Gilbert teaches techniques that will assist in reducing risk while driving. While sharing her passion for driver’s education in the classroom, she continues to teach Behind-the-Wheel at Prince George High School. Her many years of experience as a Behind-the-Wheel teacher includes both range and road instruction, which enables her to give new drivers excellent guidance as they pursue a driver’s license.
