Kansai area driving English-language driving school recommendations?

As the title says. I'm on PR but my language ability isn't to the level that I could take the driving courses in Japanese. I've got a US license (Illinois) that just expired, and I won't be able to get back before the grace period expires to renew it so I figure just getting a Japanese license is a better bet. I'm looking for one of the intensive/"boot camp" style courses that I can take sometime next winter (uni teacher, Jan-March off).

Any recommendations on where to go, or more importantly where not to go? I've googled and there seem to be a few schools in Wakayama and Kobe. I'm on the Keihan line so Kyoto or Osaka would be a tad easier, but I do have the time for one of the deals that includes a hotel if necessary. TIA.
