Good instructor! 10/15/2010

I absolutely recommend Helms Driving School. Margaret has years of experience and teaches you not just how to move a vehicle, but also how to drive with good etiquette for other road users, your passengers and your car so that things go safely and smoothly. The key to success is listening and following Margaret's instructions. She will not let you get away with mistakes, and you may get scolded for repeated offences. But there is no disrespect and definitely no yelling in it. Being corrected is part of the learning process and she has your best interests and everyone's safety at heart. I am a new driver and I passed the road test on my first attempt. Margaret's professional instruction and friendly demeanour made everything A LOT easier. more

The best! 8/28/2009

Me and my husband both had a great experience with Helms driving school. Margaret is a wonderful teacher and its only because of her that I could learn driving in just 6 hours with no earlier experience at all. She gives you instructions about every small thing that you need to know to be a good driver.She has a lot of patience explaining to you.I was doing the same mistakes over and over again but not one time did she lose her cool.Both me n my husband got our licenses in the first attempt. I would definitely recommend Helms driving classes!!! more

Mrs. Helm Is a great Teacher 3/20/2009

Several driving schools recomend me to the Helms school for my driving lesson for my stick shift car ( manual car). The Helms driving school where knowledgable and gave me confidence in driving a manual car, which is hard to do. They help me out & gave me a lot of information on how to deal with driving on the road and handling complicated situations with confidence. So I will recomend this school to others & I assure you the quality and sincerity of their teaching is great..... Pros: Best Driving school for Automatic Cars & Stick Shift Cars more
