🔰 Greenlight Driving School
Built for families who care about how their teen learns to drive.
🧠 Not All Driving Schools Are the Same
Yes, the curriculum is similar across Connecticut. Most schools offer the same 8-hour course, driving hours, and a DMV test option.
But you're not just buying a course. You're choosing someone to coach your teen behind the wheel of a moving vehicle.
At Greenlight, that person is always me — Bryan Gallego, a DMV-Certified Master Instructor. I personally teach every student. No rotating instructors. No trainees. No last-minute substitutes.
I don’t just check boxes — I build confident, skilled drivers, and I keep families informed every step of the way.
✅ Why Families Choose Greenlight — Again and Again
- One-on-One Lessons, Always: Your teen drives with me — every single time. I customize each session to their unique needs and pace.
- Direct Parent Communication: After every lesson, I follow up so you know exactly how your teen is doing and what to work on at home.
- No Waitlists, No Chaos: Big chains overbook and bounce students between towns. I keep things local, personal, and efficient.
🛠️ Services That Work — Because They’re Built Around the Student
- 🧠 8-Hour Safe Driving Course (Online): State-required. Easy to follow. Flexible start dates. Done right.
- 🚗 Behind-the-Wheel Driving Lessons: Private, door-to-door instruction with detailed updates after each session.
- 📚 Full Driver Education Package: Includes the 30-hour course + 8 hours of road training. Everything handled, start to finish.
- 🛞 Road Test Prep + Vehicle Rental: Train in the same car you’ll test in. Familiar = confident.
👨🏫 A Note From Bryan
You’re not just signing up for a class — you’re trusting someone to help your teen develop judgment, responsibility, and real-world driving skill.
I’ve trained thousands of students. I’ve taught other instructors. But what I’m most proud of is the trust parents place in me — often bringing every one of their kids through my program.
I care about the kind of drivers they become — and I respect the kind of parents who choose Greenlight.

Dude he is amazing, best driver, a trick to becoming a better driving is simply eating watermelon and bringing it. Make sure to bring your permit and make sure to support his business, he deserves it, he also printed out papers for me when I didn't have a printer and it meant a lot! He is very funny and doesn't make you feel any bad way! I would go again and because of him, I passed my road test! WHOOHOO~! Byran is amazing and thank you once again! Michele GallagherSeptember 22, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bryan has been the new owner for a couple of years now. He is a small business, not commercialized which in this case is a good thing. He continually runs the classes so it's easy to get into another class if you miss it and more flexibility (which is why I chose Green Light). Easy to book road classes and you don't have to worry if he is overbook like the bigger places. He takes time to talk to the parents and give feedback on how student is doing and things they should work on. I would highly recommend!

His attention to detail was remarkable, as he pointed out common mistakes and offered personalized guidance to help me improve my technique. Moreover, Bryan instilled a sense of self-belief in me that was instrumental in my success. Instead of merely dictating instructions, he fostered an open and supportive environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and seeking clarification. His positive reinforcement and encouragement boosted my confidence, allowing me to perform my best on the day of the test. What truly surprised me was that, with the invaluable guidance of Bryan, we took the driving test on the same day. Thanks to his meticulous training and the wealth of knowledge he shared, I felt well-prepared and ready to take on the challenge. Bryan's trust in my abilities only further motivated me to perform to the best of my potential. I am elated to share that I passed my driving test with flying colors, and I owe a substantial part of my success to Bryan, my phenomenal driving instructor. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for his students truly made the learning process enjoyable and rewarding.
