Another 5 star review. Used John to teach my son this time. He taught my daughter a few years ago and it was time for my teen to learn. John was very patient and offered great knowledge and tips that I couldn't have known to teach. It is always best to have professionals provide these type of schooling.

Due to the pandemic, scheduling with DMV was difficult and my teen needed to pass this time as his permit was about to expire. Passed at first try!

Would not hesitate to recommend John to any new drivers wanting to learn the right way and pass their DMV test.

A great teacher is priceless. Thanks to John, I learned to drive calmly and mindfully. I've had many driving instructors before I found John. And being in education myself, I know a great teacher when I meet one.

John has a unique approach to teach that blends lightheartedness (which helps ease the nerves) and instills confidence in his students. He is patient, explains everything clearly and such a joy to learn from.

He taught me to drive not just to pass a test, but more importantly to prepare me for various road conditions around the city and beyond.

If you want to become a good driver, look no further and take lessons with John!
