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.

Spending an entire day in a classroom for traffic school instead of knocking it out online might…read moreseem like a tough choice, but Rocky made it well worth it. 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!

I hadn't planned on getting my real estate sales person license as I was already licensed as an…read moreMLO. But when COVID stay at home precautions were in place in 2020, I decided to go for it and take my coursework to get my RE license. The on-line coursework of Principles, Practices, & Finance were well-designed for us to learn, with interactive zoom classes. Angela So was a terrific instructor and I know I retained a lot of the information from her classes because I felt good even a year later when I finally got my state exam date in April 2021. Already working in the industry doing mortgage loans, I felt overwhelmed as my test date approached since I could only dedicate a small amount of time to studying. I decided to take the crash course and also opted for the recorded videos and state exam prep. The videos with Ian Medina really helped me integrate concepts in a memorable way. I'm glad I was able to view all of these and also do the practice exams prior to my crash course weekend. Scheduling the crash course the weekend before my test date did help me feel more confident going in. Clarissa Cortez was an amazing instructor who kept us all engaged during the weekend crash course. She was able to integrate real world examples that helped us remember concepts. Feedback from fellow students who had taken the exam also gave a good perspective of what to expect on exam day. Passing my exam on my first attempt was a great feeling and I am now able to start helping build the real estate side under my brokerage, West Gold Inc. Thank you CA Realty Training, Angela So, Ian Medina, and Clarissa Cortez for making my real estate educational experience amazing!

The classes were taught at Keller Williams modern offices in Downtown Burlingame. My awesome instructor Clarissa Cortez was so passionate about real estate and teaching!

Today, I passed the state salesperson exam on my first try. Normally I hear there is only a 40% pass rate. Thank you Clarissa!

I graduated from this school in September 2025 and was promised assistance with externship…read moreplacement. After waiting several months, I was finally contacted about an externship opportunity in South San Francisco. I explained that I had already relocated to Fairfield and requested placement closer to where I currently live. Shortly afterward, the school owner called me again regarding the review I had made about my experience. During the conversation, she stated that she did not appreciate my comments and that another staff member had informed her about them. The tone of the call felt confrontational and unprofessional. When I explained that my REVIEW reflected my personal experience and that I was not the only student who had expressed similar concerns, I felt dismissed and was told, "I am talking about you!." As a student, I believe feedback whether positive or negative, should be received professionally. My comments were based on my experience with the lengthy delay in securing an externship placement after graduation. I expected a constructive discussion rather than feeling criticized for sharing my honest experience.

My son and I just got home from his first driving lesson with Derrick from Apex Driving School, and…read moreI truly can't say enough good things about our experience. My son has low vision and, with special bioptic glasses, is able to obtain a driver's license in California. Because of Derrick's expertise with bioptic drivers, making the hour-long drive to Burlingame was absolutely worth it. My son felt understandably nervous at first, but Derrick immediately put him at ease. He allowed me to sit in the back and observe the lesson, which meant a great deal to me as a parent. Derrick is calm, well-spoken, kind, and an exceptionally gifted teacher. He was incredibly thorough and thoughtful in every part of the lesson. What stood out to me most was his awareness and advocacy. Without anyone saying a word, Derrick recognized that my son would need an enlarged version of a worksheet and offered the accommodation proactively. As a mom who has spent years advocating for her child, that moment truly touched me. I felt seen, understood, and completely confident that Derrick genuinely understands the needs of visually impaired drivers. Beyond his technical skill, Derrick knows how to encourage and build confidence. He cheered my son on and helped him feel capable and excited about driving. Derrick is a true class act. I am beyond grateful we found him, and we are very much looking forward to the next two sessions. My son is excited to practice everything he learned today, which says it all.

So I don't work with them but I was behind an Apex driving school car which was being driven by an…read moreinstructor. The worse driver ever. He was tailgating the car in front of him and swerving around like crazy till that car pulled to the side and let him through. After that we were side by side in a 2 lane street and I got to the stop sign before him , BUT she didn't slow down and basically wanted to beat me at the stop sign . My car is way faster than his so that didn't happen. There are a lot of shitty drivers out there but when a driving school instructor drives like a maniac, you clearly don't want him teaching anyone anything . I wish I had take a pic of the license plate so that it was evident who it was.

My favorite outdoor pool in the peninsula!…read more I've been going to Burlingame Aquatics for many years now - I use to even swim competitively! The pool operates as both short (25 yards) and long course (50 meters) depending on the day and time. If it is short course, there are about 20 lanes, but if it is long course, it is usually less lanes due to classes/ other programs being held at BAC. I've dropped into lap swim ($9) but I started to opt in for their 10 day pass which is $85 ($5 savings). I also just learned there is a monthly unlimited pass for $75 which is a great deal if you do plan to come in more than 10x a month. Check out their website for hours and if there will be less lanes due to classes. I love going during the day since you'll get a nice tan afterwards!

There ought to be at least two. We go there to swim, not as prison inmates; we shouldn't be forced to change in an open area or a toilet stall. In my opinion, this is undignified.

Let me start off by saying that Lana and the Rainbow chefs crew did an outstanding job with…read moreaccommodating my husband, Daniel, and I during the few months of planning and prepping for our wedding this past July 2022. Daniel and I started talking about and planning our wedding late February 2022. And we were recommended to reach out to Lana and her company Rainbow Chefs for the catering. Daniel and I were originally planning for a cocktail wedding, as opposed to a traditional sit down dinner. We were madly sending out inquiries to different food catering companies, food trucks, restaurants, etc., with no hope in regards to the insanely expensive prices for the amount of people we were expecting, about 200+. Finally, Daniel's manager suggested that we reach out to Lana. We scheduled a zoom meeting with her, and had an unforgettable first impression of her and her plan for our last minute wedding. She broke down every detail we needed to be aware of and prepared for, including prices, and even discussed different options her company could offer to us. It was not easy to plan a wedding with 200+ guest invitations, in 4-5 months, but thankfully we were lucky enough that Lana and her crew were available for our wedding date and were able to help us throughout the process. During the entire planning time, Lana diligently checked in on both Daniel and I, sometimes individually, making sure tasks were being done and loose ends were being tied in time for our big day. Not only was Lana on top of us daily/weekly regarding our wedding planning, but she was also conscientious toward our mental health and instilled lots of important advice. About a week before our wedding day, Lana, Kate and Viana came to the venue, along with our other vendors, to have an overall tour of the venue, to make sure they knew where to maneuver the food tables, the kitchen staff, the bar situation, etc. On the day of the wedding, Lana was exceptional! Her and the Rainbow Chefs crew made sure our guests were well taken care of. I got compliments from our family and friends about how great the staff was, so that definitely meant alot. Throughout the night, along with our wedding planner, Lana was making sure that Daniel and I ate, that we were aware of things she and her crew were doing, etc. They definitely helped ease some of our planning and event stresses. The communication, diligence and honesty that Lana and Rainbow Chefs presented to us throughout the entire planning and event process was one that we absolutely recommend to anyone who is planning a wedding or large event/party!!

Very questionable communication from the Rainbow Chefs Update- After three painful weeks, I have finally received the e-recipes that were promised to us in August, 2021. During the past three weeks, Lana from Rainbow chefs kept on promising that she will send the recipes to me without providing a date. I had to follow up with her multiples time to get an update. Along the way Lana kept on saying that Rainbow chefs went above and beyond to create the recipes for our camp and the recipes are supposed to be an "extra effort" for our camp, however, this was actually advertised to us before we signed the contract. I felt really annoyed that one dared to describe something that's 11 months late as "extra effort". In addition, the first version I received was full of typos/formatting errors and missing TWO dishes. Lana told me those were missing because she lost the recipe files--but according to her that everything was custom made for our camp so she had to write the recipes from scratch? If she had the "files" all this time why not just send to me? To conclude, lots of inconsistent information from Rainbow chefs. I would advise everyone to think twice before choosing to work with Rainbow chefs
