1-Hour DMV Test Prep Drive
Need a final tune-up before test day? This focused 60-minute session focuses on key maneuvers and identifies areas to improve with expert feedback, scoring tips, and a confidence boost when you need it most.
The 1-hour Test Prep Drive is best for students with solid driving experience. It’s a final review—not a replacement for structured lessons with a professional instructor.
What Customers Are Saying…
I took driving school with Travis back in 2016 and had an incredible experience. He was a great teacher and connected with each student on a personal level which made the entire classroom feel like a family and the entire experience more than enjoyable.
Travis is the best driving instructor I know. I would always make sure to take classes with him over others and the same goes for my drives. Travis is great with students, making sure to help guide them during challenging new ventures rather than just telling them what to do. His examples are clearly spoken rather than just stated, and they’re easy to understand. Any parent should be choosing Travis over others!
The education I received from Gordon’s Driving school has stuck with me for years. Travis has a fantastic teaching method and he makes the classes so entertaining.
By far the best driving school in the area!!
1-Hour Permit Prep Class
Want to pass your Oregon permit test the first time? This focused one-hour class helps you understand the most important rules of the road, signs, and safe driving habits. Perfect for last-minute prep or extra confidence before exam day.
This class is meant to supplement your personal study efforts. Students new to driving should read through the DMV Oregon Drive Manual before taking this class.
