Suncoast Defensive Driving School

So happy with our experience with my 16 year old so far. Her confidence in driving is growing and she is learning alot. Way more than I think I could of taught because let's be honest, the roads right now are terrifying and I would be too nervous to take her on busy roads but her instructor has done it, and was relaxed and on point with guiding her, which in turn made her less nervous. I highly recommend!

If you care about a loved one and are considering a driving school, and you want THE BEST, then stop your search and call Bill, owner of this school. There isn't enough space or enough words to give them the proper review. Amazingly talented in driving instruction. What I loved most (I loved everything) is that Bill taught using various methods to reach an auditory learner and a visual learner; from talking to the use of a whiteboard and miniature cars. This school does not miss a thing! They cover it all and the communication and professionalism is 5 star. WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Robert was very helpful teaching my daughter daughter driving skills. She responded well to his style of instruction and gained a lot of confidence in a short amount of time. Robert made sure she was well prepared to pass her driving skills test.

I have 3 teenager and used this company last year and the year before successfully with a driver named Andy who was very professional, courteous and prompt with scheduling information. This year I requested Andy but received instead Bill (who possibly may be the owner or boss). It took him a solid week to respond to me (even though I had paid in full for 6 sessions) and then he presented me with several dates a week later then reprimanded me for taking 24 hours to respond and said most of those presented dates were now taken.

Eventually a date was selected and my daughter became sick and could not attend (which i informed him of the day before) Bill did NOT attempt to text me to reschedule. I had to text him about it at least a week later when he finally did get back to me he said he was "busy" and wasn't sure when he could schedule her in and then offered me a date and time (today at 2pm) which I accepted.

Today at noon i texted Bill to make sure he was coming only to have him reply "I was unable to move anyone and have had no cancelations".Thanks Bill you probably could have texted me that a month ago. VERY POOR COMMUNICATION buyer beware

Bill is amazing. My daughter spent 4 days driving with him and she learned all of the road rules and became so much more confident with driving/ parking/ and the dreaded 3 point turn! Bill even offers a package where he picks you up from your house and takes you for your driving test at the DMV. He took care of everything. We would recommend Suncoast Defensive Driving School to anyone!

Bill was an amazing instructor. He was very thorough in his directions and provided great input. He not only really prepared me for the extensive road test, but for real life driving as well. I strongly recommend Bill as a driving instructor.

Having moved to Sarasota with a U.K driving license I had 30 days to take the Florida driving test. I had little driving experience and lacked confidence and Bill was absolutely brilliant in getting me ready for my test and for the road again. I did a 6-hour refresher course and Bill was great at making me feel at ease and passing on invaluable tips. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him.

Both my kids had a wonderful experience with Suncoast Defensive Driving School. They learned so much more from the one on one driving instruction than they could have ever learned in a group lesson. Bill and the driving instructors were all wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Suncoast Driving school to all new drivers.

Suncoast Defensive Driving School is the best around. Bill spent several hours with my husband to review his driving abilities. We have nothing but praise for Bill and the thorough report he prepared after these lessons. My husband received several helpful suggestions, which hew passed on to me. I am planning for instructions for myself in the near future

Fantastic experience with Suncoast Defensive Driving School. Bill was patient, knowledgeable, encouraging and reliable. He had my daughter so well prepared for her road test, she passed with a perfect score. We will definitely be using Suncoast for our younger children!

Suncoast Defensive Driving is by far the best driving school in the city. The owner Bill, is very professional and skilled in determining what his trainees are good at and what they need to focus on, to not only procure a drivers license but more importantly become good defensive drivers. The school is very professionally run and their vehicles are kept in clean and pristine conditions.

The trainers are extremely patient and provide very useful quick tips and constructive feedback to their trainees. Today I am a confident and a safe defensive driver, all thanks to Suncoast Defensive Driving School.
