as well as the recruiter at the Dps were helpful and efficient!

Experiencia fantástica: I don’t even understand all the negative reviews Mr. Lester was very polite you could tell he was a no nonsense man but very fair as well. He gave me confidence and assurance and I passed the test fair and square

Experiencia negativa: He made no inclination to schedule the final portion of our driving lessons, which he stated there was a time limit for. After attempting to contact him several times to make appointments for drive times, he only responded after the time limit had passed. He then revealed to me and my sister that the last drive time that we needed and “had failed to schedule” (we tried contacting him SEVERAL times) would cost us extra since it happened after the supposed “deadline” that I’m sure he made up to garner more money. Never go this school, Mr. Vickers scams people and bullies children.

Experiencia negativa: The instructor randomly fails people in order to have them take the class again and pay more money. Its done on a random basis to avoid suspion. He is also extremely rude. He has scammed several people. Avoid this place if at all possible. It is a RIP off people

Experiencia negativa: **Scam alert** This place is set to fail students. My husband and i were told about the place as we walked out of the dps and decided to try it out. The instructor took my husband on the road for only about ten minutes. The instructor gave my husband obstructions saying “in America you can pause at a red light and proceed right if no car is coming,” which was a discriminatory statement to begin with. They come back to the driving school and the instructor had not wrote anything down so my husband was thinking it was good and he passed. When they got back to the school the instructor says “oh I forgot to right it down but you failed because you paused at that light, you didn’t stop.” My husband was also informed that he could make 30 mistakes before failing the exam and then ended up failing by ONE. The instructor had also failed three people before us for similar mistakes and made each person pay repeated times to take the test again. The instructor and his workers lied saying my husband was aggressive and yelling at them and throwing things and even threatened my husband saying “I’m a man and I will handle you like a man. “ Very unprofessional and a scam.

Experiencia negativa: The owner Mr. Lester is very rude and unprofessional. His staff lady at the dps is getting people out the line and sending to his office once you pay him he is totally a different personality with a bad attitude. I brought to his attention that we drove almost an hour to his office and he yelled infront of other clients that’s none of his business and we should leave if we are not comfortable with him. I would never recommend anyone to his academy. He only cares until he gets his money. Very bad experience and I am not the only one, there were couple of other Clients who got mad instead of listening to their concerns he proudly said to leave his office.

Experiencia negativa: The owner is very unprofessional, rude, and tends to be incredibly late every appointment. Made snarky comment when I came in for a test “You better not have an attitude ’m not the one who will fail”. Mr.Lester is very unprofessional. I would not recommend anyone at this driving school.

Experiencia negativa: Driving teacher/owner was rude to my child, belittled him and made hurtful comments to him unrelated to the instruction of driving. I wonder how many other kids he has done this to. Don’t ever go here! #stayfaraway

Experiencia fantástica: Great teacher took my road test yesterday was nervous he was very patient recommend mr Lester’s !
