Introduction
First, students tend to be nervous at first so I begin with my student in a slow speed zone areas to make them comfortable and then gradually take them to higher speed zones. Also, I go over the basics to understand a little bit about the car. For example, how to turn on headlights, high beam, wipers, emergency signal, horn, front and rear defroster and changing gears! Commentary Driving: being conscious of what you're doing on the road and extremely observant. It may have been a while since you have been conscious of your driving but I am going to help you narrate the process outloud by saying things like " that truck is getting close try to ease on gas a bit or that blue car is going too fast it will probably pull in front of us try to leave extra space. Clear instructions to make us safe on the road! I will encourage my student to make accurate judgements about what traffic will do and how to respond to it additionally we will discuss road hazards and what to do about each situation we face while driving! My education/training/experience: 1. Dmv Certified Driving Instructor 2. Education 114 Driver Task Analysis 3. Edu 214 Instruction Principles of Driver Education 4. Commercial School License 5. Re- examination certified for Dmv tests 5. We work along the social services for driving 6. Years of experience teaching Pricing: I'm very flexible in terms of methods of payments including: Cash, Cash app, Zelle, Venmo and checks all work fine How started teaching? My family always used to encourage me and say that I am a great driver and coming from a family of teachers so I decided to get certified and went to school and studied the courses necessary to become a driving instructor then got my degree and got certified through the Department Of Motor Vehicles and then started working with Falls Church Driving School and so far I trained over 5000 students. What types of students have I worked with? I worked with all levels of experiences from beginners to intermediate to advance. I trained people who are looking to learn driving for the first time and people who are looking to master their driving skills and become experts! Describe a recent event you are found of. Re Examination class for my students to retake their test in the Dmv and helping my students drive on a daily basis with different programs of training! What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise? Find an instructor who can stay calm under pressure and making sure that he or she can make you comfortable and learning in a relaxed and enjoyable environment! Additionally, making sure the instructor does not use the dual break and gas pedal frequently so the student learn to have full control over the car and become confident What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs? Having their learners permit or International License before enrolling and hiring me as their driving instructor!

I had an amazing experience with this Driving School, and I can’t recommend Mohamed Elhadi enough! From the very first lesson, he was incredibly patient, professional, and knowledgeable. He made sure I felt confident behind the wheel and provided clear, step-by-step guidance that made learning to drive so much easier.

My overall experience with Falls Church Driving School was excellent, thanks to my driving instructor, Mohamed. He was patient, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, which made learning to drive a smooth and enjoyable process. Mohamed had a way of explaining things clearly and breaking down even the most complex maneuvers into simple steps, which boosted my confidence behind the wheel. His calm demeanor and encouragement helped ease any nervousness I had during the lessons. I would highly recommend Mohamed and Falls Church Driving School to anyone looking for quality driving instruction!

Mohamed is a breathe of fresh air. I have had five different driving instructors over the years and Mohamed is best! I have always had anxiety around driving. My hands would literally shake on the steering wheel. At 30 years old I decided to conquer my fear and this has only been possible because of Mohamed. My family are friends are impressed with my progress and shocked that I was I able to overcome my anxiety. Mohamed is an extremely patient and thorough instructor. I would recommend him to anyone learning how to drive.

The work quality was excellent because I was able to learn a lot in a short period that most other driving schools can not do.

Mr. Mohammed is an excellent driving instructor who has been instrumental in improving my driving skills. His detailed explanations have greatly helped me understand proper hand positioning on the steering wheel. Additionally, when it comes to switching lanes on highways—a challenge I have struggled with—Mr. Mohammed taught me that at higher speeds, less steering is needed, whereas at lower speeds, more steering is necessary. This guidance, along with the many acronyms and key tips he has shared, have deeply ingrained essential driving knowledge in my mind.
