Couldn’t recommend a driving instructor more! Kam was so supportive in every lesson, always encouraging me and helping me build my confidence on the roads. His explanations of different road situations and how to manage each one were excellent and allowed me to have a better understanding of urban driving. Overall, Kam is an amazing instructor and I am so thankful for his patience and support as it allowed my to pass first time with only 2 minors!

I paid for an initial assessment and was told that, with two lessons per week, I could prepare for my test on 31 July, which was in around four weeks away. After one further two-hour lesson, I was told that I needed at least 20 additional hours and that use of the instructor’s car for the test could not be confirmed. I understand that an assessment may change, but this was a major shift. Unfortunately, the reliability and clear communication promoted on the website did not reflect my experience.

Can’t thank Lee enough for his time and dedication for helping me over the last few months with building my confidence back up and encouraging me to get back behind the wheel again, he really has changed my perspective when it comes to driving and I can’t thank him enough! Anyone who is starting to learn to drive or wants refresher lessons, Lee is your man - he really is a credit to this company and overall a genuine nice guy. Thanks again Lee 😁

I had over 80 hours of automatic lessons with Lee and he was fantastic! I was initially was put on a waiting list but this was communicated well and expected wait times made clear. In lessons, Lee was calm and patient and helped me build confidence quickly behind the wheel. He always explained things clearly, adapted his teaching to suit how I learn, and never made me feel judged when I made mistakes. Thanks to his encouragement and expertise, I passed my driving test with zero faults – something I never thought I'd achieve!

A big thank you to Mr Lee for the mock test lesson. It was incredibly helpful and gave me a clear understanding of what to expect on the day, which really boosted my confidence. I’m delighted to say that I passed my driving test on my first attempt with only 2 minors! Thank you for all your support and guidance.

A huge thanks to Martin for helping pass my manual test on the first attempt! Martin was an excellent instructor; very detail-oriented and he helped me gain confidence in my ability on the road. I have already recommend him to my friends!

I recently passed my test with help of Martin, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him enough. I first started learning to drive back in 2023 in my hometown and unfortunately failed my test three times. After moving to Manchester for university, I decided to start lessons again, and that’s when I started learning with Martin. Before, I used to make a lot of mistakes because I lacked confidence while driving. Martin really helped me to build my confidence and taught me to drive safely and calmly. He was always patient during lessons and gave great advice that really helped me to improve. Thanks to Martin’s support, I passed my test with only two minors. Martin is also very reliable, has excellent communication, and always made me feel comfortable behind the wheel. I never felt nervous before lessons and genuinely enjoyed every lesson. Thank you so much Martin I truly couldn’t have done it without your help. Thank you for always believing in me! Olivia
