De Leon Driving School 7448 River Glen Drive, Riverside, CA 92509

"Instructor was great and got my stepdaughter through her behind the wheel quickly. Highly recommend his services."

"I took his class in 2014 over the summer. I have memories to this day from this class. Lessons, rules of the road, and laws."

"If I could give this place and this man a negative 0 star I would!!!! Please PLEASE PLEASE do not send your children here for any type of service. Worst experience ever! And false advertising as well. To start with, when we first called and asked for his pricing we informed him that my daughter was 18, he then told us it would be $120 for as many sessions until my daughter learned to drive. When we got to his office/home there were many children running around and it seemed as if he was running a daycare. As we were registering he switched up the price and told us that it would be $230, I let it slide as I thought he got mixed up about the pricing on the phone call. We referred my daughters friends to him which are also 18 and he only charged them $120 as he originally had told us. My daughter went to take the lesson and after exactly one hour of driving she came home as he told her that he was hungry and needed to cut lesson short and he would do the other hour another day. While having my daughter driving vehicle (keep in mind she has never driven before) he was on his cell phone taking personal calls. When she would turn at a light or stop he kept telling her she would be dead or hospital right now that she Knew nothing and that my husband and I had not taught her not because we had no patience but because we were lazy! My daughter does not want to go on another ride with him again. I called him immediately to address all my concerns and what he had quoted me and charge me he that he told me at the beginning $120 for unlimited time of driving and sessions but once we arrived the price changed to $230 but he again told me it was a one time fee until she learned how to drive so he said oh I said that ok no problem I will continue to teach her until she learns. Keep in mind this man was not at all teaching my daughter! Better yet he was obnoxious and rude!!! I will be demanding my money back and I will be contacting the Best Business Bureau to inform them of his false advertising!!!! Please do not hire him he will change everything on you! Also I have no idea what my daughter GPA has to do with her learning how to drive. He asked her what her GPA was and I note this because I saw other reviews that also mention the same thing."

"He doesn't do for the Student all that he promises! If you have a student that needs extra help learning, he lacks going the distance as he says he can and will! He has knowledge to pass on but as far as the written itest goes, practicing the test on the DMV website and reading the handbook was necessary after his teaching. The actual Driving Instruction, he took my student out for less than 1 1/2 hours! My student stated being paranoid Still and that was expressed to him, yet he still wrapped up the lesson that quick.I don't want to relay each thing that was so disappointing about his Services but if he had increased his Driving Lesson by another hour or so behind the wheel, with his instruction, I'm pretty sure I would of seen a more confident and less dangerous Student on the road, when we went for a short drive in our neighborhood (@5-10 mph), immediately After! I am a concerned parent who wants to make other parents more cautious in choosing his Services! If you have an easy read student and an unafraid student driver His instruction might be a fine choice Otherwise I recommend checking out other places before making your decision! He also says he is going to sign off with a certificate that he has given 8 hours of driving instruction!"

"DURING class, he wastes a Ton of time talking to his wife, interrupting class, and spending time with kids and babysitting during class. Instructor claims he is a big shot teacher that makes students pro drivers after one session. After she got out, my girlfriend almost crashed due to insufficient teachings. Takes too many personal phone calls during class. 1 hour of just behind the wheel driving with MINIMAL teachings. Gives students a packet with answers already written. Went over a few unrelated laws in class to waste time. Talks about his personal life too much, very disturbing details. Will charge you $60 an hour to drive behind the wheel with him after you realize you need better schooling because he couldn't do a good job. Also, he runs a daycare in the same house, and might have several code violations."
