Instructor Francis is patient and knowledgeable. Great guy with a great sense of humor during lessons. I appreciate his advice and tips as it allowed me to pass my road test on my first try! Thank you again for being extremely accommodating for my situation as well as he helping me out with slotting an earlier time slot to get all my lessons in before my road test. If you are thinking of a driving school, this school is the place. If you get to take lessons with Francis, he will get you ready from nothing in no time!

My instructor, Francis, was the best! He assisted me in passing the road test on the first try! Francis took the time to explain everything, helped me build my confidence, and gave me practical tips for parallel parking and the three point turn that made a huge difference. He was patient, knowledgeable, professional, and always made me feel comfortable behind the wheel. If you’re looking for a driving instructor who genuinely cares about your success and prepares you well for the road test, ask for Francis.

Francis was my older son’s driving instructor six years ago, and I was so grateful that he was able to teach my younger son six years later as well. Today, my younger son passed his road test, and we couldn’t be happier!
Francis is an absolutely outstanding instructor, patient, encouraging, professional, and truly dedicated to his students’ success. Both of my sons loved learning from him and always praised his excellent teaching style. He knows exactly how to build confidence, develop safe driving habits, and prepare students thoroughly for their road test.
It’s no surprise that both of my sons passed their road tests without any issues! I couldn’t recommend Francis more highly to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and exceptional driving instructor. Thank you, Francis, for making such a positive impact on both of my sons’ driving journeys!

I'd love to recommend Coach Francis for YOUR private lessons when you book with Golden Medal Driving School. I mean seriously, he is SO good, clear, and simple with his directives. He is very patient with you --- which I totally needed as someone completely new to the wheel --- and has a great sense of humor too. He is very formulative to the way he teaches, and makes sure to build upon each lesson and previous skills to ultimately reinforce the skills that you have already learned. With him, you'll get used to driving and thinking in "1.5 to the right, 1.5 to the left", etc. It sounds meticulous, but it's so damn helpful in remembering exactly how much you have to turn the wheel. He'll also share a multitude of tips and tricks to really help you pass the test. I would know because I passed today on my first attempt even after a month without touching a car. Which really goes to show how much his teaching can solidify in your mind even after a (what I would consider as long) hiatus. Highly recommend; I would totally take his class again. (Oh and he saved my butt from crashing really badly twice; so that's a plus!)

Gold Medal is one of the best driving schools i’ve ever attended. Coach Sam is the nicest person ever and will give you the best food recommendations. I took 5 lessons with him and passed the road test in one try. Strongly recommend asking for Sam when you apply!

Golden medal driving school was very professional in dealing with my defensive driving certificate. Quick turnaround time and the secretary was surprisingly polite.
