Instructor Effectiveness and Teaching Style

Pros:

  • "He is seriously knowledgeable about all the test routes, and we practiced them loads."
  • "Zoran made sure that I was overly prepared as to help decrease any margin of error in order for me to pass my test."
  • "Benn was brilliant from the start, great communicating with my son as well as myself."
  • "Dean makes driving lessons fun but informative so there’s no need to be nervous when you first start."
  • "Judith made me focus on my areas that needed improvement and really built my confidence."
  • "Kalp lets you learn at your own pace, but at the same time there’s always a sense of progress."
  • "Ditta put all my nervous at ease as soon as I got in the car. She is very patient and continuously gave me encouragement."
  • "Dean is an incredible instructor, the best I could find in 4 years! After the first evaluating lesson he knew exactly how to teach me in the right way."

Cons:

  • "Unfortunately my instructor had a test with another pupil on my test time as well, turns out I have to use my friend's car."
  • "On my first lesson the instructor didn't even allow me to drive the car, she just sat and told me how to drive/how the car works."
  • "Instructor was always late to lessons, then we only spent half of it driving, the other half was him telling me his life story."
  • "Paid for 10hrs, instructor cut a few lessons short and raised his voice to me when I didn't understand instruction."

Passing the Test and Confidence Building

Pros:

  • "Passed my driving test the first time thanks to my instructor Zoran!"
  • "I passed my test on my second try thanks to Szabi. He's such a great driving instructor!"
  • "My daughter recently passed her test 1st time with Mike (and with only 1 minor!)"
  • "I passed the driving test in my first attempt, thanks to my instructor Mahadeva."
  • "I passed my test today and it’s all because of Dean who is a brilliant driving instructor."
  • "Zoran was my instructor (automatic car) for the past few months... I passed first time with only one minor mistake!"
  • "Passed first time after 7 months of lessons thanks to Hamilton. Ditta was a great instructor- very detail oriented."
  • "I am proud to say that I have taken my driving license in the first attempt, only because of the instructor Mr Brian Hussey."

Cons:

  • "I passed after lessons with Mike. He is an outstanding teacher and very calming in his approach to teaching new drivers."
  • "I had previously driven a lot, and so my level was already quite high, however my instructor Masum made sure that i kicked any bad habits out."
  • "After taking several tests with another instructor I was close to giving up learning to drive."
  • "I'm a 38y.o. and have always considered myself being an anxious driver... I began taking lessons before pandemic and had changed 6(!) driving instructors since 2019."

Personalized and Flexible Learning Experience

Pros:

  • "He's super adaptable, tailoring his approach to fit how I learn best."
  • "Lipon is an amazing driving instructor! He was really supportive, very calm and provided me with so much knowledge."
  • "Judith was the 5th driving instructor I worked with... Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and communicates clearly but she is kind, patient, respectful."
  • "Kalp was an amazing instructor. Really top bloke, friendly, motivating and focused with teaching me how to drive from scratch."

Cons:

  • "It was particularly challenging to find an instructor who would be patient enough with my anxiety behind the wheel and constant self-doubt."
  • "She cancelled me three times within 24 hours and once 2 hours before my lesson. When I cancelled her 20 hours before my lesson she kindly reminded me about 24 hours policy."
  • "Very disappointing service. Paid for 10hrs, instructor cut a few lessons short and raised his voice to me."
  • "I only did around 3 or 4 lessons with this company until I decided to stop; each week we did the same thing over and over even though the instructor promised me each week we would try someone new."
