Debra is a fantastic driving instructor and a genuinely kind person. She worked with both of our children, and they each said they learned a great deal and now feel much more comfortable and confident behind the wheel. One thing we especially appreciated was how she took them to practice around the DMV area, which made a big difference in their readiness. Debra is also an excellent communicator—I really valued the appointment reminders and the courtesy messages letting us know when she was on her way.

Debra is an outstanding driving instructor, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her support. Thanks to her guidance, my son passed his driving test on the first try!
What truly sets Debra apart is her communication and dedication. After each lesson, she provides a detailed evaluation, which helped me stay informed about my son’s progress and what he needed to improve—especially on days when I didn’t get a chance to speak with her in person. She is also very responsive and available via text whenever I have questions, which gave me peace of mind throughout the process.
Debra goes above and beyond by keeping parents informed before, during, and after each lesson. She is kind and patient, yet she knows how to challenge her students in a way that helps them grow into confident, safe drivers. It’s clear that she truly cares about her students and their success—not just as drivers, but as individuals.
She’s not only a great instructor, but also a genuinely good person. I highly recommend Debra to any family looking for a driving instructor who is skilled, supportive, and deeply committed.

Passed my test on the first try. Debra teaches extremely well in the private lessons I took and is especially accommodating for more closed-off kids like I am. Thank you very much! ✅️

My ride was smooth with Pedro, Gail and Debra guiding me with a complete idea of where they were taking me and it became obvious it had been well thought of in advance. Very professional, and - of course - I’m an excellent driver!

Absolutely love these guys! 10/10! Passed my drivers test with a 93. Deborah is a really good instructor who encouraged me to be confident in my driving and, Frankie is a really good drivers ED teacher with some good stories to tell. I've had quite a few of the instructors here (though I did many of my lessons with Deborah, I've also done lessons with Zachary, Simone, and Valeria.) and I've had positive experiences with all of them! All really swell folk. 🫶

I took a lesson with Pedro, Margaret and Debra and I thought it was an amazing experience. They taught me to be confident and gave me reassurance in my driving skills. They made me feel more comfortable behind the wheel and I now feel prepared to take my test.

We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible experience our daughter had with this driving school. After three years of holding her permit and feeling unsure about taking the next step, the instructors truly made all the difference.
A big thank you to David and Roy for their patience, professionalism, and encouragement. They both played an important role in helping our daughter build confidence behind the wheel and feel more comfortable navigating different driving situations.
A very special shout-out goes to Debra—she is truly exceptional. Debra is the reason our daughter finally felt ready to get her driver’s license. She has a perfect balance of kindness and directness, giving clear instructions while also making students feel supported. Her positive feedback helped our daughter recognize that she is a cautious, capable driver, and that realization gave her the confidence she needed to take this big step into adulthood.
We are so thankful for the care, encouragement, and expertise this team provided. Highly recommend this driving school to any family looking to support their teen driver!

Nice people and a great driving school, they teach you in the car at the exact moment and give you feedback that you can use to improve your driving.
