Parents Say

“Driver Ed in a Box is very informative. The Parent Companion, audio tapes, textbook, and workbook are like pieces to a puzzle. When put together, they give you a complete picture.” - M.C., Grand View, Texas

"Most valuable, the videos, because they visually explain the procedures." - Debra Giesecke, Flower Mound, Texas

"Driver Ed in a Box covers so many things I would have never thought of." - Barbara Kotzur, McAllen, Texas

"Excellent.  I believe my son is far better prepared than those who use the antiquated drivers ed schools.  My son took a drivers ed school required by our state, but it wasn’t adequate or comprehensive enough.  Enjoyed all, but the parking lot audiotape was so much new info, I was impressed.  Great tape.  Videos put the info into practice and helped us understand the concepts being discussed on the audio.  Also appreciated the concise, clear concept/rules presented.  It all made so much sense.  Thank you!" – Julie Wise, Westerville, Ohio

"Driver Ed in a Box was practical, easy to follow, and provided excellent information." - Jean Crow, Duncan, Oklahoma

"Your step by step instructions were great!  The tapes actually helped me to become a better driver which enabled me to help (student) better.  I like to give her a reason for doing everything besides “you are just supposed to.”  The lesson plans were invaluable. I have a friend who signed up for a different parent taught course and did not have lesson plans.  They are still struggling.  The audiotapes helped us the most.  They just made me aware of things I needed to teach that I took for granted and did without thought that were extremely important in that my daughter know why she was to do what was instructed.  I was able to teach her how to think & drive collision-free." – G.B., Weatherford, Texas

"Your quality is high, cost is low! Thank you!" - Teri Alliston, Austin, Texas

 "Excellent.  Covers all learning styles.  Gave information that has not been covered in other programs.  Audiotapes very useful.  Helped reinforce what was taught on the videos and in the written material." – Parent, Palomar Mountain, California

"Provides one-on-one, undistracted instruction and driving time as well as methodical approach to the driving experience.  The expert Commentary and instruction on developing ‘forward looking’ skills are good tips on both teaching the driving skills and preparing the student to become a safe driver.  The audiotapes were most valuable.  Much of what we know as drivers is hard to communicate to a student because it has become instinctive.  That makes it harder to communicate to a new driver.  Thanks for providing this opportunity – wonderful idea.  Other friends recommended this program to us." – G.K., Terrell, Texas

"Excellent.  Gave us time to adjust training to our daughter’s unique learning style.  Gave visual, audio and written areas – covered everything from more than one angle.  The audiotapes were very useful.  The first tape was probably the most useful because it set the tone for the course.  Most valuable, the flexible nature of the course.  Advertise more!  We just went out to friends last evening that had looked for just such a program but couldn’t find one.  We sure will advertise for you!" – M.S., Simsbury, Connecticut

"It provided me and my son with everything we needed.  It was made easier by having it organized as you have it.  The Parent Companion is GREAT!  The audiotapes helped tremendously.  I especially needed those hints on how to teach – the ones like ‘be positive’ and ‘don’t yell STOP!’  It is uncanny how many times in the beginning one want to say ‘STOP’ very loudly!!  The Parent Companion was my security blanket.  It told me absolutely everything I needed to know to be able to do this at all.  I wish this course was more well known with the general public.  It is far superior to the normal drivers ed classes that most teenagers attend.  We need this course taught all across the country.  It would save lives." – Susan Lewis, Nacogdoches, Texas

"My first teen took Driver's Ed with a driving school - terrible experience!  They don't teach enough Defensive Driving and encourage kids to drive faster than their experience allows them to!" – Parent, Hitchcock, Texas

"It gave us a very specific pattern to follow, but also allowed us ample flexibility.  Audiotape modeling how to do the Commentary was most helpful.  Most valuable, the people on the phone." – Dixie Hickman, Stone Mountain, Georgia

"I liked being in control of what Phillip was learning.  It was an enjoyable experience, one that I’d recommend to others.  The audiotapes were very useful.  The first tape helped set the format.  I had direction as to where and how to begin.  The whole family was able to see the videos and we were able to talk about the different situations.  The mirrors were a wonderful crutch to be able to see traffic behind & give advice when needed." – Jan Terrell, Lake Jackson, Texas

"It was an extremely informative and helpful program.  The instructions were very clear and detailed.  The tapes were very useful.  The step-by-step coaching was very helpful.  They helped remove much of the anxiety in teaching my teen how to drive.  Gave me many tips on how to be a more effective teacher and a better driver.  They were also entertaining!" – Annie Ballatore, Houston, Texas

"Excellent.  It gave me full confidence that I can teach my child how to drive collision-free.  Audiotapes were all useful.  It was helpful to know how I am to communicate instructions, without panicking!  Most valuable, textbook & videos for my teen.  It went into much more depth than I could.  The videos gave her a more concrete idea of what I expected from her.  Audiotapes were my lifeline.  The really gave me confidence & practical tips & clear instructions." – R.M., Benton, Kentucky

"I feel Driver Ed in a Box has given my teen a more in depth foundation for driving.  I will feel more comfortable with her driving than I would have otherwise." - Charlyce Brueggemeyer, De Soto, Texas

"The concepts of collision free driving and the resultant philosophy of your program is new to me – as a seasoned driver – and I think it is fantastic.  I loved the constant reinforcement of review of concepts.  The tapes were very useful in reinforcing visually what had been taught in the text, and then in vehicle training.  I learned SO MUCH!  The pleasant conversational style of the two men with their constant reviewing was so good.  The announcer asked Pat questions just as if I was asking them."- Jan Laramore, Plainville, Massachusetts

"It is concise, precise and non-technical.  I felt very much at ease implementing the teaching program.  The audiotapes were good for several reasons.  First, I could listen to them in the car during my work day. Secondly, the dialogue style kept it lively & interesting.  I liked most the tape which focused on the parking lot practice." – Jeff Rich, Morehead, Kentucky

"Your expertise and concern for our teen drivers is very evident.  Your organization helped us stay on schedule.  Thank you for loving teens!  I’m glad we discussed how to avoid collisions and emergency problems on the road.  I love how organized your Parent Companion is.  Thank you also for the phone help.  Everyone on your staff was very gracious every time I called!  Such courtesy is becoming a scarcity in today’s society." – Lily Martinez, El Paso, Texas

"I felt this was an excellent program.  Everything is covered (and then some).  Thank you so much for your great program.  As a home-school parent/teacher I really appreciate the opportunity to teach my student.  Your program made my job so much easier!" – Susan Hamilton, Eagan, Minnesota

"Driver Ed in a Box is excellent.  It reminded me or numerous points and techniques that I take for granted and would have had trouble explaining." - Jeff Knight, Kemp, Texas

"Materials were varied so that every learning style could succeed.  Lesson plans made teaching fun and not something to fear!  Videos really impressed my son." – Carol Meals, Carrollton, Texas

"Excellent.  (1)Teaches the principles my dad taught me, which have made me a safe driver.  (2)Good techniques for teaching.  (3)Some new ideas!" – J.M., St. Louis, Missouri

"Excellent.  Busy parents like myself need the assistance of your materials.  Also they teach the parent to be an effective instructor.  Audiotapes very useful.  Just because we care does not make us parents good instructors.  Telling us how to plan & communicate correctly is a big help." – J.S., Arlington, Texas

"Thank you for preparing and supplying us with an excellent and very informative driver ed course.  What a wonderful teaching tool.  Kendall and I have tried to drive defensively for many years and your materials helped us to pass this on to our daughter.  The audiotapes were excellent – very well presented.  They helped us as instructors through the driving process.  Thank you for your diligence to such detail.  It was a joy to watch our daughter work through each aspect of the Driver Ed in a Box course." – Marilyn Kowalchuk, Alvin, Texas

"We appreciate the awareness it gave us of the potential dangers, safety and the serious responsibility for life.  Excellent in stressing safety.  Really made us think!  The instruction was excellent and thorough.  The Parent Companion helped us follow through and be organized and thorough in behind-the-wheel training." – S.M., Redmond, Oregon

"This program helped us with ease to teach our son to drive.  With my husband’s schedule he was able to listen to the tapes to & from work & be ready to take Aaron on a drivers lesson.  I was able to keep up with the paperwork.  Each part had its value.  The book use necessary to Aaron’s learning, the audiotapes were of great value to my husband’s ability to carry out the lesson with success.  The price was great for our budget!  Thanks." – Becky Wagster, Koppel, Pennsylvania
