My instructor was Jordan Diaz. Prior to taking my driving lessons, I did not have formal driving school training-- I more or less sat in the passenger/navigator seat for about 20 years. Learning how to drive at a latter age was mentally challenging because it's matter in which you have to tell yourself, you got this-- you're going to learn just like everyone else. Jordan encouraged me from Day 1. It was certainly a challenge being on the road in Elmhurst, Queens driving through tiny two-way streets, however-- these are are scenarios I will find myself in either on the road test and the near future. From Jordan, I learned the basics, the tricks of driving-- defensively, technically, and practical application. Jordan taught with humorous anecdotes. These were invaluable as I prepared for my road test. Getting the learner's permit, signing up and executing the lessons and finally taking the road test-- it took a solid 6 months of dedication and hard work. And like anything else in life-- and in COVID, you have to fight every obstacle to reach your goal. Yes, there were hiccups at the office and I didn't always get the appts dates I wanted but I can honestly say-- they are all compassionate, understanding people at GSDS and when you do reach them on the phone or they'll call you back-- they're willing to listen and do their best to work with you. We worked everything out-- just let them know what you need as a student, take advantage of all those learning moments on the road, ask many questions and follow through on your own part. As for Jordan, I'll recommend him anytime. He's a patient, versatile instructor-- but most of all, I trusted him. He's always alert and vigilant-- he caught everything I did and helped me become a better driver. I passed my DMV road test two days after Christmas. 2022 is looking exceptionally bright!
