P.E.R.S.E.P.T.I.O.N.S. Driving School

Fantastic experience: Very relaxing environment making the start for new drivers easy and fun

Fantastic experience: I just wanted to leave this review! Back story, I’m 27 and had little to no experience with driving or the rules of the road, I also was super nervous behind the wheel. I tried taking the road test at DMV three times, simply trying to rush the process and obtain my license but I wasn’t ready. So I found this driving school on Google and so happy I did. I never thought I would achieve my goal but with the help from Jada, I did! She is a great instructor and made me feel comfortable behind the wheel, also learned how traffic patterns work! So happy I found this driving school and today I received my drivers license after 27 years!

Fantastic experience: The best experience I’ve ever had on the road! Coach K made sure I was comfortable at all times. I’ve been in a few accidents, and in my last one, I broke my collarbone, which left me with severe anxiety about driving. However, both Ms. Nat and Coach K went above and beyond to help me overcome my fear. Their patience, professionalism, and encouragement made all the difference. I highly recommend their services—whether you’re 16 or 50, you won’t regret choosing them.

Fantastic experience: Thank you, Kay, for being the best instructor with such humility, patience, and kindness. From the very beginning, you made me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Your calm demeanor and clear explanations made all the difference, especially when I was feeling nervous. I truly appreciate how you tailored each lesson to my needs and progress. Your guidance has not only taught me to drive but also gave me the confidence to face the road with assurance. I’m incredibly grateful for the support you’ve given me throughout this journey. You’ve made learning to drive an enjoyable experience. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors. I’m certain that your positive impact will continue to help many others. Thank you again for everything, Kay!

Fantastic experience: My experience was very good. My instructor Mr stoner made the experience fun and I learned new skills and improved my driving in a short time. I highly recommend this driving school.

Fantastic experience: If you want to learn to drive, you must try out this driving school! My instructor, Mr. Kayson Stoner, was professional, patient, and a great educator. I went from having never driving before to passing my test after 7 lessons (each lesson was 2 hours long) in less than two weeks. He not only prepares you for the driving test, but he gives you practical skills and feedback on how to drive well. I know that confidence is something that cannot be taught. However, Mr. Stoner is kind in his feedback and truly trains his students to be skillful in driving. I have only read positive reviews of how amazing this driving school is. If you are looking to drive in Virginia Beach area, look no further!

Fantastic experience: Mr. Stoner provides a calming and fun environment when it comes to driving. I was a beginner with zero skills when it came to driving and felt pretty anxious with driving but I can finally say at 26 years old I finally have my license ! If I had to do it over again I would come here ☺️

Fantastic experience: Mr. Stoner is a phenomenal instructor!

Fantastic experience: I was a very anxious driver but my private instructor helped me build confidence and provided a vehicle for me to practice in. I was able to get my license on the first try after my lessons!

Fantastic experience: Taught really well, didnt only teach me how to drive but was very nice and respectful, very entertaining and I was able to see improvement after the 2nd day, taught really easy and effective tricks and improved very fast.

Fantastic experience: I was a student for both the classroom and driving portion. The classroom portion is standard, not much to say about it. But, once interacting with the people behind the school, you could see the love put into it all. Testing day for thr classroom portion was comfortable and welcoming, the lady there was friendly and wonderful to talk to; she even offered to wait with me when I was to be picked up after testing. The driving portion was wondeful. In fact, I connected well with my driving instructor and the fellow students who were learning along with me. I felt like I really connected with everyone. Overall, it was an amazing and positive experience.

Fantastic experience: This Driving School is the best of the best, Mr. Stoner is a perfect driving instructor, he is always so patient and understanding to the students and teaches them everything they need to know about driving while bringing a fun, optimistic and energetic approach to every student he teaches. I am proud to say that I have learned driving from Mr. Stoner and I fully recommend the program if you are looking for a driving school to attend. 5 stars across the board.

Fantastic experience: Absolute 10/10 recommend P.E.R.S.E.P.T.I.O.N.S. driving school. The services were fantastic, from the online courses, to the behind the wheel instruction. They are extremely helpful when it comes to registering and asking questions. The online course I took was outstanding. From graphics, to videos and animations, it is very effective in helping you learn and retain information. The behind the wheel course was wonderful. They aim to boost your confidence as a driver. I didn't realize how much I could change in one week. They are a well-run, professional company, that truly cares about their customers. Again, 10/10 recommend P.E.R.S.E.P.T.I.O.N.S. driving school!

Fantastic experience: Mr. Stoner was an amazing driving instructor, on the very first day he let my partner and I know that we were going to have fun learning how to drive, but of course stay safe while doing so and we did just that.

She's really a heaven sent. I had 10hrs lesson with her. On our first day. All my worries and fear were all gone. She thought me the most important things to do while driving. She really made it easy for me to understand since I'm a foreigner. She explained it to me without making it complicated. My turns and speed got improved. I have now confidence and fearless to drive. You just have to listen and keep doing it. I really improved a lot. I can't thank Jadah enough. She's really a good instructor. When I make mistakes she would focus on your weakest and I never felt pressured. I felt so relaxed and calm, her being my instructor, that's why I was able to make it.

Fantastic experience: Mr. Stoner is an excellent driving instructor, and helped me from getting comfortable going onto the road for the first time to passing my driving test. He's very good at explaining different techniques in a way that makes it easier to understand, and a lot of concepts that I found hard to grasp in driving I was able to get because of his help. I would especially reccomend him to anyone with anxiety around driving, as he creates a welcoming and safe environment that makes it easier to build confidence on the road.

Fantastic experience: Mr. Stoner was my driving instructor and he was amazing. He’s very friendly, understanding, and knowledgeable. Not only is he an excellent teacher but he is able to create meaningful discussions and conversations from small topics. Even though his cut off for the exam is 5 marks, he’ll teach and demonstrate more than enough to help you pass the test. I credit all of my good driving skills to Mr. Stoner’s wonderful teaching style.

Fantastic experience: great teacher! very helpful. good work environment, definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Kay / Mr. Stoner was an excellent, patient and safe instructor! I'm 33 and just moved here in April from Chicago. I never learned nor needed to drive so I was starting from scratch! Kay walked me through all the important pieces, we got plenty of practice on the road, and I felt super equipped to take my test (which I passed!). I would highly, highly recommend him and the team if you're just learning like I was, need some brushing up on skills, or want a patient co-pilot to help you through some of the trickier aspects of driving. Can't recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: I wish I could give P.E.R.S.E.P.T.I.O.N.S. more than 5 stars. They are affordable compared to most driving schools. From the very first day I met Mr. Stoner (Kayson) and Mrs. Stoner (Natalie) I knew I made the right decision. Mr. Stoner is very patient, resourceful and a great instructor. I had no experience behind the wheel and some anxiety but with the help of Mr. Stoner I overcame my fear and learned how to drive at 24! He teaches you everything you need to know and is very supportive. He also takes the time to get to know you and builds a relationship with you. I’ve never felt more confident behind the wheel as i do now! If you’re thinking about singing up, it’s your sign I promise you won’t regret it! Thank you so much Mr and Mrs Stoner!

Fantastic experience: When I first started got my learner's permit, I was not the most confident driver. But when I had my first lesson with Mr. Stoner, he was calm, reassuring, and haf a welcoming demeanor. He helped me gain confidence and composure on the road. I wouldn't have been able to get my license if it weren't for him and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any learning drivers.

Negative experience: I was five months pregnant and my instructor was very rude he had gotten an attitude because I didn’t know no about a car and punched the driver seat“ an attitudez. However I had to drive around a School for hours until he said I was able to go on a road which unfortunately I didn’t

He gave her tools to use while changing lanes & parking, for example, that just boosted her confidence!!! We appreciated everything he did to help prepare her for this exciting journey!! Thank you!! The Bey Family.

Fantastic experience: I honestly don't even know where to begin. The first thing that impressed me about Mr. Stoner was his pleasant and calm demeanor. My son was anxious and stressed about learning how to drive and Mr. Stoner put him at immediate ease. Maxwell gained continued confidence as the lessons continued. Mr. Stoner's skills were as much about good driving techniques as they were about creating a mentoring environment. Although we interviewed other businesses, we did not find a peer in most categories and what was most important to us was to have our son driving in a calm and relaxing setting. Maxwell passed his driving license test this afternoon. Mr. Stoner, thank you for making that possible. Our family wishes you continued success in all of your endeavors, Dirk, Liliana and Maxwell.

The ride with him was very enjoyable and he asked some very thought provoking questions that really made it a good conversation, on top of the fact that he is a very intriguing person and has a lot of wisdom behind him. I would recommend this driving school to anyone, he made this experience so much better than I could have imagined!

He's vision impaired so he presents a bit of a challenge and knowing that I searched a great deal to find someone with that type of experience.

He's patient, knowledgeable and with the experience he has he knew EXACTLY what to focus on to improve him -everyday he came back he gave the same remark - Mr Stoner is great! with the added bonus of him being very involved in youth development.
