Gainesville Driving School

Experiencia fantástica: Very happy with how this turned out. It eased my nerves a ton and I got my license with no issues. Just FYI, this school is a derivative of another driving school in Jacksonville called Jax Driving School. They only have one instructor here in Gainesville, and two of my lessons had to be delayed due to some personal emergencies he had, but he was otherwise a great instructor. Also, I recommend calling them directly if you have any questions or want to schedule lessons. Their website is quite outdated and inaccurate.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience getting my driver's license with them. Their office in Gainesville is closed right now so they basically operate out of Jacksonville. They still have driving lessons in Gainesville though. The driving instructor Ralph was the best, very patient and understanding. He made passing the road test very easy. I could just afford it but it was worth every $.

Experiencia negativa: I think they're closed??? There's nothing on their website saying so, but I've tried contacting them multiple times and went to their main building near UF and it's now a construction site with new apartments. Not sure if they moved, but I can't get in touch with them!

Experiencia fantástica: Alex and Daniel are great instructor. They helped me pass the road test so easily.

Experiencia fantástica: Very great place. The driving instructor Daniel was a great, patient and clear. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm very glad I took the intermediate course. My instructor Daniel was extremely patient, paying careful attention to my learning process and giving me timely feedback that helped me improve a lot. I was able to overcome that initial nervousness and tailor the course to learn and practice different maneuvers until I felt confident. Alex was equally patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend taking lessons with them!

Experiencia fantástica: Good academy. I felt pretty confortable with Daniel.

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel was very patient, knowledgeable, and all around fun to drive with. I took the 1-hour session and was more than pleased with the results (97% and passed!). He preps you for all aspects of the test and teaches you anything that you're not familiar with. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience I took a 6-hours driving class and i am glad i did that. Daniel was my instructor. He is a very proffesional and patient trainer. Now i feel comfortable on road and i have a lot of confidence while driving . I’ll definitely refer anyone that needs lessons!

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel is a patient driving coach.At the same time, he’s fun to talk to and knowledgeable.It was a great experience here at Gainesville driving school.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience . For person like me who never had a driving experience , they made me to learn everything that too salute to the patience of their driving coach Mr. Daniel. He is an awesome guy who ignited in me the confidence that I can drive and he literally made me to learn driving that too within a period of just 10 classes. Hat’s off to the driving school guys. I will definitely recommend GAINSVILLE DRIVING SCHOOL to all my friends who are looking for driving school classes. Thank you so much for making me more confident.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing instructor and is really calm, nice and really such a great teacher. Would definitely recommend this instructor

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel is really awesome. He is very polite and patient. I think he developed a very fantastic teaching philosophy to make people confident in and interested in driving. I used to fail road tests because of my dangerous lane changing in the other state. I was really frustrated and freaked out when I had to do the lane changing on the road. It is really like a magic that after several lessons with Daniel that I overcame those fear and became confident in doing that. Alex is the instructor who gave me the test. He is also a nice and patient guy:) I strongly recommend this driving school.

Experiencia fantástica: They know what they're doing, all about constructive criticism. They have tons of experience, made driving real easy. Daniel is a great teacher y también Alex. Lo mejor, y se habla español.

Experiencia fantástica: I don’t remember the mans name I believe it’s Daniel that graded my test but I can say that he is such an amazing instructor. He was very detailed and very helpful before we started . Especially when he knew I was nervous he helped me feel more confident once I got it done. I’d definitely recommend him to anybody and I’d even recommend the school even though I didn’t go to them for my class I’d definitely recommend them!

Experiencia fantástica: Before this driving school, the thought of being on the road and behind the wheel was intimidating. However, as soon as I met my instructor Daniel, I felt like I’ve been driving for years. He’s calm and patient along with being a wonderful person to be around. I’m someone who is somewhat shy around people and Daniel was really easy to talk to. He increased my confidence with driving ten folds the first day, and where I didn’t feel a tiny bit nervous driving on the interstate. This school is definitely worth it and I would recommend everyone who’s afraid or apprehensive about driving to try out this school.

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel gave me the instructions and it was great. He is very friendly and understanding. I took the test with Alex and he made me relax and was amazing as well. Definitely recommend this school!

Experiencia fantástica: Already had my learner's permit so I did the 2 hr+E Class Driver's License package for $250 and have no regrets!. Basically, Daniel the instructor spent 2 hrs with me for a quick practice run through of the exam material before the actual test with Alex, the proctor. If you want, they'll even drive you to the tax collector afterwards to get your license issued on the spot, then they drive you back home. All in the same day. Super fast and straightforward. 10/10 would recommend this route to anyone who's already had their permit.

Experiencia fantástica: S/o to Daniel he was a great instructor!
