I appreciate when the instructors repeat what they have already said. I know some people get annoyed by this, but it really helps me. Alejandra talks at a very nice pace which helps me absorbe all the information much faster.

Thank you Micah and Alejandra, you guys gave us great driving lessons. You are cool and calm. Easy to understand. I've been watching most of your videos countless times before I took my test. Thanks God, I passed my test today! To all who are going to take the test, watch the videos and apply it in your practice. Be confident in your driving. Always think of being a safe driver and not just passing the test. Good job all teachers of Drivers Ed Direct. Highly recommended!

This video helps alot as i feel very discouraged taking my first lessons yesterday and i kept overturning and I still need to learn to when to make a sharp turn and when to just go easy on the wheel. Lifes been pretty hard for ne growing up and i guess that also can prevent me from concentrating.
