Success stories

I always felt comfortable during my lessons with Stefan. He is understanding, including when answering every single question. I passed at my first attempt, thank you Stefan!

I really enjoyed my driving lessons with Stefan. He explains everything clearly, is patient and kind, and he has a good sense of where your individual strengths and room for improvement lie.

Stefan is very calm and patient, which made a huge difference in my learning process. From the very beginning, I felt relaxed and confident during the lessons, even in moments when I was more nervous.

I am delighted that Stefan taught my son to drive with so much joy, calm, humour and understanding. I recommend Stefan wholeheartedly.

His advice in stressful situations helped me the most: stay calm, think clearly and consciously focus on my breathing. Even on days when seemingly everything went wrong, he knew exactly how to motivate me. Thanks to him I not only drove more safely, I also became more self-confident.

Your honest opinions, feedback and good communication with your clients show a high level of professionalism. I always felt understood and got clear explanations on and off the road during all the driving lessons.

At the start I had a serious fear of driving. Thanks to his calm manner, his understanding and his open communication I was able to overcome it step by step. Today I feel safe on the road, and at the beginning I would never have thought that I would one day drive this relaxed.

I came to this driving school because of my fear of driving and it was the right decision. Stefan has a way about him that makes you dare to ask absolutely anything. He helped me observe myself better in traffic situations and understand where I could start. That was far more valuable to me than I had expected at the beginning.

Getting back behind the wheel after three years was a big hurdle for me. Over the course of the lessons I realised that a lack of knowledge was part of my fear, and that is exactly what he explained to me step by step. Thanks to him I have regained trust in myself and real joy in driving.

I came to this driving school with a huge fear of driving. He went beyond just teaching the technical side of driving, he really took the time to understand the root of my fears and helped me rationalize and overcome them. I never felt judged, only supported. Thanks to him, I can now get into a car and drive without fear, something I never thought I would be able to say.

When I was called in for an assessment drive, the road traffic office recommended that I contact a driving school beforehand. So at over 90 years of age I went back to school once more. Luckily I found in Stefan a teacher who understood me and prepared me very well.

My mother-in-law comes from Iran and does not speak German well. I was really very satisfied and impressed by how professionally and kindly Stefan advised us.

Thank you for your flexibility, Stefan. I was able to regain my fitness to drive shortly after an accident.

I had lessons with Stefan on using the accelerator ring and the hand brake. I found Stefan friendly and very attentive, exactly how a driving instructor should be. Clear feedback and patient, very pleasant communication.

I have known Stefan Plüss for many years and hold him in high regard. With his calm manner he creates trust and can take the fear away from anyone. With expertise, patience and a great deal of empathy, people with impairments are also in good hands with him.

Stefan supported us in exchanging a foreign driving licence for a Swiss one. He answers every open question, we felt taken seriously and in good hands. He genuinely cares about the success of his learners and does not put his own interests first.

The Swiss driving test was the third I've taken. Although I already knew how to drive, I wasn't familiar with the Swiss traffic rules and road signs. Having Stefan as my instructor gave me the confidence and knowledge I needed to drive safely and comfortably in Switzerland.

He quickly identifies your weaknesses, explains them in a practical and memorable way, and gives you the time and space to correct them through practice. Of course, there are no guarantees and success always depends on your own practice, but taking Stefan's driving courses truly maximizes your chances of passing the driving test.

I registered with Stefan in order to convert my driving licence into a Swiss one. He recommended and supplied materials to learn the Swiss traffic rules, which were also available in English, and was very calm, patient and thorough in explaining mistakes. He was also willing to answer any questions I had in between driving lessons. I passed my driving test with relative ease thanks to him.

What I appreciated most was how well the entire process is organized: easy and clear booking of lessons, convenient 1.5-hour sessions, and the possibility to give and receive feedback. Despite having more than 20 years of driving experience outside Switzerland, I learned a lot of new and important things that are essential for safe and confident driving specifically in Switzerland.

Moving up to a larger vehicle, 2026

I signed up with Stefan so that he could get me used to the larger dimensions of my new vehicle and to the driver assistance systems that were completely new to me, adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist, over a few lessons. Calmly and patiently he took away my respect for the bigger dimensions on drives through narrow streets, and he let me try out the assistance systems until I felt confident enough to drive with them on my own.

I consulted Stefan because of severe exam anxiety before my neurodivergent daughter's practical driving test. He has deep knowledge of learning to drive with neurodivergence. My daughter passed the practical driving test, not least thanks to this valuable support.
