West Point Driving School

Update: The lessons are finished, and my daughter passed her driving test the first time...only missed 1 point. Yay!

Instructors are amazing.  They are professional, honest, courteous and very knowledgeable.   Always on time.  I definitely recommend them to all my family and friends.

Thank you West Point Driving School for providing such great instruction. My twin boys passed their in-person driving test last week. I was very impressed with the level of instruction from Paul. He was very methodical and gave no-nonsense information to my boys. I had heard nightmares from friends who went through other programs where the instructors were basically just passengers. Not so here. Great experience, thanks.

The owner Paul gave exceptional customer service going above & beyond to ensure my daughter could get her last driving session in before her driving test this weekend. I'm confident she will pass her test. He made her feel comfortable, and she raved about him after their driving session. I will be using West Point again to help teach my son to drive.

Great Instructors! Good curriculum, straight to the safe driving. Our 16 year old son passed Driving test with the first try.

I recommended to my 90+ dad that he should enroll in a session to evaluate his driving skills to be clear on any deficiencies. He drove with Paul Burton who, afterward, provided me with a clear, knowledgeable evaluation. He recorded our conversation and provided that by email so that I could share it with my dad for discussion and reference. Very professional and accommodating. I would recommend to others who may be in need of a refresher driving course. Thank you West Point Driving School.

Loved this place everyone here was so nice and provided my daughter with knowledge to pass her test. The instructor made her relax and we were able to drive with her during her lesson. They worked around her schedule and even after the instructor had to cancel her last lesson because his car was involved in a hit n run (Not his FAULT) the office called me the next day to reschedule within a few days. Very professional.

This is a wonderful driving school!!!!!!! I'm a 24yo Ukrainian girl and never had a proper driving training. I needed a license because it was  pretty impossible to get around here without a car. I took 6 hours of training with the school, and - oh my god - passed the test today from the 1st try. I've made an incredible progress over the 6 hours and even drove home from DMV after the test on my own, alone in the car!!!!!! Special thanks to Megan who is great at coordinating the lessons and working around your time and special requests, and thanks to Paul, Dean and Brian for for wonderful training! Highly recommend!!!!

Excellent driving school! Our daughter completed her 6 hour training and has learned a lot from her instructors; whom are friendly and helpful. It was also nice that I was able to come along for the ride and learn some good driving tips and see which areas we needed to work on more on our own. Highly recommend and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Excellent customer service.  My daughter really liked her instructor, Mike.  Good value as well.

West Point Driving School
Getting a license doesn't have to be terrifying! The team at West Point driving school made it a top-notch experience. Megan, their administrative assistant, was professional, yet friendly, each and every time we spoke. Mike, the driving instructor, was extremely competent and relaxed as he taught and turned over the wheel to our teenager. He made a lasting impression and is highly recommended by us! Thank you, West Point!!

I called West Point after I bought a 3-lesson package with another driving school. I had difficulty scheduling my daughter's final lesson prior to her DMV appointment with the other company (I had called the other company 3.5 weeks before the DMV appointment, and they had no time slots AND refused to reimburse me.) Thankfully, West Point was able to verify their previous hours my daughter already logged with the other driving school and EASILY took care of scheduling the final lesson with them. Thank you, West Point! Great service!!

I highly recommend West Point Driving School! I experienced nothing but professionalism from these folks, and was very impressed with the vehicles. When the instructor arrived on time with a very new and clean vehicle, I knew I made a great choice. Scheduling was easy and very flexible to my busy schedule, I'm definitely going to be calling again.

I have had 2 kids use West Point Driving School a couple years apart, and we were very please with the results and service both times. Their office staff was great about setting up appointments that worked with our schedules.

Most importantly, when our kids were done with their hours they felt prepared for their test and passed on their first try.

We have had great experiences with West Point Driving School for our two daughters. Our son will be jumping in in August 2019.
All 3 instructors we've had have been excellent.
We recommend highly...

Have had two boys complete driving school with West Point.  Their communication and scheduling is always good and they are very helpful with the entire process in general.  Both boys passed the first time

Paul and his team are a group of professionals who are great at what they do. The instructors are prompt, calm, and give great instructions and feedback for learning purposes. My son got to be a better driver because of them and is set to take the behind the wheel test soon. Westpoint Driving School is truly a reputable company that stands behind their service in preparing others for driving. Because of this, I've already recommended them to my nephew who is scheduled to start soon.

Our family is extremely happy with the services of West Point Driving School, Roseville, CA. Driving instructor, Brian, did a terrific job teaching our son to drive. Brian was always on time when he arrived at our home to pick up our son in the West Point Driving School car to begin each lesson. Brian has a great personality for working with teenagers learning to drive.  He is professional, knows what to teach and how to effectively achieve the goals of each separate lesson (in-town driving, freeway driving, navigating roundabouts, and night driving). We liked Brian's work with our son so much, we purchased additional lessons so our son could log more hours of experience under his guidance. Meghan answers the company's phone, handles scheduling and billing. She is very pleasant, patiently answered all my many questions, and called us a few days ahead of each lesson as a courtesy reminder. Brian, driving instructor at West Point Driving School, earned our trust and we are happy to recommend him.

great program - daughter passed first driving test and is on the road.  really liked the quality of instructors too!

Kind customer service to make appointments. Safe profesional service from all instructors. Gave my daughters the confidence and  good training to start driving. We will recommend this driving school to everyone in the Sacramento area.

The instructor I had for my first lesson was a little weird and had me turning a very specific way. By specific way I mean he instructed me to use a weird hand placement that wasn't natural and insisted I didn't use hand over hand when first learning to drive. I really struggled with this throughout the lesson and didn't make much progress with him. He then made a slightly rude comment about me not making enough progress. The second instructor I had for my freeway lesson was very nice, but didn't give me much feedback throughout the lesson. The only time I really got good feedback was at the end of the lesson when he was reviewing my progress with my parents. My third lesson was very useless. The third lesson you are supposed to be preparing for your behind the wheel test. The only preparation the instructor did with me was telling me about the backing up. He specified that the DMV has different variations of routes so he couldn't necessarily take me on the exact route I would take for my driving test. But he didn't really lay out what I would need to do and what I should expect. I had no idea what mistakes would dock me points because he didn't go over that. I had to ask what mistakes would make me automatically fail and he didn't say much. He also began to talk badly about other driving schools and made accusations about their driving instructors during my lesson which I thought was both inappropriate and unprofessional. Overall, I think the lessons definitely made some impact, but for the price, these lessons weren't worth it and I wouldn't necessarily recommend using this driving school.

Great first experience with my daughter's first lesson! Paul is a great teacher. Very patient and explained things very well to get the most of our 2 hour lesson. I feel my daughter is off to a great start thanks to Paul!

Great experience here. Had ben as driving instructor. Really cool guy, very informative, patient and a good teacher. Also parents can come along if they want. Excellent experience and customer service, would recommend to anyone. many friends of mine have gone through west point and had a similar experience.

This is an excellent choice for a driving school! The customer service was great and everyone was very friendly. The driving instructor Ben was such a nice guy and took so much time to go over everything with my daughter. He made her feel comfortable and was very patient. He had a lot of knowledge on the actual dmv test and everything he said was correct. My daughter passed her test the first time. I feel he really prepared her well for this and would absolutely recommend this place. Thanks!

This is THE BEST place to learn driving. I have taken a few lessons from them and the instructors are really very good. I learnt from Dan, Mike, Damien, and one more gentleman (cannot recall his name) and all are very exceptional in teaching. They were very polite. They teach you wonderfully and at a pace that you are comfortable with. If you say you want to feel comfortable in changing lanes, or making turns, or parking, or whatever, they will help you learn it and become comfortable. I have never driven all my 40 years of life and to get behind the wheel at this age was really scary for me. But, the instructors here did an awesome job and have successfully instilled confidence in me. Today, I drive to my work on I-80 --pretty confidently.I have been wanting to write this review for sometime. But, today, I decided to sit down and pen down what I felt about this institution. I would 100% recommend this driving school to anybody who wants to learn driving.Even the lady in the front office, Ms. Megan, is extremely polite and helpful. Thanks so much!

Loved it !!! I have to take 6 hours behind the wheel and I just did my 2 hours I can't remember my instructors name . But it was An amazing 2 hours behind the wheel .. I did a bunch of u-turns, drove down main streets and in traffic switching lanes and everything . My instructor was so funny and nice .. No pressure at all if I did something wrong . I can't wait to go back for my second 2 hours !!! Would tottaly recommend this place to anyone !

You see all these previous reviews were from some time ago.. West point now i believe only has two instructors Mike and Damien. I originally had Mike and my goodness he is an HORRIBLE instructor... Please don't use West point because chances are you will get Mike.. He is an former cop and this was my following experience...-Screams and passively glares at you if you do anything wrong or not to his liking instead of being an respective adult and telling you in a proper manner-Makes you feel very uncomfortable and belittles you for not knowing how to drive when you a new driver-As a new driver you are already anxious and very scared of driving and Mike only adds pressure and does NOT instruct you very well.Its not that Mike is being hard on the rules or just making you a better driver, the way he treats his students is very degrading.. Literally after my first lesson i was crying my eyes out because of such an experience.. I seriously did not want to learn how to drive because of my first lesson. With my horrible experience with Mike i called to change my instructor with Damien which was much much more successful, Damien is a very patient and firm which is a great balance.But still as a business it should be a golden rule to treat your customers with respect and make them feel at ease, I was still disappointed and thought it was ridiculous that i had to change my instructor because Mike was being an ass. Go with a different driving school because chances are Mike will be your instructor. I would NEVER NEVER NEVER recommend this place to anyone.

I highly recommend West Point Driving school. As a parent I was welcomed and even encouraged to ride along so I knew what my Son needed to work on. Mike, a retired officer was his instructor. Ask for him, he is a great instructor with tons of experience & patience. Another thing I liked about West Point was they were teaching him to drive, not just pass the test. He also got plenty of freeway time, something other schools charge extra for. Three days after his last session he passed his test on his first try. Thank you Mike and West Point Driving school.
