Is Yamato Driving School licensed by the California DMV to offer driver training courses?

I've been told that either of my parents can supervise my driver training, so I don't have to attend a Los Angeles California driving school like Yamato Driving School to fulfill my driver training requirement. Do you know if that's true or not?
You will need to contact the California DMV or a state-approved driver training school like Yamato Driving School to find out.  Some states do allow parent-taught driving, but many states do not.
What if I don't know how to drive a vehicle with a stick-shift? Does Yamato Driving School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll allow me train with?

Can I apply for my California learner's permit once I turn 14?
