Before I had Chris as an instructor, I hated driving, I would dread my lessons and feel so nervous every time. Since having Chris, I absolutely love driving! He has the patience of a saint and makes lessons so enjoyable. Very friendly, teaches in a way that suits me perfectly and always calm. I’ve learned so much from him and would honestly recommend him to anyone.

Claire Martin

I have been driving for a few years, I completed refresher lessons with Chris and then moved onto complete a Pass Plus, advanced driving course. I learned a lot, I feel much more confident driving now. He explained things clearly and is a very approachable and knowledgable instructor. I would recommend him to anyone learning for the first time, or wanting to advance their understanding or confidence.

Luke H.

Chris is a fantastic instructor! Explains everything really clearly and really takes note on your progress, where you can improve and where you're doing well. He's very patient and understanding when it comes to a slip up even if you've gone over the same topic multiple times. Can really tell he just wants you to excell and feel comfortable driving and get you ready and confident for your test. It'll be easier to pass your test with Chris than to find an instructor better than him.

Arran Leith

Chris is an absolute god send of a instructor anything you don’t understand he will happily go over with patience to make sure you understand clearly. He makes you feel so welcome and you get to have a great laugh too. I would definitely recommend to anyone starting to drive.

Emma Wilkinson

I had an excellent experience learning to drive with Chris.

Professional service all the way through with ongoing communication, punctual pick ups and administrative support when booking tests and lessons as required.

During lessons, Chris understands the need for nervous drivers to build confidence. He manages to create a very relaxed atmosphere, whilst remaining calm, friendly and patient throughout.

Would honestly recommend Chris to anyone wanting to learn or refresh their driving skills. Couldn’t have passed without him!

Stephen M

From having absolutely no experience in driving, Chris did an amazing job in making me feel at ease from the off, teaching me his knowledge and giving me the confidence to progress in every lesson. I passed my test 1st time and can’t thank him enough for it. A life changer! I actually miss having lessons now because it was always a good laugh and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

Lee Weightman

Due to Covid-19, I was unable to get behind the wheel for 2 years, I started learning with Chris, he quickly got me back into it. Great learning environment as he is chilled but keeps you on your toes which helped me pass first time with 2 minors. 100% recommend.

John E

I would highly recommend chris as a driving instructor. I've had a few driving instructors before chris and never learnt half as much as chris taught me. I passed my test first time with chris!! He is a very patient attentive instructor who makes you feel comfortable behind the wheel. He adapted every lesson to suit my needs and help me overcome my weaknesss.Thank you for helping me pass my test and for making driving easier to understand. I couldn't of done it without him.
