Dave Pester Driving School

Fantastic experience: I was recommended Dave through my partners family due to his excellent way of teaching and after doing my first lesson with him myself I knew Dave was the best instructor for me. I've always struggled with the fear of failing which ended up making me nervous of too hesitant when driving. I did have several lessons years ago but I decided to fully commit to getting a license this time so my driving ability was timid and cautious but Dave helped me to pick up driving and his teaching methods are excellent. We went around the test center route to get familiar with the area which boosted my confidence even more. I will be recommending Dave to anyone that is looking to learn to drive and I hope strangers on here take a leap of faith with him, he's the best in the business!

Fantastic experience: I got in touch with Dave after my previous driving instructor had to close his business, Dave was so accommodating and really helped me out last minute when I had a test in 2 months and no instructor! I really struggled with anxiety around driving, but Dave was so calm, patient and kind he really helped me settle my nerves. I found his teaching to be really clear and he had a real practical approach which helped me build my experience. I would definitely recommend Dave, he is a brilliant teacher and very kind and empathetic if you struggle with nerves. Thanks so much Dave!

Fantastic experience: I chose Dave because of the outstanding reviews he has and his track record for getting pupils through their tests with a cool and calm attitude. Everyone spoke about how his approach was very practical and focused on letting the pupil drive and that really appealed to me as a hands-on learner. I loved that the only times we stopped driving were to learn a new manoeuvre or take a moment to have a break. He was really clear with his instructions and told you everything you needed to know without overwhelming you with details right away. He was amazing at forcing you to practice things you said you didn’t like, if you say you hate doing it, expect to practice many times! It was the best way to overcome any fears I had and I appreciate it a lot. I would absolutely recommend Dave to friends. I never imagined I would pass first time with only 3 faults and that’s down to Dave’s patience and expertise. He creates a very comfortable learning environment and will make you feel very at ease while you’re learning. Thank you for everything Dave!

Fantastic experience: I choose Dave Pester driving school after a horrible experience with another instructor which left me scared to drive after he shouted at me. Dave is so kind, laid back, caring & above all else understands, I always felt comfortable & excited for my next lesson. Even when I didn’t get things right first time Dave was still there boosting my confidence every time cheering me on. I would recommend Dave to everyone but especially anyone who is worried or nervous because Dave will definitely take that worry away. Being able to drive has & will change my life completely, I always put driving on the back burner but now I’ve done something for myself in life before turning 34. But it’s something I’ve been able to accomplished thanks to Dave because without him I don’t think I wouldn’t have. Advise to anyone is just take your time, slow & steady wins the race coming from a girl that put her head on the steering wheel in the test centre car park. Honestly I done my best & that’s all anyone can do. Thank you so much Dave if anything I’m sad my lessons come to an end because they was always a good laugh, had a good chat & made learning fun. Thank you for helping me achieve my 2024 goal

Fantastic experience: i chose Dave Pester Driving School because he come highly recommended by my best friend Dave made learning to drive so easy, he had confidence in me even when i had zero clue Dave was so patient and kind i’d recommend DPDS to anyone i know that is wanting to learn, Dave was so encouraging and never got upset when you didn’t quite understand something Being able to drive means so much to me, my brother lives far away so being able to visit him with ease is such an important thing! i’ll probably drive to work first my advice is to just do it. being scared is not possible when you are in control. i honestly can’t think of a single thing that could have been done better. THANK YOU!
