Worst experience ever .. the women who cannot talk to her customers properly .. every time I call them she is very rude.. her daughter is nice and friendly .. so I will never recommend this to anyone .

Benny Moreno Valverde

Best driving school in all yonkers

Betsy Loza

My daughter had the best experience in this school. The teachers are hard working and informative. On my daughters first road test she passed thanks to Perla. I will bring my 15 year old when it’s her time to drive. I recommend this school to anyone who is ready to get a license.

This driving school is a scam. I paid for 5 lessons and road test but they did not take me to my road test because they were too busy with other students. I had to hire another instructor to take me. Did not even get a refund. They don't keep their appointments. They cancel the last minute or change the schedule when they want to. Or even worse they send another instructor with a different car to teach you. So that's not good because I was already used to driving the other car. And the new teacher kept bad mouthing the previous instructor. He even said I'm gonna fail my driving test. Way to go in bringing down the confidence of a beginner. Horrible experience. I chose this driving school because of the reviews but I regret believing them. It's not true. They are a bunch of liars.. Don't trust them!

Horrible

I passed with this school! My instructor was every encouraging and seemed to really care about me passing. I did not get that with my last driving school. She really taught me a lot and I thank her!

Armando Rivera

Very friendly staff, patient instructor. Will be sending my grandkids.

Its at a terrrible location, the instructors vary with every class..no matter how many classes you take, nobody is really concerned about making you pass the road test. I wasted a lot of time trying to park during the whole time but was never taught about road awareness and other things that you need to pass the road test. Overall, i am very disappointed and i wish i had spent a little more money and taken classes somewhere else

Midiam Diaz

Overall I give it to Alma she has been very patient and she actually gave me pointers on driving. I blame myself for not passing the exam because of my nerves but I give this place credit for giving me the confidence I needed on driving.

Grace Manaog

I don't know how this woman is teaching people how to drive! She yelled at me all the time... Plus she told me the lessons were $38.00 then when she showed up she charged me $50.00! This was a bad experience coming here.

Lucy Robinson

Disgusting! Very bad customer service I waste my money!

Edwin Gonzalez

nicole teos

All they do is yell

Daniel Ramirez

Instructors are rude and think they are something great! The car I was using was old and beat up shape.. I had a hard time keeping clam on our driving lessons..

Onix Fadhel

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! took a package with this school cause it was a short transportation to travel to but never again the staff is rude and dont care if you pass or not they forget to pick you up at times cancel classes last minute and also their cars are in horrible and unsafe conditions and o wait it gets better.... just took my road test and they switched the car on me right before the test giving me no heads up so i had to take the road test with a car i have NEVER driven before OMG im beyond pissed off!!! (it was the same model but breaks were not as good ) so since it was the same model i still decided to take the test and ofcourse failed my test because the brakes were not good and they said that i was driving unsafe. im going to a much better school who has proper working cars this weekend with better ratings passing percentage and people who actually care about people passing the road test and not all about the money! I should have read reviews before going to PERLAS!!

Ami Momaiya

So far I have taken like 15 classes with them. Still I can't turn well or do the parking with out hitting the curb. Primarily because I am nervous about driving so it takes me longer and because I dont feel like they are preparing me well. At first I thought I was the problem but after reading the comments and hearing about where my friends went through I know its them. The woman was not a good teacher!

Johanna Chica

Let me start off by saying I had a bad experience with another driving school, so I decided to take a chance with Perlas. They are so helpful and accommodated me so close to my road test. She gave great tips on my driving and I passed the test on the first try! Thank you so much!

Francesca Guarriello

In my opinion i feel the instructors are very helpful and nice. Before i started taking classes with them i drove with my family members and i always struggled with parallel parking. My instructor helped me and now i can parallel park pretty well. When i first started driving i was extremely nervous but they made me feel comfortable behind the wheel and now i am not nervous anymore and feel i will be able to pass my road test. All i can say is thank you to them for preparing me .

Geraldin Reyes

The receptionist was very nice and friendly, but the person that gave me the lesson was a little bit moody sometimes.

Yobelkis Castillo

(Translated by Google) Very bad experience. Pay for my quote Road test and they confirmed date and time and then days of the appointment call me I do not have an appointment. They made me waste my time. Unprofessionalism. (Original) Muy mala experiencia. Pague por mi cita del Road test y me confirmaron dia y hora y luego a dias de la cita me llaman que no tengo cita. Me hicieron perder mi tiempo. Falta de profesionalidad.

Geovany Velasquez

Crazy woman had an attitude with me... Many times she would not explain me in the right way how to perfect my turns. I failed here 3 times because something or the other. Lessons were not given on a timely manner. Never again coming here... It's a scam business they are running.. Very sad I wasted my money on this place.

Elibeth Urena

The receptionist is very rude and sarcastic but the instructors are very respectful and I like how Carlos encourages me and I like driving with him.

Jason Jones

Worse experience ever wish I cud give no stars... I paid $95 to use there car for my road test the car was so old,the brakes where delayed.the petal was to the floor and still not stopping..I failed my test because of this old car.when I went back to the office to speak with the rude manager her first words where take me to small claims court.I let her know I wasn't leaving with out my money asked to speak to the owner she looked at me and laughed and told me they'll be back in 3 moths as if this is funny.she ended up calling the cops on me because I wasn't leaving with out my money,when the cops arrive this crazy lady told them I was treating her name she fear for her safety.. thank god the cops seen thru her b.s.. the end result was she decided to give me a check for only half of my money in which I'm gartful I got anything back...

My mistake for not reading the reviews here and on yelp. I had the same experience as the rest of these people who reviewed. They never keep their appointments and I was actually lied to that I was told my appointments were being cancelled and rescheduled when in fact I was not. "Darlene" who makes the appointments does not seem to be writing them down because when you show up they look at you dazed and confused like oh you had an appointment today?! Not a way to run business. They need better management because Alma does not know how to run the place. She also does not have any manners on how to talk to people. You are not supposed to lie and then when you get caught simply say "lets just move forward". This is not a joke. People have jobs and work around their schedule to make appointments and you cannot just cancel because you have to get you hair and nails done. Please people take these reviews seriously and try other schools. To much hassle with this one.

Kathyrine Lopez

horrible instructors, they just want your money not to teach you how to drive.

LEONID RUSANOV

Nice school ! They helped me with my road test ! I just got my driven license, Carlos was my instructor, thank you so much for teaching me

(Translated by Google) Soul owner of Pearl Driving School. Even if I call billions and billions of times on my cell phone and chase Benny and beg him again, he doesn't come back to you because you stole his citizenship from his house and his cell phone and I'm not going to mention that you infected him, I throw you away as the garbage you are. He is afraid of you because you are a woman, I am not. If you continue harassing we will go to the police, court and where necessary. (Original) Alma dueña de Perla Driving School. Aunque llame billones y billones de veces por celular y persiga a Benny y le ruegue otro tanto no regresa contigo porque le ROBASTE su ciudadanía de su casa y su celular y no voy a mencionar de que lo contagiaste, te boto como la basura que eres. El te tiene miedo por que eres mujer yo no. Si sigue acosando vamos a ir a la policia, corte y donde sea necesario.

Pass my road test yesterday! I had a good experience with this driving school. I took a package and was very statisfied with my instructor. She was extremely patient and encouraging. I was so nervous at the beginning but she help me overcome my fears w/ other rude drivers on the road. At the start I had a huge problem w/ turns. Parallel parking was also another struggle of mine, but the techniques I was given helped me sooooo much. Thank you Perla!

Took driving course excellent instructor

Melissa DeGrandi

I had a great experience at this driving school and overall please with the helpful skills learn from my driver instructor. The office staff was never a problem and i am satisfied with their teachings. My instructor was always on time when it came down to the road lessons and she was very courteous and understanding when explaining the road concepts of right from wrongs driving habits. I would recommend this school for those who have no or little experience. I had a female instructor and she was always polite, neat and presentable. The vehicle wasn't messy, very clean. She was understanding when I was in doubt and always had the answered along with the explanation. She help me realize the a logics and concepts behind the road signs, lane markings, turn, stop sign, caution with pedestrians, one way and two way roads, traffic, lane change..etc. Thanks to the school, i am now a license driver. =] Yay!

No sense of customer service over the phone. I’m surprised they have not gone out of business.

Worst driving school in Yonkers! Do not waste your money here. The instructor alma is a nasty person, during my class she would stop by her office for 10 min to do her hair make up, and waste 15 min of my paid time. Nasty place nasty owner. Overall very bad experience.
