PAULS DRIVING SCHOOL Olney-Oak Lane, Philadelphia

Best Driving School hands down! Chris is an amazing instructor. Learned everything I needed to know for the test and more. Definitely worth the money.

Guaranteed To pass on the first try, Chris was my instructor he was so patient and made sure I was comfortable ever step of the way. He was thorough and had positive energy and feedback throughout the entire session

Pauls Driving School was amazing. Mr. Michael is a fantastic instructor and I would definitely recommended him. He is a very nice guy and is very patient with you. He made me feel comfortable and taught me everything about driving. I also had Mr. Curtis go with me on the day of my drivers test. I was very nervous about passing or not but he completely changed that. In one class with him he gave me the confidence to pass and I did. He is a great guy I highly recommend him also.

I used Pauls driving school 4 different times. It is worth the money!!! I had Al(1), Micheal(2) and the specialist(1). Each instructor was very help full in there very own way. I enjoyed Micheal the most, I learned allot from him. He teaches you allot of good pointers and goes through the driving test and parking with you. Im very hard headed and he also put up with that & helped me with my attitude of giving up. He is a great man. Im glade i had the experience to learn how to drive from an excellent driver like him. I would recommend him to anyone that wants to learn how to drive safe & smart.

Update: I wish I could give 0 stars. Unfortunately, it seems that most of the five star reviews were paid for by Al himself to make his business look good which is a sad sight. He seems to be conning individuals left and right. Doesnt properly practice driving skills but instead just takes you straight into driving and will yell at you for every little mistake that you make instead of teaching you the proper skills like a rational person. He seems to be very blunt and thats okay but whats not okay...
Read full review is scamming people and talking down on people while theyre driving, itll probably lower ones confidence and motivation to schedule another lesson with you. Never talk to AL! He is bad and will be negative towards you, find a better driving school. Such a disgrace.

My instructor was Steve and he was absolutely awesome. I had no driving experience at all when he picked me up for my first lesson, and in only 3 lesson I was ready to take my driving test and passed on the first try! I really recommend this school they make you feel comfortable and are so personable.

Al was a great instructor. He make you feel comfortable behind the wheel. Very easy going lets you know what you done wrong so you wont do it again. The car was very nice and smooth to drive. Al has camera system to let you see how you did on your lesson. I would recommend Al for all who wants to learn how to drive. I was able to get my license in a week.

I read a lot of good reviews online about Pauls driving school which played a part in me finally deciding to try it. My first lesson, I had Steve and I absolutely loved him! He was nice, friendly, a good instructor, and made me feel completely comfortable and safe on the road. I was so happy with my experience with him that I tried to set up another appointment with Steve the following week, just to found out that he took a vacation until September without informing anyone! So I thought that perhaps...
Read full review I could find another instructor from Pauls that would be just as good as Steve but I ended up with Curtis. Now, I read a lot of mixed reviews about Curtis but I thought to give him the benefit of the doubt and give it a go with him...big mistake. Curtis started off nicely enough when I first met him but I soon found out that he is incredibly arrogant, impatient, rude and just all around not a very good teacher. He would give me instructions at the last moment while driving and then yell at me for them, he would give me driving advice at the last second and then yell at me for not reacting as quickly as possible. He would randomly be on talking on his phone while I was DRIVING and give me silent hand instructions that I quickly had to learn while driving. He would talk about his phone and tried to show me things on his phone while I was trying to concentrate on driving. Even when I followed his instructions exactly, he still blamed me for things. I got so frustrated with him that I wanted to end the lesson early but I decided against it even as he grew frustrated with me, which is NOT what a teacher should do. He constantly talked about how hard driving is but it felt like he really couldnt be bothered with teaching me if he was getting frustrated with trying to teach me how to drive a complicated machine. I have incredibly bad anxiety and Curtis just made everything worse for so for my own mental health I will not be trying with Curtis again and I just may find a completely different driving school to go to. The only reason why I didnt give Pauls 1 star is simply because of the great experience I had with Steve.

Today I drove with Steve .He is the best. He makes you feel comfortable and relax. He is very patient and very nice ! I felt great. It s worth the money to spend because I got to drive 2 hours feeling good and drove great and Steve went over what to do and parallel parking was easy and he taught me a easy way to learn. If you want to learn ask for Steve he is the best !!!!! You won t regret it !!!!

I had Al has an instructor, he is great ! It was my first time driving EVER, and we went straight on the highway. ! He made me feel comfortable about my driving and gave good tips. He guides you through the whole lesson ! oh , & my mom decided to come along. so her back sit driving was helpful too. Al, allowed my mom to also feel safe being as though I never drove before. When my hour was up, he told me things I needed to improve and things that I did well. I HIGHLY recommend Al, he is patient, funny, and very good at what he does !!! thats why Im going back for my next lesson !
