Given that prices can vary widely between each driving school in Wrexham. The amount of lessons needed can vary per person - and instructor!
You see so many driving schools in the Wrexham area offering lessons at cheap rates, you have got to ask yourself why!
To me it is about the cost-per-pass, not the cost-per-lesson.
I am confident I will not be beaten on price.
My aim is to get you trained to a very high standard of driving as quickly as possible - so you recommend me to others

You did amazing. Well done.
Fantastic experience: Graham has been a quality instructor! From day one he makes you feel at ease and safe in the car. He explains things thoroughly and in a way that helps you remember key information. He pushed me always to do the very best I could, which filled me with confidence. Graham is superbly trustworthy and always arrives on time for lessons and doesn’t muck you about with bookings at all. Every lesson he would provide targeted advice regarding the driving errors I would make. He is very progress driven and each lesson he builds on the previous lesson and introduces new things.He has the patience of a saint! Could not recommend Graham enough!
Thanks for the kind words Morgan. You totally deserved your licence and have been a star. I’ll see you on the road.

Thanks for that they were both a pleasure to teach and totally deserved it.
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend GEARS enough! I have had a number of driving Instructors in the past and not once have I felt confident enough to drive with my sister in the car and also with my children! He was honest and told me when I needed to focus but also there for a laugh and I think that’s how a instructor should be! I’m so proud of myself thank you so much GEARS for your help and pushing me to pass!!
You totally deserved it. Well done.
Fantastic experience: Passed first time today with only a couple of driving faults all thanks to Graham. Was a really nervous driver to start, couldn’t recommend him enough! Thanks Graham!
You did absolutely amazing, just believe in yourself. Well done
Fantastic experience: Was feeling very nervous to start with, Graham helped gain my confidence , professional, understanding and made learning to drive fun rather than a chore
Great to hear. Thanks Charlie.
Negative experience: Was learning to drive with this company and ended things due to feeling uncomfortable. The instructor would go on his phone whilst I was in control of the car, talk to his wife on speaker phone about what they would do at the weekend and what they would be having for tea. Didn’t receive good advice from him, felt like he was just in it for the money. Wouldn’t recommend this service if you actually want to learn to drive. I know more about his personal life than I do about driving
Thanks for at least taking the time to write a review, albeit a false one, this person has come for lessons with me after going with several other instructors previously, she did not have a good word to say about them either. After explaining me not wanting to take her to test and advised to put it to another date as she was clearly not ready. She decided to stop having lessons via text and then, well you can figure out the rest. Best of luck for the future. Apologies for the one emergency hands free phone call.
Fantastic experience: Excellent, and highly recommended , a 1st time pass yesterday for my son due to Graham’s tuition. Many thanks Graham, (he’s driven 115 miles today, then came home loaded up the car with his tent and disappeared again!) Oh to be young again eh….
He was an absolute pleasure to teach.

Well done Lou
Fantastic experience: Great instructor. Really helpful with my confidence and we got along well. Definitely had a good level of freedom, didn't yank my controls for the smallest mistake like previous instructors I had been with. Lessons were well planned and notifications being sent the night before were very useful. Also had some interesting routes (e.g. Horseshoe Pass) rather than just teaching to the test like others.

Availability for same day lesson, very friendly easy going and chatty instructor. Felt very comfortable and at ease. Would definitely recommend GEARS for anyone starting to learn to drive or anyone who would like a refresher session! Thanks very much!!! HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED!!
Really great driving. Was nice to see you confidence growing
Fantastic experience: Brilliant teacher, easy to get along with, I couldn't have passed first time with no faults without him. Thank you!
Awesome driving. Can’t get better than what you achieved
Fantastic experience: Friendly reliable service would highly recommend
Well done sir
Fantastic experience: Graham is a very good instructor. He works hard to instill confidence when driving and has a focus on practical experience. He is quick to address issues and offers continual re-enforcement of good practices. I have found that he uses music to good affect as well. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Thanks for the kind review Matthew. You did fantastic
Fantastic experience: After passing my test a few years ago I booked two refresher lessons with GEARS. Graham was brilliant - the lessons were non-stop driving (unlike so many lessons with teachers I've had the the past), pitched at the perfect level, and fun. Graham really helped me to get my confidence back, and I'd definitely recommend him as an instructor.
It was a pleasure and you made a vast improvement so quickly. Well done.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend using Gears, Grahams a brilliant teacher with a great style of teaching
Thanks for the review. You’ve been a star.
Fantastic experience: Graham is an excellent instructor. The lessons are fun and intuitive. I was recommended him by two friends who have passed with him previously. I would throughly recommend him to anyone wishing to learn to drive
Thanks you lemon. Lol
Fantastic experience: Top quality driving instructor, really helpful and very easy to get along with.
Well done Ellis.
Fantastic experience: I've had Graham since March, I couldn't imagine a better driving instructor! He's always been a laugh even at the toughest lessons! He's great to get along with and great at calming my nerves, I enjoyed every lesson with him. I would definitely recommend him, 10/10 driving instructor, passed first time with 3 minors.
What a blast well done Abs
Fantastic experience: Graham fully prepares you for driving after you pass, not just for the test. I would highly recommend him.
Great driving Tom
Fantastic experience: Graham made learning to drive a fun and relaxed experience. I highly recommend him for anyone who is feeling nervous about learning to drive.
All the best Danny
Fantastic experience: Nice and friendly bloke, im learning very fast off him, i would highly recommend!!
Really well done sir.
Negative experience: Graham has been teaching me to drive since August and after a number of lessons he agreed to me booking a test date, which I did and conferred with him a suitable date. A week before my test following my lesson Graham refused to take me for my test telling me I had bad habits and that he didn't think I was ready. I was hoping to pass as I was going to local university, although I may not of passed, it would of been a great help to me going to university and now I have to rely on my parents to take me and pick me up. On a previous lesson I was asked to parallel park where I noticed children behind the parked car, so was unable to reverse. He prompted me again to reverse and when I told him the reason I couldn't he became annoyed and told me to drive on. Booking lessons was problematic and pick up places and lesson times were changed on various occasions to suit him. My experiences with GEARS Driving School has been very disappointing and is very poor business practice when he is in the business of teaching people to drive. One to avoid!
I am very sorry that you feel this way as I strive to give every pupil a positive experience. I understand your frustration at the suggestion that the driving test was too soon, however, I feel, as an experienced instructor, that it is far more beneficial and safer to postpone the test and take it when ready, as opposed to "being lucky on the day" This decision involves both the pupil and myself, the instructor, and therefore would only be made with both parties in mind. I work very hard to give my pupils a relaxed, fun environment in which to learn, and it is my aim to get you driving safely and feel confident behind the wheel - for your own benefit as well as other road users. Only once this criteria is met do I feel it is time for the test. Once again I am sorry that you are dissatisfied with your experience. Thank you for your feedback.
Fantastic experience: Graham is a brilliant driving instructor, he makes the lessons fun and keeps you calm. He was recommended to me by 2 friends who passed first time. I'd recommend him to anyone who's looking for an enjoyable driving experience.
Awesome Jess
Fantastic experience: really lovely driving instructor, great for nervous drivers! thanks
Thanks Rosanna
Fantastic experience: Graham is utterly amazing, he helps to make you feel comfortable and relaxed, all while giving you the support and guidance you need to learn how to drive at your own pace, and safely. His patience and understanding is other worldly! Of all my friends who learnt to drive with him, I heard only excellent reviews and I would definitely and honestly recommend him to anyone. He is great :)
Well done Lydia
Fantastic experience: Graham is an excellent driving instructor who not only taught me to drive but also to be safe doing so. With constant encouragement and great insights to sort out any problems, Graham really is a great instructor. You will also have a lot of fun and laughs with Graham. Highly recommended.
Well done Adam
