    I wish there was a rating higher than 5 stars because Safety First Driving Academy is the best driving school ever! I passed my driving exam today thanks to Mr. ***** ****************** and **************! I am forever indebted to Safety First as I never thought I would ever drive as I was in a horrible accident as a youth and sustained a lot of injuries. However, everyone here was always compassionate, kind, and understanding to the traumas and lack of driving experience I had. Mr. **** was my first instructor and helped me cope with first driving in a vehicle and ************ helped me with getting onto the main roads. Mr. **** truly took me under his wing and taught me everything I needed to know. He was extremely dedicated and committed to teaching me at every step of the way, and he persisted until I mastered each concept. I truly appreciate that because it helped me get rid of my anxiety towards driving as I built a confidence through his training and teachings. I have learned so much from Mr. **** and I cannot thank him enough as it is because of him that I passed with a 100%. Mr. **** is incredibly knowledgeable and caring. He made driving fun with his keen ability to teach, excellence in perfecting my technique, and humor along the way! I strongly recommend Safety First because they put every student first and get them to the finish line no matter where they are. I would also like to thank ***************** who is beyond encouraging and motivating. She offered me so many kind words and advice to help me along the way that I am forever grateful for. Also, she worked tirelessly to carve out the perfect schedule for me and is always responsive to helping me out. Additionally, she scheduled my road test appointments which was so helpful. I feel very confident and encouraged to drive because of the wonderful people at Safety First. Thank you ************** for assisting with my journey and checking in with my progress too! You have such a wonderful, honest, and excellent company!

    Mr. James is truly helping our community be a better place to live. His teaching in our community is helping make more aware and defensive drivers, and ultimately less accidents on the road. I would recommend Mr. ********** to any young driver that needs a little extra help.

    Thank you Sean for the kind words. Your always such a pleasure. Be safe out there on the roads and remember two stops at a stop sign, fill that dead space, your zones 1, 2 and 3 and the most important things to keep you safe, peek your mirrors, but always keep your eyes on the road. Drive Safe!

    The lord is truly blessing Ocala with this amazingly led academy!! Your children and self will be in the safest hands when working with instructor James. Ms. Ashley will make the scheduling process so easy for you and help you pick the best package fit for you. She makes you feel right at home with her kindness and uplifting spirit. I have worked with Mr. James on different occasions knowing him for a year already. After getting back to work with him for three days again I can now say I am a licensed driver, with a 100% perfect score from the examiner. I can honestly say I would not be where I am without the support, teaching, motivation, and patience provided by Mr. James. He is genuine with all that he does, going above and beyond for me. As a teen I never thought I would get through my (then) severe anxiety to even be behind a wheel. Now glory to God, and the angel that Mr. James is, I am an official safe driver. He doesn't teach you just how to drive or simply pass your test, you will learn to become a safe driver. Thank you Safety First Driving Academy may God continue to bless and protect this company that is providing such a significant impact within our communities. Our roads will be safer with Mr. James teaching more and more people, praying for the abundance of success coming your way!

    Giselle, thank you so much for such amazing and kind words.. I don't even know how to express my gratitude. You were such a wonderful student. When I am old with just my memories I will always remember the fun times we had and the silly things that made it fun. :) It is a serious thing to learn how to drive, because the safety of my students is truly what matters the most to me and I give the Glory to god, I am just a nobody. My wife always says I make a good instructor because I like to talk. Lol But as serious as it is, no one says you can't have fun while you learn. Congratulations young lady, its been a wonderful year preparing you for today. Enjoy your independence, enjoy your freedom, be prepared for mom to send you lots of places, lol. Mr. James will never forget you. Drive safe!
