Huge thank you to Gilbert! He is an absolutely amazing instructor, very kind and patient! I am an adult who had never driven before and needed to get my license as soon as possible. Gilbert was able to help me overcome my fears, feel comfortable and safe on the road, and equipped me with everything I needed to know for the test and for long term safe driving. Thank you, Gilbert, very much! I never write reviews, but that’s how I found Gmel Driving Academy, and wanted to share that everyone was so right about rating it 5 stars, I’d give 10 if I could, I feel very fortunate. (I passed the test on my first try.)

Gmel driving classes are the best ones in the DMV area. Gilbert was great and he was super patient. He also has good knowledge of rules and shares great techniques for safe driving. I highly recommend.
