What An L Of A Drive: Reviews
Fantastic experience: To share my experience with Craig, he is a great driving instructor with a wonderful teaching method that is really helpful for learner drivers. I would most definitely recommend him as a driving instructor as he transforms his students into great independent drivers.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best in the business. Really great guy, very professional, easy to talk to and understand his teachings, they really do stick. This is coming from a guy who struggled to concentrate, he helped me get focused and concentrated. Thank you Craig for everything! You’re the best. Thanks, Cameron..
Fantastic experience: I absolutely couldn’t recommend Craig enough! He’s such a patient, lighthearted and knowledgeable driving instructor - he really made the whole process of learning to drive feel so comfortable. If I didn’t understand something he would always find other ways to explain it to make it stick, and created such a nice judgement-free zone. I also just had a lot of fun, I always looked forward to our lessons and I feel like I have a really positive idea of driving because of him. And I passed with just 3 minors! Thank you Craigy :)
Fantastic experience: Craig is an excellent driver instructor. I needed refresher lessons after a long period of not driving. He was kind, patient and really knew his stuff. He explained things clearly and made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend him. Thanks
Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend more, great instructor and top bloke. 10/10

Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend Craig enough, I passed first time with zero faults last week after having lessons with him. His method of teaching is wonderful and he's such a lovely bloke! He's cool, calm and collected, explains things in a way that sticks. I really enjoyed our lessons and although I'm extremely happy to have passed I'll miss our Thursday morning lessons. If you want to pass your test with an absolute legend of a teacher then book with Craig

Fantastic experience: Just the best teacher! Craig is calm, patient, considerate, has a brilliant sense of humour. I was so scared of learning to drive, but actually had great fun in the lessons and in the end passed my test first time. I’d give him more than 5 stars if I could!

Fantastic experience: Amazing driving instructor. Craig was calm, professional, and good humoured throughout the whole process. A cut above the rest. He was patient and got my confidence up behind the wheel. He'll always notice what you can do to improve you're driving and explain things in a clear and calm manner. On top of this he's just a fantastic bloke. Could not recommend more.
Fantastic experience: As a “mature” learner with previous driving experience in another country I was quite worried about my ability to adapt to driving in the UK. My instructor not only helped me with learning and adhering to the highway code but with my confidence as well. And because of his excellent teaching ability and seemingly endless patience I was able to pass my driving test at the first go!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic driving instructor, is easy to have banter with but is strict when necessary. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: First time pass! I'd really recommend Craig, he's a really friendly guy, has always been punctual and is truly brilliant at his job. He is really good at analyzing your driving, figuring out what you're misunderstanding and giving you helpful feedback to correct it. Cheers Craig!
Fantastic experience: Craig is a great teacher and got me confidently driving fast. He accommodated my 'needs' (with needing things repeated/explained differently) which really helped me feel comfortable and supported, especially after not getting this expierence with a previous instructor. If you're after a driving instructor; Craig is a patient, friendly, funny guy that makes you feel instantly comfortable from the first lesson & does a great job of building your confidence on the road. Could not reccomend 'What an L of a Drive' enough. Thank you again Craig for being lovely and getting me a 1st time pass! Over the moon.
Fantastic experience: After a hell of a long journey learning to drive through covid and going through my share of instructors I finally met Craig. Craig is literally miles above any instructor I have worked with. If your looking for someone who can get you to pass, look no further. He is true professional at what he does being patient, providing excellent advice and more importantly actually caring about his pupils, and I cannot recommend him more highly.
Fantastic experience: Craig helped me with some refresher lessons having not driven for nearly a decade. He was superb - clear, calm and generally a nice guy who is easy to be around. I was back on the road in no time and felt really confident and a lot of that credit goes to Craig - would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructor and a really nice guy too. I had lessons with Craig for around five months before passing my test today. I would highly recommend Craig to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Craig was the perfect instructor from start to till the day I passed, very charismatic and friendly. Always answered questions when I would message him quickly and always communicated with the me (the student) very well when it came to things like having to reschedule lessons. Highly Recommend to anyone thinking of getting started and is worried about feeling comfortable on the road
Positive experience: Only for manual
Fantastic experience: Booked refresher lessons after seeing all the good reviews and could not have been more pleased with it! As someone holding a french driving license and never got to drive here, Craig listened to what the points I wanted to focus on were and managed to understand all the things I struggled with and explain how to fix them in such a way that I could see progress within an hour each time! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I passed first time after brilliant guidance from Craig. He spent time with me conquering my fear of the ‘dreaded roundabout’ in a great way and spent plenty of time on theory and practical sides of road allowing me to go into my test with confidence. I looked forward to each lesson. Sense of humour was also on point.
Fantastic experience: I’ve recently had a few refresher lessons with Craig. I’d become very nervous, especially with faster country lanes and motorways since my car accident. He listened to my needs and concerns and was very patient. I can’t thank him enough for helping me get back to being a confident driver again. I would thoroughly recommend him as a driving instructor and have already passed on your details. Thank you
