We work with learner drivers of all levels, and we are happy to tailor tuition around your experience. We will work with you as an individual to help you become confident behind the wheel of a manual gearbox vehicle, a safe driver and pass your test quickly – hopefully on your first attempt. Our students have an average first-time pass rate of 94%; We are very proud of this and look forward to adding you to that number.

Mike is such and amazing instructor, I’ve known him for years and years and years so it was really easy just to hop in the car every lesson, learn with him and chat with him - keeping every lesson as stress free as possible, I stressed myself out before every lesson but as soon as I got in the seat and started driving it took me 2 minutes to calm down and realise it was a normal thing and I could do it. Quickly, those months flew by, it felt as if I had learnt the basics so quick, then when we got on to the trickier stuff Mike would always break everything down into steps, show me the perfect example and coach me in all the maneuverers. Even when i failed my first test he was always so nice and kind, making sure I didn’t beat myself up - he helped me look for the positives even though I couldn’t, then every lesson after that he made double sure I would pass my next one! I loved learning to drive with Mike, highly, highly recommend him / the company as a whole too, I’m so glad / lucky to be taught by him.

Passed second time with Paul. Great instructor, encouraging, and confidence-boosting. Allows for silence and focus, but also a conversation when the driving is more relaxed. Definitely recommend, it's been a great!

Mark is an incredible instructor. Not only is he thorough and genuinely wants to teach you to be the best and safest driver you can, he also makes each lesson as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. He doesn’t just teach you how to pass, he really teaches you how to drive and now that I’ve passed I feel 100% confident in my ability going forward. I would recommend this driving school to everyone learning and it’s worth driving the extra half an hour from where I live just to meet him! Thank you Mark for all of your hard work, I’ll miss you!

Owner's reply
Thank you for your kind words Jay. Learning is not just about passing a test and it was an absolute pleasure to help you become a safe confident driver, lessons were always great fun with good banter🙂 Stay safe out there. Mark 🚙

I honestly couldn’t recommend Mark highly enough!

I came to Mark after having previously learnt to drive in London, but without ever quite feeling confident or comfortable behind the wheel. Switching to an automatic and starting again with Mark was one of the best decisions I could have made.

From the very beginning, Mark was incredibly thoughtful about the way he taught. He has a brilliant way of explaining things clearly and calmly, without ever making you feel silly for asking questions or getting something wrong. He really took the time to understand how I learnt best and, most importantly, helped me build my confidence rather than simply teaching me how to pass a test.

I definitely had a few wobbles along the way, and Mark was always brilliant at meeting me where I was whether that was feeling nervous, frustrated or having a particularly good day! He was incredibly patient, supportive and encouraging, and somehow managed to make even the stressful moments feel manageable.

Mark has been a fantastic instructor, but also just a really lovely person to spend time with. I’m very grateful for all his patience, encouragement, and wisdom, and… after passing my driving test today I can say he has made me a much more confident driver!

If you’re feeling nervous or lacking confidence about driving, I honestly couldn’t recommend Mark enough.
Thank you, Mark! 🚗👏🏻
