Larissa Driving School

Fantastic experience: I’ve just passed first time with Larrissa !!! Not only did she teach me how to drive to pass for my test but taught me how to drive as an actual driver. I feel truly blessed that I found Larrissa driving school !! She’s amazing!! If you look for a driving instructor go with Larrissa 1000 % you would not regret it ! You will learn so much and how to be confident and most importantly how to be a safe driver on the road !! Larrissa is so kind and understanding if you are struggling with something she would ensure that you understand fully !! She is also so fun to chat with you would never get bored with her like I said if you are looking for an instructor I insist go with Larrissa driving school !!!

Fantastic experience: Larissa’s driving lessons were a game changer! From day one, she got me driving with confidence—and even enjoying it! She made tricky maneuvers like parallel parking simple and stress-free. Her lessons were fun, relaxed, and super effective. Thanks to her, I passed on my first try! If you’re looking for a great instructor, Larissa is the one.

Fantastic experience: I’ve just passed first time in London with Larissa! She not only taught me drive—but, more importantly—taught me to be a safe, confident driver. (For context, I’m in my late 20s and have been struggling to learn how to drive for the past 3 years. I failed my practical test twice in a different part of the UK. I started with Larissa 6 months ago with over 100 driving hours. I was a hesitant driver with more than a few bad and beginner habits.) We spent 99% of the time on the road, learning by doing and spending very little time in the books. I couldn’t be happier with her teaching style! We throughly went through all aspects of driving and I quickly shed those bad habits. She was so patient with me, even when I needed to repeat some bits over and over. Larissa is so kind and so understanding. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to switch up our usual lesson times and Larissa accommodated me without issue and sacrificed her time for me. We had some really lovely chats and we both got to know each other as people. I can’t praise Larissa enough!! I’m ready to be on the road as confident, safe driver all thanks to Larissa’s Driving School. I honestly can’t recommend her enough! I’m so happy I made that call those months ago. She is such a lovely person and the perfect instructor for me :)

Negative experience: It's taken me some time to leave this review as I wanted to make it as fair and factual as possible. I've broken my experience of 7 lessons down into pros and cons in a hope it will help others. For reference I am 30, have had 1 previous driving instructor and I was a very nervous learner. Cons: Larissa cancelled multiple lessons last minute or just forgot I had a lesson at all, she shout and swore at me when I did things incorrectly or I wasn't learning fast enough. She would use also her phone during the lessons, which I found distracting. If I said I didn't understand something Larissa frequently compared my progress to other students, telling me that "nobody else struggles with that". She has no patience for traffic and lacks professionalism toward other road users. Pros: She is funny and wasn't afraid to push me outside of my comfort zone. I found another instructor in my area who is kind, patient and calm.

Fantastic experience: Larissa is the third instructor I’ve had and I passed first time with her. I cannot speak highly enough of her teaching style and practical approach. She teaches not only to help you pass but how to drive in realistic scenarios. If you are looking for an instructor, Larissa is a great choice and would highly recommend taking lessons with her!!
