What Are Parents and Students saying about their experience with Drive Safe Academy?
"Doing drivers ed through Drive Safe Academy was an awesome option for our family. The Sunday afternoon schedule allowed our son to avoid conflicts with other school and sports activities. Kara is a conscientious instructor and a top-notch communicator with both students and families. As parents, we felt like we were part of the process and learning alongside our teenage driver."
- Carrie B. (Parent)
"The Drive Safe Academy was simply amazing in providing my daughter the Driver's Education course she needed to work towards earning her license. Kara, the owner and instructor, immediately made my daughter feel safe and respected and that helped relieve the natural anxiety that occurred as she learned to drive for the first time. Kara is an experienced, knowledgeable, and incredibly competent teacher and that showed in many ways but particularly in her innate ability to know when to provide my daughter with encouragement, an instruction, or a correction. Thank you, Kara! I will recommend you and Drive Safe Academy to any parent whose child needs Driver Education."
-Doug H (Parent)

I began my teaching career as a high school English teacher in 2001. My love of learning prompted me to participate in on-going professional development; I hold four Vermont teaching endorsements, as well as my DMV private driver training school credentials. I have served students in a variety of roles including, Driver Education, Special Education, and Career & Technical Education. I LOVE learning, growing, and teaching. My wide range of teaching experience provides me with a unique perspective and consistent ability to support the needs of all students.
My small classes and flexible scheduling support individualized learning, ensuring that each student receives the attention and support they need to become confident and responsible drivers. As an educator who is also a parent, I am continually self-reflecting and dedicated to providing the high-quality educational experience that I would want for my own children.
