“The most important factors about my choice of driving school was to choose someone who could get me through my test quickly, but also had a good reputation and many positive customer reviews!Learning to drive was more difficult than I had anticipated but Steve made it easy and simple. Steve believed in the fact I could drive even when I was 17 for only 7 weeks before my test and he made driving simple and did exactly what I wanted. I could not recommend him enough I cannot believe I passed first time with only 2 minor driving faults. Would 100% recommend Steve he made driving fun and not scary or hard, but sensible and in some ways obvious”

“I started learning to drive with Williams Driving School as I was given a 6 hour gift voucher for my birthday. I picked driving up quickly with the help of my Williams Driving instructor Rodel, who was great. He would always be able to give advice with everything from the small mistakes to bigger mistakes. I found Rodel really friendly and helpful and went he went into depth with everything making it for me to learn. Now that I can drive it means me and my mates are no longer limited to Torquay as we can go where we like.I passed my test first time with one minor error; I like to say a big thanks to Rodel and Williams Driving School for helping making this possible.”

“I decided to take lessons with Williams driving school after being advised by several friends over a Facebook status I wrote asking for information on what driving school people would recommend!i defiantly wasn’t disappointed! I got paired with Rodel santos as he was the most flexible with what hours I could learn mostly being evenings! Rodel taught me a few things that I will take with me for life it’s not just about learning to drive it’s changing your life it opens up so many opportunities for you and your family and creates a independence for you as a person! I was nervous about getting into a car with a stranger as anybody would be but Rodel was so friendly as soon as I got in the car I felt completely at ease! he told me he enjoyed his job because it’s always a happy ending for the people he teaches which then boost me with confidence! I have benefited so much from driving I have three little boys that are full of energy as you can imagine and now we can leave the house come rain or shine trips to the beach are now constant and school runs will be hassle free it’s also opened up a lot more opportunities for me to commute to a evening job! Williams new I was in a rush to pass my test as is everyone the best thing about them is they don’t hold into your custom just to make more money as it benefits them if you pass because then they can take on the next waiting customer which I think a lot of companies do! I started in May and passed in July I honestly thought it would take 6 months min fantastic company fantastic people 5* treatment thank you again for changing my life !

I passed first time with James as my instructor, I couldn’t have done it without him! The support and motivation you get helps you get the confidence you need to become a driver! I’m so glad I choose James as my driving instructor, thanks for everything!

“I passed my test first time with James as my instructor; he was early to all of my lessons and made sure to record my progress so we knew what to work on. He was brilliant even when I struggled with reversing left around a corner and had a little bit of a breakdown as a result and the short period where I refused to use third gear, he was great at convincing me that reversing left is possible and third gear is kind of an important one, I would recommend him to anyone, thank you James”.

Ginnie Reilly

“I was taught by James Palmer  a truly fantastic driving experience – professional, competitive prices and a very high standard of teaching. This made passing my test simpler and less stressful as well as fulfilling my full potential behind the wheel in which I felt safe and comfortable in the hands of the instructor. Would highly recommend James he is  the best in the south west”.

“The most important criteria for me when choosing a Driving School was to have a Driving Instructor who I’d feel comfortable with.

Learning to drive was scary at first but much better than I expected it to be. My Driving Instructor Anna Wood had very good teaching methods as well as instructions which were always easy to follow.

I will be recommending to others as instructors at Williams Driving School teach well and make you feel comfortable.”
