Automatic Annie Driving School

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructor, first time pass, made me feel so confident, she is so warm and friendly!

Fantastic experience: The best decision i made was when i called Annie for driving lessons. She made me feel so comfortable on the phone I knew that I wanted her as my driving instructor, I was so blessed when she was able to fit me in. Her teaching techniques were so professional I just knew I was lucky to have her as my teacher. She really is a gem. Her patience and dedication to her students shows as I PASSED WITH ONE FAULT. I have also gained a friend. Thank you Annie. Blessed

Fantastic experience: Lovely driving instructor, very encouraging and considerate. Passed first time and she supported me the whole way through and gave me all the lessons I needed with no trouble. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Annie is a fantastic and well experienced in instructing , I had 2 previous instructors beforehand and struggled with driving , my confidence and how I was taught , but Annie helped and was very adaptive to instruction that worked for me and gave me the confidence and skills I needed, I felt completely ready when I took my test and couldn't be happier , it was a pleasure to be taught by Annie and il miss our conversations and wicked sense of humor , thanks Annie !

Fantastic experience: I've had the great pleasure of being taught how to drive by Annie who is not only an absolutely fantastic instructor, she is also lovely company. It has been really nice to sit in her car and chat, as well as learning to drive obviously! It's not felt like a chore, and she's gradually increased the complexity and given me more independence, while I've always known she's been there to keep us both safe. Her car is great to learn in, it is comfortable, automatic which I wanted, just the right size, and full of all of the features you'd hope for in a modern car. Unfortunately for me I'm moving house soon and will be a couple of hours away, so won't be able to do my test with Annie, but she's got me to the point that I need to be at in order to do a test soon. She really is very highly skilled, and I know that many instructors won't be anywhere near as good as Annie is at her job. I highly recommend Annie and know I made the right choice in picking her. Thanks for everything Annie!

Fantastic experience: Annie is a very easy to follow and patient instructor. I barely knew how to use an automatic car before starting lessons with her but within a few months i had lots of confidence and was comfortable with driving the car. I was prepared thoroughly for the test with mock tests covering multiple routes. Passed first time as well.

Fantastic experience: Annie is amazing. A friendly and communicative instructor who is meticulous when it comes to teaching the skills needed to pass the test and to drive safely afterwards. I passed first time with Annie and could not be happier.

Fantastic experience: Annie truly is a brilliant instructor. Before I started my lessons with Annie I was very anxious about learning to drive and had lost all my confidence. However with Annie she really put me at ease and I passed first time with only 3 minors. Thank you so much.

Fantastic experience: I just passed my test first time and I couldn’t have done it without Annie. I was a very nervous learner but she always made me feel so comfortable and made sure to push me outside of my comfort zone. Her lessons helped shape me into a more confident driver and I now believe in myself so much more. Annie is one of the kindest people I know and I couldn’t imagine my lessons with anyone else. Xx

Fantastic experience: Annie is an excellent and very experienced instructor! She is absolutely lovely and has a fabulous automatic car which is very efficient to drive which made driving much easier for me. I was so pleased be progressing very quickly in my lessons with Annie after an initial struggle with my driving. I found my lessons a really positive experience. I’m dyslexic and felt quite overwhelmed learning to drive however Annie explained herself very well and I really understood each skill and felt confident with her. Annie gave me the confidence and skills I needed to be a safe, knowledgeable and confident driver. I took my test at Knaresborough test centre and passed first time with 0 faults! Thank you so much Annie, I’m over the moon & couldn’t have done it without you!

Fantastic experience: Just passed my test first time with zero minors! Annie is a great driving instructor who really cares about her students becoming confident and safe drivers. Lessons were always enjoyable and her knowledge and kindness made learning to drive a really positive experience.

Fantastic experience: Just passed first time with Annie ! She is a great instructor would recommend to everyone, I couldn’t drive at all when I started and now I’m very confident thank you Annie

Fantastic experience: Annie was great! I've been driving a long time in the States, but there was tons to learn about the UK rules of the road and Annie was a fantastic teacher. I passed on the first try with no driving faults. She adjusts her teaching to your needs, and knows how to help you improve your driving, as well as the ins and outs of passing the UK driving test. Couldn't recommend her more!

Fantastic experience: I wouldn’t want to learn with anyone else there’s no one like Annie! She is an amazing instructor who dedicated so much time to make sure I had enough skills to be able to pass. Incredibly kind and felt so comfortable learning with her! Thank you Annie! X

Fantastic experience: I am unbelievably grateful to Annie. I didn't really know if I had it in me to ever pass but with Annie's excellent tuition and encouragement I managed to pass first time with Automatic Annie. She's made me into a confident and safe driver. Thanks for your patience and for making lessons fun. I'll genuinely miss them. I would recommend Automatic Annie to anyone learning to drive an automatic. See you soon for Pass Plus!

Fantastic experience: Great instructor passed first time with only 3 faults - Highly recommend, thanks Annie

Fantastic experience: Annie is an absolute legend. Had a couple of bum starts with other instructors but Annie got me through passing first time. Super lovely and super knowledgeable. Can’t recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Annie is an amazing driving instructor I passed today 1st time thank you annie xx

Fantastic experience: Just passed my driving test first time after having lessons with Annie! She is extremely thorough and helpful with her teaching to ensure I knew as much as possible! She was also extremely patient as well as I was nervous at first, but I soon picked up confidence! I would recommend Annie to anyone learning automatic as she made the whole process calm and smooth! Thankyou xx

Fantastic experience: I have had a greta experience learning to drive again with Annie. I have had driving anxiety and avoided driving for ten years since getting my licence, after my lessons with Annie, I can now say I am confidently driving around in my very own car. Annie is so knowledgeable and it's easy to understand her instructions. I am so thankful to her.

Fantastic experience: My experience couldn't have been better from start to finish. I was excited each week to get in Annie's car and learn, knowing I was being taught exactly what I needed to know in a manner I fully understood. Which is why I passed first time. 10/10

Fantastic experience: Passed first time with Annie having previously struggled with driving. Annie is a clear and informative instructor and not only teaches you to pass your test but also how to be a confident and safe driver overall. Would strongly recommend learning with Annie

Fantastic experience: I have just passed my test first time, and I couldn't have done it without Annie's excellent tuition and support! Annie is a brilliant instructor, who is really focused not only on making sure you pass, but also making sure you're a lifelong safe driver. Annie has put a lot of time and effort into perfecting her teaching style and techniques and it shows and pays off. Annie makes sure that you understand the techniques required to drive safely and correctly and is extremely thorough in ensuring you have an understanding, not only of how to execute these techniques, but also *why* they are the safest way to drive. If something isn't sticking, she will find another way to teach it, until it does. It's a testament to Annie's skill and experience that I felt calm and prepared on my test day, despite being a fairly nervous person with very little prior driving experience. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Annie for refresher lessons, I had previously learned in a manual car a few years ago, and was a very nervous driver. I used to dread driving but now only a few lessons in I’m starting to feel more confident and, dare I say, even enjoying driving! This isn’t only due to the ease of automatic driving but also Annie’s teaching style and personality. She is friendly, supportive, knowledgeable and thorough with the theory etc. Annie helps me to challenge myself (in a productive way) to go outside my comfort zone which I really needed, but at the same time she makes it clear there is always the option to say if I’m feeling uncomfortable or need to go back a step. When I make an error it somehow doesn’t feel like the end of the world like it used to! Highly recommend Annie, she’s a great instructor, and I already feel like I’ll be back on the road in no time.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Annie, I wish I had lessons with her to start with, I’m back to learning after a few years off and I was very nervous and with in ten minutes I was relaxed and feeling confident. ,Annie really brings out the best in me , I now come home eager for my next lesson.

Fantastic experience: Very good experience. I was afraid of driving before I started with Annie - I had some hours of lessons with other instructor but I was very confused of road as well as stressed. Annie helped me build my confidence gradually and I passed first time with only two minor faults. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Learning to drive with Annie has been an amazing experience. I 10/10 would recommend!! When I first started with Annie, I had no experience in driving and I was really nervous but Annie helped me overcome that fear. I passed first time with Annie as she helped me become a more confident driver and helped me understand the theory part of driving as well as the practical. She's extremely thorough and made sure that I always had a better understanding and knowledge of driving and the roads. Annie always made sure that her car was clean, safe and up to a high standard, even during COVID restrictions. It was honestly a pleasure to be her pupil and I will definitely be recommending her to friends and family too.

Fantastic experience: I was fearful when it came to driving, I began with Annie after a few manual lessons, and I was very reluctant to start learning to drive again. However, Annie was extremely helpful and encouraging; after a while, Annie motivated me to become a much more confident driver. I recommend her to anyone considering Automatic Driving. Thank you, Annie.

Fantastic experience: Learning to drive with Annie had been an absolute pleasure and a wonderful experience. I could not recommend Annie enough! I came to Annie after around 13 weeks of manual driving experience, starting with her right before a lockdown, then continuing lessons when it was safer to do so. Annie always ensured the car was clean and made learning during covid times as safe as she could. Annie is very thorough in her teaching of driving, first explaining the theoretical aspect to the lesson, making sure you understand it, then actually taking you to areas where you could practice the new subject. I cannot thank Annie enough for helping me pass! I recommend her to anyone considering learning Automatic Driving.

Fantastic experience: 10/10 would recommend Annie! my confidence with learning to drive wasn't the best at first but within a few lessons Annie soon understood my way of learning with the use of her amazing amount of knowledge my confidence grew massively and I started to develop a new found love for driving, Annie has been amazing with pushing me out of my comfort zone but never more than she knew I could handle. and she has so much faith in me a lot more than I had in myself half the time. She also put my mind at ease with reassuring me that if I was to make a mistake that it can be fixed and not to beat myself up. I think it's also worth mentioning that every lesson was very COVID-safe, the car was thoroughly cleaned each time which definitely helped to put my mind at ease. All round Annie is amazing and I very much looked forward to my lesson every week, will miss them now I have passed, thank you again Annie - your amazing. :)

Fantastic experience: I was really nervous to start my driving lessons again after a couple of attempts. Annie was really reassuring and helped me to grow my confidence massively. Thanks to Annie I passed my test first time!

Fantastic experience: Annie is absolutely fantastic, encouraging and very knowledgeable. I had been putting off getting my license for far too long but Annie gave me the push I needed and I passed my test first time which I am over the moon about! Thank you Annie, and I look forward to my motorway lessons!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Annie enough! She made driving for me comfortable and fun she also always helped me to feel confident. All my lessons were during COVID and were super COVID safe which put my mind at rest and made learning at a time like this so much better. Thank you Annie!

Fantastic experience: Passed my test a couple of months ago with Annie, it took a while due to Covid19, but I now have my own little car to run around in, it's much safer than being on the bus. I enjoyed all my lessons as Annie made me feel confident and comfortable, she was very patient and professional and helped me cope with my nerves. Thank you Annie

Fantastic experience: 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!! Honestly I can't recommend Annie's driving school highly enough, learning to drive with her was a fantastic experience! She's so easy to get along with, we had a great rapport and my driving lessons were a genuinely enjoyable time. It's immediately apparent that Annie has loads of experience and she's very thorough - I felt really well-prepared for my test when I took it recently, and passed first time. I think it's also worth mentioning that every lesson was very COVID-safe, the car was thoroughly cleaned each time and I could tell that the safety of all her students was a top priority. I got loads of good advice from Annie, not just on how to pass my test but on how to be a good driver in general, and I still follow all her tips and tricks now that I'm driving solo! She helped build my confidence but made sure I was aware of all my mistakes, which was exactly what I needed to break through my nervousness around starting to learn. Would recommend to absolutely anyone wanting to learn auto - total beginners or not! Thanks so much Annie!!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Annie is a great instructor, firm while very perceptive. She is particularly helpful and understanding from a female driver’s point of view. Annie will show you her tips, motivate you and help build up your confidence in driving. She has a great sense of humour too. Really enjoyed the lessons and I passed with Annie within a very short period of time!

Fantastic experience: Great driving instructor and really friendly and easy to get on with really helped me through my driving test which I am dyslexic so I found really difficult but she got me through it

Fantastic experience: Having had absolutely no driving experience whatsoever, I really wanted to make sure I chose the right instructor for me.

I would highly recommend learning to drive with Automatic Annie!!!
