"I started driving over a year ago and came to Steve after having a bad experience with another driving instructor.I have really enjoyed my driving lessons with Steve he makes every lesson so fun and enjoyable. Steve is so patient and will help you however he can to make driving that little bit easier for you.He takes time to find ways/techniques to help you remember and learn what to do. I haven’t always found it the easiest learning to drive but Steve motivated me to keep going and made me keep positive. Steve has given me to confidence to help me drive today. Steve can tell how you are feeling just by your driving and finds a deeper way to try and help understand how to make thing better/easier. He even lets you choose where you want to go on every lesson. He has also helped me with motorway driving which was something I was anxious about. I highly recommend this driving school!"

"I started doing driving lessons over a year ago now and I had a previous instructor in that time as well. I found driving difficult to begin with but Steve makes you feel comfortable and as well as being patient and calm, he also let’s you drive wherever you want, including going on the motorway, and he will always help you when you need him to. He will not only get you ready for your test but also get you ready for driving on your own once you’ve passed. I would highly recommend this driving school."
