This is the best driving academy in Winston-Salem! I never took a driving course while I was in high school and after graduating college, I thought it was time for me to get my driver’s license. I took my first lesson in March of this year and Mr. Bob (no longer works there ☹️) was very professional and down to earth since I was a first time driver and made me start getting comfortable driving throughout town and I took another lesson a month later with Mr. Nathan, who taught me how to change lanes and enter the highway for the first time was such an exciting and new learning experience that helped me gain confidence for me as a driver. After every lesson I had, Heather would call me a day after on getting feedback and she was so nice and professional on the phone. Now, I finally got my driver’s license this month after a few months of practicing what I learned on taking lessons! If anyone is looking to take their first steps to getting behind the wheel no matter what age, this academy is the one for YOU!

I highly recommend Greenbriar. They are very professional and stayed in communication through the entire process. My daughter was able to complete the classroom and driving portion quickly. We will be using them in the future for our other children.

From the very beginning I was impressed by Greenbriar Driving Academy, they are so professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. What really impressed me and, made me extremely happy, was when my son told me that he enjoyed every driving instructor he had; he felt at ease and the drivers were patient with him and really cool. For my teenage son to say that...spoke volumes to me. I will always recommend Greenbriar and when my youngest son starts this process, well be right back. Nothing quite compares to the safety I felt with knowing my son was in good hands. Thankful for their wonderful team.

I highly recommend Greenbriar Driving Academy. Heather and Nathan are wonderful to work with! Our youngest took their class and 6 hours of driving—and passed her permit test the first time. Our oldest went to a different drivers ed company, let me just say that we wish we had taken him to Greenbriar also!

I just finished taking two adult in-car driving classes with Heather and Nathan. They were both great teachers. I took my first class with Heather and she was extremely patient and helped me feel comfortable with driving in more traffic than I’m used to and taught me things that would help me pass the dmv driving test. I took my second class with Nathan and he had a lot of trust in me and made me confident to drive on the interstate and areas I was not as familiar with. Both instructors were very professional yet personable, and that helped me feel super confident in being able to become a great drive with more practice and experience. I would highly recommend Greenbriar to anyone who wants to learn the basics, develop and/or improve their driving skills, wants to gain more confidence on the road, and of course, eventually get their license. 5/5 stars! :)

Truly a pleasure to work with. I very much appreciated the prompt return of phone calls, the easy scheduling, and most importantly, the emphasis on safe driving. I highly recommend!

The best driving school out there in my opinion...very professional....they put you at ease all while building your confidence as well as driving skills...I had never drove and I’m 43 years old...mr Nathan took his time with me...the whole experience was top notch....I would definitely recommend this driving school hands down....

I highly recommend Greenbriar Driving Academy for any future driver! Heather and Nathan adapted with the times and taught an excellent online, virtual Driver’s Ed class: Summer 2020! Even more importantly, they treat their drivers as if they were their own. They give drivers confidence and independence (with guidance) on the road while comforting parents (as needed) when students “take the wheel for the first time.” Greenbriar Driving Academy is extremely professional in every way and attentive to detail- my daughter has met all her requirements and is ready to get her permit on her 15th birthday! Thank you, Heather and Nathan, for preparing our daughter in this important and exciting next step!Kirsten Davis

I highly recommend Greenbriar Driving Academy Heather did a excellent job on the virtual class my son learned so much he had never driven a car before so he was a little nervous but Heather and Joe made him feel comfortable they both were so patient and kind. We will definitely be using them again in the future.

Both our kids have had their lessons from them. Great teachers. Would highly recommend.

Great experience with Greenbriar Driving Academy! Very professional and willing to answer any question. Our son really enjoyed the classroom as well as the in car instruction. He passed his permit test on the first try and seems confident behind the wheel. I would definitely recommend!!

Heather ans her whole crew were very professional and responsive. I registered well in advance, she answered all of my questions and my daughter got her driving requirements done in the time frame she needed it. I have and will continue to recommend Greenbriar to people.

I took a few lessons through Greenbriar and I loved it. I had the pleasure of riding with both Heather and Nathan. They somewhat have different teaching styles, but they were both awesome. They are very personable and patient individuals. They not only gave me the skills that I needed but they helped me become more confident. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for driving classes in the triad area.

Greenbriar Driving Academy was a wonderful experience for our son. He received such personal attention both in class and during the actual driving experience. He also received opportunities (special lesson showing the effects of driving while impaired, etc) that my older son who took a public driving class did not receive. Nathan and Heather are patient, thorough, relaxed, and kind. A perfect pair to teach driving skills to a somewhat nervous teen boy!

Nathan and Heather are a great team who are invested in their clients goals. It was a pleasure being their student and facing my fears by learning from experienced professionals. They genuinely care and offer helpful tips and tricks to get you where you need to be. Highly recommend!

Extremely pleased with Greenbriar Driving Academy! Nathan is so friendly and he knows how to teach. And Heather was very easy to communicate with and help me find times given my schedule. They picked me up, dropped me off for each lesson and even on test day! I learned quickly and had no problem passing the road test. Thanks Nathan and Heather!

My 15-yr old daughter took the 1-week driver training class at Greenbriar Driving Academy two weeks ago and got her permit today! She is really excited and drove 50 miles in the city and on highway today! The owner and instructor Nathan and Heather are extremely kind and patient teachers, and both took my daughter for road practice last week. I am very glad to have signed up my daughter at Greenbriar because I can tell that she is very well prepared by the Greenbriar Academy in both driving knowledge and practical driving tips. Highly recommend this driving school!

I am adult student driver. zero driving experience before. Heather picked me up driving on time she is very punctual and patient for adult learners. I feel very confortable driving with her, I used your car for my lessons they have their car equipped with brake and it made me feel calmer. No other academy helped me for my Basic English, but they accepted me and I am grateful for helping me.

Greenbriar Academy is a terrific resource for the greater Winston-Salem community. Many know about their training program for teens but, may not know they also offer one on one in-car driving lessons for college students and adults. Flexible training times, well maintained fleet of practice cars and patient, personable owners. Recommend 100%

I had my very first session with Nathan yesterday and it was simply GREAT! I have always felt very nervous when attempting to drive and gradually, with his instruction, patience, and good sense of humor, I started to feel more at ease and definitely more confident too. Im looking forward to my next sessions! I highly recommend this driving school!! Thank you so much!

Getting my license would not be possible without the classes I took with Heather. She is very patient and does not give up with her students (in this case with me). If you are a foreign that is trying to get a driver license, this is the best option.

Ive recently visited Greenbriar Driving Academy, and the office is amazing. The office and classroom is located on the 4th floor which has great views from the many windows found in the room. It really gives it a nice ambiance while learning during class. Greenbriar Driving Academy I found was very clean and very well run. I would not hesitate in recommending this school to anyone wishing to learn how to drive.

I found Greenbriar through a search for adult driving lessons and decided to give them a try! I had taken drivers education as a teen but never ended up driving due to severe anxiety problems-- I was 28 when I found Greenbriar. I was blown away by the service, attention, patience, and training given by Heather! She made me feel completely comfortable and (slowly but surely) confident behind the wheel. She took extra time to walk me through things that were difficult for me, gave me tips on my driving test, and let me learn at my own pace.Greenbriars online booking was SUPER simple and I was able to communicate over email and text regarding my lessons. I also used their car for my driving exam at the DMV. I met with Heather a couple of times a month (the sessions are 90 minutes) for a few months-- I work full-time AND Im in graduate school, so it was nice that Greenbriar could work with my full schedule. Thanks to Heather I got my license on my first attempt, and just bought my first car! No more driving anxiety either. :)I would recommend Greenbriars instructors to anyone (adult and teen) wanting help to feeling confident driving, to anyone with driving anxiety, or to new drivers without any experience!

Greenbriar was wonderful to work with and provided excellent in-car instruction for my son! Highly recommend!

Mr. Nathan and Mrs. Heather were both really professional and very positive people to be around. Mr. Nathan was kind, cool and collected, had a great sense of humor, and really knows what hes doing. He made sure that I was a defensive driver and that I am completely aware of my surroundings that ultimately led to me being successful in getting my drivers license. Thanks to him, I have become a competent driver and I would definitely not hesitate in recommending this place!

I was taught by Heather and she is a great teacher. She is patient, caring and understanding. I feel so comfortable driving with her that I picked up driving very quickly and I would recommend this place to everyone.

I just got my driving license this week!!! Great thanks to Nathan!!!I come from another country and had no driving experience both in my home country and in US. I was super nervous whenever driving on the road, but Nathan is very professional and patient, and that helps me build my confidence up. He also pulled out his notebook and drew a graph to help me understand mirrors usage and blind spots and parking. If you get freaking out when driving, do not know how to use brake and gas properly, and are nervous about switching lanes just like me, schedule an appointment with them and see how it goes! :D

Passed my driving test today and it was all thanks to Nathan and Heather. I took the driving test twice previously and was a nervous-wreck when it came to driving. Nathan helped me build my confidence back up and it became an essential part of my success. Thanks you guys!

Experienced and patient coach for adult learners. Strongly recommend to even foreigners who want to learn driving in US.

Did a couple early driving sessions about a month ago, and got my license on my 1st try. Highly recommend them to anyone needing quality drivers education. Thanks for the help, Nathan and Heather!

Nathan and Heather are very pleasant and professional people. Their business is your children and therefore their number one priority. I have had the pleasure of doing driver training with Nathan and through that learned how dedicated he is to making the drivers education experience for young people a second to none fun experience with a focus on safety. I would easily trust Heather and Nathan with my children knowing how important their own children and family are to them.Joe Wingler RT(R), Radiologic Technologist

I couldnt ask for a better couple to teach my son how to drive and prepare him for getting his learners permit. Nathan and Heather gave my son the confidence and tools to be a safe driver, while making the classroom and in-car a great experience.

Great academy and good instructions and a very well structured course with a very open environment with very good driving instructors and instructions this is the best step to begginging driving

A fantastic service from a great duo! I have had a lot of anxiety issues with driving in the past, but I highly recommend.

Without a doubt, the best around!
