"I decided to go with Steve as I come across his website whilst looking for another instructor as my previous teacher had let me down. I'd recommend Steve to anyone wanting to drive! His laid back teaching approach made me feel so relaxed which really helped me personally. His app is amazing! It literally has everything you need on it and it's so easy to use! Thanks again Steve for teaching me!"
