Fantastic experience: Turning Rejection into Triumph: A Success Story with Volta Driving School I am thrilled to share my journey of passing the driving test on 27/11/2023 under the exceptional guidance of Volta Driving School. My success is not just a personal achievement but a testament to the unwavering support and professional excellence provided by Volta Driving School, especially after facing rejection at the last minute from another driving school. My initial experience with another driving school was disheartening, as I faced rejection at a critical juncture. However, this setback became a turning point when I decided to enrol with Volta Driving School. From the outset, the contrast in the level of commitment and professionalism was evident. The instructor at Volta Driving School not only understood the challenges I faced but also demonstrated exceptional patience and expertise in addressing them. He assessed my strengths and weaknesses, tailoring the lessons to focus on areas that needed improvement. The personalised attention and constructive feedback were instrumental in building my confidence and refining my driving skills. Volta Driving School's way of teaching goes beyond just preparing for the test; it emphasises cultivating a comprehensive understanding of road safety and responsible driving. The instructors not only imparted the necessary technical skills but also instilled a sense of awareness and responsibility on the road. What sets Volta Driving School apart is its commitment to turning challenges into opportunities for growth. The rejection I faced elsewhere became the catalyst for a more profound and successful learning experience with Volta Driving School. The supportive and encouraging atmosphere created by the instructor played a pivotal role in transforming my initial setback into a resounding triumph. I am immensely grateful to Volta Driving School for not only helping me pass my driving test but for turning a challenging situation into a positive and enriching learning journey. If you find yourself facing obstacles on the road to obtaining your driver's license, Volta Driving School is not just a school; it's a partner in your success. I wholeheartedly recommend Volta Driving School to anyone seeking not only excellent driving instruction but also an instructor that genuinely cares about your success. Thank you, Volta Driving School, for turning my rejection into a remarkable success story.

Fantastic experience: I'm glad I came across Kwaw! I had another instructor before him who totally let all their students down by failing their instructor test and not being able to keep teaching. So, I got the chance to compare two driving instructors, and let me tell you, the difference was huge! Kwaw really knows how to teach you the basics solidly, so you always feel confident on the road and can kick that hesitation to the curb. We had just one month to get ready for my practical test, and we did this intense 30-hour course – nailed it on my first try! I'm seriously thankful I found him I wouldn't have been able to pass without his help!

Fantastic experience: I was with Kwaw for a few months and he was able to help round my skills before my test. I found sometimes there was too much talking but otherwise I highly recommend Volta Driving.

Fantastic experience: I came to Kwaw as a mature learner with a longstanding and deep-seated anxiety of driving. Kwaw is very methodical in his approach which suited me to a tee. Step by step he built up my skills and confidence despite me struggling to an unusual degree with certain elements. He also encouraged me to keep going in my moments of doubt. Yesterday I passed my test first time with 0 faults, which tells you everything you need to know about Kwaw's abilities as an instructor! It's clear from the start that he really believes in turning students into good confident drivers for life, not just making a quick buck like some other unscrupulous instructors might. He'll never send you to a test unless you're absolutely ready. Kwaw is also very communicative and good spirited to boot but manages to get the balance of seriousness and jolliness just right, so lessons are always productive but also fun. He's very punctual and flexible and never lets you down. And his car is very easy to learn in too! Overall, for someone who used to believe that driving was beyond their reach I shall be forever indebted to Kwaw for at first seeing potential in me, then guiding me step by step along my sometimes bumpy journey and eventually taking me over the finish line in a pretty spectacular fashion. Can't imagine learning to drive with a better instructor, thank you, Kwaw!

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is an absolutely wonderful driving instructor and I always looked forward to my driving lessons. I started with absolutely zero driving experience and now I've passed my test first time. He explained everything in detail, was patient, and really helped me build up my confidence as a driver. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Because of COVID and intermittent lockdowns and driving test cancellations I ended up taking lessons with Kwaw on and off for almost 2 years. During that time he was always patient, flexible and helped me make sure that I was building the right skills to pass my driving test. I just passed a week ago and couldn't be happier. I would highly recommend Volta Driving to anyone learning to drive or needing to improve their driving confidence.

Fantastic experience: An exceptional tutor for driving. I had no private practice, intermittent availability to drive due to COVID. But he was clear, precise and knew exactly what was needed to pass. I passed first time and feel very comfortable driving. An absolute must to choose if in Reading.

Fantastic experience: I was nervous about learning to drive and had not an ounce of knowledge about driving or how to drive. I chose well as my instructor was patience, kind, prompt and reliable. He made sure I not only learnt every part of driving but the reasons behind we do what we do when driving. Highly recommended! Because of the excellent and high quality teaching I recieved I was able to pass my exam 1st time. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Very good overall experience, and despite intermittently learning due to covid I managed the first time pass. Very happy.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is THE BEST driving instructor around. I have had a really good time learning to drive with Kwaw, This man built me from the ground up, really focuses on the finest details and he truly cares about the learning process. He built my confidence and skills to make me into a good safe driver. I took my 1st driving test today and passed with only 1 minor fault. He is a very happy and funny guy, any lesson with Kwaw will never be boring. I would highly recommend Kwaw to absolutely anybody who is learning to drive Thank you so much!! Zak

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing driving instructor. Calm, polite and very helpful. I passed first time with ease whilst balancing uni work with the lessons.

Going to miss the weekly chats and conversations. Thanks Kwaw!!

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is a great instructor, would highly recommend. Passed on my first test.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is such a fantastic teacher I would highly, highly recommend his lessons to anyone wanting to learn. I was not a beginner, I had had lessons in the past but I had no confidence in my ability to drive and driving made me extremely nervous. Kwaw has a methodical approach to teaching which helps develop a driver from any standard, a calm demeanor and is always helpful and explains any aspect of driving thoroughly so you develop a real understanding of how to drive as well as how the car itself works. I have learnt with other instructors and Kwaw is hands down the best. I passed first time and I couldn't have done it without his patience and in depth approach.

Fantastic experience: driving instructor was chill as can be, taught me everything i needed to know and more, would highly recommend to anyone

Fantastic experience: Big up Kwaw great guy taught my friend and would 100% recommend

Fantastic experience: I can not recommend Kwaw enough! If you’re looking to not only pass your test but to pass with flying colours and be set up for safe driving for life - Volta driving school is your answer. Kwaw is a great instructor, explaining things simply and in a way that you will personally best understand. His knowledge is sound and comprehensive. A lovely guy who has your best interests at the forefront of all he does, I will certainly miss my two hour weekly lesson slots! Thank you for all the time and for the skills you have given me. All the very best. Rebekah.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is a brilliant instructor and a very nice man. He brought me up to the necessary skills to drive safely from very little experience. I passed first time and breezed through it with the help of all his knowledge. Kwaw has been very considerate with changing of test dates and lesson plans due to a shoulder surgery I had to undergo. He is calm and understanding. I couldn't say a bad word about him! Thank you very much.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is simply the best driving instructor in Reading Berkshire area. I wouldn’t have passed my test without his experience, good communication Skills and most of all his friendliness . He made me confidence on the road....Thank you KWAW

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is a very patient and thorough driving instructor. He knew exactly what I needed to learn to become a better driver. I would highly recommend Kwaw to anyone looking for a great teacher with a lovely personality.

Fantastic experience: Today I have passed test on first attempt. Since first lesson I noticed Mr Kwaw is very professional along with rich knowledge in his area. Disciplined , cool, calm and pleasant personality. Beside other technical point learning , he also helped and encouraged me like how to control and perform well in actual test.

Fantastic experience: After receiving many recommendations when sourcing a driving instructor I decided to go with Kwaw and all I can say is I'm so glad I did. From the start Kwaw was so easy to get along with and was very knowledgeable and also had a calming persona about him that he would even make the most nervous of drivers relax. If you listen to Kwaw you will be driving in no time as the way he communicates with you is in a way you will never forget how to drive sensibly. Don't hesitate and give Kwaw a call if you are looking to learn to drive, you will not be disappointed.

Negative experience: This guy is the most negative driving instructor ever, absouloutley awful

Fantastic experience: What can I say about Kwaw! He is the kindest most patient person on this earth! He taught me the fundamentals of driving giving me the best understanding. Kwaw understood me and the way I learn and went at my pace. He reassured me when I was having a moment and would know just what to say. Kwaw, Thank you for everything you are the best driving instructor going and I could not recommend you enough.

Fantastic experience: Before I met Kwaw I thought I knew how to drive, I was completely wrong. Kwaw has taught me so many valuable skills in driving that I can keep for the rest of my life. Very patient and understanding, simply the best instructor in Reading!

Fantastic experience: Migrating from Europe to UK I didn't drive 4 years. Kwaw helped me understand the Highway Code, how a multi-lane system works on roundabouts because we don’t have a so complicated driving system in my home town and he helped adjust my driving on the left side of the road. He also shared with me his experience and he refreshed my awareness about other road users habits or ‘’simplifications’’. His technique is simple and straightforward instilling a safe driving attitude to his tutees and he always encourages his students. Most of all he is an amazing person and I am very happy I met him.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw was highly recommended to me by my sister, and as soon as I started my lessons I saw why! He explains everything very clearly and I saw myself make very quick progress, and thankfully passed first time!

Fantastic experience: I wanted to learn how to drive quite quickly as I was expecting a baby. I started in the June and passed in Sept without any previous lessons. All thanks to Kwaw, he was so patient and knowledgeable he explained everything so well. Always accommodating and making time for me in his busy schedule as he knew how quickly I wanted to be on the road. Honest, trustworthy, builds confidence and genuinely cares. He wants to get the best out of you and have you doing your test when appropriate not for the money. Just a nice guy, easy to be around and enjoyable lessons.

Fantastic experience: After trying lessons with a different local instructor, and struggling to make any sort of progression with my driving abilities; I got in touch with Kwaw. A really friendly and down to earth guy who knew how to get the best out of me and in the quickest time possible. He made every lesson enjoyable and within no time I took my test and passed first time. I now swear by him and recommend him to anyone I know in need of lessons. Probably the best driving instructor in the area.

Fantastic experience: absolutely fantastic Kwaw was very nice and i felt it was well worth the money , went to Volta after leaving a well known driving school who were adding more lessons on for profit , Volta was different , after my first lesson he asked me to put in for my test and after only six lessons i passed my test first time with no minors , Thank you Volta truly a driving school thats not in it for the money.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience learning to drive with Kwaw as my instructor. He has a very professional approach and also really helped me to build my confidence. I passed first time.

Fantastic experience: Kwaw, very friendly and doesn’t waste time, worth the money.

Fantastic experience: I am recently new to learning with Kwaw but his experience and teaching is high standard. I already feel more confident and am excited for my next lesson.

Fantastic experience: Thank you Kwaw. You taught me to be confident driver and I am very grateful.

Negative experience: Very inconsiderate to his pupils. Goes away and doesn’t even text to apologise

Negative experience: Was a good instructor, went on holiday right before my test. Didn’t come back when he told me he would and I’ve had to wait 3 4 months since to take my driving lesson. Hasn’t replied to any of my texts to apologise either

Negative experience: Unfriendly response on enquiry

Fantastic experience: Kwaw is an amazing driving instructor, great learning experience!
