My Story

Hey! I’m Anthony Avila, your driving instructor. I originally became a driving instructor to save some cash as my 5 beautiful children were approaching drivers license age. But over the last 4 years of teaching, I’ve found that helping students discover that they can drive, and drive well, is one of my favorite things. 

I know learning to drive can be stressful, so I focus on understanding what each student needs and wants from their driving experience, and then create the situations that allow them to learn the skills they need. 

Before teaching people to drive, I was a 911 operator and diffused intense situations on the daily. That experience gives me a calm, collected demeanor even when students encounter challenges on the road.

As an in-car driving instructor, I provide students with a positive experience that calms their anxieties before and during our drives thanks to my signature calm, friendly demeanor. This approach and commitment to calmness is really what sets me apart from the other schools out there.

When you’re in my car, you have my faith and confidence that you’ll complete the in-car driving course and do it well. I believe the students can feel that expectation and energy, which helps build their confidence and lessen their anxiety.
