Pros:
"Dave's a great teacher, able to make learning fun while at the same time ensuring that you know what's needed and what to watch for."
"Dave was absolutely brilliant and very patient while training me."
"Dave makes you feel comfortable and safe but also will point out where you go wrong so you can get it right."
"Dave is an awesome instructor and was a really funny guy he was always straight to the point If I done something wrong."
"Dave has a great rapport with the examiners at the Farnborough test centre which immediately puts you at ease when going for your test."
"Dave is very practical, professional and motivational, with a common sense approach and good sense of humour."
"Dave, who has great knowledge and made everything easy to understand."
Cons:
"Dave nice but quite brash and not great at boosting confidence."
"Dave appeared to be moody at times."
"Horrible, he's very huge and i contact him on whatsapp to ask him about how to book and he just said pay by card."
"Pretty hands-off training with very little feedback."
"Dave tells it like it is and he will get you ready for your test."
"Daves methods might not be for everyone, and if that's so, that's probably a You problem."
"After he called me 'sweet cheeks' from the get go, laughed at my drivers license photograph and then heckled me about my eyesight I was happy to leave."
Customer Service
Pros:
"Matt and Dave do give clear instructions and are able to fit you in as best they can but they are busy a lot and it can be hard to get through sometimes."
"Extremely informative and helpful every step of the way."
"Both Matt and Dave are approachable guys and will work with you to strengthen your weaker areas and they give you knowledge that may, one day, save your life on the road."
"Dave is always busy but always willing to squeeze you in where he can, Great teaching style and great banta."
"Very knowledgable and understanding with every aspect of the tasks and took us out on the roads with great communication and advice."
"Dave has lots of experience and provided good feedback to help us progress."
"He knows his stuff and good experienced rider."
Cons:
"An offer of a full refund would have been more acceptable so that I could go to someone else who could actually train me."
"Unfortunately, I would not recommend M&D Training and, in fact, I did not begin or complete my training since Dave refused to train me!"
"Their small facility in Guildford is not good enough for Mod 1."
"Worst experience ever, where its suppose to be exciting."
"They offered no refund so paid a lot of money for absolutely nothing."
"Quick enough to take your money but too quick to finish."
"AVOID M AND D AT ALL COSTS........."
Training Effectiveness
Pros:
"After only a couple of lessons I now feel confident to get back on a motorbike."
"I started as a complete novice having no experience at all but dave took me through my cbt all the through to my full bike licence and was amazing at teaching."
"I’m not an experienced rider but with his tuition I passed Mod 1 and today Mod 2. Both 1st time."
"Genuinely great instruction, with a fantastic sense of humour."
"Dave taught me defensive riding techniques but in a way that was genuinely enjoyable."
"Top notch motorcycles to complete your training on. I rode the Yamaha MT-07 and I’m thrilled to say I passed my test first time."
"Passed first time on both my Mod 1 and Mod 2 tests for the A2 license."
Cons:
"Did not even cover an emergency stop."
"Left not feeling very confident about passing my MOD1 and failed it exactly as expected on the U-turn first time."
"The instruction was very piecemeal and there wasn't a lot of help given to actually improve."
"Slightly disparaging receiving so little feedback, having a small practice area and getting so little time on MOD1 training time in Farnborough."
"I hardly got any Mod 2 training with M & D even though I paid for it."
"Refused extra training on the day."
"Terrible experience a couple of years back, turned up to have them refuse CBT training."
