I had a great experience having a 2 hour stick shift lesson with Andes Driving School. Mr. Ed was patient, clear, and professional. He is very skilled at pinpointing what the issue with my driving was at any given moment and communicating that clearly and calmly. I gained skills and confidence. I will definitely recommend to others!

My boyfriend purchased me a 2 hour stick-shift driving lesson with Ed for my upcoming travels to South America. My only other experience driving manual was 20 years ago, for 5 minutes, in my friends’ car that I thought I ruined in the end. Because of that, I was extremely nervous. However, Ed was pleasant, patient and took things at a good pace. We drove around the parking lot for a few minutes and then graduated to a neighborhood. I honestly never thought I’d be able to “leave the parking lot” but here I was now heading out to Southpoint after being successful in the neighborhood. While I had very few problems originally, when traffic and pressure were thrown in, I had a few times where I stalled out. While this did fluster me a bit, Ed didn’t panic and helped me regroup. We did a variety of driving situations in the two hours, including hills and reversing. Ed’s teaching allowed me to surpass my expectations. I obviously still need a little more practice before I’d independently go for it, but I’m close. :-) Thanks, Ed!

I was very pleased with Ed's 5-hour course. I was able to get my license very easily after taking it with him, and he was very flexible and ensured that I was able to use his car and get my license before I had to go abroad for school. I am very grateful to Ed as he ensured I was ready for the test but also ensured that I would be a good driver outside of the test, which a lot of driving schools do not do. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of good, concise, clear instructions with a guarantee of being a better driver.

Andes Driving School is the best you can find in Durham! Ed is a great teacher knows exactly what it takes to get a driver's license. I wouldn't be able to get my license during my final examination week without his help! With only 5 hours, I even feel confident with hitting the road! I rented his car for the driving test and all went smoothly. Ed was very nice and caring staying with us all times in DMV and even taught a last minute class right before the test. He is a professional, ethical and hard-working teacher. Thanks Ed! I recommend him most highly!

Edward is the nicest driving instructor you could have. He teaches you everything you need to know while maintaining a calm, respectful, yet personable attitude. He has the ability to calm your nerves and doesn't become excitable if you mess up. I had never driven beyond a parking spot before our first lesson, and after 5 lessons was able to easily get my license. I would definitely recommend taking lessons from him!
