Learn to Drive with Tim Harris: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Excellent instructor that cares about your driving and you!!! I had ten lessons with Tim and passed first time, it was over the span of a year but that was down to my work-life balance, when it came down to lessons and the test Tim always made himself available and was helpful throughout the whole process, the experience made me a better driver and person. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to drive the right way and pass their test!! Top notch
Thankyou for the Kind Words Luke! Now it's your Turn! Get that Cornish Pizza Van Set up and I'll come for a pizza by the sea
Fantastic experience: Tim is a fantastic driving instructor -friendly, patient and professional, . He made me feel confident, and I passed my test on the first try. Highly recommend!
I'm so proud of you! Enjoy your Freedom!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic way of teaching, very easy to follow instructions. Highly recommended
Thankyou Louie! Enjoy that hard ernt Freedom
Fantastic experience: Tim was a genuine lifesaver! Honestly couldn't recommend him enough, he made driving feel so stress free and explained things in an amazing way which helped me wrap my mind around manoeuvres and rules I didn't think I'd ever understand. His support during my tests were incredible, he went above and beyond to send me helpful guides and offer advice outside of lesson time, and I couldn't be happier now I have passed. If you are looking for a friendly, approachable instructor who really knows his stuff then look no further :)
Thankyou so much Grace! Enjoy your Freedom, you have worked so hard. So proud
Fantastic experience: Best driving instructor I could've asked for. Calm, patient, charismatic, and knowledgeable. I always felt comfortable driving Tim's car, even in the beginning when we didn't know each other very well. It's like he knows how to tailor his teaching to your personality, to ensure that you progress at the best rate you can.
Thankyou so much Denis, you describe exactly how I teach, enjoy your Freedom!!
Fantastic experience: Can't thank Tim enough! Such a thoughtful, accommodating and knowledgeable instructor! Tim always went the extra mile to fit extra hours in for me and to build my confidence. Driving lessons were always enjoyable, comfortable and a calm learning environment, going to miss bumbling around Shrewsbury with you! Thank you for your endless encouragement! Can't recommend enough, best instructor out there by far!
Thankyou so much for your kind words! So so proud of what you have achieved so far, and your only just getting started
Fantastic experience: Tim has been such an amazing instructor, I feel so lucky to have had him. From the very beginning he was so kind fitting me into his schedule, and I love that he uses an app with reminders for upcoming lessons. He is super chilled and patient, and made me feel at ease behind the wheel so I actually really enjoyed the lessons while also seeing great improvements. He breaks things down really well into manageable steps, including useful tips to make things like manoeuvres less daunting. I swear he is also so good at knowing what's going on in your head as you drive, even if you don't say it aloud XD 100% recommend him as an instructor!
Thankyou so much for your kind words, you worked so hard, you deserve all the credit!
Fantastic experience: Tim has been the absolute best instructor for my son Rhys. From the first lesson he was full of encouragement and helped him build so much confidence. As a parent, mixed emotions are felt when your son/daughter enters the next milestone, but Tim was fully understanding of both parent and student. Rhys has passed his test 1st time and I am confident he has been geared up for the roads by the very best! Thank you for everything Tim
Thankyou for your Kind words Hannah. I wish you all, all the best for the future!

Fantastic experience: Tim is an excellent driving instructor, and I can't thank him enough for all his support during my lessons. He helped me feel relaxed behind the wheel and taught me essential driving skills in no time. He also made sure I was familiar with the test routes. I really appreciated how he broke down complex maneuvers into simpler steps, which made everything so much easier. Thanks to Tim’s patience and guidance, I passed my driving test on the first attempt! I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn driving.
Fantastic experience: Amazing Couldn’t of asked for more I was definitely one of those people that thought they were never gonna be able to drive but with the way Tim explains everything and the confidence he gives you makes the lessons very very enjoyable and extremely easy to understand Would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a driving instructor and this is the place to go
Fantastic experience: I was a little apprehensive about trying to arrange driving lessons for my daughter. Tried a recommendation, called a few others, waited days for a reply or ‘sorry can’t help until 2025’. Then on the list was Learn to Drive with Tim Harris. What a revelation! Tim could not have done more to help. From arranging lesson times, feedback with direction and pointers to help while she was driving with me to arranging a short notice test. Tim uses an app with reminders about lessons for forgetful students, alerts to advise cancellation vacancies and generally keeping track of progress. On top of all that help and advice, my daughter says he’s great to drive with and thoroughly enjoyed the lessons. Test prep and mock tests, a first time pass, there’s nothing but a glowing 5 stars for Learn to Drive with Tim Harris. Highly recommended without reservation.
Thankyou for your Kind works Mick, its means alot! Thankyou so much
Fantastic experience: From scratch to pass in less than 2 months. A genuine bloke who could put the most nervous person at ease. Would recommend to everyone 100%

Fantastic experience: Recommend Tim to any learner driver!! He has such a relaxing, friendly vibe about him you know it’ll always be a cool chill lesson. He’s very thorough and helpful with explaining things so you actually understand everything and honestly had the best experience and fun along the way.

Fantastic experience: As a parent finding the right instructor to teach our son to drive was really important. And in Tim we definitely found the right person. He was just what our son needed with the right mix of instruction, encouragement and humour. Tim was professional in his approach, replying quickly to any questions and giving helpful advice for us as parents in supporting our son when he began driving our car. It’s been a really positive experience all round and I would highly recommend Tim if you are looking for a driving instructor.
Thankyou Isabel for your kind words, your feedback means alot to me. If you need anything, never hesitate
Fantastic experience: By the time I passed my test I had just done over 30 hours of driving and Tim was brilliant. He created a positive atmosphere and approach to teaching which made it possible and actually enjoyable learning to drive. Overall I couldn’t recommend anyone better.
thanks Joel! I'll see you on the road!!!
Fantastic experience: Took me no time at all to pass, Tim was very attentive and helped me learn in a way that I could best understand, went through a couple instructors before Tim and he was the best so far, couldn’t recommend him more, if you want to pass, choose Tim!

Fantastic experience: From the initial enquiry to Jack passing his test, Tim has been nothing but excellent, in fact faultless. Not only has he been a brilliant instructor, teaching Jack to such a high standard he passed first time with one minor, he has continued to boost Jack’s confidence throughout each driving lesson. One thing to add, as Jack is our first child of driving age, Tim has reassured me throughout and always offered his help and support as and when needed. I would truly highly recommend Tim to all new drivers (and parents) in and around Shrewsbury.
Thankyou for your kind words! It means so much
Fantastic experience: Great driving instructor, passed first time from his teaching, great guy!

All thanks to Tim, I could not have wished for a better teacher for my daughter!

Overall my experience with Tim has been nothing short of positive, a truly good instructor i can’t recommend enough.
Thankyou Ben! Enjoy your well deserved freedom!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic Driving Instructor. I'm an older guy (34) always been very nervous to even attempt doing my driving licence to the point that I put it off for 17 years. I have had lots of lessons over the years with different driving firms but had never thought I would ever get to the point that I would pass my test. I got set up with Tim and he really breezed me through and gave me the confidence to do my test. I passed my driving test today with flying colours and really owe it all to Tim. I would recommend Tim to everyone, he's a top bloke and I will be booking my oldest son in to do his driving with Tim when he becomes old enough in 2.5 years. A++++++
Fantastic experience: Thank you Tim for helping me pass my driving test and for all your hard work - you have gone above and beyond with your teaching and really given me a great foundation of skills set for driving. After taking driving lessons for a number of years before the pandemic with several different instructors, I feel I’ve only truly understood the skills of driving once starting lessons with Tim. His process is very thorough and honest. Thanks!! ☺️
Thankyou so much Aakanksha! it has been a pleasure to give you "The Knowledge. Enjoy your new found freedom! I'll see you out there
Fantastic experience: Refresher lessons (4 hours over 2 lessons) Not driven in 16 years, needed some help to get back behind the wheel. Tim is a really great instructor - hints and tips for 'real world' situations and helpful without being at all patronising. We found a really good balance between independent driving and giving assistance when needed. I suspect he'd be great for learner drivers with concise instructions, clear explanations (he has a mini whiteboard and various preprepared diagrams for tackling tricky roundabouts) and the patience to help them to gain confidence on the road.
Thankyou for your Kind words Katie, I'll hopefully see you out on the road driving the dog to nice walks!
Fantastic experience: A big shout out to Tim for his kindness and patience with me and for believing I was good enough to pass first time ! I did it ! Tim is really easy to get on with which helps so much when your nervous thanks tim
Fantastic experience: Tim is an excellent driving instructor! He's very patient, supportive and dedicated, and would always go out of his way to help. I'd definitely recommend him!

Fantastic experience: Tim is a phenomenal instructor, really informative and easy to talk to, makes you feel comfortable and helped my driving personally come on in leaps and bounds, I would highly recommend Tim to anyone learning to drive
Thankyou Ethan. Enjoy your hard earnt Freedom! It has been a pleasure, Love the use of the word phenomenal!
Fantastic experience: Tim is an excellent instructor. He is very patient, so friendly and always finds a way to explain things. I just had 16 hours of lessons to pass my driving test and I wouldn’t passed my driving test without his support. I recommend to everyone
thanks fornyour kind words Alan! not everyone can donit 16 hours. you really put the hard work in! enjoy your Licence!
Fantastic experience: Tim has been amazing both as a person and an instructor. He really wants every one of his students to pass and goes above and beyond for them. He has always fit me in for lessons and been so flexible especially around test date. I couldn’t recommend him enough. I originally learnt in Stoke and he really reassured me and made me test ready for Shrewsbury almost after a few lessons! He’s really patient and has a calming energy which is perfect for learners. On my test I only had 1 minor and that really shows you how good of an instructor he is! I will miss our lessons and laughs but so glad to have passed with your help :)) best wishes, Sona.
Thankyou for your Lovly Words Sona. It was a Pleasure to assist you on your journey on becoming a safe driver! Stay safe and I'll see you on the road
Fantastic experience: Tim is just the most chill dude I’ve meet in a long time. He have easy ways to explain different manoeuvres and he “Tim’s top tips” are very helpful. He was very helpful as I was being difficult with when I could do my lesson.
Thankyou for the kind words Joey. It was great to help you, i wish you all the best in your future
Fantastic experience: Such an amazing guy, super chilled, built my confidence from the ground up with vast amounts of patience for me and is always ready to drop everything to help you out. 100% recommend! Thanks again Tim!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Tim to anyone. I began having lessons with him after initially failing my test elsewhere. He helped to target where my downfalls were, enabling me to pass my test on my second attempt. He was reliable and punctual to our lessons, and ensured each was beneficial in helping me toward my goal. Alongside this, he focused clearly on why it is important to drive safely and the long term importance of safe driving, rather than just trying to ‘tick the boxes’ to get me through the test. Therefore, I would highly recommend Tim, and am very grateful for his help!
Thankyou So much For your Kind words Alice. Enjoy your Well Deserved Freedom you worked so hard enabling you to Pass with a good mark Stay Safe and Enjoy
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Tim enough or do justice to what an excellent instructor he is! Before starting with Tim, I was a very nervous driver with little skill or confidence. Tim met me where I was at and remained patient through each lesson and always communicated clearly and calmly. Tim will make you feel safe every step of the way, he has taught me to trust my instincts and helped me to understand how I can keep myself and others safe. I now feel truly confident behind the wheel and believe in my driving ability, I am certain I would not have this same confidence had I gone with any other instructor. Tim will go above and beyond to help you get to where you want to be, he truly cares about his students and the experience they have while learning to drive as well as their success. He will make sure he gets the best possible driver out of you and will always see your potential. It is so rare to find a great instructor who is passionate about what they do but Tim is surely one of them! Huge thank you Tim!
Thankyou so much for your kind words Charlotte, really humbling . It was a pleasure to teach you and I'm so proud of how you drive now. I'll see you out on the road fellow driver.

Fantastic experience: Excellent instructor, informative, patient, friendly and really helped develope practical driving skills/experience. Passed first time and Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Tim is an amazing driving Instructor. After many failed attempts with other instructors who just wanted my money but didn't help me progress Tim was a breath of fresh air. He helped me with my confidence and my nerves. On the day of my test test Tim made sure he was as flexible as possible. My test wasn't until 3.29pm but he come to get me at 1.45. This made sure that I had a hour of driving before my test to make sure I felt confident enough to do everything I needed to. The best part was when Tim went on a 5 min walk with me to calm me down and set me straight (he also did some breathing exercises with me). I have always been a very anxious and nervous person but Tim somehow took that all away. Thank you so much Tim If you want to pass Tim is the man
