Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Sam to anyone learning to drive. He always makes sure that your lessons are comfortable but still focuses on what you struggle with. I couldn't have passed without him. Thankyou Sam!

Lauren 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah was a wonderful intructor. She was very understanding about the nerves I felt when driving and really helped me to recover my confidence after some previous intructors. Sarah was really conscious of the fact that I worked full-time and was flexible when planning lessons, as well as being reliable on the day. Sarah was amazing at pacing the lessons to build confidence and stretch my skills, and it was great going into the test knowing that I was prepared. I passed first time with Sarah and I have already recommended her to my best friend-I would say the same to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I was really struggling to get past my driving test but all it took was to get some extra lessons with Sarah and I was able to get over the line recently and it was all the more worth doing, truly one of the greatest feelings ever passing my test and I owe it all to check mirrors and Sarah's amazing guidance!

Fantastic experience: Rob is a very good instructor, he is friendly, honest and always gives you his professional advice. After going through 2 other instructors, I can confidently say Rob is the best. He genuinely cares about his students which enabled me to pass the test first time while with Rob. Every penny is worth it and I would recommend Rob and Checkmirrors Driving School. I never felt pushed or pressured, Rob knew exactly how many lessons I needed. Thank you so much Rob, looking forward to driving myself to work now. No more bike in bad weather.

Fantastic experience: My driving instructor from check mirrors was Sam and I would definitely recommend. He made learning to drive stress free and fun. All the lessons were centred around what you need and everything felt very personalised. It made me more confident on the roads and lead to me passing my test in a couple months. Can’t recommend more.

Periyasamy Aks 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Its been an absolute pleasure learning from Kirsty-checkmirrors. She took me in when a previous instructor had abandoned me couple of months before my test. She quickly realized i was not even close to test ready , what followed was the best coaching ive had targetting all my driving weak areas, she corrected so many issues which were overlooked by my previous instructor and i hadnt realized i was making. She was very patient and made sure i was trained well in the short time we had. On my test day , i knew that i was best prepared with her guidance so far and passed with flying colours on my first attempt as well. Thank you Kirsty and Checkmirrors - you were life savers and can’t recommend anyone better !!!

Fantastic experience: I had Ryan as my instructor and i seriously cannot recommend him enough. Before I started lessons with him I really hated driving however Ryan made it fun and stress free. He is one of the most caring and understanding instructors you will ever have! He caters the lesson to you and if you don’t understand something he will always try his hardest to explain it to you. I genuinely cannot recommend him enough! If you want to book manual car lessons definitely ask for Ryan!

Fantastic experience: I am thrilled to share my experience with Ryan from Check Mirrors.Thanks to their exceptional guidance, I successfully passed my driving test, in march , sorry for the delayed feedback. From the very first lesson, Ryan made me feel at ease with their patient and encouraging teaching style. They have a remarkable ability to explain complex maneuvers and road rules in a way that is easy to understand and remember. Each session was well-structured, focusing on building my confidence and improving my driving skills progressively.

Temeoweikedi Kemetimiware 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently had the pleasure of taking a one-time driving mock test with Mr. Rob, and I can't recommend him enough! After my initial instructor left me in the lurch at the last minute, Rob stepped in and truly went above and beyond by accommodating me into his busy schedule. During our session, Rob was not only kind and professional but also incredibly insightful. He showed me numerous hidden tricks and crucial things to watch out for on the road, which were instrumental in helping me polish my driving skills. His detailed feedback helped me understand exactly where I needed to make improvements, and his guidance was clearly tailored to my personal driving style and needs. Thanks to Rob's expert coaching, I passed my practical driving test on the first try! His dedication and ability to impart confidence and knowledge are what set him apart. For anyone looking for a driving instructor who truly cares about their students' success, Mr. Rob is your guy. Thank you so much, Rob, for not just being an excellent instructor, but a genuinely great person. Keep being amazing!

JACK HARDY 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah has been amazing. We really struggled to find a driving instructor for Tom, a lot of the time they were full or just didn't get back to me. I nearly gave up hope until i saw a Check Mirrors review on Facebook.Sarah responded no bother and was very helpful given Tom's limited availability.Sarah was always on time, never let us down. Was flexible in terms of arranging a test date, we even brought it forward thanks to you.Tom genuinely looked forward to every lesson and sounds like you both had fun. You made Tom feel at ease and his confidence grew every week. Would 100% recommend your company. Thanks again xx

Fantastic experience: I have had such an amazing time with the Check Mirrors team. Rob has been such a great instructor, I highly would recommend him to anyone wanting to start driving. He’s professional but goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. He ensures that you stay on progress by consistently updating the Check Mirrors checklist, which is great as you are aware of the stage that you are at with your driving. Overall great experience.

Atanas Petrov 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you to the team of Check Mirrors for being so accommodating and helpful with my driving lessons! Working full time and having a different availability week by week did not stop my driving instructor Adam from finding the time and working around my schedule. I got the chance to meet other driving instructor who also were very supportive and helpful. I managed to pass within 5 months of starting my first ever lesson!

David Benson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We cannot thank Sarah enough for offering us some ad hoc lesson availability for our son who had an imminent test date booked in but we still had no driving instructor. She went out of her way to offer her time, kept us constantly updated and was always reliable and gave so much advice and support to us him and us as parents with what to work on when taking him out for driving practice. Her expertise and calm nature meant he could get as much as possible out of the time with Sarah and am pleased to say that he passed first time today. He is one very happy teenager and mum is relieved that her taxi days are over! You're an absolute star Sarah.

Fantastic experience: Sarah is simply one in a million. She has helped me with a tricky situation where I felt my son was not getting the right advice from his instructor. She gave so much support, contacting me in the evenings and at a weekend with advice and then assessed my son- suggesting he go straight for his test! I am recommending her to everyone I know who is looking for a driving instructor. I wish I had found her earlier!

Mick Wit 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah is an amazing teacher and her car is a pleasure to drive and learn in! I had an instructor from another company before, and it was really stressful back then. When I moved to checkmirrors and started my lessons with Sarah it all clicked straight away, I was finally properly learning, not stressing out. She was always supportive, we had nice chats together, and thanks to her I passed, yay! Thank you, Sarah!

Sharon Sanders 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I passed first time in York after taking lessons with Rob Kedge for around 2 months. I would highly recommend Rob. He was a great instructor, especially as I was extremely nervous and had avoided driving for years. Rob made me feel really comfortable and confident with driving and I can’t thank him enough!

Fantastic experience: Sarah is honestly one of the best driving instructors around. She is so patient and is such a lovely person to get along with and really puts you at ease within minutes. Sarah has great communication and really tries to accomodate to whatever you need. Sarah pushes you to achieve more whilst never making you uncomfortable. Sarah actively works with you to understand what you want to achieve from each lesson and really tailors each lesson to make sure you're 100% confident in each topic. Would 100000% recommond and have recommeded to many friends and family!

Fantastic experience: If there's one thing I've learnt amongst the many lessons with Sarah, it is to just be forward thinking. She had made every lesson so simple and easy to take in. I cannot thank her enough for being endlessly patient with me throughout my time in the car with her. Couldnt recommend her higher. If youre wanting to pass.... get a spot with Check mirrors! Helped me to ace a first time pass. Nothing but love.

Fantastic experience: Hi, I just passed my first time driving test with zero fault today in York. CheckMirrors was a highly recommended school for everyone who wish take a driving lesson. Rob, who is my instructor, he is a fabulous and excellent instructor I ever have. He is responsible and helpful throughout the lesson in helping you understand and be confidence before moving to the next lesson. He always deliver positive vibes to build up me confidence and reduce my anxiety, as once you get nervous it is easily to make mistake. Truly recommend CheckMirrrors and thank you Rob for all your effort specially the 1hour quick recap we have before the exam. Thanks again Rob!
