We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ed at Alafia Driving Academy! From Bishop’s very first lesson through his road test, Ed was professional, patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in making sure Bishop became a safe and confident driver—not simply someone who could pass the test.

One thing I especially appreciated as a parent was the detailed report Ed sent after every driving session. He kept me informed about what they worked on, Bishop’s progress, and anything that needed additional practice. That level of communication gave me tremendous peace of mind and showed just how seriously Ed takes his responsibility as an instructor.

Ed emphasized defensive driving, good decision-making, and the responsibility that comes with having a driver’s license. When it came time for Bishop’s road test, all of that preparation paid off—he passed!!!

I truly appreciate the time, patience, knowledge, and encouragement Ed gave Bishop throughout this entire process. As a parent, you put a lot of trust in the person teaching your child to drive, and I’m extremely happy we chose Ed. I would absolutely recommend him to any parent looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about preparing young drivers for the road.

Thank you, Ed, for everything you did for Bishop! You definitely deserve five stars!

Your school has such a great reputation I wanted my son to learn from you guys! It's worth the 45 minute drive to meet you at the Brandon Mall from Land O Lakes! :-D

Hi Jason,
Just wanted to let you know that our son received his license on August 17th, he is doing great driving and enjoying his new car. Thanks again for your help!
