Apollo Driving School

Apollo Driving School was founded in 1993 and is based in Kingston upon Hull. The instructor Lance is a DSA grade 'A' instructor. The school offers manual lessons only and does not teach in automatics. It provides a fully structured course of lessons to suit individual needs, with door-to-door service and one-to-one tuition.

Lessons are available for complete novices to experienced drivers of all ages, as well as refresher lessons to keep up to date with modern driving techniques and updated Highway Code laws. Block bookings, discounts, and gift vouchers are offered. The school was voted one of the best three driving schools in Hull by ThreeBestRated.co.uk.

First-time learners as well as older adults returning to lessons after a long gap describe a similarly steady and encouraging experience with instructor Lance at this Hull-based school. Reviewers repeatedly highlight his patience and calm approach, particularly for pupils who had previously struggled or lacked confidence, and several mention passing first time with no driving faults recorded. An observation shared by more than one reviewer is how manoeuvres and mistakes are explained without pressure, with lessons adjusted to each pupil's comfort level rather than following a rigid pace.

One account describes multiple family members learning with the school over time, while another pupil needed a third attempt before passing, crediting the continued support received throughout that process. Several reviews describe Lance as easy to talk to and good humoured, qualities linked repeatedly to pupils feeling relaxed and confident behind the wheel. Pupils note that lessons focus on genuine understanding of driving skills rather than simply rushing towards a test date, with explanations pitched to suit each individual's pace. The school is based at Aldenham Park in Hull and operates Tuesday to Friday during standard daytime hours, giving pupils a consistent weekly structure for lessons through to test day.
