My son was on a 2 week vacation and needed to get a learners permit and pass his driving test…read morebefore he returned to his duty station. I found Don Rudolph - owner of the Winter Park Driving Academy, LLC thru the DMV listing for driving schools in Seminole County. Don has over 10 years of driving instruction experience. Originally certified in Defensive Driving Instruction by the New Hampshire Police Standards and Training Council, Don has also completed additional training in Police Pursuit driving instruction through the New England State Police Area. The mission of WPDA is to provide behind the wheel driving instruction with the purpose of developing the highest level of driving skills to the student. We signed up for the Four Lesson (6hr) Defensive Driving Program as this was all the time we had before his appointment for his driving test. (There is also options for Six Lessons - 9hrs, Eight Lessons -12hrs, 10hr Night Driving, hourly sessions and also rental of the Academy vehicle for the road exam at the DMV. Don came out to our house in his dual control vehicle and had my son drive from the house for his lesson. Don gave us an information sheet on what was required for the exam and also the documents that the DMV now require for licensing (US Birth Cert or US Passport, SSCard, 2 proofs of residence). We noticed straight away that Don was a calm, well presented, polite man that put us at ease. After his first session with Don we noticed a marked improvement in my son's driving skills and I no longer felt anxious to have him drive me to practice outside of his lessons, with each session my son improved dramatically. He passed his driving test first try and was extremely pleased. Don turned out to be the right choice for us and I would highly recommend him to anyone starting out or wishing to improve their driving skills.

So, I had anxiety about driving and was about ready to hang it up. I scheduled an appointment with the school. Esmeralda Garcia was my driving instructor. She was absolutely excellent.

Would highly recommend Road ready Watch dog driving school.

I felt that I not only gained a new essential life skill, but also worked up good confidence in dealing with road. The instructor is very patient, empathetic and pragmatic. He has a wealth of knowledge in teaching people of different walks of life to drive, thanks to the decades of experience as an instructor!! While emphasizing safety first with many practical tips and tricks for the road, he also taught me to feel integrated with the car/flow and relax as I maneuver the car. I was so stiff at the beginning, but with good coaching, now I'm pretty smooth in handling the wheel. He's also personally very attuned to the driving test, which made me feel well-prepared as I conducted the actual road test. The school is also a certified third-party test administrator, btw. Some other positives from my experience 1) Signing up is easy! The scheduler lady is nice to talk to and will make sure everything is in order from lesson scheduling to the testing day arrangement. 2) I was picked up on time and dropped off with ease each session (I'd drive myself home as part of the practice/lesson). 3) I like that they have an online portal for easily booking new classes or simply double checking the planned schedule. 4) ¡Se habla español! So I got to practice a little for fun . But seriously, they are well equipped to serve the diverse community here in central Florida. Thank you again, EZ learning driving school! I'm just really happy that I passed, and I def couldn't have done it without you guys. 10/10 recommend!

They cut you off while explaining you situation and even if you have years of sobriety under your belt they continue to do things to prolong your stay in the program.

Seeing as they are the only game in town, there really isn't anything you can do except let them be rude and take it. I've met so many people in recovery who do actually care. Hopefully they can make drastic improvements on how they treat people who need their help. It was this way 15 years ago and still is.

A funky little studio that teaches acting technique classes at various levels. That's about all I…read moreknow about it in that realm. A few friends of ours have been going to classes for a few years and seem to really feel it benefits them. The studio and actors put on a show every year that the past 2 years has been called Play de Luna - a series of one act comedic plays. At a low cost you can go to see some quick one act plays with some developing actors. Some are awesome and some are good, none are bad. The actors and directors work so hard at their craft and it shows. The studio itself is a small space. It's got a few rows of seats for an audience and some bathrooms with a small front lobby where they sell drinks during the shows. Overall, if you're looking for something to do in Oct or Nov - check out their show. It's a great fun weekend thing to do (and only suitable for adults). I can say that based on friend's testimonials it seems to be a great place for acting classes too but I cannot say that from my own experience aside from witnessing them get several jobs over the last year or so since they started taking the classes.
