Mr. Domingo was an awesome instructor. While I have my license, I'm TERRIBLE on the highway and needed a patient experienced instructor to help me get over my fears. Friends have tried in the past, but only heightened my anxiety. Domingo structured a program just for me so that I was gradually introduced to the highway. He took into account my comfort level and slowly increasing the level of challenge so I wasn't just thrusted into the speeding lane on I-95. From my first phone call through my last lesson, he was great...always on time...and consistent. I loved that he walks you through everything; and as a law enforcement officer, he shares with you additional tidbits about road safety that you will not see in books - like the importance of how to handle heavy rainstorms, black ice, and snow while driving on the highway. It's not just about driving slow, but strategically picking the right lane; how to handle speedsters around you; and what to do if your car hydroplanes/gets out of control. I am spreading the word and STRONGLY recommend you call him! He's great! Read Less

I have taken classes with Domingo from School of Wheels. First of all, unlike other money minting driving schools, this school actually wants you to learn how to drive well in Boston. You may find it a little tough in the beginning but you get a good practice in and around west roxbury area, which is clearly a driving mess in Boston. Second, you get undivided attention of the instructor and a good prep session for the road test. Third, they have broad law enforcement experience that helps you understand best driving practices. Overall, totally worth it because you don't want to just pass a road test, you want to drive safely too. Read Less

School of Wheels, West Roxbury is a great school to learn the right set of instructions for driving. My driving instructor Mr. Monteiro had been helpful all throughout the process. He clearly told me my mistakes during the classes which helped me focus on right areas and clear my road test in one go. Unlike many other schools, I was always instructed by a single instructor all throughout. Also, Noteworthy to point that Mr. Monteiro accompanied me for the full 3 hours on the day of the road test and gave me the final tips before the test. This was really instrumental in facing the road test confidently and clear it in one go. Thanks School of Wheels!!! Read Less

Do not listen to the only two negative reviews! Don't let the lack of reviews fool you this driving school is the best I have ever gone to! Sadly I wasted time at ADP auto and City auto school who like throwing random teachers and just can't teach you the basics to succeed! All they care about is getting your money and you get the blame for failing! School of Wheels is different Domingo Monteiro truly cares in fact I have been working with him for months my schedule and weather etc has been affecting us from being done but I have without a doubt I will past this road test! I have learned so much I simply didn't prior! Go to school of wheels he is not a scam and with this school I'm positive this time I will pass! When I discovered this school it was perfect ratings I feel the two negative reviews are competition driving schools or people who know those other schools owners! This man knows the law and is apart of it no worries folks go the school of wheels ! Read Less

Domingo Monterio was supposed to take me out 6-8 times before my test, he ended up coming ONCE!!! and then took me for my test.When we reached the test location, he realized he forgot the papers required for the actual test. At which point we drove to his house, and then back to the location. I did pass, but no thanks to him! He always had an excuse for why he couldn't make it. And when I asked for a refund for a part of the amount ( I PAID HIM IN FULL, IN ADVANCE), he told me he would give me the money on Friday. It's since been a few months, and of course he won't respond to any of my texts! So save your time and money, and find another driving school. Read Less

This place is a scam. My friend had met with the driving instructor to set up appointments. His first appointment with her, he never showed. When trying to contact him, Domingo Monterio always has an excuse as to why he can't not keep his appointments that he has made. My friend tried to get a refund since he is clearly unprofessional, he keeps dodging her calls and making excuses as to why he can not meet up to give her a refund. He claims he is a police officer to get people to feel comfortable about using his service...buyer beware!!! Read Less

My daughter took driving lessons at the School of Wheels and her instructor was awesome. She had previously had some lessons at another driving school but still wasn't prepared to be a safe driver and for the road test. And after a couple lessons she already learned a lot more and felt comfortable because he is really patient. And she can finally parallel park! If you want your teenager to learn how to drive go to School of Wheels! Read Less

School of Wheels in West Roxbury is different than any other Driving School. They are clean, efficient, and high tech. Their instructors are amazingly qualified (my Instructor, Domingo, has many years of experience in law enforcement). Their classroom is CLEAN and COMFORTABLE! I found them very flexible for my busy schedule (they will pick you up for your lesson if that's what you need). I called MANY driving schools before selecting this one. I checked many reviews. I read many of the Yelp reviews for other driving schools first, and saw what I DIDN'T want in a school. If you have had difficulty learning to drive, or have special needs, you will find their professional approach will get you your license. For those that need extra help, they have amazing Augmented Reality Driving Simulators, something that I never saw at any other driving school. I found their prices to be very competitive, and the actual driving lessons covered every step needed to pass the Road Test. They took all the stress and worry out of getting a licence. "Thank you" School of Wheels"! Read Less
