Instructor was patient however blamed me for failing my driving test. Made to feel completely worthless as was told after the fail that any other instructor would not have put a student through the test as they knew I wasn't ready. They were however happy to take money from me for 2hrs worth of lessons prior to the test.

My friend recommended this driving school after hearing how I was struggling with a previous instructor. I wish I had chosen Mike from the beginning as I learnt more in 1 lesson than I ever did with the other instructor. Very professional manner and I felt so confident after just a handful of lessons. Apart from being a great teacher Mike is also a great guy whom I now regard as a friend. Thanks Mike.

Highly recommended. I heard so many good things about this driving school and wasn't disappointed. Mike was very professional and overall very nice guy. I previously had other instructors but they were useless and unreliable. Honestly, if you are looking to start lessons Mike will motivate you and make you feel confident.

I passed my driving test on the first attempt with less than the recommended amount of lessons all thanks to Mike. My lessons were enjoyable and I always looked forward to them. Mike puts you at ease and makes learning to drive as easy as possible. The best!
