My experience with this company was really positive at first! unfortunately the instructor I had was appalling, I have dyspraxia which is a really big challenge for me!. Peter stated I wasn't good enough to drive. I have only done 5 lessons. He kept on stating my disability would be a problem and I should use a taxi instead. He also stated that I was used to disappointments! I am only 19, this attitude towards people who aren't quick enough with learning is VILE.

Critical: Professionalism Blocking main roads such as Portland road during rush hour, taking drivers who obviously aren't ready yet driving at speeds of only up to 10mph. Massively unprofessional and also looked pretty upsetting for learner too. RESPECT OTHER ROAD USERS PLEASE.

Just passed my practical driving test with Lady Drive/His&Hers and the experience was amazing! Highly recommend learning with this company - my friendly and patient instructor Zoe was incredible, she was so helpful and made the experience so much easier for me as a nervous learner! Will be recommending them to everyone I know now! Thanks again Zoe!

I had to upgrade my license to a full manual license at the beginning of the year. Trevor was brilliant, made me feel comfortable, and was able to change all my bad driving habits quickly and efficiently. Thanks Trev!
