I passed my driving test thanks to him and my family members. He was nice and I’ll miss our silly conversations. He helped me navigate/observe the road, gave me life lessons as well as driving lessons.
mr oquendo was very professional when i first met him. whenever i made a slight mistake he would not react, but calmly correct me on what to look out for in the future. i, as an experienced driver, believe that he is a very good instructor and he is very polite and patient.
Mr. Oquendo is a great instructor and knows how far to go with you while establishing that trust. He was patient yet firm in giving me the boost of confidence I needed. He took time to create teachable moments every time we met for classes. He was thorough and explained the 'whys' behind every turn, etc. If you don't have common sense then he obviously needs to take a different approach so that the driver does not get them both into an accident. I am disheartened by the amount of poor reviews because I had an AMAZING experience and would hope that more people give him a try.
