Alamo Driving School

I picked Alamo Driving School based on its Unilocal reviews. I didn’t need too much tutoring, just a brief explanation of rules in MN and what to pay attention to during the road test. I give 1 star to their office staff and responsiveness and 5 star to my instructor, Connie.
I bought my first class online and called them to schedule. They told me they’d call me back and no one did. I called the next day and got the same response, again no one called me. I went to their office 2 days later and they told me they were on holiday as a reason why nobody returned my calls. If I had been told that they’d be out of office and I had to wait a couple of days, that’d be fine. But they kept telling me they’d return my calls and never did. Similar thing happened with scheduling the road test as well. I called, either no one answered or I was told I will be called back. I had to send a nasty message to finally receive a call and get my test scheduled.
On the other hand, my instructor Connie was awesome. She was encouraging and always explaining what to pay attention to during driving. On the exam site, she went over a couple of things we should be careful about. I got my license after the exam.
In terms of learning how to drive, it’s a good place, if you want to deal with the office staff.

I’d always been a very nervous driver and nothing seemed to help. I’d taken similar services and only found myself feeling ripped off and frustrated. That all changed when I found Alamo Driving School.
Mohammed was able to ease my apprehension about driving after one lesson. He has an uncanny ability to know exactly what’s holding you back as a driver and give you the tools to fix it yourself. He actually seems to believe in his students and pushes them to succeed.
I’m now a licensed driver thanks to Alamo Driving School and I’ll always remember the driving tips I’ve picked up from this place.
Recommended: Buy the 6 hours behind the wheel and have them drop you off for your drivers test. This worked out amazingly for me and I’ve heard the same from everyone else I know who took Alamo Driving School.

NEVER GO TO THIS DRIVING SCHOOL!!! I paid online and tried to call them to schedule my class for three days but no one answered the phone. I left the message but still no one call me back. Then I contact my credit card company to get my money back. Almost a month later, they call me and complain of me! And the guy called me said it was summer time and they are all outside and I should go to their office to find them. U call that customer service???

They teach you to drive, passing the test is just a side effect!
Both instructors I worked with lived upto the claims and they indeed love their nervous students! I was a new driver and didn’t have a car to practice, they were patient enough with me and gave immediate constructive feedback. I could actually experience my progress after every lesson I took.
A big big thanks to Arron, he is an awesome teacher. And also to Mohammad. Everyone I interacted with is throughly professional and know thier job very well.

I took 4 classes with Alamo Driving School to prepare for my second try in the driving test. Aaron was the best driving teacher I ever had (and I had a few). I was quite nervous before starting the lessons as I already failed the first driving test (I trained with another school). Not only did Aaron explain every little details on how to drive safely and correctly, he was also very supportive and helped me become a confident driver. He has a great balance of strictness and fun in his teaching, which is awesome. I eventually passed the test, and I feel ready to take the road.
I would recommend this school for everyone who wants to learn how to drive, and make sure to ask for Aaron as your teacher. You wont regret it.

First of all I would like to completely thank Mohammed for his tips and 100% commitment towards work. He is very patient/​calm and supporting. I am not trained driver and had not driven earlier but with training from Alamo driving school I could clear my test at first attempt.
Staff is very cordial and it was great to learn driving from this school. It gives you 100% return of the money invested. Although you have complete hands on the driving– It is always good to take a session from this driving school to really know the do’s and don’ts for the actual driving test.

Before moving to minnesota, i tried to get my license in chicago where my experience was terrible. I ended up with a «worst ever driving instructor», who just exploited my nervousness in driving where he just made money. It was so bad that he never encouraged me and for three days he made me to practice on a same street. Days went by, he gave me many excuses and never allowed me to take my road test (since i was depending on his car).After three weeks, i forced him to take me for the road test since i was moving to MN in a day or two, even in that moment he asked me not to take and said me «u will fail if u take your test today» :(At last, i left chicago with no license.
After moving in here to MN, i was quite skeptical in choosing the Driving school. But, guess what!!! I was soooo lucky that i landed up with Alamo driving school

«Choosing Alamo driving school is the best ever decision which i took in my life.»
I took just 6hrs of lessons which includes road test too. Just two days of class and two hours before my road test,” I GOT MY LICENSE” in the very first attempt.
My instructor was Mr.Mohamed. He made me feel calm even though I was nervous and felt like the car was in control. He cared about making me into a good driver rather than only caring about passing the driver’s license or earning money. The first day he took me to the highway, second day he taught me 90 degree parking and parallel parking with ease. I was surprised, is it me doing it? yesssss… but it was just because of him. He teaches you in the best, easiest, and fastest way possible. Mr Mohamed is the best instructor i ever had, he is awesome.
The staff is very knowledgeable, Mohamed and Mercedes helped me feel very comfortable behind wheels. I would highly recommend Alamo Driving School to everyone. So if you want to get a driver’s license, learn how to drive safely, save time, and save money, Alamo Driving School is your best choice — I highly recommend it. Thank you very much Mr.Mohamed.

i had driven very little before. no significant driving experience i would say… i was recommended Alamo driving school by 2 of my colleagues from Nepal who got their road test cleared first attempts and so was my story. i took 3 lesson of 2 hours each and road test and passed first attempts. very professional. hands on… experience…flexible schedules. best thing about was Mohammed did not give lessons just to pass the road test but also was meticulous and thorough about driving in general… i would certainly recommend him. thanks Alamo driving school.
