Fantastic experience: Simon was fantastic, he really helped me calm down before my test. My clutch control was really quite poor before Simon but he taught me how to manage it in a simple way. After that everything fell into place and I passed first time!

Fantastic experience: I've been learning on-and-off with Simon for the last two years, and when I finally got my test booked we spent 5 weeks doing lots of practice and exam preparation. When it came to my test, I felt very prepared, and his day-of-test lesson was perfect. I passed first time, in Sevenoaks. Simon's teaching is very good, with both clear instructions and progression/teaching tailored to your needs. My neighbourhood has very tight parking, and so he taught me not only the maneuver I would be tested on but also how to park in tight spaces. In addition to being a great teacher, Simon is also a very genuine bloke. We always had a great time on lessons - the conversation was free flowing, and put me at ease. His prices were very reasonable, he was always quick to respond, and always punctual. I couldn't recommend him more.

Fantastic experience: Simon is a great driving instructor! He is friendly and very easy to get along with. The lessons are always calm and relaxed which really helps when your an anxious learner like myself! He allows you to go at your own pace but will also give you that extra push when needed. I passed 1st time which I never thought I would be able to achieve due to nerves. Simon breaks everything down and adapts he's way of teaching to however you learn best. He is so patient which definitely came in handy on some of my lessons! He teaches you how to drive safely and doesnt just purely focus on 'passing' the test. Thankyou for all your help and support Simon!

Shanay Steele 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Simon is genuinely the best driving instructor, my only regret was not starting my learning journey with him. He teaches you to be a excellent, safe driver that can drive anywhere, rather than just teaching you to pass, which is way better long term. He does exceptionally well at adjusting his teaching styles to make sure you get the most out of your lessons. I had times where I could push myself and he fed off of that and provided the challenges I needed to go a step further. However, when I had times when I was more nervous/anxious he focused on lightening the mood through jokes along the journey, building up my confidence and affirming what I was doing well, which helped me through my negative mind talk. I passed first time with 4 minors thanks to Simon and I would recommend him to everyone. If he could get a nervous/anxiety prone person to actually drive a manual car, pass and enjoy driving, he can definitely help anyone. Thank you for teaching me how to drive and to challenge my nerves/negative thoughts! that's a pass for my mum and me on your books!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend Simon enough, I had 2 previous driving instructors before covid and had little confidence to start driving again. Simon was flexible and always managed to get lessons booked in, he honestly couldn’t do enough for me. It’s so refreshing to meet a driving instructor that genuinely cares and goes out of his way to help. He is a great laugh, so easy to get along with and just an all round brilliant instructor. I won’t stop singing his praises! Thank you Simon for getting me passed after what felt an eternity waiting!

Matthew Lewis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nothing but good things to say about learning with Simon. I was scheduled for a 4-day intensive driving course at 6 hours a day having never driven before. This isn't advised as Simon made clear when I first sat in the car - "It's gonna be tight." His approach over the next few days was completely bespoke to my situation and needs. If I picked up a skill quickly we'd move on and just pop back to refresh it periodically. If I struggled with a skill he'd adapt the day's agenda to really drill and embed it. Simon's got a great knack for nagging you on your bad habits and making you want to improve for the sake of being a good driver, rather than just passing your test. By the time I sat my test it felt like second nature. I was automatically checking myself on bad habits, driving properly with flow. Passed first time with four minors. Above all, Simon's a lovely guy and great to chat with. Pick a topic and he'll have something to say about it. This makes the intense days in the car truly enjoyable.

I can’t thank him enough and wish him a very good luck.

Fantastic experience: I thoroughly enjoyed my time learning to drive with Simon. He is very understanding towards the new driver, and a wonderful teacher. I would recommend him to anyone who feels overwhelmed by the whole driving experience. A model driving instructor. I would like to highlight in particular the flexibility offered: during the school holidays we had intensive lessons every few days, and during term time I had one every couple of weeks. This way I managed to juggle my studies with driving lessons, which was much appreciated.

Fantastic experience: Passed my test 1st time today (whilst 34 weeks pregnant...) had it originally booked for July but Simon asked me to do a mock test and we decided I wasn't ready. Throughout all my lessons he pushed me out of my comfort zone and made sure I was safe enough driving with my 2 sons in the car. He makes sure your above driving test standard before you even do your test so I passed with only 3 driver faults. Didn't expect to pass let alone with that little faults. Thank you Simon xx

maika m 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have just passed first time after an 18hr intensive course with Simon. He helped me improve so much about my driving in such a short time. A week ago I never would have imagined it possible to learn so much in just a week, or that I would already be passing! Every lesson was really fun and enjoyable, I learned something new everyday, and I will definitely miss our chats too. I really couldn’t have gotten this pass without him, he always made sure to build my confidence back up after any mistakes in the lessons so I can do better next time, and he even went beyond just basic lessons to let me experience driving outside of London, so I can drive more confidently anywhere after the test! ☺️ Thank you again for everything, and especially for being the only person to manage to finally teach me how to bay park! I really recommend taking lessons with Simon if you have the opportunity to!

Fantastic experience: I recently passed my driving test first time after having Simon as my instructor. Whether this is your first time trying or you’ve had a few failed attempts getting started, Simon is the man. I had initially struggled to get to grips with everything but Simon’s approach of teaching me as an individual allowed me to overcome the hurdles I was facing and give me the confidence I needed to progress. From very early on he was able to tell me exactly where and why I struggled and how I could improve. His unique insights alongside his patience made all the difference for me as a learner and made our lessons enjoyable and productive. I doubt I would have been able to progress the way I did without his guidance. Thank you, Simon.

Fantastic experience: I booked through an intensive course, and Simon was my instructor during this course. I could not have asked for a better person to help me improve driving and learn manoeuvres, Simon walked me through every step slowly ensuring I had the ability to pass my driving test first time. Anything I was unsure on Simon would cover again, always clear and in depth to ensure I knew what I was doing and fully understand. Not only was Simon an amazing driving instructor he was also a great person and we always had a laugh behind the wheel with Simon - and learned stuff from him outside of driving! If you are looking at booking with Simon, I would 100% recommend Simon again and again - he is amazing. Just remember, do what Simon says!

Malo Dan 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I approached Simon Jenner in April this year after 13 hours of driving lessons with my former instructor spanning July to December last year; I had booked an April test date long before our separation. I had driven in Africa for 15 years before legitimately relocating to the UK 14 years ago; I therefore had not driven for 13 years before July last year. I drove with Simon for only six hours, but the experience felt like 50 hours! Below is a summary of the experience: • My driving was recorded via webcam and footage shown to me by way of feedback • His organisational ability is reflected in his app, which has incredible resources such as the Gillingham test areas and the various aspects of the actual test itself [show me tell me questions, reverse bay parking, meeting traffic, push pull driving, etc.] • He sends you SMS feedback later, on aspects of your driving that you need to work on [after each lesson] • He sends a guide for the day of your driving test, etc. The hours spent driving with Simon and the unbelievable resources he sent my way were very helpful and contributed significantly to the positive outcome of my test. Simon is direct, frank but respectful – never talked down to me for once. I am confident to recommend Simon Says Driving School to anyone whose aim goes beyond just passing the test but becoming a safe UK driver.

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Simon as a driving instructor enough! Extremely accommodating and always thinking about how to get the best out of your driving. Learned a lot in the time we spent together, to the point where the test ended up being easy in comparison. We would always diagnose problems together and fix them - and were able to have a laugh about it too.

Fantastic experience: Passed first time after an intensive course with Simon. No matter what mistake I made he would correct it, explain to me what to do next time and have me try again. This resulted in me making rapid progress in my driving and overcoming the problems I was having. I would recommend Simon Says to anyone looking to learn how to drive or learn how to do something they are not confident in.

Fantastic experience: Simon is a fantastic driving instructor and after booking my test for July in Gillingham (I live in Maidstone) Simon did some moving around on tests in his own time for free and got me a test at Maidstone two weeks later 08/03/2022 and I passed. We always had very informative lessons with loads of practice. And Simon just made you at ease and comfortable and always believe in his students ability to not just pass the driving test but to be a safe driver all round and in a life of driving. I will always recommend Simon to future learners, family and friends. Thank you for everything.

Fantastic experience: Had many lessons years ago but was unable to pass my theory test and I also lacked confidence in my driving. Simon came highly recommended to me by a friend so I thought I would give it one more go. I am so glad I did, Simon is the most knowledgable, calming and patient instructor. I passed my theory and my practical and I cannot thank Simon enough for supporting me to get where I am.

Fantastic experience: Simon is an incredible driving instructor. I have thoroughly enjoyed my intensive course and learning how to drive. Not only did he teach me to pass my test, but I also feel prepared to now drive independently and safely out on the road. Couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you Simon!!

Fantastic experience: Teaches you in a fun yet professional way, in which I feel like me and Simon joked around quite a lot and talked about a lot of things but he also always made sure I was driving correctly and would point out if I made a mistake somewhere and would always be ready to take control of the vehicle if he needed too. He's main focus is different to other companies like Red or A team in the fact that he's more focused on making sure you are actually good at driving anywhere not just a good enough driver to be able to pass the test. Even the test examiner said when she sees Simon she can expect a good people proving that other people also respect him as a instructor. So I'd like to thank Simon for being a great teacher and for making driving fun.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved my intensive lessons with Simon. He made the experience enjoyable and understood how I learnt best. I was worried about the lessons being too long but they were broken up really well. He put a lot of confidence in me and was calm when I panicked which helped me progress and feel confident in myself. I loved doing the lessons over an intensive period and it all paid off as I passed first time!

Fantastic experience: Simon is a very good driving teacher You will learn alot from simons driving skills as I passed first time only having 18 hours of driving lessons. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone who would like to learn how to drive. He is honest and straight to the point, you spend most of your lessons driving not just sitting at the side of the road parked up.

Fantastic experience: Was recommended Simon as a driving instructor from a friend after having a couple bad instructors in the past! I couldn't be happier that he was recommended! Simon is a brilliant driving instructor! My first lesson he assessed my abilities and gave me what he believed to be his opinion on how many lessons I needed and his observations were completely accurate as I passed today within the amount of lessons he said. Simon is very knowledgable and was able to teach me in a way that helped me and that I could understand. All of my lessons were very comfortable and we had a laugh when recapping how the lesson had gone. His learners car is always clean and tidy and was lovely to drive. I could not recommend Simon enough and anyone I know who needs lessons I have already told not to bother with anyone else and to just contact Simon.

Fantastic experience: Simon is an incredible driving teacher with the ability to gage his students to their individual needs and learning methods. With Simons guidance and continuous support I was able to pass 1st time. Lessons were fun and engaging and even though sometimes I felt anxious, Simon always made me feel comfortable in the driving seat. A highly recommended driving instructor.

Fantastic experience: It feels like there is not enough stars for Simon because I feel like I can’t recommend you enough to friends and family. I sometimes want to split you in pieces to be able to give more people lessons. I have used Simon from day one only one instructor throughout my learning and I know he’s what I needed to help me pass 1st time . He made me feel safe to drive not just for the test but for real life. Never sat behind the wheels?? Simon Says is the answer. Thank you Simon am really going to miss my lessons and thank you for helping me pass first time.

Fantastic experience: Simon, the best instructor I’ve ever had. From the day we met, he said to me that he’s gonna teach me to drive for life and not just the test. I loved that and now that I’ve passed (first time too ☺️) I can really begin to understand what he meant and I appreciate all the lessons we had. Never made me feel under pressure, always switched things up to suit me, always helping me keep my nerves under 10 and just realistic with me from the get go. The skills I learned with Simon I’ll keep for life and recommend him to EVERYONE I know who needs help getting their license. After my parents saw what I learned with Simon, they said “I’ve seen my money’s worth, deffo value for money and I’ll be recommending him too. Simon say.. fantastic”Thank you Simon for helping me achieve my goal of passing my test first time just days before my birthday too.

Fantastic experience: I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon as a driving instructor. Not only did he teach me the skills to drive but he helped me manage my nerves on my test day and feel competent to be a safe driver when i'm out on my own. As a nervous student it's been an emotional journey, but Simon kept me laughing, kept me going when I made mistakes and all with the patience of a saint!! So thanks Simon. Susie
