Private Driving Lessons

Driving lessons are done in 2-hour blocks and begin with the basics so that the instructor can develop a good understanding of each student’s experience, skill, knowledge and confidence. As lessons progress, the instructor will make sure that each core skill is learned before building upon it. Lessons will cover accelerating, braking, turning and parking maneuvers before graduating to lane choice, speed management, urban and rural driving, driving on hills, highway driving and mock road tests (if purchased).

    “Tyler S. The instructor , did not want to communicate why he would not let me in his class , when I communicated before I had issues I asked for him to politely let me in before it was 8:00, I know policy rules if not the name of the zoom acc u can’t join , I understand that I had my last name , it was running down close to 8 I ask to see if he can still let me in , he says no. I tell him you know the time is strict on what time you come in , I told him I’ll get it situated if I had more time. Completely ignored me. I had class with him before and a young lady had issues with hers and he kindly let her in until she fixed the issues on her Chromebook.
