Fantastic experience: I have throughly enjoyed learning to drive and couldn’t recommend Fraser enough for anyone looking to learn to drive. He planned out lessons well to meet my needs and managed to correct out all my errors or concerns quickly and efficiently leading to strong progress. Not only this but he also advised in directions for personal practice or research on how to deal with different road situations. Managed to pass my test first time with high confidence within 4 months thanks to Frasers commitment to efficiently and effectively teaching how to drive in a test and real world environment.

Fantastic experience: After years of getting around on my bike, I finally started learning to drive at 40, and recently passed my test at the second attempt. It must have been a different experience for Fraser and not just me, to teach an older learner with a lot of experience/intuition from cycling (both a good and a bad thing for driving). Luckily Fraser doesn't have one rigid style, but is really good at adapting to the needs of his learners - no doubt from all his years of experience teaching, first in a school and now as a driving instructor. He was really good at spotting areas for improvement and planning lessons to fit those needs. He's also just a really nice, cheerful, calm person - so I'd wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone learning to drive, whatever their age.

Hi Josef, I am a driving instructor based in Norwich and I do not know you. I do not know a Faith either. I wonder if you may have had a bad experience with a driving school of a similar name to mine and I am sorry if that’s the case, it must be very frustrating. I would be grateful if you could remove your review from my account.

Thea Parau 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fraser really helped me gain confidence in my driving. He aided me in working out all the flaws in my driving without losing his patience at all. He is very friendly and gave me useful advice to getting through the driving test nerves. Each lesson was extremely well structured and allowed me to make great advances lesson-to-lesson. He also was useful in asking for my input to any areas I wanted more practice in. I recommend Fraser for future drivers, especially if, like me, they were slightly anxious about the test.

Fantastic experience: Fraser is a kind, patient, and knowledgable teacher, who helped me feel at ease driving. I was extremely nervous about learning to drive at first and he helped me feel confident and safe behind the wheel. Driving lessons were always well planned and tailored to what I wanted to learn, with lots of encouragement and useful feedback. I passed my driving test first time with two minor faults. I would wholeheartedly recommend Fraser Sparks to anyone learning to drive in Norwich, he's the best!

Always very prepared for lessons and on time. 100% would and have recommended to friends. I have tried other instructors in the past, but none compare.

Fantastic experience: Fraser was perfect. He's very professional and I enjoyed every minute of being taught by him because he is so friendly, kind and caring. We would always have great conversations too which really relaxed me when driving, which for me really helped on my test because I would pretend that I was with Fraser when having conversations with the examiner. He is very skilled and patient when it comes to driving and is brilliant at building confidence. When test day came, I was quite nervous, but Fraser really reassured me, and I passed my driving test first try. Thankyou so much Fraser for all the lessons and being so incredible at what you do! - Max

Fantastic experience: Fraser Sparks is a fantastic driving instructor. His lessons are constructive and well structured and most importantly enjoyable. Driving can be stressful but is made easier because Frasers is calm and patient. Fraser is very kind which creates a comfortable environment inwhich to learn in. Lessons are individually tailored to your driving ability which helped me to keep moving towards my goal of passing my test and I always felt as though I was progressing with each lesson. Fraser also not only teaches you to pass your test but also how to be a better driver beyond the driving test, which I've found to be invaluable as a new driver. With Frasers teaching i was able to pass my test first time which im very grateful for. Its been a pleasure learning to drive with Fraser! Ben

Fantastic experience: Fraser is certainly the man to go to if you are thinking about learning to drive and there would definitely be 6 stars here if possible. It is such a relaxed environment with Fraser and that's what made learning to drive how it should be: fun! The lessons are never done in search of money and always at a time which suits you, working around either school or work patterns. Fraser's outstanding knowledge and superb tuition helped me to achieve 0 faults in my test and an overwhelming sense of joy when venturing out onto the road alone for the first time. I cannot thank him enough!

Fantastic experience: It’s been an absolute pleasure to learn driving from Fraser Sparks. I came to him after I failed my driving test once and lost the confidence in me. With your guidance and patience you taught me the skills to become a safe driver. Thank you for bringing my confidence to drive back and for helping me to overcome my nervousness. I passed my test with no faults at all (0 Major and 0 minor)- all credits to Fraser for his hard work and faith in me. Fraser is extremely polite, very caring and at the same time very professional which one would look for in an excellent instructor. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is keen to learn from an experienced and amazing instructor. Amita

CocoaPixxie 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fraser is a brilliant driving instructor. I had five different instructors before him, some good and some not-so-much, but I never managed to feel comfortable and competent when driving. Having always been extremely nervous behind the wheel, I took about four exams in less than six months and I failed all of them. That really knocked my confidence even further, despite being told I can drive and despite the numerous hours (70-80) of practice. Having taken me a total of over two years of learning, Fraser was my sixth and final instructor that managed to concise all the knowledge in my head in just over two months. He did this in the following way: Value for money Fraser charges fairly. He will not sell you the idea that ‘you get more if you pay more’. His rates are consistent and average with other instructors’ rates, but he will not waste your time (and your money) sitting you on the side of the road and talking for lengthy periods of time. Helpful tools Occasionally, Fraser will provide links to video material that complement your lessons. I only watched two or three of those but I found them extremely helpful! This is because these tools were shared with me at a time Fraser knew these will be useful. In comparison, previously I used to watch hours of driving tuition tutorials online and none of that helped. Commitment and accountability Fraser outlines boundaries for the lessons right from the first time he meets you. Commitment and accountability is expected both ways. For example, he took money off a lesson once as he was late due to traffic. Similarly, I was late once and I still paid the full price for my lesson, which is totally fair. Structure Fraser plans and discusses each lesson with you. He keeps a log of each and every lesson, but his methods are not rigid. He is flexible enough and offers guidance each time, encouraging you to participate in the planning and making decisions. Despite not knowing what is best for me, I felt this was quite empowering and I was able to eventually say what I wanted to practice on or what I didn’t understand. Feedback All of the feedback I received from Fraser was something I was looking forward to. Whilst historically I felt anxious during lessons, due to feeling the instructor’s frustration with me or being overly critical, Fraser offers fair and realistic feedback about improving your skills. Professionalism I am not comfortable sitting next to strangers, in a car or elsewhere. Fraser conducts himself in a very professional yet relaxed manner, so I felt at ease and comfortable myself. Advice for the future After I passed my test, Fraser provided me with leaflets and information on insurance, places in the city I can get my car checked and other helpful advice. In summary, I passed my test first time with him with only two minors. The first time I got in my own car, four days after I passed my test, I had two adults and a small child at the back. Confidence much?

Fantastic experience: Fraser is the man to get you through your driving test being a beginner or like myself coming back to driving after a few years. I was recommended Fraser by my great aunt who had refresher lessons. I have never felt so praised, confident and relaxed by a driving instructor before. He plays with your strengths getting to know you and the way you work as a individual. Not once was there a negative vibe. Its taken me a day to write this as I have been in shock as I'm so pleased that I passed my test on Friday 2nd February 2018 and that was yes down to myself but I have got to give credit to a brilliant driving instructor Fraser Sparks who believed in me like he will you.
