Fantastic experience: Pete has been amazing with taking my son under his wing to teach him how to drive. ....Rewind over 25 years ago........I met Pete, he was my driving instructor too (we didnt have Google reviews back then so this review is a long time coming but very well deserved!!). Even back then his patience, his willingness to listen and his skills to teach went above and beyond. He gave me the confidence and knowledge to help me pass my driving test first time over 25 years ago and be the very capable driver i am today. A few months ago we contacted Pete to start teaching my son and through his guidance and expertise he gained the confidence and knowledge in order to also pass his driving test first time and with a faultless drive! He is an amazing driving instructor and really goes into detail and his knowledge is second to none. I would recommend him without hesitation and hope that he can also teach my other children too! Keep up the amazing work - Wishing you all the best! Kindest regards, Andy (and Leon)
