How-2-Drive: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I just wanted to share how amazing my instructor Emma Ramoutar has been. From my very first lesson she has been so patient, kind and supportive and after a very negative experience with a previous driving instructor, she has completely restored my confidence behind the wheel, I now genuinely look forward to each lesson. Highly recommend to any new prospective drivers Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor !
Thank you Astrid for leaving Emma Ramoutar 5 stars- it is really appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Recently passed first time with Rob. I would really recommend him, he was very patient and lessons were always tailored to me.
Thank you Elitsa for taking the time to leave Rob Shoyer 5 stars - it means a lot. Well done on the great pass
Fantastic experience: Great experience learning to drive with Kevin Boone, Passed first time with two minors. Kevin took the time to perfect all elements of my driving. Would highly recommend to anyone learning to drive!!
Thanks for the review Will, we really appreciate it. Congratulations on your super first-time pass and wishing you all the best on the roads!
Fantastic experience: I could not be more thankful to the How-2-Drive Team. I started automatic lessons with Nicole after years of anxiety around driving, and very low confidence. Nicole was so patient and supportive throughout the entire process. I quickly gained confidence and four months later passed my test first time with only two minors. She never made me feel silly for making mistakes, and designed lessons around areas I felt I needed more work with. She was super reliable, always communicated well. I highly recommend Nicole.
Thank you Libby for taking the time to leave Nicole Hicks 5 stars - so glad you achieved your goal. Keep safe
Fantastic experience: Should’ve done this way sooner but honestly 10/10 driving experience, the Instructor was always very calm and kept cool about everything, and I 100% recommend for anyone who wants ants to be driving soon
Thank you for taking the time to leave instructor Juan Rossa a 5 star review, we're so pleased you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive!
Fantastic experience: Gareth is an excellent instructor. I passed first time with just one minor driving fault. Highly recommend!
Brilliant result Robert! Congratulations and thanks for taking the time to leave Gareth this awesome review, we really appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: I recently completed an intensive driving course and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I had my lessons with Ivanoy, who was fantastic—always helpful and providing excellent support throughout the entire process. The service I received was top-notch and the planning was flawless. I felt confident and well-prepared for my test, which I passed. Highly recommend!
Thank you Casper for the awesome review for Ivanoy and well done on passing your test! Wishing you all the best.
Fantastic experience: I was taught by Tim Ecclestone. He had a very reassuring approach which helped me build my confidence. I went from being very nervous to passing my test with 0 faults. Very grateful and appreciative for having such an informative yet patient instructor!
Thanks for taking the time to leave this awesome review Amelia. And congratulations on your super result!! Wishing you all the best.
Fantastic experience: Driving exam date was 22 Mar 2024 I had a fantastic experience with How-2-Drive. My instructor(Michael Callender) was incredibly nice, patient, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout my lessons. Thanks to his clear guidance and support, I was able to pass my driving test with confidence. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to learn how to drive!
Thank you for taking the time to leave Michael Callender 5 stars - I hope you have been enjoying being out on the roads
Fantastic experience: I am writing this review after recently passing my test. I first failed my test when with a private instructor, and began to look for a new one, I reached out to How2Drive via email and was immediately helped and sorted into lessons within a week, which was excellent for me. My instructor was Rob Shoyer, who took me on after I failed my first test. He was immediately welcoming and helpful, never making me feel out of place as a student in the car. He allowed me to have a say in my lessons, where my money went and what content we focused on. Rob was extremely helpful, and great company, as stressful as driving can be, he went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable and not overwhelmed, always offering breaks and allowing me to put my own music on. With Rob, I took my second test, first with How2Drive, and passed. I will always recommend him, and How2Drive to anyone looking to start lessons, or refresh their skills. Thank you to all! Looking forward to getting on the road alone now.
Well done Callum on the pass - we are so pleased for you. Thank you for leaving Rob Shoyer 5 stars - it means a lot
Fantastic experience: Simon was a brilliant instructor, we spent a number of lessons correcting things and he explained things in a different way when I struggled to grasp them. Overall, excellent experience, would recommend weekly lessons as having a break slowed down my progress. Thanks so much Simon, I'm s pleased to have passed.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Simon Disney 5 stars, we're so pleased you enjoyed your experience!
Fantastic experience: First and foremost, I thank the Creator. After a lot of hard work, I have finally passed. After thanking the Creator, I must thank Ramoutar. He teaches exceptionally well. I had taken classes with other trainers before but couldn’t understand many things properly, which Ramoutar explained effortlessly. In my opinion, Ramoutar stands out as an Approved Driving Instructor compared to others, especially when it comes to drawing. He demonstrates and explains even the smallest details with exceptional sketches. Listen to your trainer, and only when they say, you are ready should you go for the test. Don’t rush before that! A special thanks to How 2 Drive for establishing such an amazing brand.
Thank you Hasan for taking the time to leave this lovely review for Karlton Ramoutar. Congratulations on your super result and we all wish you the best with your future driving.
Fantastic experience: Passed my test first time and feel super confident in my ability, thanks to my brilliant instructor Jerry. Jerry really polished my driving and I always looked forward to lessons with him, super friendly and a great teacher. All his teaching was easy to digest as a nervous driver( especially on roundabouts) and he was super efficient. I really owe my pass, safety and confidence to him, a fantastic instructor who always found a way to help me understand and feel safer on the road. Brilliant teacher. I reached out to How2drive and they secured me an instructor ASAP, the team is great and efficient. Couldn’t recommend their service more.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Jerry Hindley 5 stars - great result. Hope you enjoy being out on the roads
Negative experience: Maybe the driver who cut up two lanes of traffic at Fullers Hill "roundabout" to cut me up at 07:15 this morning could use a few lessons in how to use that particular gyratory, the lanes are clearly labeled, and if he needed to gain access from Asda side, he needed to stick to the far left lane, so he doesn't cause an accident in a company car ironically labeled "how2Drive" by cutting over 2 lanes in an accident hotspot. Coincidentally this possibly could be the same driver who enters limited access roads, reverses on pedestrianised roads with school children around, and parks on double yellows to do school run. If you want to drive badly, don't do it with your company name on it.
Hi Keiran - so we can look into the dashcam footage, it would be great if you could call me on 07751 834104 to discuss make/model of car, location etc. Thank you, Sam Director How 2 Drive
Fantastic experience: Was instructed by Adam Manista and was thoroughly impressed with his professionalism and ease of which he taught me. I would highly recommend anyone using How 2 Drive to ask for Adam specifically if you are a nervous or anxious about learning as well. Adam is calm, informative and knowledgeable about all facets of driving and I cannot sing his praises enough.
Thanks for taking the time to write this review Stewart, we really appreciate it. Congratulations on passing your test!
Fantastic experience: Thrilled to say I passed first time today after working with Chris Read. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor - very patient, encouraging and a genuinely lovely person. He knew when I needed a challenge and when I needed some time to stop and work on something, breaking something down until it was clear and understandable. I couldn't be more thrilled and couldn't recommend Chris and How-2-Drive enough!
Thanks for the review Jakob and well done on your first time pass! Wishing you all the best on the roads.
Fantastic experience: "I had the pleasure of learning with Adam Manista, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! From the very first lesson, he was very patient, professional, and made sure I felt confident behind the wheel. Adam explained everything clearly, gave me constructive feedback, and always kept the lessons engaging and focused. Thanks to their guidance, I passed my driving test today. Highly recommend Adam Manista to anyone looking for a skilled and friendly instructor."
Thanks for this great review Charan and congratulations on your pass! Wishing you all the best on the roads.
Fantastic experience: Just passed my driving test first time after an intensive course with Paul Branford, highly recommend as he gave me confidence on the road, very patient and friendly.
Well done Warren on the super pass-we are so pleased for you. Thank you for taking the time to leave Paul Branford 5 stars
Fantastic experience: Adrian is an amazing instructor! He’s so patient and explains everything so well. He’s a laugh to be around and makes the lessons calm and enjoyable.
Well done Lauren on the amazing ZERO fault pass. A great achievement. Thank you for leaving Adrian Stimpson 5 stars
Fantastic experience: passed my test first time after taking the intensive course with Ivan. Enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Ivan Brito a 5 star review and congratulations on your super first time pass!
Fantastic experience: Successfully passed my driving test on my first attempt with the amazing support from my instructor, Chris Backshall. A great instructor who answered all my questions and always took the time to explain everything from start to finish and again if I still had any doubts. Thank you for all the support, I highly recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Chris a five star review and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: Passed on first attempt with only one fault all credits to my instructor Simon Disney. Was very patient with me from the beginning and made sure that we went through every aspect of the training without a rush. Always insisted on Safety! 5 star deserved!!
Thanks for the great review George. Congratulations on your first time pass!
Fantastic experience: I passed my test with wayne Bennett yesterday, I think im still in shock but wanted to say he is a brilliant, kind, calm, knowledgeable instructor, I was an extremely nervous driver with little to no confidence but wayne brought all the confidence out in me, I can't recommend him enough! Thankyou for not giving up on me, will miss our lessons & chats! To current and future students of Wayne's you are in safe hands. Thankyou again for everything!
Thank you for taking the time to leave Wayne 5 stars and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! My son, Aksayan, passed on his first attempt today thanks to Andrew Birch’s kind and patient teaching. Instructor who is always on time and calm. Would give more than 5*s but that isn’t possible on google!
Thank you for taking the time to leave Andrew Birch such a lovely review- it really means a lot
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! I passed my driving test first time with Sara Jenkins as my instructor. Lessons were always planned to target weaknesses in my driving which allowed me to improve and gain confidence. Sara was very patient and I always felt comfortable to ask questions.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Sara Jenkins a 5 star review, congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: Jim was very patient and thorough in preparing me for my driving test! After 30 years of driving in America, I was nervous about adapting to the UK rules, but Jim made lessons very relaxed and straightforward. I passed both theory and practical test first time. Thanks Jim!!
Thanks for the lovely review Kelly. We're really glad you got so much out of your lessons with Jim. Massive congratulations on your first time pass too! Wishing you all the best with your future driving.
Fantastic experience: Very good lesson, felt like I've achieved a lot in the past 2 lessons. Andrew is a great calm instructor.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave Andrew Blaxter a 5 star review, we're so pleased you enjoyed your lessons.
Fantastic experience: I am incredibly grateful for the driving instruction I received from Adam. From the moment I started lessons, it was clear that he was not only highly skilled but also patient and encouraging. Adam took the time to thoroughly explain each aspect of driving, from the basics to more advanced techniques, ensuring I felt confident and prepared for my test. The lessons were always structured, focused, and tailored to my specific needs. He took the time to explain every detail, whether it was perfecting my parallel parking, mastering tricky intersections, or boosting my confidence on the freeway. With each lesson, I felt my driving abilities become more refined and my self-assurance behind the wheel grow exponentially. What really stood out to me was his calm demeanor, especially when I made mistakes. Instead of getting frustrated, Adam would calmly guide me through what went wrong and help me correct it. By this approach he made me feel more at ease behind the wheel and ultimately helped me pass my driving test on the first try. If you're looking for an instructor who is knowledgeable, patient, and committed to your success, I highly recommend Adam. Thanks to your guidance, I feel confident and ready to drive on my own!
Benita, thanks for such a lovely review. We really appreciate it! And congratulations on your first time pass! Wishing you all the best with your driving in the future.
Fantastic experience: Glad to say I passed my driving test this morning, I couldn’t have done it without my amazing instructor Barry R!!! Previously work colleagues switched to instructor and pupil I genuinely couldn’t recommend him enough. As an instructor Barry was so comforting, informative and observational and as a person he is a genuinely great bloke and definitely a laugh. He helped me work on my faults from my previous tests as well as rebuilding my confidence and geared me up with the knowledge and understanding to improve my driving and PASS!! Thankyou so much Barry!!
Awesome review Darcy! Thanks for taking the time to post this, its really appreciated. Congratulations on passing your test and wishing you all the best on your driving journey!

Thanks so much for the review for Ivan, Emma! And huge congratulations on your first time pass too!
Fantastic experience: Adrian was a fantastic instructor. Always gave clear instructions on what needed to happen during the lesson and how we would go about the resources we learn. Always made the lessons fun and possible on the times i could work around. Passed first try thanks to him.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant instructor Adrian knows what he is doing has plenty of patience and gives a lot of confidence to his students cancellation was quick as well passede first time would highly recommend
Hi Joe, thanks for this awesome review for Adrian, we really appreciate it! And congratulations on your first time pass too!
Fantastic experience: So pleased to say I passed first time today, all thanks to my INCREDIBLE driving instructor, Mark Reynolds!! As someone who had never sat in the driver's seat of a car before, I was very nervous about learning to drive! Mark is the perfect instructor for any nervous new driver, being so patient and reassuring whilst breaking everything down making everything a lot easier to process and understand! You're also guaranteed to have a few laughs with him too! Honestly couldn't be happier with my time being taught by Mark! Definitely going to miss my Monday midday lessons!! Thank you so much for everything Mark!
Well done Chantelle on the super first time pass - and Examiner thought it was great too! Mark Reynolds is so happy for you - thanks for the review
Fantastic experience: Having just passed my test I would really like to highlight how much I would recommend Mike Knap as an instructor. He always made me feel very comfortable and at ease, and his teaching methods were very effective and structured. He also helped me feel much more confident in my ability and I appreciate how much he believed in me - Would recommend to anyone. Thanks so much :)
Thanks Poppy for taking the time to leave a review. Congratulations on passing your test and wishing you all the best with your future driving!
Fantastic experience: I passed my test today thanks to the help of Ian Mulley! I’m naturally nervous and anxious but Ian was so good and helped me learn at my own pace. I honestly would never have passed without him! 10/10 recommend.
Congratulations Chloe! Thanks very much for taking the time to leave this review, we really appreciate it. All the best on your driving journey!
Negative experience: Driving instructor charged me the full 2 hours because I was 20 minutes late, yes I appreciate that I was late however I feel scammed as I payed for 2 hours yet the driving instructor was conveniently busy during that time which I think is unacceptable as I payed for 2h and the instructor should have scheduled for. I have since had lessons with another instructor who has not held it against me when I've made mistakes as as he says "it is my lesson" that I am paying for which I agree with so time I've wasted is mine not the instructors they're getting payed to do nothing if I'm late !!
Hi Rhoslyn- if you would like to contact me to discuss the situation, my number is 07751834104 Sam Floyd Director How 2 Drive
Fantastic experience: I have passed my driving test today in one attempt with Mark Horne. Every lesson was well structured with clear goals set, aiding my continuous development as a Learner driver. Mark was pleasant, talkative and always created a positive and fun learning environment. He gave me excellant guidence, really putting in the effort to improve any aspect of my driving which I was struggling with. Before my test, Mark gave me a lot of reassurance which improved my confidence to perform at a very high level on the test. Thanks for the help Mark, and I wish you all the best for the future.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave Mark Horne such a fantastic review, congratulations on your first time pass!
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Adrian Stimpson as an instructor enough! Thanks to his patience, clear, and supportive teaching style, I passed my driving test on the first attempt with only one minor. He tailored each lesson to focus on areas I needed to improve, always giving constructive feedback and made sure I was fully prepared for every part of the test. If you're looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about helping you succeed, look no further. Thank you Adrian for making learning to drive such a positive experience!!
Thanks so much Roshni. We really appreciate your positive feedback. Congratulations on your excellent first-time pass and wishing you all the best with your future driving.
Fantastic experience: I just had my first lesson with Andrew and it went so well! He explained everything so clearly in a way I could understand. Very patient and I felt very comfortable and confident to book more lessons with him in the near future. Would definitely recommend for beginners that are a bit nervous too. 10/10:)
Thank you for this lovely review. We're really happy that you enjoyed your first lesson with us and appreciate the feedback. Wishing you all the best with your driving journey!
Fantastic experience: Eeeeeek! I passed my driving test this morning all thanks to Wayne Bennett! Could not recommend Wayne enough.. I went into this very anxious but Wayne never gave up on me!

Going to miss my lessons & our chats! Again, massive thankyou to Wayne & How2Drive :)

I feel very fortunate to have worked with such a dedicated and knowledgeable instructor.Reem
Congratulations Reem on passing with Tim. It was a pleasure to meet you when we did your Mock Test together the week before your test. Thanks for choosing us. Howard
Fantastic experience: I had Adam as my instructor and he went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and safe during my lessons.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us 5 stars - so pleased you enjoyed your lessons

Thank you for taking the time to leave Adrian Stimpson a five star review and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: This experience has been so much better than I ever thought it would be. Learning to drive is daunting to anyone, but I suffered with anxiety for most of my adult life and never thought it would be possible for me. Simon Disney was great, straight away felt comfortable. He's patient, knowledgeable and someone you can have a laugh with. It's a great balance. Will forever be grateful for the support. Highly reccomend to anyone who wants to start driving. Couldn't be happier.
Well done Katy on overcoming your anxiety and achieving a super pass- Simon Disney is so happy for you

Fantastic experience: I’m glad to say that I passed my driving test first time today and it is all thanks to my driving instructor Mark Reynolds. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor, he was always super patient and encouraging in all of my lessons and I always felt like I learnt something every lesson. I couldn’t recommend Mark and the How 2 Drive team enough to new learners and I am going to miss our weekly lessons together. 10/10 service and I am fully satisfied with the lessons!
Thank you Ben for taking the time to leave Mark Reynolds such a great review - it is really appreciated

Fantastic experience: I recently passed my driving test at my first attempt, and I owe a tremendous amount of gratitude to my instructor Blair Wilson as I would not have done so without his unwavering patience, encouragement throughout my driving lessons. Blair was always punctual, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure I was well-prepared for my driving test. Even when my test was booked for "Silly o'clock" as he called it, he still turned up to make sure I got the pass. Thanks to Him, I now have my license and I couldn't be more grateful.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Blair a 5 star review, we're so pleased you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive!

Fantastic experience: Thanks to my absolutely amazing,no non-sense, mature and encouraging instructor Andrew Hazelwood. Without whom, I would not have passed in the first attempt. He drove up my confidence, made me absolutely conscious of safety, reasoned well with me and encouraged me to practice when I made mistakes while learning. Thank You 'How2drive' for the app that helped me score well with my theory test as well.
Thank you Dennis for leaving Instructor Andrew Hazelwood a 5 star review. We're so pleased that you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Ian Mulley as a driving instructor, he is really friendly & confidence-boosting! He helped to keep my nerves at bay & was calm and encouraging always, he will make sure you learn everything that’s required to pass your driving test, he centres to your individual learning needs and has different resources to help along the way. Ian genuinely wants to see you pass and I couldn’t have done it without his expertise! Thankyou so much!!
Well done Kelly on the super first time pass - Ian Mulley was so happy for you and said you were a pleasure to teach

Fantastic experience: I had the 5-day intensive course and a couple of lessons following (just as a refresher before my tests - 2nd time pass!). My instructor was Mitch and he was brilliant! Patient, calm and always stayed positive. He eased my nerves right from my first lesson and was so supportive throughout. Couldn’t recommend him more highly. Thank you!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave Mitch Naim 5 stars Katie, he was so pleased for you!
Fantastic experience: Ian Mulley is the best driving instructor I’ve ever had! He makes you feel at ease behind the wheel and is an extremely good teacher. He gives you a lot of confidence and self belief towards achieving your goal which is just as important as learning to drive as well. He will go above and beyond to help you with all different resources and will make things you struggle with memorable in the correct way. He wants to see you do well and he wants to see you pass which are brilliant qualities in an instructor. I’ve been on road independently nearly a year now and my life has changed so much! I can say I could not have done it without him! Thank you so much I’ll be forever grateful!
Thank you for leaving Ian Mulley such a lovely 5 star review Madison and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: Honestly couldnt have asked tor more, my instructor kevin boone really helped me learn quickly and was flexible to work with which really helped. Kev also being and knowing how to work around and teach each student differently for how they prefer to learn and acknowledge it best is what really made me feel confident ty for my test. kevin also managed and worked around my last minute test for me to be able to get it and pass, ultimately pleased and couldn’t ask for more thanks again kev
Thank you for taking the time to leave Kevin Boone 5 stars, we're so pleased you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive!
Fantastic experience: Doing my driving lessons through How2Drive was an incredible experience. Mark is an extremely pleasant instructor to have had. All lessons felt extremely client-centred to what I was going to benefit from the most. His approach to teaching put me at ease even though I am someone who finds the concept of driving quite daunting. I would 100% recommend him as an instructor.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave instructor Mark Horne a five star review, we're so pleased you enjoyed the experience!
Fantastic experience: I had passed my test first time with How 2 Drive and my instructor was Pete Marsden. He was an amazing teacher and he had taught me everything clearly and calmly.

Thank you Pete.
Congratulations on your super first time pass and thank you for taking the time to leave Pete 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: A bunch of thanks to my driving instructor, Rommel del Rosario! I couldn't thank him enough for the support he had given me during our driving lessons.

Fantastic experience: Very pleased to say I passed first time with my instructor Ivanoy Brito, after an intensive course and top up lessons. Ivan remained calm and encouraging despite my anxiety and helped me build a natural confidence on the road. He believed in my ability, even when I couldn’t see it myself and thanks to his professional and easy to learn approach, I’m now looking forward to my freedom on the roads. Thank you Ivan and How 2 Drive for the perfect learner experience!

Fantastic experience: Highly rate this driving school, especially my instructor Barry Robinson who was very flexible around my schedule and any changes and a very understanding instructor who is patient with you as you develop the essential skills to begin driving confidently. Barry allows you to control the lessons once you are confident in driving for the full lesson allowing you to explore your areas for development to build confidence. I passed my test yesterday first time with only 2 minors! Thank you very much Barry for all of your help
Well done Ryan on the super first time pass - great result. Thank you for leaving Barry Robinson 5 stars. It means a lot

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test for the first time with How to Drive and my instructor was Rommel Del Rosario he was really nice and experienced tutor without his help this was not possible.

Thank you for leaving Rommel Del Rosario 5 stars - we are so pleased for your super first time pass
Fantastic experience: I had lessons with Ivanoy from how 2 drive and cannot recommend him enough. I completed 24 hours of lessons via an intensive course and a few top up lessons, and was able to pass my test first time, having started as a complete beginner. Ivanoy was a brilliant teacher, very patient and supportive. He helped me to learn very quickly and the whole process only took just over 2 weeks from my first lesson to passing my test! Thank you so much Ivanoy
Well done Alice on the super pass - a great achievement. Thank you also for taking the time to leave Ivanoy Brito a great review - it means so much

Fantastic experience: "I highly recommend How 2 Drive, especially if you're lucky enough to get Mike Callender as your instructor. As a recent graduate who successfully passed the UK driving practical test, I can confidently say that Mike's instruction was instrumental in my success. Mike Callender is an exceptional driving instructor. His teaching style is clear, patient, and very effective. He has a knack for breaking down complex driving maneuvers into easily understandable steps, which was crucial for building my confidence on the road. What sets Mike apart is his ability to provide perfect guidance tailored to the UK driving test requirements. He's thoroughly familiar with the test standards and ensures his students are well-prepared for every aspect of the examination. Throughout my lessons, Mike created a comfortable learning environment, which helped me stay relaxed and focused. His constructive feedback was always spot-on, helping me improve my skills progressively with each lesson. How 2 Drive's curriculum, combined with Mike's expertise, covers all the necessary skills and knowledge needed to become a safe, confident driver. From mastering basic controls to navigating complex road situations, I felt well-equipped by the end of my course. I wholeheartedly recommend How 2 Drive and especially Mike Callender. With their help, you'll be well on your way to becoming a competent driver and passing your test with flying colors!"
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for instructor Michael Callender, we're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: I’ve Just passed my manual driving test with Sara Jenkins at how2drive. I would recommend Sara to anyone looking for a driving instructor. I was a very anxious learner however, Sara made me feel extremely comfortable in all of my lessons providing excellent feedback and instruction pushing me over the finish line to a first time pass. Thank you for being the best instructor Sara I will never have that much fun parallel parking again.
Many thanks for leaving Sara a 5 star review, we're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive and congratulations on your super pass!

Fantastic experience: I finally passed my driving test, and I couldn’t have done it without Jamie Docker! He was incredibly patient and always made me feel at ease. Jamie explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. His calm and encouraging approach helped boost my confidence, and he always offered helpful tips and feedback on what could be improved. I highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a driving instructor who is patient, professional, and supportive. Thanks, Jamie, for all your help!
Well done Ausrine for the super first time pass - such a great result. Thank you as well for taking the time to leave jamie Docker 5 stars
Fantastic experience: I had Kevin bowkett as my instructor, after having a bad test experience in Lowestoft I came to how2drive and they have been more than accommodating, helping me to overcome nerves and build my confidence driving in the city. Kevin was very flexible fitting lessons around my multiple part time jobs and college studies. I am so grateful to Kevin for having the belief in me and helping me realise my ability as a driver and supporting me to achieve a great pass with only 2 minor faults. I will not hesitate to come back to Kevin to undertake a pass plus course in the coming months, and would highly recommend him as an instructor.
Thank you Darcie for leaving Kevin Bowkett such a lovely review - he was so pleased for you. Well done on the pass and look forward to hearing how you enjoyed the Pass Plus
Fantastic experience: I am pleased to inform you that I have successfully passed the test on my first attempt. I must express my sincere gratitude for your invaluable lessons, which have been instrumental in my success. Thank you very much, to my instructor, (rommel del rosario )for your exceptional teaching and guidance.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Rommel a 5 star review and congratulations on your super first time pass!
Fantastic experience: I very highly recommend Tim Elley as a driving instructor for the following reasons: •He is very kind and calm and even when I made a mistake he never got angry or made me feel stupid for not getting it right. We would just discuss what had happened and what I could do to fix it which really helped me correct bad habits and better understand why I needed to be doing certain things. •I always felt very safe and comfortable in the car with Tim and I knew that if/when he needed to step in he could. •He truly helped me with my confidence on the road by always being supportive, encouraging, and caring. •He is very knowledgeable and experienced, and always had the answers to any questions I could think of. •He would make sure that any parts of my driving that I had less confidence in were targeted, and remedied so that I had confidence in every part of my driving which really helped me pass my test. I’m truly grateful to Tim for all of his help and encouragement that allowed me to pass my driving test and I cannot recommend him enough.
Thank you for taking the time to leave instructor Tim Elley such a lovely, 5 star review and congratulations on your super pass!
Fantastic experience: Great instructor, very friendly and had lots of patience. He was very good at explaining things step by step. Passed first time thanks to Tim Elley.
Well done on the first time pass - great achievement. Thank you for leaving Tim Elley 5 stars - it means a lot
Fantastic experience: Passed for an auto license at the end of August having sat in the driver's seat for the first time in February. I didn't have a huge amount time or money to be spending on lessons, but my instructor Adam Manista made every lesson engaging, fun and a relaxing environment to learn in. I'm not sure exactly how many hours I did, but I think it was probably around 30-35 hours of lessons with Adam, and a bit longer in personal practice with my parents. I feel confident with driving and am looking forward to doing it daily when I eventually get a car. Highly recommend Adam to any new drivers
Well done Robbie on the super pass - Adam Manista wwas so pleased for you. Keep safe on the road
Fantastic experience: I cannot fault my instructor Kevin B. He was patient, helpful and calm throughout. As a slightly older, slightly nervous learner I had anticipated to struggle much more than I did. I passed first time with Kevin. He is personable and adaptable and I highly recommend. My overall experience was very good!
Many thanks for leaving Kevin Bowkett a five star review, congratulations on your super first time pass!
Fantastic experience: Was taught by Jeremy Hindley he was very kind and patient with me and always made me feel welcome and confident. He always kept me safe and i would 100% recommend him for any learner drivers!
Well done Rebecca on the super pass this morning - enjoy the freedom on the roads. Thank you too for leaving Jerry Hindley 5 stars
Fantastic experience: I want to thank Ian from How 2 drive, for being such an incredible support to N during her driving lessons. He was the perfect balance of seriousness and humour, knowing just when to keep things on track and when to crack a joke to lighten the mood. N couldn't have done it without him guiding her every step of the way. And let’s be honest, the new car definitely didn’t hurt—nothing like an electric car to make those lessons a bit more enjoyable! Your patience and encouragement really helped N build the confidence she needed and we can’t thank you enough for helping her pass her test!
Thank you Marie for leaving Ian Mulley such a great review - we were so happy for N super pass
Fantastic experience: Passed my driving test today, all thanks to my instructor Gareth Bowkett. He is patient, calm and explains everything clearly. Always on time and tailor his lessons to suit my learning pace making each session productive. Excellent instructor, highly recommended.
Thank you Anusha for leaving Gareth 5 stars- he was so happy for you. Well done on a fantastic pass
Fantastic experience: My driving instructor Rommel Del Rosario is really helpful and supportive instructor. It was due to him only I passed in my First Attempt. He is really 5 Start instructor.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Rommel Del Rosario 5 stars - he was really pleased for your pass. Keep driving safe
Fantastic experience: I’ve just passed my manual driving test, first time! My amazing driving instructor was Jamie Docker, he made me feel comfortable and supported from the start. His lessons were well structured, with set goals, feedback and how to improve, which we would then practice. He gave good advice for resources to help me revise for lessons and for my theory test. He was always very patient, up-front, non-judgemental, and made me laugh. He checked in with me before starting each lesson, to see how I was feeling, and he was understanding when I had to step away for a few weeks, due to my mental health. He also made sure I was confident and felt ready for my practical test. I always felt safe driving with him, and I would highly recommend Jamie Docker to anyone wanting to learn to drive.
Well done Eve on the super first time pass - a great achievement. Thank you for taking the time to leave Jamie Docker 5 stars
Fantastic experience: Great instructor, really prepared me for my driving test. Very professional in all aspects of the driving lessons. I had a wonderful instructor Adrian. Really greatful to be able to pass my test on the first attempt with 0 mistake.
Well done Deo - what an amazing ZERO fault pass! Thank you for leaving Adrian Stimpson a 5 star review - it is really appreciated
Fantastic experience: jamie was the most lovely instructor, he was patient and very supportive and helped in a way that was constructive but polite and was one of the best instructors, i would recommend him and this company to anybody and everybody!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave Jamie Docker a five star review, congratulations on your super pass!
Negative experience: I would have loved to of shared the same experiences as everyone else but sadly I did not. I’m overall just really disappointed in the treatment I got from this company as I thought it would be good but I frankly found them rude and unprofessional. I didn’t mind my driving instructor being between 5 and 15 minutes late for every lesson or eating on the job, privately messaging me on WhatsApp instead of the driving app, the comment of whether it being okay to touch my arm and jokingly said as it’s 2024 and we have to ask these things or even going behind the hedge for a wee. But what I did mind was him charging me for a full lessons when he finished the lessons and early then questioning my validity when I brought it up to him. Furthermore, I found constant disorganisation from my driving instructor infuriating which is what lead me to stop continuing with this company. The late turn ups, the last minute cancellations, charging me for lessons when I did not do because he was 45 + minutes late or simply booking them on the wrong day and the complete disregard that I have other things in my life aside from driving lessons and arguing with me claiming I should tell him what else I’m doing in my life. But I what I absolutely detested was the complete unprofessionalism when I wanted the money back for my unused hours and he refusing to giving the full money back because he claimed I cancelled a lesson but couldn’t actually tell me when that was (I personally think he was charging me for the final lesson I cancelled and he marked down as delivered because he was going to be 45+ minutes late). Then when trying to complain to customer service the biased mindset Sam had and the attitude that I was wasting her time ( in which I completely understand is my perspective of the situation) I just couldn’t believe I didn’t even get an apology from either of them and having to fight them both for my full money back. When I did eventually get my money back apparently it was a gesture of good will they gave it to me? I did question how it was a gesture of good will when I was being charged for a lesson he did not deliver but got ignored. I would be very very wary of this company as they will try and swindle you and take advantage of you if you aren’t completely on top of it. Just very very rude and unprofessional from both the driving instructor and customer car team.
Sorry we could not make it an experience you were happy with
Fantastic experience: I would like to say a big thank you to How 2 drive Norwich but more importantly to Ivanoy for helping me pass my driving test. I had three others driving instructors and probably over 80 hours of driving lessons and a very low confidence in my driving skills before driving with Ivanoy. Within a week of driving with him, thanks to his patience and his ability to explain difficult concepts and constant rigour, he transformed me into a skilled and confident driver to the point I never thought I'll ever be. I highly recommend Ivanoy and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to learn with him.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Ivan Brito a five star review Julie, we're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your experience with How 2 Drive.
