"National Driving School, putting new drivers behind the wheel with confidence and skill"

Learning to drive as a teenager and those new to America could be very exciting as well as scary. We at National Driving School understand these feelings and will work hard to help our students overcome their fears of driving, build self-confidence and make learning to drive comfortable and fun.

It may interest our prospective student to know our training method, for that reason, I want to state here that our driver education training is SAFETY based, MANEUVER specific, and SKILL focused. What does that mean? It means, we teach our students every aspect of driving safety, why? because we are fully aware that whatever we teach them now will form the foundation of their lifetime of safe driving habit and experience.

In maneuver specific, we work with each student's area of weaknesses to make sure they can perform each mandatory maneuvers correctly and confidently by drilling them over and over to make sure they get the steps and sequences down, for example, we can have a student perform parallel parking 3 to 4 times in one training session, why? The reason is that "repetition aids retention" or better still "practice makes perfect". By the way, it might interest you to know that almost 99 percent of our students pass their road test at first attempt. What does that mean in essence? It means our students are well trained. All our instructors are third-party road tester for the state, we all familiar and conversant with what is required and our student are trained accordingly.

In skill-focused, for example, we can devote a whole training session for a student who struggles with left and right turns to make a left and right turn over and over, until they can take their turns, safely, smoothly, and confidently.

The State and parents entrust us with the responsibility of training new drivers well, and we do not take that responsibility lightly. Our training method is thorough, efficient and practical. Our goal is to put new drivers behind-the-wheel with confidence and skill, that is our commitment and mandate, as long as we continue to do these things with the help from above, we will continue to innovate, get better and be successful.
