Rivera's Driving School is your best choice in your journey to learning to drive. Michael is the best instructor you could have as a student. He ALWAYS made me feel confident about my potential. He wasn't just an instructor but a great friend! On my first attempt of the road test, I PASSED! And much credit goes to his methods of instruction. I would highly recommend choosing this driving school. Thank you Michael. - H. Singh

Save your money and go elsewhere, there are plenty of other driving schools in the area. This is my personal experience, I booked this driving school because it was close to my house. A few things that turned me off: 1. He's the only instructor! Told me himself which explains his lack of professionalism. 2. During many of our sessions, he does not pay attention to your driving.
Literally on his phone conducting business, scheduling other drivers, answering calls from students, calling his receptionist, etc. I had to tell him it made me uncomfortable. 3. He's been late picking me up yet expects students to be on time. I remember him having me drive to pick-up the next student, upon arrival he was noticeably agitated that the student was not outside.
I suggested that he called or text the student to let him know he had arrived, he said no and didn't have time for that. 4. He comes off arrogant, lacks patience and has an attitude at times. He's apparently been in the area for several decades and brags about being "booked and busy" not in a humble way either. By the time he's done laughing at his own corny jokes, booking sessions on his cell phone, and occasionally throwing in a few snarky and ignorant comments about passerby's, other drivers, and his own students, the session is over and you feel like you accomplished nothing.

I bought a full package with this company, I only did 2 driving classes and had to ask for a refund. Everyone that I've encountered in the office was nice expect for the driving instructor. The service that he provides is horrible. You would believe that you're begging him to teach you how to drive or taking the courses for free. I don't know what his problem is, but I hope he finds happiness within himself one day.

It was an amazing experience learning to drive with Micheal he's a very jovial instructor who communicates well with his student; it was never a dull moment with Micheal while learning to drive, I would recommend anyone who wants to learn to drive and have a great experience while learning River's Auto Driving School is the best place to go.

Hi, wondering if this driving school is for you? Well it is they were very professional, helpful and organized and patient. My instructor was Michael. He was absolutely great and very helpful he understood my fears and helped me get over them. I purchased a package which included everything I needed. My appointments were scheduled to my schedule with no problem and no wait.
Let's fast forward to Road test day. I was nervous and Michael spoke to me with words of encouragement all the way to the site and to my surprise 10mins later I became a driver. I couldnt Believe it. Thank you Michael and Rivera's Auto driving school for instructing me on getting my license before my permit expired. Don't hesitate call and ask question you will not be disappointed.

If you want to learn how to drive and not just pass your road test go with Rivera's. I'm forever grateful for the awesome teaching and instruction I received from Michael. I began my lessons in August and have my license in October. Rivera's meets you where you, from picking you up at your door and dropping you back home for lessons, to affordable prices for lessons, 5 hour course and the 6 hour cours; I'm glad I went with Rivera's for my lessons and I would recommend that everyone give them a try you won't regret it!

I like Rivera's Auto Driving School first because of their beautiful and comfortable cars, secondly because of their instructors and office staff. I was humbled to learn my five hours class, book my road test immediately after and took 7 more road practice. I like my instructor "Mr Michael",h e talks about the least error and the remedy. At first I wasn't feeling comfortable with the too much talking, but then I noticed it was helping to improve my knowledge in driving, proper listening and implementation=Success, hence I passed my road test and got my license.
