Awful human being!!…read more I paid $250 for driving lessons only to find out my younger brother was not eligible to get a driver's license based on his immigration status at the time. I immediately reached out to Shahriar Assi, the owner, and asked for a refund. But he wouldn't refund the money, even though my brother did not take a single lesson with him. I explained I had just gotten laid off and really needed the money, but every time I called him, he'd pretend he was busy and ask me to call him in the future. Eventually he refunded $100 and but that was after so many calls and after literally begging him to do the right thing... Edit: Responding to owner - yes 1000% sure it was you. I have your contact info and detail in my phone. You don't remember asking me to come to the Starbucks in Burlingame and wrote me a check for $100? You said you sympathize with the Palestinian cause and were giving me a refund when normally there is no refunds. You had me drive to Burlingame only to to be handed a check for $100 instead of the full $250. Shame on you!

I wanted him to learn to drive and gain independence. My friend who used Strive Driving School for her son recommended we try Strive.

We're extremely happy and relieved. Thank you, Strive.

The coursework is funny in a corny/cheesy way but Rocky is a super nice guy and you do end up learning a lot! The time goes by quickly and you are actually learning/remembering so much stuff! I told everyone to go here! CA is trying to incentivize people to go online/making it hard for traffic schools to run in person, but seriously if you want people to actually learn something, be engaged, and hear other stories of why people also were at traffic school, would think that's way more valuable/preventative. I've remembered so much about laws and traffic rules over the years because of this course.

Unlike the tedious, self-guided online courses, this class was interactive, engaging, and even enjoyable. Originally, I was skeptical sacrificing a Saturday but I learned a lot and I am not good at taking tests on my own at home. Rocky kept us involved with real-world examples, humor, and a teaching style that actually made the material stick. If you have to go through traffic school, this is the best way to do it--learning from an instructor who brings the subject to life, rather than just clicking through a screen for hours. I highly recommend him to anyone! Thank you Rocky!

He only did like 10 hours of lessons with Mr. Lee and i couldn't believe how much he improved. As a parent i was really worried about finding someone who could actually work with a teenager you know how they can be lol. But Mr. Lee was super patient with my son the whole time, never got frustrated or anything. My son actually liked going to his lessons which is saying a lot haha. He teaches you in a way that's really easy to understand and my son said he always felt comfortable and knew what to do. The tips and techniques he showed him really worked because he remembered them during the actual test! Honestly if you have a teenager who needs to learn how to drive just go with Mr. Lee. I would 100% recommend him to any parent. So worth it!!
