Fantastic experience: It started well over a year ago looking for an instructor. I struggled to find one which was right for me, (some think you’re 17 years old and can talk to you how they want). I am 33 and by chance my mum bumped into Simon forrest while shopping and Simon kindly rang me when he had evening availability. He quickly makes you feel settled in the car and understands your capabilities quickly and then guides you step by step to become the learner you need to be to pass your test. Excellent teaching strategies and professionalism from Simon and above all the patience and consistency needed to get you where you need to be, not everyone has them qualities especially when it cones to teaching . I Would 100% recommend Simon to anyone.

Hi James, congratulations on your recent test pass, especially as you had to adapt to a new car on test day! It has been a pleasure teaching and getting to know you.

Negative experience: Dangerous Driving around horses. A woman with blonde hair instructed the learner driver to pass me on the horse far too closely, completely disregarding the safety of both rider and animal (I was able to touch the car). When I tried to inform her of the rules of the road, she wound her window up and carried on. Anyone with even a basic understanding of road safety knows that horses can be unpredictable and must be given plenty of space. She should not be teaching new drivers.

Thank you for getting in touch, we will investigate fully. All our driving instructors take road safety very seriously and we are sorry if you felt that our instruction in this incident was below our normal standards.

Fantastic experience: I had Aaron who brought me through from start to finish. The guy was fantastic. To say i was nervous to start would be a understatement but he made me feel safe and at ease from the first lesson to the last. Professional service & i will recommend to family & friends. 10/10

Fantastic experience: My daughter just passed first time with Dawood.He has been an excellent instructor,she was a very nervous driver to start but the trust and belief he had in her has made her flourish into a confident and safe driver! I cannot thank Dawood enough for everything he has done for my daughter and would highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: Geoff Capes Driving School is absolutely brilliant. I had Simon Forrest as my driving instructor, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to pass their driving test. If it were not for Simon, I probably would not have passed both my theory and practical tests on the first attempt. Simon's method of teaching is amazing, especially for naturally nervous or anxious people like myself. I would like to say a massive thank you to Simon and his team for not just helping me pass my test, but for making me feel safe and comfortable driving on my own in the future.
