Fantastic experience: Passed my test yesterday after spending a few months driving with Zak’s driving school! I had been doing lessons with a previous instructor and felt I wasn’t getting anywhere so I then decided to go with Zak instead which I’m so glad I did. He made me feel at ease and he helped me so much get test ready I honestly couldn’t have done it without him. He was able to fit me in school hours too so that helped me massively due to childcare issues however I know he does evening lessons too for people who are busy through the day. Would recommend.

Would deffo recommend to anyone searching for an instructor who will be calm, patient and supportive.

Fantastic experience: Zak is an amazing, calm and collective instructor. I suffered with a lot of driving anxiety especially after failing 5 times, however Zak never doubted me once and he believed in me. His teaching is immaculate to the point where he drilled in exactly what i have to do when approaching a junction/roundabout ect, he taught me so well i can repeat it word for word. My lessons were always enjoyable and to be honest a time to off load. He is not just a great examiner but a great person who has compassion for his students, he is reliable and always on time and extremely flexible, i could not recommend him enough especially if you suffer with anxiety related to driving.

Fantastic experience: A very calm and collected instructor, who always puts you at ease and brings out the best in people. I've studied under someone else before I met Zak but on the 1st day I knew that he was the one I wanted to study under. I've always had the fear of driving as carelessness puts others at risk as well but that all went away with Zak. I wasn't the best at driving, but with Zak I very quickly became more than adept at driving. With simple techniques that work every time and a positive yet honest attitude, it's always a pleasure to learn. Be sure that he expects the best out of you and always manages to bring it out. He's honesty is exemplary, if he thinks you need to take more lessons he will say it but if you ask for more lessons than you need he will say it to you straight. He's helped me in more than just my driving and I can sincerely say that I consider him a very dependable friend. I would definitely recommend him to others.
Thankyou for your kind words. It was a pleasure teaching you. Any advice in the future i am only a phone call away.
