I used Alafia Driving Academy for all 3 of my kids and Gabriel has been wonderful. My son felt very comfortable with him and raved about him as well. Very informative and always on time to pick my son up.

Three of my kids have all worked with Alafia Driving Academy and are now Road Rangers! Thank you Gabriel for helping Manny improve his skills!

We signed my 16-year-old daughter up for 3 behind-the-wheel lessons with Instructor Gabriel mainly to qualify for the insurance discount that requires private driving lessons. She already had a good amount of supervised practice and wasn’t nervous at all, so we were looking for an instructor who could efficiently polish her skills and prepare her for the DMV road test.
Gabriel was excellent. He was very patient and kind the entire time, even though my daughter was already fairly confident. He focused on the areas that matter most for the test and for safe driving. He spent some time working on parallel parking, took her driving on the interstate, and gave her plenty of additional parking practice in different situations.
I really liked that after each lesson he provided a written summary of the skills they practiced and specific items she should continue focusing on. It was professional and helpful.
Because of Gabriel’s instruction, my daughter felt even more prepared and passed her DMV test without any issues. The lessons were exactly what we needed to meet the insurance company’s requirements while getting quality professional training.
I would highly recommend this driving academy and especially Instructor Gabriel to other parents. He’s a great instructor who tailors his approach to the student’s level.
