Meet Glenn Riesenberger, our October Instructor Spotlight at our Farmington and Canton High School, MI locations!
While this is Glenn’s first year teaching driver education, he brings about 20 years of coaching experience to the role. What he enjoys most is helping students learn in a way that works for them, adapting his coaching style to each individual student.
Glenn says All Star Driver Education stands out because of its organization, friendly instructors and strong communication with parents. He believes good drivers should have knowledge, courtesy and respect for everyone else sharing the road.
For new drivers, Glenn sees challenges ranging from increased traffic and construction to understanding the rules of the road and learning how to be courteous toward other drivers. His approach is to stay calm and encouraging, reminding students that mistakes are part of learning and that they can do it. He knows that if an instructor gets frustrated or nervous, students can shut down, so keeping them calm is a big part of his teaching style.
Glenn’s top safety tip is one to remember as we head into rainy weather: the beginning of a rainstorm can be especially dangerous because water mixes with the oils and residue on the road, making surfaces more slippery. Slow down, stay alert and give yourself extra space when the rain first begins.
Join us in celebrating Glenn and the patience, encouragement and coaching he brings to every student behind the wheel!
