Fantastic experience: I had the absolute privilege of being taught to drive by Colin. I had previously failed my test with another instructor and had absolutely no confidence.

Guardian Devil 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: He offers an excellent service as he really knows his stuff. He has got a good subject knowledge and give you information in bitesize. He will take his time if you need more help and once you understand it, he will move on to the next module. He will give you a progress card and will explain it all for you + block booking discounts, better than most. It is a more independent service rather than mainstream learning, hence more tailored. A nice car to learn in and very comfortable. Good to see that he has not just gone for fuel economy car but went for a decent model. I would highly recommend this one ☝

Olivia Nash 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had Colin for around 3 months after struggling to pass my driving test with another driving instructor. When I came to Colin I was a nervous driver and I was reluctant to drive. With thanks to Colin I have just passed my driving test as he made me a much more confident driver. Colin makes you feel at ease and is a very friendly driving instructor.
