Fantastic experience: If you want to learn how to drive safely, confidently, and to a high standard, I would highly recommend taking lessons with Chris. Having failed my driving test 4 times with a previous instructor, I had serious doubts that I'd ever be able to pass the test. Chris was able to improve my driving skills and my self belief so much, that I just passed my first test with him, with only 1 minor error! To be a good driver, it's not enough to just follow instructions and rules. You need to really use your brain, constantly aware of what's going on in and around the car, as well as anticipating what might lie ahead. All while staying calm and composed, so your driving is safe, smooth and comfortable. I could never have achieved that without such excellent and experienced tuition. Thanks again Chris, I'm thrilled to finally have the freedom and independence that a driving licence gives. Couldn't have done it without you!
Hi Kiki, thank you so much for your amazing words. You did everything I asked of you, stuck with it through all the ups and downs. You have shown just how good a driver you are, and now you can enjoy the fruits of your efforts and determination. The memory of your success will stay with me. Enjoy your freedom and the doors that will open for you. Chris
Fantastic experience: I would give 6 stars if I could. Chris is an amazing teacher; he’s extremely patient and calm, and I therefore looked forward to my lessons each week. I passed first time with 1 minor, all thanks to Chris’ amazing approach to teaching. 100% would recommend. Thanks Chris!
Hi Chloe, Thank you so much for such a lovely review. I'm so happy for your achievement yesterday, though it's mixed with a little sorrow as I'm going to miss our lessons. You really have proven what you can achieve, and in exemplary style. You did everything I asked of you, and you deserve the credit for such a strong result. Take care of yourself. I understand your car will be ready as soon as the MOT is done. Enjoy your freedom. I wish you every success in your future. Chris
Fantastic experience: I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mitchell Driving School. My son passed his practical today, so the journey is sadly over for us for now. Pamela is an amazing instructor, with a great sense of humour, combined with a no-nonsense approach which really worked. My son looked forward to his lessons every week, had great fun, and progressed rapidly. She is absolute gold standard, and the results speak for themselves. Looking forward to starting all over again in 2 years’ time with my youngest son.
Thank you for choosing Mitchell Driving School after I taught 2 of your neighbours. I thoroughly enjoyed teaching Scott and the support you have given throughout has helped him enormously. It was lovely meeting all of the family, and although I will miss our lessons, I know how much Scott will enjoy his driving. I'm looking forward to teaching your youngest son in 2 years when it starts all over again! Pamela
Fantastic experience: I would 100% recommend Chris to anyone looking for a driving instructor. He has a very calm approach which made the lessons enjoyable. He has very high standards and sets out to take you, not just to the standard required to pass the test, but beyond that so you really do feel comfortable on the roads once you've passed.
Hi Dan, thank you so much for taking the time to write such an amazing review. It really does mean so much to know that the way I teach, is not only enjoyable, but does exactly what we aim to achieve. Take care, and all the very best to you. Chris
Fantastic experience: I had a bad experience with my first instructor until I found Pamela, she helped me a lot as I was worried because my first language isn’t English but she was helping me understand driving better. Pamela was very patient with me and my mistakes I was making and helped me understand my driving. I grew in confidence with my driving in a short period of time with Pamela and she had helped me achieve my goals. Would highly recommend her I can’t thank her enough.
Thank you Ariana for such a lovely review. I knew we only had 6 weeks to get you ready for your test and beyond but you listened, worked hard and it paid off. You thoroughly deserved this pass and I enjoyed every minute teaching you. Enjoy driving and your new found freedom!
