I had driving instructor Michael Robb. I soon found I was very lucky to have gotten someone who teaches to such high standards and makes it enjoyable at the same time. Any mistakes you make are picked up on or any queries about driving on the road are all quickly fixed and answered in a positive and friendly manner. I would recommend Michael Robb to anyone who is looking for these same qualities.

I passed my test, first attempt. Mr. David Tasler from acclaim driving school was my instructor. He is a very friendly and calm person. He put me at ease straight away and helped build my confidence within the first couple of lessons. Would highly recommend.

Abdul Hannan is the best instructor I could've asked for. He is amazing! If you are in the Leicester area, I would recommend him. He was very punctual, never late and never cancelled on me. The lessons were enjoyable; he had a lot of patience and was always encouraging when I found some tasks difficult. He is a very friendly and approachable person, which made the lessons better and made me feel more relaxed.
He would always go over areas that I didn't understand and ensure I became confident in them. I started my lessons in March and passed my test at the end of April at the Wigston test centre with only two minors. He taught me how to be a safe driver; I will remember him for life. Choose him as your instructor!

Guy McMillan was the best instructor I could have asked for. He was patient and kind, most of all he really helped me get over all the issues that were holding me back, which was extremely helpful as someone who's a bit of a nervous driver. Equipped me with the skills and know-how to get past those particular blocks in the future as well as getting me road worthy and safe. Couldn't be happier with Acclaim and my instructor, thank you so, so much for everything!

I did an intensive course with the instructor Gary and had such a wonderful experience, he was always willing to answer questions I had, taught me how to drive correctly and put me at ease/ kept me calm throughout the whole course. He's really friendly and such a nice person, I passed first time with only 2 minors thanks to him. Can't recommend him enough! :
