What Our Students Say About Us

Top driving school and instructors! I had Tony as an instructor and haven’t got a single bad word to say about him. He’s to the point and tells you how it is, takes his time to make sure you know how it should be done to a high standard. I passed first time all thanks to him, highly recommended for anyone wanting to pass with ease!

I started having lessons with Andrew after more then 10 years away from driving and found him to be very professional and calming throughout my lessons Andrew was very knowledgeable and put me at ease, to be honest I couldn't have wished for a better instructor. Massive 5 star review. Thank you so much!

Tony was a great instructor - takes the time to show you everything and thinks about the learner individually, not just 'ticking off' what you'll be tested on. Great bloke, he's to thank for only getting one minor on my test and passing first time!

Couldn’t rate Libby John from 1st Driving School enough! She put me completely at ease after putting off driving for so long. I have recommended her to so many people already. I looked forward to every lesson, progressed at my speed and built so much confidence driving! She is such an amazing person, I will miss our lessons! Passed first time with one minor, can’t thank Libby enough. If you want to pass your test go with Libby!!!

A big thank you to Kev for helping me pass my driving test. Loved every driving lesson with Kev, he’s got so much patient and is always there to help with my worries about driving. He made me feel comfortable from the first day I had my driving lesson. Always reliable, 100% recommend Kev. I’ll miss my driving lessons and the laugh and chats we had, Kev your the best.

Had to change my driving instructor and I had a test approaching. 1st Driving School found me a last minute instructor within less then a weeks notice. Would highly recommend. Thank you Dan!!

Stuart Nelson was my tutor and he was a very good driving instructor. He helped me with everything and very easy person to get along with. I could not fault him in any way, nicest driving instructor you could get. I highly recommend him for any new driver or a driver that needs extra skills. Thanks again Stuart Nelson you are the best.

I’d been to two driving schools before coming across 1st and I have to say there is absolutely no comparison. It’s completely worth the investment. My instructor, Stuart helped me pass first time. I was sent weekly progress reports with action points for our next session and I knew I could contact him anytime with questions. The service is spot on and I felt very comfortable, safe and reassured while I was learning. Stuart even gave me extra tips for my own car (e.g. getting blind spot mirrors since it’s a tiny one) so he really went over and above for me. I would highly recommend 1st driving school without hesitation.

My instructor was Christine Parker and she was absolutely fantastic. She was very patient and calming with a vast knowledge of all things driving and beyond. Really enjoyed my lessons with her and I would highly recommend anyone thinking of taking lessons to choose Christine as their instructor. I passed first time after around 20 hours.

I did my driving lessons with Kev from 1st Driving School and he was brilliant! He taught me to drive safely and helped build up my confidence behind the wheel, I would 100% recommend, he was always reliable and very professional but you can also have a good laugh with him which made the lessons even better! Thanks Kev!

Dean was great from start to finish. Couldn't fault his way of teaching and I passed first time, overall money well spent.

Dean has been a great instructor! He’s always been patient and positive which really helped my confidence - I really enjoyed my lessons with him and would highly recommend him.

Start to finish my experience was great if im honest. Called up discussed free times and was allocated an instructor local to my chosen pickup location. My instructor Ajith was very patient explained the process and provided excellent tuition catering to my previous experience and wish for a quick completion. Thanks to him I passed 1st time would 100% recommend Ajith and the company for your lessons.

A wonderful experience with 1st Driving School especially Dave Berry. HIGHLY recommend. I passed my test with one minor which I had never got in mock tests. The teaching is amazing and they will work at your pace which reduces pressure and stress.

My instructor was Christine, she was very patient and understanding and helped me to be able to pass both tests first time.

I passed first time at 1st driving school. Dean is a brilliant instructor, I’d recommend him to anyone learning to drive!

Thanks to Dean, I passed first time. He was calm and patient and explained everything very clearly. He was also very flexible to fit around my timetable. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Just passed my driving test for the first time, all thanks to my amazing instructor, Rafhat Shah. His teaching style is structured and he teaches you to love and drive with confidence! He was very supportive and friendly. I would strongly recommend him to new learner. Thanks :)

Could not fault my driving instructor or 1st driving school. Had an amazing experience whilst learning. Would 1000% recommend !!

Very good driving school who allowed me to pass first time. I had Debbie who was great and made me feel comfortable at all times during all my lessons.

My Instructor was Roger and it was honestly the best experience, we had a laugh but he also was a very good teacher. Was always telling me where I’ve gone wrong and reminding me on what I need to do better. I passed my test 1st try all thanks to Roger. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants to start learning.

I changed driving school and went with 1st Driving School and can honestly not be more thankful, I wish I was with 1st since day one as my driving instructor, Dan Evans, was an excellent teacher and really ironed out all my mistakes and ended up passing first time. Highly recommend!

10/10, couldn’t have asked for a better teacher.

I have just passed my driving test first time with Andre Ogiste. He is punctual, reliable and professional in his thorough approach to teaching. Would certainly recommend.

Great instructor, made me feel at ease straight away and made my 40 hours glide by. Passed 1st time and would highly recommend. Thanks so much Tim.

Great experience! Rif was a fantastic instructor. Very patient and always made me feel at ease. Always punctual and great at explaining things! Passed with two minors! Thank you so much.
