“Learning to drive can be an overwhelming experience, especially if, like me, you’re carrying past trauma. As a kid, I was involved in two car accidents that left me convinced I would never get behind the wheel. I fully embraced the “passenger princess” life and was content staying that way. But something shifted as I approached 30. I realized that fear no longer had a place in my heart. I wanted to take back control, and getting my driver’s license became a personal goal.

That’s where Gilbert came in.

From the moment I started driving with him, I knew I was in good hands. Gilbert is everything you want in a driving instructor: patient, knowledgeable, calm under pressure, and most importantly, confident in your ability even when you’re not. His approach made me feel safe, supported, and capable.

I took ten 2-hour sessions with him, and passed on my first try.

If you’re looking for a driving instructor who’s not only skilled but also genuinely invested in your success, I can’t recommend Gilbert enough. He’s truly the best of the best.?“

“I just passed my DC driving test, and its all thanks to the wonderful instruction from this school! I would recommend them highly to anyone, especially folks like me who are learning as adults.

Before my lessons with Mr. Ish, the only driving experience I had as a 36 year old was some parking lot practice, and a one hour lesson with a different school (which I didn't think was very helpful so I didn't continue). I took 5 lessons of 2 hours each (10 hours total) with him and found him to be an incredibly patient and supportive instructor. I had a lot of anxiety going into the whole process, and his calm presence always put me at ease and made me more confident. When I would make a mistake like making too wide of a turn into a streeet, he would point it out but also ask me why I did it that way. It felt like he really wanted to get to the root of the issue to help fix it. In the case of turning too wide, we realized that I was misjudging the distance of my car from the parked cars on the street. This thoughtful approach really helped diagnose and correct issues as they came up and it was so satisfying to visibly see myself improve. His approach to teaching parallel parking was super clear, and I was able to confidently parallel park during the test, and have now also done it in relatively tight spots on DC streets!

He also recommended doing a last lesson right before the test in the Deanwood neighborhood (where the DMV test takes place). This was great advice, and Mr. Teddy accommodated me for a pre-test lesson on short notice. I used the school's car for the test, which was helpful since I was familiar with it. The day of the test there was a really long wait at the DMV and Mr. Teddy waited with me patiently and was also really supportive. All the communication and reminders from the school about lesson times, locations were timely and clear, Mr. Ish was always on time for picking me up, and it was just a seamless experience end to end.“

“Cyrus Driving School was very organized and efficient. The process of completing classroom training and the hours required to take the test went very smoothly. Passed the test on the first try. Best part was being able to rent the school’s car and receiving the school’s help at MVA to complete the test.“

“Amazing instructor with a ton of patience and an abundance of knowledge. I did about 5-6 classes with him and passed my test. Tesfu is always very accommodating and soothing to any and all anxieties.“

“No lie, it was a great experience on my side, and just ask questions they answer to all your CDL questions. I recommend ALEX CDL school.“

“I recently completed the Adult Waiver Program and successfully obtained my driver’s license, thanks to Gabriel’s excellent instruction. Before starting the lessons, I was very nervous—I worried I might end up with a teacher who wasn’t patient or clear. But after just the first class with Gabriel, I felt completely at ease.

Gabriel is incredibly patient, explains every detail thoroughly, and creates a calm, supportive learning environment. He clearly cares about road safety and takes his role as an instructor seriously. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does and is committed to helping his students succeed.

I highly recommend Gabriel to anyone learning to drive, especially those who may be nervous or uncertain. He made the whole process smooth and confidence-building, and I’m very grateful for his guidance.“

He was incredibly patient, supportive, and calm—exactly what I needed as someone with some anxiety about driving. Jules worked at my pace, offering clear feedback and targeted practice that really helped build my confidence. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, patient, and encouraging instructor.“

“I highly recommend Habesha Spring Driving School to anyone needing driving skills and a license. They teach and handle their clients exceptionally well.I always remember you guys thank you again and again“

“Best Driving School in Maryland!

If you live in Maryland, don't waste your time going to any other driving school—choose Habesha Driving School instead. Initially, I attended a different driving school, but it was not helpful at all. They didn’t teach me the skills I needed for my behind-the-wheel test. Fortunately, a friend recommended Habesha Driving School, and I only wish I had discovered this exceptional school sooner.

The staff at Habesha Driving School is incredibly kind, patient, instructive, respectful, friendly, and supportive. I had the pleasure of learning from two outstanding instructors, Mr. Guy and Mr. Dawit, and thanks to their guidance, I passed my test on the first try.

Do yourself a favor and avoid wasting your money at other schools—choose Habesha Driving School. You won't regret it!

“Thank you so much to Mr Michael and Mr Kehind, they are a great and professional instructors ,they explain to me the process step by step ...I recommends this academy“

“My son took the online course with easy method driving school and the teacher was fantastic. He made the class fun and interesting. The behind the wheel instructor was awesome and was able to work around our busy ball practice and music lesson schedule and picked my son up at school to make things a lot easier on me. We also scheduled some extra behind the wheel driving and use of the car for the driving test. All in all just a terrific experience with all the teachers and staff. I highly recommend easy method to any new driver. Plus they have been around forever.“

“I had a very pleasant experience from start to finish. From the initial quote conversation all the way to my driver's test I had NO COMPLAINTS...he was prompt and very patient with a first time driver so thanks.“
