Pierre Paul isn’t the first driving school I’ve been to in New York, but it is, fortunately, the last one I needed, as I got my driver’s license last week thanks to the support of Ben and Wilder. A few things I worked on with Ben are gradual acceleration instead of sudden acceleration, making turns narrower instead of too wide, observing while turning, and signaling all of my intentions. Ben is quick to tell you when you make a mistake so you know what to improve on and gives you feedback every session if you ask for it. Additionally, Ben is happy to answer any question you have regarding the road test, and if there are any particular areas where you need to focus, then Ben will gladly accommodate that. One tip that Ben gave me is that when you’re doing a 3 points U-Trun, you would know to stop reversing when the mirror is about to cross the yellow lines.
Wilder was a great instructor as well; he taught me to use little to no gas on turns to ensure that the turns don’t become too wide and that they are done in a timely manner. We also worked on left turns and making sure to only make the turn when you have the right of way. Moreover, when we were doing parallel parking, Wilder taught me about the plus sign strategy to ensure that I never mess up a parallel park again. Moreover, we worked on stopping at each stop sign, whether it was an all-way stop sign or a full stop sign. Wilder takes great pride in his students and wants every one of them to pass the road test.
Overall, Ben and Wilder are both great choices of an instructor at Pierre Paul Driving School. Read Less
