DRIVING-PRO REVIEWS

I passed my driving test on my first try, and it is all thanks to Jo! Thank you so much for teaching me how to be a confident, safe driver on the road. She is absolutely brilliant, and I cannot recommend her enough to others. I did an intensive course, and her patience and outstanding knowledge helped me improve my weaknesses. Jo's clear instructions and calm demeanour made every lesson enjoyable and stress-free. Her ability to tailor the lessons to my specific needs ensured that I made steady progress. If you're looking for a dedicated, professional, and supportive driving instructor, Jo is the perfect choice! :).

Passed my driving test on the first try thanks to Gav today! He is an amazing instructor who consistently made me feel confident behind the wheel and never made me feel stupid over any silly mistake I made. He’s very patient, encouraging, and I always felt at ease when driving with him, making every lesson enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend Gav to anyone looking for a supportive and effective driving instructor!

Passed my test first time today, I would highly recommend Doug to pick as a driving instructor. Doug was very professional and always patient with me helping me become a progressive and confident driver. I couldn’t of picked a better instructor and he was the reason I passed first time today.

1 DRIVE SCHOOL OF MOTORING REVIEWS

I’ll be very honest I don’t even know where to start! I’ve been having lessons with Mark from 1Drive! Absolutely amazing. Great guy. Very thorough with teaching me how to drive. My confidence wasn’t 100% when I first started. Now I have passed first time it’s amazing to know that this man gave me that confidence to pass and make sure I need to do everything to pass. Today on the 11th of June I passed with only 3 minors. I am very proud of this all thanks to mark! Great work Mark!! Will definitely be recommending to my friends and family or even if someone asks me for the best. Thank you so much Mark.

Great experience, passed first try! Had Tony as my instructor, was very friendly and provided a great learning experience and customised lessons to suit all my needs. Definitely recommend 10/10. Professional, easy to contact and provided for a very comfortable and smooth learning experience.

10/10 would recommend. I was very nervous to learn to drive. Thanks to 1Drive for not only helping me conquer my nerves but for providing an enjoyable experience, start to finish. My instructor, Deucalion, was there every step of the way and made sure I felt prepared for my test, which I passed first try (with zero faults!).

DRIVE CONFIDENT REVIEWS

Absolutely amazing teacher! I truly never thought that I would ever be able to drive and had almost given up before giving it one last shot. As someone who had learnt unsuccessfully with 3 different instructors, I can't recommend Dilwar enough. He's an amazing teacher and on every lesson you will get... 1. A supportive, empathetic and encouraging instructor. Even on your worst lessons, Dilwar will always be there to encourage you, build your confidence and adapt his teaching style or lesson to suit your needs. He really understands the difference that being able to drive can make to peoples lives and how frustrating the process can be, so he'll always be by your side to push you on. 2. Proper, transferrable driving skills so that you'll feel confident and capable to drive on any road, not just the test routes. He teaches to an incredibly high standard, so much so that when you take your test, it will feel like a breeze.

I had Dilwar as an instructor and he was very good throughout the whole time I was learning to drive. He made sure I was comfortable on my first lesson as I hadn’t been in a car for ages. He continuously made sure throughout my learning that I had retained the information and didn’t step in too much as he wanted to make sure I had actually listened and learned from him. He would always ask what I thought I needed more help with and wasn’t confident with so we could work on that more leading up to my test. I managed to pass my test first time with him!

I put off learning to drive for years because I was so anxious about it and genuinely believed I couldn’t do it. Dilwar was amazing, he was very patient but also knew when I just needed to get on with it , which has really helped build my confidence. He believed in me all the way and I just passed my test first time which is something I didn’t think was possible! I don’t think I could have achieved this with a different instructor, so a massive thank you to Dilwar. I would recommend him to anyone!!
