Fantastic experience: Amazing teacher and made learning how to drive fun
Thanks Joseph and congratulations on passing again.
Fantastic experience: I’m writing to highly recommend Chris. I don’t usually do online reviews but Chris was excellent in the way that he taught my son to drive. Thanks to Chris’ patience and skill my son achieved a first time pass. He was very patient and encouraged my son with each lesson to build up good driving skills and confidence. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Chris as an instructor. He also taught my daughter to drive and she passed first time too! Amanda, Radlett.
Thank you Amanda and well done Oli for passing first time
Fantastic experience: Very grateful to Chris for being extremely reliable and making everything so straightforward and ensuring my daughter passed first time, thank you
Thank you Carolyn and congratulations again to Tara, she did great
Fantastic experience: Chris is great! I was a very nervous driver & didn’t start learning until I was 30. After some lessons with another instructor who I didn’t gel with and made me feel very stressed while driving, I was even more nervous when I started with Chris. But he put me at ease straight away and was clear and patient with instructions, and made sure I had all the manoeuvres perfect before my test. I passed with only 2 minors and felt confident before my test. Highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to learn to drive soon.
Thank you Lucy. Congratulations again on passing today.
Fantastic experience: Chris has been an incredible instructor on my journey to passing my test, patient and understanding when needed, and clear with his corrections anytime bad habits rear their heads. After a few lessons, you realise Chris has an incredible understanding of the road and its users, which makes you feel like you are truly ready for the test when he tells you such. Thank you again, Chris!
Thank you Alistair and congratulations again on passing today
Fantastic experience: Chris is an exceptional instructor, he makes learning to drive an enjoyable experience and I was able to pass first time!
Thank you Austin. Congratulations again
Fantastic experience: Chris is the best! I have passed my driving test first time and I could not have done it without Chris. He made our lessons enjoyable and ensured that I was confident with everything before moving onto the next topics. I was able to go into my test 100% certain that I am prepared for anything. Chris is an excellent teacher and really boosts your confidence behind the wheel, I could not recommend him enough.
Thank you Anastasija and congrats again
Fantastic experience: Chris is a fantastic instructor, and really makes you feel comfortable behind the wheel. He's quick to point out faults/ decisions on the road that could grow into bad habits or cause you to fail if left unchecked, giving you the best chance to develop strong driving skills. He's honest about your progress and will only encourage you to take the test when he truly believes you will pass, so you can be confident you'll succeed. Lessons are great fun, and thanks to our many engaging conversations, I feel confident to drive with passengers. Thanks for everything.
Thank you Ethan and congratulations on passing first time
Fantastic experience: The unanimous 5 star ratings speaks for itself Thanks to Chris I was able to pass first time. From the first lesson to the last I knew that I was in the safe hands of a professional who is as good as they come. He is a friendly instructor that you can laugh with and one that helps to bring out your confidence in order to achieve. I couldn’t have had a better experience learning to drive.
Thank you Frankie and congratulations again on passing first time today.

He is a great mentor and friend the level of service was excellent very thorough and will show you any imperfection and show you how to fix them. Thank you Chris
Thank you Tye and congratulations again on passing first time with only 1 minor fault.
Fantastic experience: Chris has been an amazing instructor leading to me passing my test 1st time with only 1 minor, he explained everything so well and was really patient whilst teaching me making me prepared for both the test and driving afterwards
Thank you Bryce and congratulations again. Great job
Fantastic experience: been taking lessons with chris for basically a year now, and he taught me flawless driving from first minute till last and i managed to pass first time with no minors!! super friendly too
Thank you Richard and congratulations on passing your test first time with no faults at all. Great job enjoy your freedom in your own car now.
Fantastic experience: Do you want to pass your driving test first time? Well the answer to this, for me at least, was Chris (I passed with only 1 minor). Having tried a number of instructors first, I knew from my first lesson that Chris was the right fit for me. He was very organised (folder with highlighters), prompt (never late) and laser focused on getting me ready for my test which at this point was 6 months away. The lessons were calm but had a focus and he is not afraid to tell you where and when your going wrong and help you correct this fast. 6 Months felt like ages but for me was just about enough time to learn everything. To start we covered the basics, understanding clutch and accelerator (which Chris had diagrams prepared showing how these actually work). Moving on we took to turning left working towards meeting traffic. After a bit of time we started to look at the bigger roundabouts and manoeuvres. The reason Chris's teaching is so good is the fact its extremely well structured and you have a plan! A plan that works to pass! Good luck!
Thank you Laurence and congratulations again on passing first time today with only 1 minor fault. Amazing job. Enjoy the freedom you now have with driving
Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing instructor, he is very calm and patient which makes him an excellent teacher, he explains all the manoeuvres in a simple straight forward manner and my lessons with him always ran smoothly. He always made sure I got the most from every lesson and is definitely worth the money. Thanks to the help of Chris I managed to pass my test first time with two minors. Highly recommend
Thank you Melissa and congratulations again on passing first time
Fantastic experience: Great teacher with amazing patience and skills. Chris is easy to talk to and has good banter. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to pass their driving test first time.
Thank you Grace I'm so pleased for you.
Fantastic experience: Chris is a superb instructor & very professional, who makes you feel at ease behind the wheel. He explains the theory behind driving clearly. I could not recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: Chris was a brilliant driving instructor. Made me feel so comfortable and an easy environment to learn in.

All the hard work we put in over the months meant that I was prepared and ready to face any challenge that came my way. I couldn’t recommend enough.
Congratulations again Ollie for passing first time today
Fantastic experience: I hadn’t driven for a long time and needed to build back up my confidence. Chris is a great instructor, super patient and knowledgeable. Kept on challenging me to improve and found him great to deal with as well, always super punctual and professional. Brilliant instructor!! Honestly can’t recommend highly enough – thanks Chris!!!
Thanks Rick It was pleasure building your confidence and skills back up.

Thank you Hugo and congratulations again today passing first time.
Fantastic experience: Great experience with a warm and patient teacher who knows exactly what they’re doing. The lessons were well worth the price and found myself greatly looking forward to them. I wouldn’t know where to begin if I were to suggest any improvements, I feel very lucky that I learned to drive with this Driving school.
Thank you Rory and congratulations again on passing first time.
Fantastic experience: I’ve just passed my test with Chris with 2 minors. He is most certainly the best instructor out there. When people thought I’d give up manual and move to automatic, Chris was there for me and made sure that I kept going. He gave me such great encouragement every lesson and has most certainly made me a very safe driver. He is so knowledgeable about all the different routes and if you aren’t the most confident person on the roads, he will reassure you and take everything at a smooth controlled pace. Always on time and a great chat. Thank you so much Chris!
Congratulations again Jamie and well done passing first time
Fantastic experience: Chris was a fantastic driving instructor who equipped me with every possible tool I would need to pass my test and be confident to drive independently. I recently passed with 1 minor and all the hard work and lessons made me prepared to face anything that could have came up on my test. He was highly organised and was great at organising consistent lessons so I could continuously learn. I would highly recommend if you want to learn how to drive safely and properly.
Thank you Josh and congratulations again on passing first time.
Fantastic experience: Chris is a super friendly and helpful instructor. Got me up to speed really quickly and gave me the confidence to pass. He doesn't just teach you for the test, he teaches you how to drive properly which really helps. Can't recommend him enough, got me to pass with zero minors first time!
Thanks Ben, congratulations again on passing first time with no faults at all. Amazing

Fantastic experience: Chris helped me pass my test first time today, after not being ready for my test at all when I first started with him 6 months ago (despite thinking I was!). Chris has taught me to drive safely and confidently, and during lessons he always calmed me down and stopped me panicking! On top of all of this, Chris is such a lovely person and I would recommend him to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I was a bit wary of re-starting driving lessons having not driven for seven years, but from the moment I met Chris, he made the process as enjoyable and straightforward as possible.

Thank you Zac and congratulations again on passing your driving test at Mill Hill driving test centre.
Fantastic experience: I had a brilliant experience with Chris as my driving instructor. He’s calm, thoughtful and his learner-centred approach to teaching was exactly what I needed. He always adapted to my needs and agenda but also kept me focused and gave loads of tips and advice. Once I got the hang of the driving, he knew I needed help with the mental preparation for the test (and beyond) so that’s what we worked on. I passed first time in just over three months. Can’t recommend Chris enough, especially if you struggle with confidence. I’m actually going to miss our lessons!
Thank you Sarah that's very kind of you. I'm so happy for you congratulations again for passing first time at Borehamwood driving test centre.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing Journey with the best instructor ever....Chris is not only professional and friendly but very intuitive about adapting teaching methods. Chris tried to you understand my driving habits and my way of thinking when driving with through out patience and encouragement. I learned what it really means to be a safe and considerate driver for myself and all other road users. Am almost sad that I will not drive with you anymore that I got my driving licence. You are the best....HIGHLY RECOMMEND

He explained everything clearly to me and he didn’t find it a problem repeating it many times when I needed. I’m more confident in my driving. Thanks Chris.
Thanks Bibi I'm glad I could help you get your confidence back.
Fantastic experience: Great driving school, would highly recommend I drove with Chris for nearly 20 hours over a period of 3 months, and I was able to pass my practical driving test on the first attempt. Always punctual and a pleasure to learn from, Chris was a fantastic teacher. He was very accommodating in booking times around my schedule. It was especially nice to be taught by Chris because he took pride in both making me well prepared for the test and making sure I was truly a safe and considerate driver.
Thank you Matteo and congrats again on passing first time at Hendon driving test centre. Great job.
Fantastic experience: Met Chris after I had failed my first driving test and I had an assessment with him. Right from that moment I felt comfortable with having lessons with him and I told him that day that I’ll be more than glad to have him sit in the on my next test day (which I didn’t allow my previous instructor before Chris) Chris’s approach towards lessons is highly professional and top notch. He just makes it look so easy and that boosted my confidence every lesson. His flexibility and punctuality as well is great and every lesson was filled with humor and encouragement from Chris. Today I passed my test with Chris in the car haha Just as I promised him on the first day we met. 5 stars ain’t enough. Thanks a lot Chris. Well done (like he says)
Thank you Abbey and well done you did great today passing at St Albans driving test centre.
