We pride ourselves in providing candidates with the best driving lessons possible from one of the best driving schools the Midlands have to offer.
Rio Driving School began life in 2010 with one lone driving instructor - his name was Paul Fisher. Always seeking out the very best driver coaching, Paul was inspired and trained by one of the most respected driving instructors in the UK - Chris Gilbert, former Police Sergeant Advanced Driving Instructor and Police Advanced Driving Examiner, driving instructor to HRH Prince William and HRH Prince Harry.
If you are looking to learn to drive in the West Midlands then Rio Driving School can provide you with the driving lessons you need. You can be sure that with us you will learn everything you need to know to pass your driving test the first time in the minimum number of lessons. We are a small, friendly and yet professional team of local driving instructors that offer manual and automatic driving lessons to pupils of all ages and abilities.
Learning to drive is not cheap, but Rio is here to help you keep those costs down! Willenhall driving lessons can also be a lot of fun when you learn with us and our local instructors are the best in the area. Our Willenhall driving school has been voted 'Most Loved Driving School in the UK' every year since 2014.

My son had his first lesson with Paul yesterday. Paul is amazing, so calm, friendly and patient. My son was quite nervous but came home absolutely buzzing after spending 2 hours with Paul. Amazing communication... I’ve been fully informed of how my son got on with his first lesson and he can’t wait for his next lesson. The whole process has been safe during these very difficult times, the car was extremely clean and Paul was immensely professional.

We know it’s early days, but are confident Paul is going to not only teach my son to drive, but also boost his confidence and encourage belief in himself. I couldn’t recommend Paul highly enough, in fact I have already told lots of friends about him. Thank you

Couldn’t have asked for any better instructor than Paul. Made my boy feel calm, relaxed and confident after every lesson. Highly recommend Rio to all our friends and family. First time pass for my boy this morning, Thankyou so much Paul for all your hard work the past few weeks and making this morning possible

Passed my driving test around 5 years ago but had not driven since. I booked a few refresher lessons with Pete Chopra and he is a brilliant. He has helped build my confidence on the road, and was very thorough in explaining certain issues I struggled with (parking!) and I cannot thank him enough for finally being the one to get me on the road! Thank you so much.

Had around 20 lessons with my instructor Paul had two tests on witch the first I gained a few minors that was easily correctable but failed from rushing things,second test I’d had some lessons before hand and corrected all the mistakes I never thought I had which Paul had pointed out to me and went on and passed the test,great driving instructor would be the go for anyone.

My experience of Rio Driving School is excellent. The teaching was easy to follow, and my instructor, Paul, always put me at ease as I was a very nervous driver to begin with. I learn't at a pace I was comfortable with. Paul was always on time for my driving lessons. The lessons were always structured well - I always felt like I was learning something new! Rio is Award Winning - try them!!

Paul Fisher is a very calm and patient driving instructor. He made me feel calm in what I expected to be a very tense learning environment. I was very happy with how professional he was and I learned a lot from him.

Very nervous after previous experiences, swapped to Rio, was pushed all the way, faced things that I wouldn't have thought driving would have to it, hit hurdles but Sarah never gave up on me all the way and pushed me to do things I didn't want to do that has made me as confident as I am! Couldn't thank her enough and for even being there when I cried when I passed!
