What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

One-to-one tuition towards the practical test is what pupils describe most often at this Spondon-based school, with instructors Mukhtar, Rich, Hassan and Richard all named repeatedly by learners working to pass. A recurring theme is that many arrived after unsatisfactory experiences elsewhere, sometimes having tried two or more instructors before finding someone whose explanations finally made sense; reviewers describe gaps in earlier teaching being identified and corrected quickly.

Patience comes up constantly, alongside instructors who remain calm even with pupils suffering from significant anxiety about being on the road. Clear, well-paced explanations of manoeuvres and reference points are mentioned often, along with instructors adjusting how they explain something if the original method was not landing. Mock test preparation is noted too, with one pupil booking a late slot for feedback ahead of a short-notice test date and receiving guidance that helped avoid serious faults.

Punctuality and reliability feature frequently, with instructors described as always on time. First-time passes, often with very few minors, are a consistent outcome reported across the reviews, alongside a strong sense of gratitude for instructors who rebuilt confidence that earlier lessons elsewhere had knocked. Lessons run daily from eight in the morning until eight in the evening, suiting a range of schedules across the Derby area.

Richard is a fantastic instructor! After previously being an anxious driver with another instructor, he put me at ease every lesson and I made so much progress leading me to pass first time. Highly recommend

I started lessons with Rich after having lots of difficulties with another instructor, I am so grateful I did. I just passed my test today with only 3 minors and I couldn’t be more appreciative of my instructor for all the time, patience and support he has given during my time learning. I’ve struggled a lot with nerves, anxiety and confidence throughout my driving journey, but Rich helped me achieve the pass I have been aiming for! I highly recommend “Go2 Driving School”, especially if you struggle with anxiety or self confidence - you will learn at your own pace, being reassured and supported 100% of the way ☺️

Rich is an amazing teacher. I would recommend to everyone. I was having problems with previous instructors and confidence. Rich helped me gain confidence and helped me excel. If it wasn’t for Rich, I wouldn’t have passed so thank you

Rich is an absolutely amazing driving instructor! After having gone through 2 previous driving instructors Rich had taught me anything I wasn’t sure of and helped me improve anything I was taught wrong! He is always on time, patient and will answer any question with a great explanation. I definitely recommend him if you are looking for lessons, thank you for helping me pass!!

Richard is a brilliant instructor, always on time (or early). Very clear instructions and would change the way he explained reference points etc when he realised I was explaining them slightly different to how he did. I found him through a recommendation, when a previous instructor flaked at the thought of a driving test. Only 5 weeks before my first test Richard agreed to take me on, unfortunately failed that one due to a very unfortunate situation but had the next one booked for just a few weeks later. Passed 2nd time round with only 4 minors. Also, very flexible in terms of lesson time, with children and a full time job I only had availability for 1 hour lessons 7-8am which he had no problem with! 100% recommend Richard for a driving instructor.

I got a short notice cancellation test in Derby, though I practiced in Nottingham. I contacted Go2 Driving school last minute for a mock test. My instructor (Muktar) was so helpful and patient. His feedback helped me avoid serious faults on my driving test and passed today with 3 minors! Thanks so much Go2 Driving school and Muktar. I would highly recommend them for your driving test preparation.

Excellent tutor, he has been extremely patient and clear all the way though. I’ve had multiple instructors and Hassan was the best of them all. No time was wasted on any lessons. He is perfect for people who suffer from severe anxiety as I was terrified when I first started but after him driving is now a pleasure. Thankyou for everything Hassan and I will be recommending you to everyone I know
