Debbie Fey - Driving Lessons in Torbay

My name is Debbie, I cover the Torbay area (Torquay, Paignton and Newton Abbot). Having worked in business training for a large corporate company for 17 years, the work life balance was not quite right with a young family. Being a driving instructor enables me to utilise my skills, experience and love for training and coaching.

I have a passion for seeing people succeed and overcome any barriers they may have, helping someone progress a skill and accomplish a goal is so rewarding. I strive to achieve a relaxed, calm, friendly atmosphere in my car, I look forward to taking your driving journey with you.
