To learn effectively, student drivers need to be calm and comfortable. That's why we list all the information that learner drivers care about when booking their first driving lesson.
Here is our breakdown for learning to drive in Nottingham with a male driving instructor and driving school.
It's important to learn to drive with someone you feel comfortable with. Whether that instructor is male or female, is fully up to the learner driver. If you have a preference then that will help put your mind at ease when learning to drive.
Paul has been absolutely amazing in teaching me to drive. After trying two different instructors prior to Paul, he was a breath of fresh air. So patient and so understanding and really keen to get you ready for your test! I built up some anxiety due to my past instructors and he helped me to completely overcome that and regain my confidence behind the wheel. I passed my test first time and two weeks later, I’m driving down the M1 like I’ve been driving for years.
Paul is such a calm and wonderful driving instructor, he's so insightful and encouraging and helped me pass with only 4 faults after a intensive course of driving lessons. I highly recommend him to everyone and anyone :)
Excellent instructor! I went through 2 other driving instructors over the past year until I was taught by A6 Driver training over the Christmas holidays – very patient, flexible and made me feel very comfortable, couldn’t recommend more!
I must give Paul 5 stars because he didn’t only get me ready for my test but got me ready for the roads. A true driving teacher and not a con man out for easy money. I really can’t recommend Paul enough as he has got me and my partner through our tests. Thank you once again Paul you have changed our lives with getting us on the road!
Paul is an amazing instructor. He is very experienced and got me ready to be on the road straight away. Couldn’t thank him enough for getting me pass my test first time.
John made sure I was always able to have a lesson when best suited me. The teaching style was great: there were clear lesson plans and an explanation of what each manoeuvre and exercise would require and the debrief at the end of the lesson allowed me to think about my mistakes and where I could improve for next time.
My experience with John Kerr and Drive and Pass: I've had a countless number of instructors in my time learning to drive, none have ever come close to the professionalism and expert level of knowledge held by John Kerr. Unlike a lot of instructors, John prides himself in making you the best driver you can be. You're not just trained to be at pass standard, instead, you are trained to tackle any situation the roads have for you. At the end of each lesson, there would be an in-depth debrief to discuss how you thought the lesson went and where you could improve. John consistently made sure that every minute of the lesson was used to effectively to most improve your driving and often went overtime to make sure you would leave the lesson feeling great. As well as taking it very seriously, John was a very friendly instructor and his humor made the lessons that much more enjoyable. I would like to thank John for going that extra mile for me (excuse the pun!). Cheers again, Haidar
John'a highly detailed and logistical thinking is exactly what i needed in order to pass my test. After I failed my first test and my old tutor had to stop teaching because of an operation I was suggested John. He has a keen eye for what people do wrong and helped me gain confidence behind the wheel. If i feel like i ever lose confidence while driving, it's highly likely i will return to John for more tutoring

John was an absolutely amazing instructor. He was always calm, determined and passionate for helping me in every circumstance. I would highly recommend him if you really want to pass the driving test. Thank you
Really good, gave great corrections and was really encouraging.
John was a superb driving instructor. He was gentle, patient and calm. He was a clear instructor and helped us to pass in 4 months.
I admire John’s professionalism and his passion for driving, which he uses to teach his pupils. He has been a brilliant instructor and has been pointing out every single detail of my drive correcting my errors to make me a perfect driver. His method of communication is calm and his explanations are very easy to understand and remember. I have had a wonderful experience learning from John and would definitely recommend him to anyone interested.
John was a really great instructor. He was always calm and explained everything clearly. I have a specific learning difficulty (dyspraxia/dyslexia) that made learning to drive a bit harder than usual, but John was very patient and kind with teaching. His mock tests were also very helpful and fully prepared me for test day. I would genuinely recommend learning with John, if you want to be a confident driver once you’ve passed your test (as I am now)!
John is a great driving instructor. Previously failing my test in London , John was able to guide and fix all my mistakes and bad habits that were developed from my previous driving. He was patient, motivating and flexible with lesson timing according to my requirements. He greatly improved my driving and allowed me be to more confident on the road. I would strongly recommend John for new driving learners.

John was a very good driving instructor who guided me to a pass with 3 minors. I had previously failed my test and John helped me have a smoother and calmer driving style. He helped ensure I had no bad habits and raised the standard of my driving significantly I would highly recommend John for anyone looking for driving lessons

Usually I don't write reviews, but I really wanted to write a review about John and his driving lessons. I am 43 years old and I am a fully qualified driver, but I don’t have much driving experience in the UK and especially in busy towns/cities. My work office moved, and I needed to start driving to get to the office. So, I found John’s details on the internet and messaged him. I explained the situation that I need quite urgently driving lessons. So, he got back to me straight away, and I got even two lessons on next week. I was quite nervous at the first few lessons, and I did have quite a few bad habits which John pointed out straight away and we started working on them: harsh breaking or I tend to use breaks often when I don’t need, instead of using a clutch. We worked on clearance and meeting a lot because I didn’t have much experience in this area. I’ve had 6 lessons so far and I can feel that John managed to bring my confidence back and I already managed to go to the office on my own. I decided to carry on with his lessons, because I can see that I am still learning many vital skills from John which can be very helpful in the future. Without any doubt I would highly recommend John for anyone who is looking for driving lessons as a beginner or who needs to build their confidence back in driving. John has an excellent teaching approach. He is amazingly calm, patient, very polite, and professional. Even I already have my driving license, but he never commented that I should know this or that if I am qualified. He understood my situation and was very supportive. Thank you very much, John!
I passed my test first time with Richard after 6 months of lessons. The lessons were very thorough and by the time I took my test I was confident that I would do well. In the 6 months I can't remember Richard ever cancelling or being late to a time that we had arranged for a lesson. Overall I was very happy with choosing Richard as my instructor.
It was brilliant Richard was amazing he was teaching me my lesson after i had other Driving instructions were just messing me about but Richard was amazing and I would recommend him to others
Richard was great! Clear explanations and very patient.
Richard was very calm and patient throughout my learning to drive. He was happy to give me a balance of intensive lessons and refreshers as a result of COVID. He is very knowledgeable and explains things clearly to make driving an enjoyable learning experience. Highly recommend.
Passed first time after only 12 lessons with Javed, would recommend him to anyone
He is a fantastic driving instructor! Tim was very patient and calm throughout the lessons, as well as fully preparing me, not only for the driving test, but also for driving after passing my test. For these reasons, I always recommend Tim to friends and family.
I do not hesitate to recommend Tim as a driving instructor. He is patient and supportive and draws on his extensive knowledge of driving and teaching. I felt completely supported in every lesson, and Tim knew when to push me to succeed. His flexible approach to teaching meant that we focused on my (many!) weaknesses during the lessons. I passed first time with only a few minor faults, mainly as a result of Tims careful and thorough guidance. More importantly, I am a more confident and safe driver. Thank you, Tim.
Tim has been a good and understanding instructor. I would recommend him to anyone.
Brilliant lesson as always, Duane is thoughtful and constructive in his instruction as well as being thoroughly likable. highly recommended!
Really enjoyed my first lesson with Duane. Found Duane to be really at ease and down to earth which made the whole expensive much more enjoyable. Looking forward to my next lesson and to master the super sensitive brake pedal!
Polite courteous took time to explain everything. Very helpful.
Amazing instructor! Made driving really enjoyable as well as helping me progress quickly despite lockdown. He also introduced me to websites and insurance policies which have become really helpful in making sure you are a confident driver- couldn't recommend him enough!
Highly recommend Alby! He is motivating, punctual, gives you confidence and makes learning to drive a positive and pleasant experience. Can’t thank Alby enough for all his help! His first time pass rate speaks for its self.
Alby is such an amazing driving instructor! Through the hard times during Covid and lockdown he has been a constant support in helping me learn to drive! His positive attitude goes a long way in driving lessons and gives you the confidence you need to become a good driver! Highly recommend!
Positive: Quality Alby is a wonderful driving instructor, he is so patient and kind. If you struggle he supports you and fully explains each driving manoeuvre/ technique. Thank you to Alby for helping me to pass first time !
3 months ago Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality Brilliant instructor, really helped me prepare for my test and helped me achieve my goal to pass before my 18th! Really recommend :)
a day agoNEW Positive: Professionalism, Quality Where do I start? First of all, cracking bloke, he is so calm and patient with you but also can have a good laugh while driving. He will make sure you are 100% ready for your test before he sends you off- no hit or miss! Prepares you not only for what’s going to be on your test but what you will face in your real life! Would absolutely recommend if you want to not only pass your test, but actually learn how to drive properly.
Thank you very much Drive with George Driving School for all your hard work, you are a quality instructor, and I felt really easy and comfortable working with you, I would definitely recommend to anyone who are looking for a good instructor .
Great driver instructor and most importantly very patient. He helped me out even through hard times!
excellent driving instructor I've had lessons with another firm before and really struggled with them went with George and he made things so much easier for me I would recommend him to anyone thanks for everything George respect and god bless
Teaching driving is an art and George is a great artist at it, he strikes a rare balance between explaining and letting you learn by practice, he doesn't waste your time and focuses on the salient and relevant points. I passed on the first attempt in a short period and to be honest I'll miss our lessons, it never felt heavy. Highly recommend it to my friends and everyone.
He is the one you should contact! He took the time to explain each sessions and the ones to come, before and after the lesson. He is experienced and organised. Very friendly, patient. He believed in me even when I didn’t.
George was fantastic and understanding with the questions, he is very patient he that made me pass first time :)
George is an excellent driving instructor who is clearly very experienced. He is very professional, a great teacher, very patient and very skilled at identifying areas that need to be worked on. He is very flexible and really tailored the lessons to my hectic work schedule which was the main problem I was having with all other instructors. I had started and stopped lessons many times before due to my hectic schedule and lack of flexibility. He really went above and beyond to ensure that I have the best chance to succeed. I will definitely recommend him to everyone. Thank you George for all your help.
Amazing instructor. Keeps calm and cool, but makes sure you're picking up the correct habits to be a safe and confident driver for long after you've passed.
Amazing instructor keeps calm and makes me feel very relaxed and confident.
Solid, reliable and very patient!
I highly recommend Waseem, he's a great instructor. I didn't drive for well over 10 years, never liked it. Waseem is the 3rd instructor I've had over the years and by far the best. He was very calm and very patient. He always explained everything to me in the way I could really understand it, he talked me through the mistakes I've done without making me feel bad. He scheduled our lessons in perfect order to teach me step by step everything I needed, gradually adding to the difficulty and repeating until I got it, always making sure I would pick up correct habits. He gave me confidence to drive. Thank you very much.
You waz are in different league when it comes to number of passes
Excellent instructor! I was lucky that I choose Waseem on Go Roadie web site, when I was looking for an instructor.I haven't been driving for over 10 years.I was scared after I had an accident on bike with car. With Waseem I find a confidence in driving again. He is great in explaining and very patient , and helpful too. He put me at ease. I can recommend Waseem.
I passed my test first time with the help of Waseem. He is extremely patient and good at teaching. His explanation has always been very clear. Highly recommended.
I wouldn't recommend this instructor at all making money even if your ready for driving test he would say I'm still not ready to make more money.
very good instructor
Driving with Waseem was great and he was very patient and understanding. He helped me pass my test first time with only 2 minors. Would recommend to anyone.
A great instructor, helped me get back to test level after not driving for over a year. He really helped build my confidence on the road. Passed first time with only a couple of minors!
Passed first time with 3 minors! Great process in general and a lot of patience!
Waseem was such a helpful and patient instructor. He gives firm, honest feedback but also knows how to laugh/joke with you which is super helpful when you're nervous or stressed. You can tell that Wass is preparing you not just for a test but for real life driving and has given me plenty of advice for after I have passed. Id definitely recommend him to someone, like myself, who had had a few instructors and was struggling to find someone with a good balance of feedback and good humour.
Wass is an excellent instructor and consistently helped me learn to drive, even though we had to stop lessons for long periods of time throughout various lockdowns. Despite all of this however, he was extremely patient and forgiving and I would definitely recommend Wass to anybody looking for a driving instructor.
On time, strict in the right way, teaches situation based, I would highly recommend.
Mizan was very patient and strict when necessary, he gave me the confidence over time to handle my nerves and pass first time, thanks again!
Absolutely brilliant instructor ,he's got me passed first time along with my partner to Would highly recommend. Thankyou Mizan.
I recommend Mizan because my driving improved a lot. He was patient but also very strict when I had any mistakes. I learnt a lot and passed my test today!!!
Mizan is a great instructor. I had booked 3 lessons with him. And it was so useful that I cleared my test in first attempt. In a very short time period he explained all the basics which were necessary to clear the test. Highly recommended 👍. Once again Mizan thank you very much for all your efforts.
A great instructor who explains concepts well in a manner that is easy to understand and commit to memory. He is also very patient and helpful and makes learning to drive an enjoyable experience.
Mizan is such a great instructor. I passed my test first time with him. Highly recommended
What a great bloke, laid back, funny and a good teacher, highly recommended. Also loves chocolate lol
AMAZING...never gave up on me and encouraged me all the way, thank you so much highly recommended xxxx
Had my first lesson, really enjoyed it thank you.
I took a number of lessons with my previous instructor and made no progress. I am extremely happy to have found Mike who is an amazing instructor. Mike is very patient and has great teaching skills. I would highly recommend Mike to all! Thank you Mike!
If there is a word better than awesome I would be appropriate to describe the effort , tips and instructions Mike give to the candidate. I have passed from the first go with him, he has loads of experience that grantees you a pass as easy as was mine. If you want unforgettable experience and an excellent guide to get your driving license made easy he is the one for sure Mona
After many years dealing with chronic anxiety due to driving and trying to pass with many different instructors I finally found someone who understood my issues. In a short amount of time Mike gave me the coinfidence to pass first time. I couldn't recommend Mike enough. Thanks for all you have done.
I had 4 instructors and hated driving. I wasn’t confident and really really nervous. I put my test off 6 times. Then I met Mike. My whole driving changed. Nerves became excitement and my confidence went from 0-100 after a few lessons. I passed first time. 2 driving faults. Hes calm, hes very very good at what he does and i’m just glad I found him. I don’t know how he does it but hes dam good instructor. Thank you for getting me where I am and changing my life.
Mike is super professional and effective trainer. Thanks for your patience!
Mike is an absolute fantastic driving instructor very patient brilliant to work with if you are a nervous driver made me feel comfortable pass with mike first time thanks a lot for that I’m buzzing
I found Mike after bad experience with a previous instructor. When I first started, I was not at all a confident driver and was unable to perform even some basic manoeuvres but within a few months, Mike was able to completely turn things around. He was very patient, calm and understanding throughout the process and provided expert Knowledge on driving, which helped me gain confidence and I passed my practical driving test on first attempt. I would highly recommend him to anyone and would give him 10 stars if it’s possible. Thanks so much Mike!
Great instructor! Passed first time with Mike. Easy to get on with and a great teacher!
If you’re looking for a highly experienced automatic driving instructor then look no further. Mike is brilliant. He is my 3rd (and final) instructor and is the best out of the lot by far! I had never enjoyed lessons before Mike. I consistently felt anxious and dreaded driving every week. However, Mike was able to completely alter my learning experience. Despite having over 40 lessons with other instructors, Mike was able to make me feel safe, comfortable and confident behind the wheel for the first time EVER! As a trainee teacher myself, I can confidently say that Mike is an amazing teacher who is committed to his students and after only 12 hours with Mike, I was test ready and passed with only 4 minors. At first, I was sceptical about switching from manual to automatic but once I had done it I realised it was most definitely the best decision I had ever made. The only regret I have is not finding Mike 3 years ago when I first began lessons and passing a lot sooner!
Outstanding service from start to finish, got me test ready much faster and comfortably than I expected, especially given how much I had hated manual lessons I had tried last year. Thanks Mike!!!
Learning to drive with Mike has been brilliant! After having a few instructors before, I felt comfortable with Mike and passed first time doing the 5 day intensive course! He is patient and takes the time to help you really learn! Thank you Mike!
LOOK NO FURTHER If you are looking on here trying to decide which driving school to go with, then I recommend for you to look no further, as you have found the best instructor in Mike Jobling. Mike will develop you into an all round driver, whether you are complete novice starting out as I was, or someone who is going nowhere fast under their current instructor and need to change. I can't recommend Mike highly enough, his attention to detail on every lesson shows how much he is focused on you as his student. Thanks Mike for taking me on with absolutely no experience behind the wheel, and getting me my license.
BEST DRIVING SCHOOL AROUND! These guys are absolutely spot on. Got me through my test In no time at all, they don't teach you to pass your test, they teach you to drive!
EXCELLENT DRIVING INSTRUCTOR Mike is brilliant.I was low in confidence at 49yros having not driven & after some sessions with Mike, I am now driving.I can't rate him highly enough, he is a great teacher, very personable& reassuring.I highly recommend Mike
SIMPLY THE BEST! Simply the best driving school in Nottingham.. I first started with Mike whos teaching technique is very clear, concise, and easy to understand. He is very easy going and makes you feel relaxed and confident but also makes you stick to the task. I then had the pleasure of driving with Michael, who has a vast welath of knowledge when it comes to "real world driving" and like Mike his teaching is impeccable.. between the 2 of them I managed to pass 1st time. I would highly recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thanks Mike and Michael
FIRST TIME PASS For an extremely nervous beginner learner, Mike helped me pass 1st time. The teaching style is brilliant as well as tailored at developing you into an advanced and confident driver. Not onlyfor test standards but complex real life situation. If you’re looking for an automatic instructor in Nottingham then Mike@LessGears is top notch. I must say I have had a wonderful experience. Thank you so much Mike@LessGears!!
1ST CLASS INSTRUCTORS. GREAT GUYS. Went with LessGears because I wanted to pass 1st time. Got everything I could have asked for and some! Both Mikes are fantastic instructors, and great people. If you want to be fullyready and prepared to pass your test, choose LessGears!
Used Phil to pass my test first time!! Phil is an awesome instructor who's always up for a laugh whilst giving you the best driving experience possible at the same time. He always asks you what YOU would like to do, to try and help you strengthen any weak points you may have, to make you the best driver as quickly as possible. No messing about, an awesome learners car and a great laugh at the same time; can ask for no more of an instructor. 5 stars from me, would recommend him to anybody without a doubt. If you want to pass, go to Phil!!! Thank you :)
I passed my test with Phil as well an extra motorway lesson. He was always very supportive, makes you feel at ease behind the wheel & instills confidence. Combines a relaxed environment with efficiently learning what you need to. Brilliant instructor, would highly recommend!
I felt like I have taken right decision by choosing Phil as my driving instructor, he is so patient in explaining, gives you good valuable suggestions to improve the driving, he always gives you examples when practicing the driving, which will help to improve your driving skills, within no time I passed the practical driving test with the help of Phil. finally I would say, Phil is an excellent driving instructor.
With my First instructor I kept constantly driving around and doing no maneuvers I didn’t even go on a around-about and I must say that I had at least 12-15 hours of just doing the same thing every lesson and this was making me think that its gunnna take agers to past going at this rate!! So I decided to give AA a call and got put with this fantastic driving instructor!! On my first lesson I went on all the round-abouts in Worksop and just didn’t expect that at all. He supports and encourages you all the way! He says it how it is! Most of all he gives you confidence in your driving and just overall makes you feel safe! Through out each lesson he gives you straight trufull feedback and works on your week points. This more than what you need for a Driving Instructor, he provides the best service and the best experience. If you want to learn quick, and get the most out of each lesson then I would highly recommend Phill! DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!! Give Phil Long-melton a call!! :) :-)
David is a great driving instructor and is very patient and allways friendly. David is always reliable and I never once felt like I had a bad driving lesson. I would recommend David to anyone wanting to learn to drive. I would also recommend David if you are very nervous or anxious about learning to drive because he will always work at your speed.
My experience with David accords with the other positive reviews he has been given. The quality of tuition he provided was excellent throughout. I especially appreciated his ability to give feedback at appropriate times, rather than when it potentially lower my confidence. He ensured it was positive and useful to my development as a driver. It also goes without saying he is a lovely man, who is personable and patient, and is genuinely interested in helping you progress. He was flexible in arranging lessons and would take time to answer my questions and would focus on the areas I wanted to. Overall, having had several instructors I can confidently say he was the best and I would highly recommend him!
Amazing driving instructor wouldn't have passed first time if it wasn't for David, would definitly recommend him. He never put any pressure on and allowed me to learn at my own pace. He's great instructor and bloke to talk to Thank you David :D
What a great instructor! Always positive and patient. Had a good chuckle each lesson and was happy to go with my 'scientific' approach to driving. I couldn't have passed first time if he hadn't. Thank you!!
Paul is a fantastic instructor with a calm and friendly manner and was great with dealing with nerves and confidence issues. He is reliable, flexible and has an excellent eye for personalising his teaching to suit different learners. With his advice I passed everything first time. Highly recommended if you want a quality experience tailored to meet your needs
I can't thank Paul enough for helping me to pass my driving test! I had a bad experience with a past instructor and he restored my confidence in the first lesson I had with him! He is a very calm and patient instructor, & I would highly recommend!!! Thank you again
A lot of at patience for his learners, especially someone like me
honesty can't thank Paul enough! Such a kind,patient instructor who made me feel very comfortable and always believed in my ability to pass my test. I would strongly recommend Paul to anyone who is interested in learning how to drive.
A great instructor and would fully reccome do helped with both theory and practical and is now teaching my gf! Thanks Paul!
Cool friendly teacher, would recommend to anyone
Awful instructor very rude and not pleasant at all and expensive!!! Not recommending at all cost or desperation
Steve has got so much patience. I drove an automatic car for a few years as I never believed I could do manual, but having a career change that required a manual licence I didn't have much time to learn. I had just under 2 months worth of lessons with Steve and managed to pass on my first test. A big thank you to Steve for everything, would really recommend.
Steve is the 3rd instructor I've had and by far the best. He has a calm manner, won't be alarmed by any mistakes pupils might make, making you as a student feel at ease which is important to those that get nervous while driving, myself included. I found that Steve's approach to lessons can only leave you prepared or over-prepared for the test, challenging students on every lesson to a degree more demanding than I found the test to be. This was in stark contrast to my first test where I was underprepared and my weaknesses hadn't be ironed out, something Steve makes a point of doing. He is very generous with his time, allowing lessons to go on for as much as 30 mins longer than you've paid for if he has the time give. Finally, Steve was recommended to me by a number of good friends and they were all right. He is a fantastic choice of driving instructor in the Nottingham area and for anyone that wants to learn, they'd be fools not to try Steve out. Thanks for the chats, laughs and license Steve! Best of luck in your future endeavours.
Steve is an great driving instructor he is calm and very patient.he puts alot of time and effort into everything he does can be very funny but will also put you in your place when needed . he put up with alot from me and helped with my nerves (the best he could) and made me feel comfortable. i highly recommend him i would not have chosen any other instructor.
After putting off driving for a number number of years, never liking the thought of driving or ever thinking I would be able to....I have just passed my test and its all thanks to Steve. He was brilliant. He made me feel at ease straight away and always asked what I wanted to to, never forcing me to do anything I wasnt confortable or capable of doing. Steve was always calm and took time to talk through any mistakes that were made with out making me feel like a failure and gave me confidence to keep trying. All in all a super driving instructor. Thank you.
Steve was a great driving instructor, calm and organised and made a point of spending extra time making sure I got the most out of every lesson. Friendly and thorough, Steve made sure I was at a level not just so I could pass my test, but that I could drive with confidence afterwards. Thanks for the laughs and banter as we drove around. I would definitely recommend.
I cannot recommend highly enough the work of Steve at Red Amber Go. In fact, I already have recommended him to several friends, two of whom are now learning with him and are very happy with his teaching. One thing I've learnt during almost five years at medical school is that being able to teach well is a particular skill quite apart from how intelligent, skillful or experienced the teacher is. Thankfully Steve has all of these qualities. From the outset he encouraged my growing confidence and guided me through analysing my own driving to work out where I needed more practice. We always had one eye on passing the test and the other on real-world driving once I passed - examiners can tell the difference and so will you.
Couldn't have asked for a better instructor, Jamie made me feel relaxed at all times. Never shy of complimenting you when you do something good and doesn't make you feel like an idiot when you do something wrong, I've had other instructors that do. All round amazing.
Jamie was a really really good instructor for me, I passed with as little as 12 hours! He teaches very well and has a good sense of humour which made the lessons very enjoyable whilst learning at the same time. Would 10/10 recommend Jamie to anyone wanting to learn to drive! Top man.
I started driving in September and passed first time in January (first available test date). Jamie is an excellent instructor, he uses his experience of driving and knowledge of instructing to tailor to your learning needs. He identifed where I was struggling and focused on teaching me the skills I needed to improve. I found Jamie to be very lively and friendly but also incredibly competent. Cheers mate :)
I have been taking driving lessons with Jamie for a few months now and he is amazing! I was extremely nervous at first but he did everything to talk me through it and calm my nerves, now i'm looking to take my theory test ready for my practical. Thanks Jamie!
As a Type 1 Diabetic, Ben was always aware of my disability and accommodated my need to bring along some medication and equipment during lessons. He even delivered it back to me, for free, once I had forgotten some of it in his car. While learning to drive the experience was never scary, I felt comfortable throughout, even when first starting on roundabouts, motorways, etc.which you'd assume to be most daunting. I learned quickly due to Ben never being overbearing, distract… See more
Can’t thank Ben enough! Learnt to drive with Ben after a bad experience with another instructor from another company. Ben was amazing and taught me all of the things which my previous instructor failed to do. Had a great experience with Able 2 Drive and passed first time. Would definitely recommend them!
Very Friendly instructor who knows what he is doing... Taught me my Pass Plus and got my brother through his test... Highly recomended 🙂
Jon is excellent, very patient, friendly, reliable & honest. would definitely recommend . x
I had my lessons with Jon, he's a really good teacher who can adapt to how you like to learn pretty quickly. He's very calm, friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. I was able drive home on the first lesson and improved with every lesson taken. Highly recommended!
Had a great experience of learning to drive with you. Ben is a great instructor, patient and talkative and makes the lessons enjoyable. Got me through my test in not many lessons I highly recommend to anyone learning to drive in the area. Thank you!
Peter was very professional . He explained everything. He knows answers on every my question. He gave me few good tips as well.I was very happy with him. I can only recommend Peter. He is excellent teacher.
Very impatient and abrupt instructor, very pushy to give more lessons even when felt confident. Money grabber
Scott was a great driving instructor, really lovely and friendly, got me through all my super random driving quirks! would deffo recommend.
Couldn't recommend Checkmate Driver Training enough! I tried to learn when I was 17 and hated driving, but 12 years later after learning with Scott I passed first time! Would recommend to anyone, but especially if like me you're a bit older and/or nervous about learning. Thanks for everything!
Scott was my driving instructor who I was introduced by his partner mother whom I work with and what can I say I couldn’t of picked a better person or shall I say now new friend to teach me the ropes of driving. I have had many driving lessons in the past but never followed through with it as I was always struggling to get through the theory part of the test. I passed my theory at the end of December 2017 and started straight away in January. Scott put me at ease straight away he saw what I knew back then and showed me new techniques how I can improve and I finally past my test last week after my 3rd attempt. I highly recommend Scott and his driving school he got me passed within 7 months and has now changed my life forever for the better Thank you Scott!!!!
Scott was my driving instructor and I couldnt of picked a better person to teach me to drive I had never stepped foot behind the wheel of a car so I was nervous but Scott put me at ease straight away he was very kind and understanding and I had started to look forward to my lessons as I felt like I had gained a friend I highly recommend Scott and his driving school he got me passed within 6 months and has changed my life forever thankyou Scott xxx
100% 5*! My instructor Scott is extremely friendly and lovely. He is patient and keeps you calm and relaxed. I couldn’t recommend enough, passed my test first time down to Scott’s skilled teaching techniques. Amazing, thank you!! :)
Scott has been a absolute legend with me, I suffer from anxiety and I cant stress how patience this guy has been with me, I couldn't have wished for a better instructor to get me through this challenge.
Rob is an extremely personable, understanding and patient instructor. His calm demeanour helped me to relax, feel confident and overcome my nerves and fears. Learning in this environment allowed me to progress from strength to strength very quickly, leading through to me passing my driving test on my first attempt. Rob is also very thorough and intuitive in his teaching, tailoring every lesson around my specific needs and worries. If there was something I was unsure about he was always reasurring, providing helpful points of improvement, encouragement and letting me repeat any exercise till I felt comfortable. Overall it has been a privilege to learn with Rob and I would highly recommend him as an instructor.
Rob is an exceptional driving instructor. I was really nervous about learning to drive because I struggle with anxiety and focus problems, but Rob could not have been better equipped to teach me. His extensive experience dealing with all kinds of different people, which he backs up with constant self-education on the many conditions affecting his pupils, means he was able to provide all the support I needed and some. He always checked to make sure the course was moving at a pace I was comfortable with, and created an environment where I never felt embarrassed about the difficulties my anxiety caused during lessons. I felt I could tell him exactly how I was feeling at all times knowing that he would respond calmly and kindly. I could not recommend Rob more highly.
I have been learning to drive on and off for 20 years. I have experienced good and bad driving instructors. When I met Rob for the first time I knew he was different in his teaching methods and his relaxed demeanour and friendly nature. He his a brilliant instructor and I don't think I could have done this without him. Learning to drive and passing my test will open up so much for me and my young family. Thanks again Rob :) I will recommend you for years to come :) :) :)
Rob is a great driving instructor. He is really patient, knowledgeable and understanding of the different needs of each student. He teaches a syllabus which is very focused and thorough. I was a nervous student who had been learning to drive for a long time but had always given up. I genuinely felt like I was never going to drive or feel confident but Rob showed me I was a good driver and that I would pass...and I did! Thanks Rob!
Well what can I say about the Fabulous Tony. He is by far the most patient person I know and believe me I can test the patience of a saint. He is funny, intelligent and there is not a single thing about driving that man doesn't know. I would recommend Tony to everyone as he is an amazing driving instructor. I can't thank him enough from the bottom of my heart for helping me over my anxiety to drive and perseverance with me when it has been tough. Thank you millions Tony you are the best xxxxx
Tony is an excellent and highly knowledgeable driving instructor, he literally knows the Highway Code like the back of his hand. He's very flexible with lesson times and pick ups, which was especially helpful for me as I was learning to drive whilst working 3 jobs. I chose to do the drive til you pass course and passed first time with 0 faults. Tony not only gets you ready to pass your test, but to drive on your own with confidence.
Passed my test first time today with Tony, despite being a nervous wreck! Tony is honestly the best instructor you could wish to have. I had a bad experience from a previous driving school when I started out, so was worrying about finding the right person second time around, and Tony was recommended to me by another instructor. I am so glad I chose to go with AJK. He is patient, friendly and an excellent instructor, never making you feel uncomfortable and always giving advice. He is always happy to answer your questions (even sometimes daft ones in my case!) and has a great sense of humour which makes you feel at ease. I did the 'train until you pass' which I would also recommend to anyone as I was having 3 lessons a week and didn't have to worry about paying for more as all of my lessons were paid for, as were my theory and practical test. It is well worth the money as you're getting what you pay for and more! If you're not sure who to learn to drive with, pick Tony and you won't be disappointed. Thanks Tony for everything, I really appreciate it. Will miss my lessons with you (and your jokes!)
Couldn't of asked for a better introduction to driving! Tony made every lesson enjoyable, and his patience and knowledge really helped me feel confident and at ease when driving. Great advice was always given, I would recommended to anyone! Thank you Tony, for all the help and advice you have given me, I really appreciate it.
Really recommend ajk for lessons and Tony is a really good person to learn with, makes you feel comfortable when driving and always showing you the best way and makes sure you understand what’s what I’m the road would send everyone I no to him as he’s a 5
Honestly if it wasnt for mike i dont think id ever have passed! Hes the kindest and motivated person ive ever met. I cant thank him enough for getting me to pass! 100% the best!
Amazing instructor, very professional but also likes to have a chat and joke which makes you feel at ease and comfortable whilst behind the wheel. Very helpful and Easy to understand, also adapts to your driving skills.
Fantastic instructor! So patient and mike makes you feel extremely comfortable l. Would recommend highly.
Omg the best instructor ever. Started my lessons in April and I have just passed my test. Mike is so patient and explains things in a way that you can understand. Felt like I got better and better with every lesson. He makes you feel so comfortable with your driving it’s like driving with your best mate. THANK YOU MIKE
I would recommend these to just about anyone Mike is a really great instructor he involved what's going off in my life like studying at uni for games technology and he added that in to my lesson nice as nice all around great to talk to and get along with and he will push and push to get what you need done to pass your test.
After having my first driving lesson with mike last week, I would highly recommend him, I have had previous instructors before and my nerves have got the better of me, but after driving a little and talking with mike he reassured me and brought my confidence back! I look forward to carrying on my lessons with Mike!👍🏻
Mike is absolutely brilliant, So patient, caters to your learning style, goes above and beyond for you and is a great laugh! Very passionate about what he does and getting the best result for you. Made me feel at ease, believe in myself and helped me beat my driving nerves! I 100% recommend.
it was a great first lesson I would definitely recommend adl network to help you learn how to drive thay give you so much help and advice I will definitely be doing more lessons with them 💯
abusive, short tempered and stunk of coffee and sweat said i wasn't safe for the road yet an instructor got me passed in less than 10 lessons. i think this pathetic excuse of an instructor has lied about many things, payed reviews being one of them
Ian is very easy going, honest and helpful. I quickly felt comfortable with him. His automatic car is very easy to drive. No gear change and clutch to worry about. I progressed very quickly with him and was lucky and passed on my first attempt
Joslyn was fun and encouraging throughout the whole experience. He made sure we completed all the manoeuvres and required skills to learn to drive in the time i had aimed for. I passed first time with him in manual. Thankyou Josyln
Awful instructor. Would not recommend.
The instructor was absolutely evil! So evil to a point where I’m traumatised and I’m having nightmares about him. He was completely rude in even lesson and would swear in his non understanding Jamaican language. He would shout at me making me uncomfortable which would then lead me to make more faults in the driving lesson. If I had the option to give him 0 stars I would most definitely do with no hesitation!!
I felt extremely uncomfortable in every lesson and was making faults mainly because of his negative energy and he always swears in his non understandable Jamaican language. It got to a point where I was having ptsd and nightmares of him eating the learner car during a lesson!!
Paul's been the best since I started learning with him. Never been let down by the man, easy to get on with, and has a vast knowledge! I'd like to give more than 5*, but it won't let me!
If you're looking for a fantastic instructor, Paul’s the man. If you're a nervous learner, Paul is an exceptional, very patient and calming influence. I really can’t recommend him highly enough. I passed with Paul today.
If you want the best instructor in Nottingham then Paul’s the man! He’s patient; thorough and dedicated! With all the one liners to help you remember everything from ‘the plonker mirror’ to ‘is the car talking to you’ I would have never passed without the support of Paul! Thank you!!!
Paul is a fantastic driving instructor. He has a really positive and patient approach to lessons. As a nervous (and slightly older) learner he totally put me at ease. He also went above and beyond to research the routes and test centre, and to make sure I was fully prepared for my test.
Had a booster lesson with Paul to get me more confident with my manoeuvres for my test next week and he's great! I felt confident with him, he's a nice guy and friendly... and he likes cats! Highly recommend him for your driving lessons! Thanks 🙂
Paul is an amazing driving instructor, he's a really friendly person and he's so easy to get along with. Paul is always on time, and the lessons are really enjoyable. Whenever I have a lesson with Paul I always feel relaxed in the car, there's always a great atmosphere and there's never a dull moment, it's always fun. So if you're looking for a driving instructor I couldn't recommend Paul enough - he is just brilliant !!!
If you're reading this and unsure which instructor to choose, Paul is the man! Been with Paul since my first lesson to the day I passed, and he's been fantastic. Felt relaxed from start to finish and I felt my confidence and ability grow with him. Top instructor and cannot recommend enough.
Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Paul is an amazing driving instructor. I've learned so much since I started my course with him and will continue to recommend him to everyone I know. Massive thanks and look forward to continuing my journey with you.
Martin is an excellent driving instructor. He has always approached driving lessons in a calm and supportive manner. He has taught me to drive using methods and techniques that are memorable and useful and have made me a better driver. Martin has helped develop my skills as a safe driver so that I could pass my driving test today on my first attempt and, more importantly, become an independent and confident driver for when I begin to finally drive on my own. I had taken lessons over a long period of time due to the interruption of A Level examinations and stresses of live. Regardless, Martin was patient and always provided a relaxing learning environment during all of my lessons. I am very grateful and feel confident to begin driving on my own. Thank you Martin.
I passed my driving test first time today with 0 faults, and have to thank Martin very much for his excellent instruction and guidance. Throughout the whole process he has been very calm, understanding and thorough, despite my nerves getting the better of me from time to time. His logical, personalised approach to my issues and doubts is especially notable and he was fantastic in considering my driving as a skill in progress in line with my other activities/holidays/commitments. His support, super organisation and communication has also been very consistent and useful. I would recommend Martin's driving lessons with no hesitation whatsoever!
After having a bad experience with three different driving schools, I got really frustrated. No-one tried to prepare me for the test. Having watched different driving clips on Martin's website, I contacted Martin who proved a fantastic instructor for me. He is so organised, very dedicated and works hard according to your needs. He is the best instructor I could've had and the best interaction I have had with him. Fantastic instructor who gave me confidence. His website is also helpful. I also passed first time with five minors which speaks for itself that he is fantastic. Thank you Martin for giving me a good experience though I cannot be thankful enough to you. All the instructors are not the same so I would highly recommend Martin.
Passed my test today after taking lessons with Martin and I'm so grateful! From day one, he's treated me like an individual, genuinely concerned with my progress in the car as well as a person. He gave me thorough preparation and constructive feedback in each lesson. The flexibility of the lessons were amazing, catering towards my university timetable. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor, who was so supportive in my driving experience. 100000% recommend!
Martin has been a fantastic driving instructor! His lessons were always well prepared and individually tailored to develop the skills that I needed to practise. His calm and patient manner always put me at ease and enabled me to pass first time!
I would highly recommend Martin, a great instructor. Extremely supportive and helped me become a confident driver who passed my test first time!
Have had many lessons with Ajith, each one learning something new nand ultimately passed my test with ease. Even when I make mistakes it’s constructive criticism all the way. Huge thanks and highly recommend this driving instructor.
I had a great learning experience with Ajith.He refined my driving and gave me more confidence.The instructions ajith gave me were more clear and I actually enjoyed driving.A fantastic instructor who teaches you not only to pass the test but also teaches to drive safely always.I passed my test first time with only 3 minors.I would 100% recommend him to all who want to pass their test in first attempt.Thanking him for my success.
Considering my level of mess during my lessons, I see Ajith as a very tolerant and considerate Instructor who would tell me that every person is bound to make mistakes, especially a learner. He will ask you to learning from your mistakes and put words of encouragement in you, thus boosting your level of confidence. Ajith teaches and disciplines you on how to become a safe and tolerant driver on the road and not just for the sake of passing your test. My first "time pass attempt" was not a surprise for the fact that he prepared me for that and even a few minutes before the test, he said to me: "Mustapha, I know you can make it on this attempt and you will make it, so do it, do it , do it". This statement of encouragement was in my mind throughout the test, pushing me to achieve a first time pass attempt. I would therefore not be hesitant to recommend Ajith to any learner wanting to pass on first attempt. Ajith, thank you very much and keep up the good work. Good luck in your job.
Very prompt. Had an instructor and set up my first lesson within 2 hrs of signing up. My instructor was knowledgeable, attentive and practised with me my weaker points specifically, I always felt like the lessons were tailor made. I passed my test on the first go.
Very good instructor, I passed first time and enjoyed lessons. Ajith is very open to suggestions for the lesson and what YOU feel you need to work on. Would recommend to everyone who wants to pass fast and for a good price.
Excellent driving school my daughter, son in law and nephew passed there’s with Darren, myself and niece passed with Chris would highly recommend.
Best driving instructor round nottingham hands down
Tue driving lessons themselves were really good he was very patient. However we started learning as the pandemic hit and I paid all my fees up front but when I tried to get in contact with him as we couldn't finished all our lessons together gue to covid he didnt respond and I was unable to get the rest of the money back I had paid up front
Great!
Great instructor. 5/5. Recommend!!
Thanks to Barry for the time he spent helping me to pass my driving test. Very patient and always helpful with fitting in the times of my driving lessons and test. Barry made the change from driving a automatic to manual car easy. I now see why my husband had his motorbike lesson with Barry and I would recommend his driving school to anyone wanting driving lessons in a relaxed atmosphere.
Excellent service by a competent instructor.
STAY AWAY!!! Faisal was a rip off and inexperienced. He spends more time sitting in the car with u rather than actually driving. He’s another one of them instructors to extend the lessons out so u pay him more money. Would not recommend at all...
I recently passed my practical driving test with Javid as my instructor. He was super helpful and encouraging from the start, and he explained everything to me in such a calm and easy way. He was always very patient, and really friendly too. This made the test far less stressful! I would highly recommend to anyone looking to learn how to drive! 10/10. Always thoroughly enjoyed my lessons and will definitely be recommending to friends.
I passed on Wednesday with Jav, he’s a fantastic instructor, super friendly and super patient. He explains things in a way that is easy to understand and has a real investment in his learners! Absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to get passed safely and quickly!
Great driving instructor, very friendly and easy going which made learning to drive stress free. I was able to pass comfortably because of this. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn how to drive.
Javid is an excellent instructor and has a great attitude towards his learners. His encouraging and kind manner allowed me to feel comfortable behind the wheel. This let me progress easily which led me to pass. I highly recommend this driving school!
Jav is an absolutely fantastic instructor. He's friendly, patient, and made every lesson comfortable and enjoyable. He knows exactly what makes a good driver, and was excellent at identifying my weakest points and making sure I was always being challenged and was always progressing. I just passed on my first attempt and I owe it to Jav, I highly recommend him to anyone.
Have passed my test today! Adrian has been very patient with me after some anxieties around driving from the past. Fantastic tuition and a great end result. Thank you!
Amazing professional instructor, would highly recommend over anyone else.
Top instructor and a good guy would recommend to anyone.
So happy to have passed my driving test first time yesterday with Adrian’s help! :) He was always patient but knew just how to encourage and push me further. I could not have done this without him! I thoroughly recommend Adrian to anyone as he really adapts his teaching style to your meet your needs! THANKS ADRIAN!
Big thank you to Adrian! Friendly and professional instructor. I passed my test 1st time, definitely recommend to anyone who’s looking for a Driving School!
Adrian is an extremely professional and caring tutor who really does care about his students. He adapts to whatever learning style the student requires and is very easy to learn from. Can not recommend him enough!
Best Instructor in Nottingham! Always had patience and went through everything over and over again to make sure I felt comfortable and knew what I was doing. He is incredibly professional such as by taking notes of every session, plans ahead of every lesson etc. Can’t thank him enough of all his help and support, and highly recommend Adrian to everyone from beginner to experienced...
I would highly recommend this school, Adrian's knowledge is fantastic and his ability to adapt his teaching style to fit any student such as myself has been wonderful, i can't express enough how much i would recommend Adrian. if you want a professional instructor, who cares about his students, he is definitely your guy.
Adrian is an amazing instructor. He really takes the time to understand how you learn, put you at ease and ask helpful questions to widen your understanding of driving. Would highly recommend!
Aroon was an excellent instructor. I feel like a confident driver and he prepared me very well for the driving test. Highly recommend!
Amazing patient instructor super helpful and understanding. Highly recommend - will get you to pass.
Very approachable and nice instructor. My husband says I am an excellent, vigilant driver thanks to Aroon. Passed my test today at Watnall and the lessons I had in the area were perfectly tailored for my test! Thank you for your instruction!
Best driver instructor. Nice guy.. Good teacher. Passed from 1st attempt at Colwick.
Thank you so much to Aroon for helping me pass my driving. Best of the few instructors I had. Taught me quickly and professionally. Would recommend him to anyone looking to learn how to drive.
Thanks to Aroon who helped me pass my driving test 1st time. Easy to get along with, always calm and gets the job done! Thanks once again for the help you have provided. Would definitely recommend!
Aroon is a great instructor - passed first time thanks to him teaching me from scratch. He is thorough, doesn't miss anything and helped me massively with anything i struggled with, and he's a sound guy all round. Would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn to drive.
Aroon - a friendly, talented and thorough instructor who makes you feel very comfortable and knows what he’s talking about - couldn’t have passed without his patience and guidance. I have now passed a confident driver and will highly recommend. Thanks Aroon!!!!
Got recommended from a friend about CJ’s to do my Towing licence, Caine made it fun, easy and a real down to earth guy felt like I had been towing for years and passed first time with not a single worry massive thank you CJ’s
Great driving instructor. Easy to get on with, fun and gave me lots of confidence. 🙂

Started my lessons around the beginning of Dec 18 with Jay, I had put it off for years as was terrified of driving but he made me feel comfortable behind the wheel in no time at all. I had to fit my lessons around work and also in a deadline due to me moving away and he always made time for my lessons. He is a really good teacher and I would like to say a friend now who helped me pass first time! So thank you :)
I had jay for my driving instructor he’s an amazing driving instructor told me everything i should know on how to pass I would of not passed if I didn’t I have him so thank you again for helping me pass first time thank you Jason 👍🏻👍🏻🚘🚘
Great driving instructor cheap driving lessons in nottingham (Website Removed by GoRoadie) driving lessons Nottingham go nowhere else
Chose the best driving instructor out there and passed first time with just 1 driver fault. If your serious about lessons and want to pass fast choose Jav highly recommend
A very easy going person to learn to drive with. I found my lessons very much enjoyable and something I looked forward to every week . Now that I've passed my practical driving test 1st time I will really miss my driving lessons with my instructor Jav highly recommended specially if your nervous about learning to drive like I was
Learning driving with Mani is a great experience so far. He is an amazing teacher with loads of experience. He is calm, funny, friendly and always on time. Because of him, I built up my driving confidence by the time. I relocate in Lincoln, so I took some lessons with a new instructor, and the new one cannot be compared to Mani. I am glad I took lessons from "Secure A Pass" and would like to recommend to anybody.
Mani is a top driving instructor. He's brilliant at making you feel confident on the road and pushes for you to pass. Can't recommend him more!! Always on time and not one of those driving instructors only bothered about rushing you back to finish if the lesson is running over. Thanks Mani!
Knowledgeable, reliable, top class! Would highly recommend to anyone! Passed first time with Mani who has so much patience and puts time and effort into everything to make sure you’re comfortable and confident. Also had a couple of lessons from Jav who is equally as good! Thank you:)
I recently passed my driving test first time with 0 driver faults with 'Secure a Pass'. Having Mani as my teacher made my experience a very enjoyable one. Mani is a natural teacher; he gave me a lot of confidence and always allowed me to take as many attempts as possible with manoeuvres until I felt happy with them. Mani's patience, friendliness and great attitude enabled me to learn and excel to the best I could. I couldn't recommend him enough! Thanks again Mani.
Mani is an amazing instructor! Very nice and relax to drive with him. Even when I make silly mistakes again and again, he will just teach me again and again in a very gently way! I can see he got the passion to teach but not just for earning money. He always over run the lesson if needed, sometime even more than 20 minutes!!!! And he never wastes any second in the lesson, always brings me to practise, which is the best and quickest way to learn. He make fast progress, he helps me pass in a very short time and I am able to pass at 1st time! I am much more than happy!!!! Thanks a lot Mani~~^o^ And I would highly recommend everyone who wanna learn drive to Mani!!!
Mani is a great instructor. Very patient and makes you feel at ease straight away. He is very knowledgeable and was a pleasure to learn with. I looked forward to my lessons each week and I passed first time. I would highly recommend him.
The worst driving instructor
Knowledgeable driving instructor who makes driving easy Very professional and friendly driving instructor, highly recommended for driving lessons
Ian was great! He was really friendly I would recommend to all of my friends and famliy.
Learning with Ian was excellent: he is a very patient and understanding teacher. He also has semi - decent banter
Jen is a great instructor. I passed first time with her. She is easy to talk to and knows what you need as a pupil.
I was 5.5 months pregnant when i decided i needed to learn to drive. I decided i wanted to do an automatic only crash course as i needed to pass quickly and had heard that Elevate was the best driving school in Nottingham to do this with. I called elevate and was assigned Julian and i honestly couldnt of wished for a better instructor! I was very nervous at the beginning but each lesson i had with Julian i noticed a little bit of the nerves would dissappear. Hes so down to earth and so thorough with his teaching techniques and also very patient! He understood how important it was for me to pass quickly with me being late in pregnancy and managed to get me a test booked for Colwick on bank holiday monday in which i passed first time! All this was completed within 6 weeks and i cannot thank and recommend him and Elevate driving school enough!!!
I recently passed my test after having lessons with Jean. She explained everything in a super helpful and easy to understand manner, building my confidence each week. I would highly recommend Jean to any new learners!
I can’t thank Julian enough. He’s a great instructor, patient and a really down to earth person which makes each lesson 10 times better. I passed my driving test with only one minor first time at a different test centre to where I was learning due to me taking a cancellation and Julian was so supportive and ensured I knew everything I needed to pass. I 100% recommend to anyone to go with Elevate and learn with Julian.
Julian is hands down the best instructor, he has everything that an instructor should have: He is calm in every situation, his patience just never ending and he always straight on point. His teaching method is amazing, we didn't waste even a minute, and successfully tackled all my weaknesses with efficient lessons! I had 25-30 hours of lessons in total with him and passed the practical test with only 6 minors!! ( as he predicted!) I definitely recommend him to everybody! Thanks a lot Julian, you are the best! Best Regards Luis
Julian was brilliant passed 2nd time forst time I had no instructor and filled on serious passed today with elevate with 1 minor I'm so happy thankyou so much for having confidence in me and believing in me
I went to Julian not being able to stay in my lane and had 0 confidence in my abilities to drive. I was adamant I’d never pass… But with all the patience and proper teaching from Julian I finally passed my driving test! I would recommend him time and time again to anyone wanting to pass their driving test confidently knowing they’re a good driver.
Julian Vincent is Professional in what he does but at the same time he makes you feel relaxed and confident in yourself which I needed. He made me feel like a friend NOT TEACHER AND PUPIL .
Julian is such an amazing teacher, he was very thorough with his teaching and explanations, he was very patient and supportive! He was also very friendly, I didn't feel any sort of pressure when driving with him which made my lessons so much more enjoyable. He was always on time and there was good communication outside of lessons. Overall I had a REALLY great experience with Elevate Driving School & Julian, passing second time round, which has a lot to do with Julian's techniques & his hard work. I would most definitely recommend Elevate to anyone. ONE VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER :)
Julian at Elevate was a amazing instructor, I hadn't been in a car trying to drive for a long time, having taken a over 10 year gap in learning. Getting in a car for a two week intensive course leading to a successful pass from Julian's confidence in me and his knowledge and experience on how to get the best out of his learners. Would recommend to anyone to not look anywhere else.
