Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing instructor. Without doubt, the best there is. James got our daughter through her test first time. He made the lessons fun and exciting, which is exactly what she needed, and always made her feel good - even when she made mistakes, which learners are bound to do. Very flexible and always tried his best to accommodate her A-level timetable. Nothing was too much effort, no question too big or small, and the confidence he has given her is off the charts. Really looking forward to him instructing our other daughter when she hits 17.

Fantastic experience: An amazing instructor! James was generous enough to take me on for driving lessons very last minute due to my original instructor being unable to continue lessons.

I always enjoyed the lessons, very professional, very entertaining and always felt comfortable in his presence.

He is very flexible with his schedule and is very reassuring with any problems you face while learning to drive.

He tailors your lessons around you and the aspects of driving you are struggling with which is also important. Cannot recommend James highly enough- brilliant instructor and brilliant guy!

Fantastic experience: I started to learn how to drive when I was 17 with a different instructor who I really didn’t get on with and struggled to learn with their teaching technique. I felt so rubbish after every lesson that I decided that driving wasn’t for me and that I really did not want to learn how to drive... 2 years later I wanted to try again and I fortunately found James who had availability to teach me how to drive! Its been a fantastic journey to which I have recently passed first time with NO MINORS!!! I 100% definitely recommend to anyone! Great teaching style and James will make you feel at ease every lesson giving you great confidence to drive!
