I took 8 hours of training, 4-hours each times 2 successive days. I can’t imagine having started driving without having taken the training first. We have a motorhome that is 36′ and 12’3″ high, and this is our first RV.

Michael is a well seasoned driver who handled both the classroom (outdoors!) and hands-on instruction very well and clearly. He never appeared rushed, and was open to all questions.

Your course was very helpful and is the start of me getting more confident while driving our RV.

My wife and I had the opportunity to take two days of RV Driving lessons with Mike Wertz. Mike was very professional, enthusiastic, friendly, and knowledgeable on RV driving procedures and techniques. I took the class because my RV Driving weakness is back in parking and backing up my fifth wheel RV. Mike concentrated on both of these procedures the two days we were with him. With his instruction my backing up skills are vastly improved. From day one to day two I had a huge progress in correctly backing up my fifth wheel. Mike also showed us pointers on how to drive on narrow roads, in heavy traffic, and on the freeway. He showed us proper tire care and recommended that I purchase an infrared thermometer, which I did, to help determine if a tire is close to a blowout. Mike also took us to certified scales to weigh the fifth wheel and truck, something I have been wanting to do. The lesson was well worth the experience.

Randy Stanhope did a great job from beginning to end and beyond!

This is the thank you that I wrote to him:

Many thanks for your kind, patient, informative, calm – and yes – pleasant tutoring! I feel prepared to take over in an emergency – my original goal. However, I am also feeling that I’d like to get more driving experience in general, to build up my skills and confidence level. Here’s hoping my husband will cede a few hours here and there over the next 5 weeks to grant me that wish.

More than that, everything went well from the first communication with Randy. Prior to the lesson which had been scheduled several weeks in advance, he checked in with me to ask if I had any questions and to be sure I had all the information needed. He showed up a few minutes in advance of our lessons; had a package of materials for me so that I could make notes as we went through the various stages of teaching; he was patient if I or my husband (who is an experienced rig driver) had any questions during the talking parts of the lessons. He inspires confidence in one’s ability to take on a massive rig and is a patient and precise coach. He uses language to succinctly and clearly convey what he wants his student to learn. Although there were a few moments when my heart rate got up there, his patient and calm presence, skills, and encouragement got me through. He did not push me but rather encouraged me to get more and more confidence in my ability.

My husband, who has driven and can maneuver just about everything, appreciated that he learned stuff from Randy, too.

Beyond that, he is a genial person with whom we definitely enjoyed spending several hours. Honestly, I’d rather have him over my shoulder while driving than my husband!

We are both grateful for this opportunity from RV Driving School, and happy that I’ve gained some knowledge in this fashion rather than in an emergency.

I just completed my RV driving lessons yesterday with Jimmy Johnson in N. Alabama, and I wanted you to know what a good experience it was for both me and my wife. While I was the driver, she observed and took notes. It was far more helpful for me than I ever anticipated. As a 74 year old, having driven for decades, I didn’t really think Jimmy could teach this “old dog any new tricks” but HE DID. In fact, he taught me many important nuances needed while driving an RV that are simply not used when driving an automobile.

Jimmy’s experience driving both big rig 18 wheelers and delivering Tiffin Motorhomes all over the country made for interesting conversation. Since he was also a retired educator, like my wife, Sandra, they, too, had some great conversations. I mention this to let others know that even though you’ll be spending eight hours driving and another couple hours of class room time with Jimmy, it will not be boring!

Bottom line for me—these driving lessons were worth much more than what we paid. My comfort level and enjoyment level behind the wheel has increased dramatically, and I have no doubt that I’m a much safer driver for my family and others we encounter on the road. Without any reservations, my wife and I wholeheartedly recommend RV Driving School!

Warmest regards,

Just wanted to pass along feedback on your excellent RV Driving School instructor, Phillip Beasley. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I signed up, but Phillip did a great job reaching out to me, asking about my goals, and tailoring the sessions to meet those goals. I’ve been pulling our 34’ travel trailer for a few months now, so I had a bit of experience, and probably some bad habits. We focused our sessions on turning and backing up. Phillip had asked for the dimensions of our storage space so he could recreate that for us to practice. You’ll see that in the last section of this 7-minute video that captures some of my key learnings. https://youtu.be/nGOcJcd0vsY

He also did a great job of including my wife, Olga, in the sessions so that she can be a better spotter and know how to communicate hand signals with me.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I rate Phillip a strong 10.

Regards,

Jim L.
