This is a great place to learn to drive! I have come along way in driving successfully and safely. The teacher did a great job at explaining and educating us students in doing the right thing to drive. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Forth time teaching a kid to drive, first time in Texas. After doing an online school for the classroom hours and parent directed for the road lessons, I was anxious about making an appointment with DPS. I have had a few unpleasant experiences with getting my older kids their driver's licenses and, with the Texas DPS. So, I decided to use Silverlake Driving School for my daughter's road test. Silverlake was amazing!

They were very clear upfront what forms we needed and they checked over each one to make sure that they were filled out correctly. My daughter was very comfortable with the instructor. She gave my daughter clear instructions and my daughter passed! The subsequent trip to DPS was the easiest trip I have ever made. Thank you Silverlake Driving School!

I never give out bad reviews. I'm sure they have amazing staff here, however it's almost IMPOSSIBLE to get anyone on the phone or to return emails to simply book my teen to finish her driving credits. They say in the contract we only have a two month deadline after they've completed and graduated the bookwork/classroom credits and even gotten a permit issued from the DMV, however how can a parent book their student for the remainder classes with their driving instructors if they don't communicate, answer their phones or even respond back to the parents via email?

My daughter is about to loose her entire summers efforts because of this school. They took the money for the course but won't complete their side of the deal. I've sent numerous emails now. I'm super frustrated and wouldn't recommend this place at all for beginner drivers looking to get their drivers licenses.

The wait before hand didn't take long at all and they were patient with me and my questions. The woman who tested with me was very charismatic and sweet but straight to the point. During the test she was very sweet and was soft voiced on directions and even made small talk to calm my nerves. All around I didn't feel nervous and the ride went smoothly! I wish I had gotten her name cause she was such a sweetheart to ride with!

This is my 2nd bad experience with this driving school. No problem With the teacher and owner but I was very rudely asked by my driving instructor if I have been vaccinated witch goes against my hippa rights. The driving instructor also included during the drive that you HAVE to stop at a stop sign when you are turning right (right on red) witch doesn't fall into place for stop signs. you have to stop at a stop sign no matter what. This is my 2nd bad experience and cannot wait to get done with my last drives.

Critical:Communication, Professionalism, Quality Absolutely Horrific! Don't waste your time or money. SCAM FRAUDULENT.Never could get an appointment for a skills test. Now learners permit expired and will have to take another driving course. Negative stars less than zero.

Silverlake driving school was more then helpful when it came time for my son to get his driver's license. Every step of the way from getting his learning permit to his drive times and all the way to doing his driving test, they were there to help and assist the entire way. The staff was very knowledgeable on the entire process as the manager and teacher there used to work at DPS.

Most other driving schools we looked at didn't offer everything this school offered and that's what drove us to sign up for this one. Our son is rather tall and they seem to have quite a great selection of cars that accommodated him. When it comes time for our daughter we will happily choose this driving school again!

Excellent place to go to if you want to pass your road test on the first time. The instructor elderly and friendly, she will help you pass to the best of her ability. Awareness, is everything. Work on yielding to ongoing traffic. DON'T GO UNTIL ITS A 100% FREE - OR ELSE YOU'LL FAIL. Braking is also key don't start breaking when you feel like it brake when you see the stop light or sign.

Speed up when its green. Don't be nervous. Just master the yield and braking, awareness, awareness, awareness. Constantly ask yourself WHO IS BESIDE YOU?- and check using all three mirrors If you can become so good to know always know who's around you and to TURN YOUR HEAD when doing a lane change- you'll be fine. Another recommendation is a backup camera for parallel parking.

However she's not too strict on it AS LONG AS YOU DON'T HIT THE POLES. Indicate going and indicate coming out to receive 2 points(out of 9). If you cant then just try and park your car. If you can master those things- you'll do great.:)

Critical:Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value Would give 0 stars if possible. Terrible owners. Establishment is absolutely filthy. Seen the owners and teachers drive. Not up to modern day standards. 15/10 would not recommend. Take a few extra minutes to drive to the next driving school a town over. Pitiful.

Great school! Took 6 hour adult class. I learned so much and did GREAT on my permit test. And took my behind the wheel road test with them the next day! Very knowledgeable since the director use to work at DPS on required documents needed and very patient and very good at communicating. Passed my permit test and Behind the wheel road test in one try. So easy to schedule a class or test with them I highly recommend this school!
