About Us

Driving is more than a skill—it’s a path to independence, confidence, and connection. At Turn Driving School, we specialize in helping individuals of all ages and abilities become safer, more capable drivers.

Founded by Melanie Henry, a Licensed Driving Instructor, Driver Rehabilitation Professional and member of the Association for Driver Rehabilitation Specialists (ADED), Turn Driving School was built on the belief that everyone deserves personalized support behind the wheel. Whether you're a teen, or an adult preparing for your driver license, or a young adult who is neurodivergent and learns differently or you're an older driver returning to driving, or needing help and practice for an upcoming DMV Road Test, we’re here to help.

Why Us

We take pride in offering adaptive, inclusive driving instruction tailored to each person's learning style, cognitive needs, and comfort level. With a strong foundation in driving instruction, case management, risk evaluation, cognitive driver assessments, and driver remediation we are uniquely qualified to work with:

  • Teens and young adults with learning differences including those with autism, ADHD or anxiety.
  • Older drivers seeking a refresher session or support with an upcoming DMV Road Test.
  • Medically at-risk drivers recovering from a medical condition, a fall, a fender-bender or haven't driven in a while and confidence is low.

Testimonials

I am elderly driver, after ticketing for rolling thru a stop sign, was required by the DMV to complete a Reexamination (a Safety Driving Test). Failing twice with other instructors due largely to anxiety & nervousness (especially during the driving test), I called Melanie. She interviewed me, then took me out on the road for a test drive. Her gentle, patient and friendly approach really helped me to overcome my nervousness. She is honestly compassionate with her students and boosted by confidence. I easily passed on the third try, and did so well that even the DMV Examiner commented that I was an excellent driver. I highly recommend Melanie to anyone needing to improve their driving skills. Thanks Melanie!!!

I give Melanie 5 stars because she is the best! She is very professional, very patient, and extremely knowledgable about what the rules of the road are and what makes a safe driver. She works with you in a thorough, comfortable atmosphere making sure you are learning or brushing up on your driving skills for whatever your individual needs are. You will come away a smarter, safer, more confident driver. I know I did!
