Our comment from DrivingSchoolsTOP.co.uk about Drive With G:
A patient and highly qualified ADI in the Cheltenham area
Drive With G, led by Graham Davey, is a professional driving school operating across Bishops Cleeve, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, and surrounding villages. Graham is a fully qualified and government-approved Driving Instructor (ADI) who is DBS cleared. His teaching philosophy goes beyond simply helping students pass their test; he is dedicated to instilling the skills and confidence necessary for safe, independent driving for life.
Personalised lessons for nervous and anxious learners
A recurring theme in student feedback is Graham’s exceptional ability to put nervous or anxious learners at ease. Whether for teenagers, adults returning to driving after a long break, or even learners in their 70s, his calm, kind, and reassuring manner helps build self-belief from the very first lesson. Students frequently highlight his patience and his skill in tailoring each lesson to their specific struggles and confidence levels.
Structured teaching and high-tech progress tracking
Lessons are thoroughly planned and student-led, with clear goals set at the start and a recap at the end. Graham utilises a dedicated app that serves as a powerful learning tool, allowing students to track their progress, access helpful videos, diagrams, and resources between lessons. This structured approach ensures that learning is continuous and effective, even for those who cannot practice independently between sessions.
Consistent success and first-time passes
Students consistently praise Graham’s knowledge and his ability to prepare them thoroughly for the practical test. Many reviews mention passing their test on the first attempt, often with only minor errors. His clear explanations of complex manoeuvres and road safety rules, combined with his supportive feedback, result in high satisfaction rates and confident new drivers.

Fantastic experience: We would highly recommend Graham. Our daughter was very nervous about learning to drive. Graham began by helping Olivia feel comfortable in the car and gain her confidence behind the wheel. He tailored the lessons to suit what she was struggling with. He was calm, patient and encouraging and put her at ease when she felt anxious or had a little wobble. Olivia passed her test with 3 minors and it’s like sitting next to a different person now when she drives - I feel happy and confident, knowing she is a good, confident driver. Thanks so much Graham! Rebecca and Pete
Hi Rebecca and Pete. Thank you for your lovely review. It was a pleasure teaching Olivia to learn to drive safely and really pleased she passed and is now a confident driver.
Thanks again.
Kind regards
Graham
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Graham enough ,I couldn’t have chosen a more reassuring driving instructor that put me at ease from day one of our first lesson together. He’s very calm, helpful and has so much patience for anyone who is slightly nervous and lacking in confidence when learning to drive, The app that is provided by Graham is brilliant it enables you to keep track of your progress and useful information for the following lesson. Grahams knowledge has not only helped me to learn to drive but also prepared me fully in the best possible way to pass my test successfully on first attempt. Thanks again Graham for all your help and support.
Hi Donna.
Thank you for your lovely review. It was my pleasure to help you pass your test first time knowing how important it was for you. Safe driving. Graham
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a driving instructor, I cannot recommend Graham highly enough! After a frustrating experience with a previous instructor who was impatient and unclear, I stopped driving for 8 years. I started driving again with Graham in June 2024, and it was a complete turnaround and a fantastic decision! His calm, kind, and supportive approach instantly put me at ease, and his incredible knowledge made every lesson both productive and enjoyable. Graham has a unique talent for explaining things clearly and simply, whether it was parallel parking, navigating roundabouts, or mastering road safety. No matter how many mistakes I made, he never lost his patience and always encouraged me to learn and improve, and I am so proud of my confidence and abilities on the road today! Thanks to Graham’s guidance, I passed my driving test with only 3 minors! He not only helped me overcome my previous bad experience but also equipped me with the skills to be a safe and responsible driver. If you’re looking for an outstanding instructor, Graham is the one. Thank you, Graham – you’re amazing!
Hi Joe.
Can I first say thank you for your lovely and kind review.
I am so pleased that I had the pleasure of getting to know you and help you achieve a fantastic goal of passing your driving test with only a few minors.
You thoroughly deserve it. So well done.
All the best with whatever you do and if you see me please give me a wave.
All the best.
Fantastic experience: Graham is an amazing driving instructor that I would confidently recommend. I was quite nervous to learn to drive but Graham helped me to feel at ease in the car all throughout our lessons. He was very patient and understanding when I found elements of driving difficult to complete and always explained tasks clearly. Graham provided clear communication about lessons and always provided resources to support my learning which was especially helpful because I did not have the opportunity to drive in my own time. Lessons always felt planned and the app he uses was great to track my progress throughout my journey learning to drive. He is a friendly and professional driving instructor who has helped me feel I can drive safely and confidently on my own. Graham cares that his students learn to be safe and confident drivers, providing them with a skillset to drive independently, not just to pass the driving test. Thank you, Graham.
Hi Ashleigh.
Thank you for your very lovely review. I am so glad that you enjoyed your lessons and found them help you become and safe and independent driver.
Fantastic experience: Edit: October 2024 - Our daughter has now ecstatically passed her test with Graham. Graham once again, has been brilliant at what he does, putting enormous thought and care into getting the best from his student. Graham gave Lizzie the confidence to learn to drive well and overcome any hiccups. It is testament to his teaching that she is now happily driving herself around and I am not a nervous wreck! I would unhesitatingly recommend Graham as a driving instructor and can only reiterate my original review below. We are really pleased with the way he taught both our children to drive, and the drivers they have become because of it. June 2023: Graham's patience and support has been exemplary throughout our son's journey from nervous learner driver to obtaining his full UK licence. Right from our first meeting, when Graham came to meet Michael before getting in a car with him, he has been incredibly professional. Graham gives great thought to his teaching, tailoring it to each student and communication is a great strength. Graham seems to be a great judge of character and is evidently dedicated to getting the best out of his students. He's also a cheerful, friendly man who readily puts people at ease. I never hesitate to recommend him as a driving instructor. (And no, we're not related!)
Thank you ever so much for the lovely review Mary. It has been a pleasure to get to know you all during the time I have been teaching Michael. It was always a pleasure and glad we got the result today to allow Michael to be even more independent.
Thanks again
Graham
