Paul’s a great driving instructor — very systematic and knowledgeable. I learned with him toward the end of my 120 hours, working on polishing up some parking and developing disciplined timing with mirror and head checks, but I can easily recommend Doors Driver Training to anyone at any stage of their learning to drive.

My experience with Paul was extremely positive. I met him after having already done some hours of driving and he helped me to get much more confident on the road. Being both calm/ quiet persons we got along well and when I did get stressed or nervous, he would handle the situation very professionally, and would reassure me. On the days (and hours) leading up to my drive test he kept encouraging/ supporting me which helped reduce a lot of pressure, and I ended up passing thanks to him!!

Paul is an amazing driving instructor. He is clear with his instructions and has a very chill, easy-going attitude that immediately puts you at ease behind the wheel. He took me out on a huge variety of roads. We practiced everything from quiet neighborhood streets and scenic rural areas to busy highways and the high-traffic CBD roads. This variety gave me good confidence handling different environments and heavy traffic. I also appreciate that he gave me lots of tricks & tips and also teaches you the practical, everyday basics that often get overlooked. He showed me how to fill up the car with petrol and how to pump the tires etc —things that sound simple but are incredibly helpful to learn if you have never done them before. If you want a calm, thorough, and highly supportive instructor who makes learning to drive stress-free, definitely go with Paul!

I did the myLearners free lesson with Paul, and I cannot praise him highly enough. Paul is a confident, clearly experienced instructor who has such a calming demeanour. In my first lesson with a professional instructor, he assessed my level of experience quickly and accurately and tailored a drive to effectively reinforce my fundamentals, and give me confidence to take the next steps with my Learners' driving. He makes safe driving clear and logical, and is an excellent communicator. I highly recommend him to any learner driver partially through their hours seeking to build confidence and skills.

Paul is a wonderfully supportive and gentle instructor, giving a holistic view of what can be expected on and off the driving test. His supportive and calm energy was immensely welcome before the test. Highly recommended.
