Hannah Kenny 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started lessons with Chris after three years of not driving, and as someone who is usually very anxious behind the wheel, I felt so at ease when I began lessons with him. Chris is extremely patient and takes the stress out of learning - after only a month I felt so much more confident and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor!

Angela Besliu 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am grateful for the way Chris taught me to drive! I had an attempt to learn how to drive 2 years ago with another driving instructor and it was unsuccessful. My biggest problem was hazard perception and accelerating , driving faster on dual carriageways and motorways. With the patience, encouragement and tailored approach Chris managed to teach me how to drive safely! Thank you very much!

Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing driving instructor and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone. He taught me to be confident in my driving and believe in myself. Chris is a lovely person who pushes and encourages you to be the best you can be, no matter how many mistakes you make along the way. For someone who was quite anxious about driving I decided to learn automatic and it was the best decision I ever made and with his complete support and the skills he taught me, I passed first time which I could have never imagined. Thank you for everything Chris! :)

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend Chris enough! As someone that previously failed 2 times before, my confidence was non existent. Chris managed to turn it around, brought my confidence back, helped me understand manoeuvres in an easy to remember way. Really great approach to teaching, I really could not recommend enough especially if you’re someone that is nervous about driving!

Fantastic experience: Chris has been teaching me to drive for a year and a half , on and off , due to the pandemic. Today I finally passed my test, something at the age of 36 I thought I’d never do! When I had my first lesson, that was the first time I had ever sat in the drivers seat in any car, I was very nervous but Chris was very professional, calm and polite and has been an amazing instructor. I’d highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn in an automatic!

Fantastic experience: I had done 3 tests before coming to Chris for lessons. This had massively affected my confidence with driving and I genuinely thought I would never pass; today, I passed first time with Chris, with 0 minors! Chris is calm, patient and genuinely cares about every one of his students. I have dyslexia and the techniques he uses with imagery and the way he explains things, is great. Would recommend Chris to everyone! Thank you Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing driving instructor. I really struggled with anxiety with 4 failed tests before coming to him. He made me feel so calm, confident and collected at the wheel and got me through my driving test first time with him without any minors! I’m so shocked as I never thought I’d be able to do it and believed I was destined for life on the bus. Chuffed as I’ve picked up a skill for life. Couldn’t recommend anyone better!!

Bethany Buck 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: First of all never met such a friendly, genuine man! Taking into consideration I have difficulty hearing, Chris always calmed my nerves and made me feel at ease behind the wheel. Before learning to drive with Chris I had already tried driving with 2 other company’s and didn’t feel I was getting very far at all. Chris always found the time and gave me 100% support whenever I needed it. I wouldn’t be driving if it wasn’t for him, so for that I am very grateful. Thanks again Chris!!

Fantastic experience: Chris is a very understanding instructor. He knows how to put people at ease and will talk through all the instructions that he gives to you. He is very polite, courteous and has only your wellbeing in his mind when you are on a lesson. He tries everything he can to help you if you have a problem in re-arranging a lesson at short notice. He works well with people of all ages and people with special needs, nervous pupils and puts them all at ease. Chris is very good at understanding your needs and helping you to overcome your nerves. Would like to thank Chris from the bottom of my heart for all the help and feedback he has given to me since May. Will be the one instructor that i would highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn in an automatic car.

Simbala Labisma 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Chris is professional, dedicated and extremely hardworking. He is always punctual for lessons, flexible to meet your needs and keeps you updated. He is a true gentleman and just a lovely guy. He has the patience of a Saint and I truly believe he has the skills to teach the most nervous of learners to drive safely and ultimately pass their test (I should know, I was one of them!). Chris is kind, personable, caring and very professional. He explains ‘things’ fully and clearly so you can completely get to grips with any given situation. He answered endless questions from me, always with a smile on his face. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris to anyone whom is wanting to learn how to drive safely and pass their test. Chris will put you forward for your test when you’re ready and driving to the required standard. He works tirelessly to help you iron out any errors and works on the areas you feel less confident in. He prepares for each and every lesson, customised to you as an individual and moves you on to the next ‘thing’ when he feels you’re ready. He encourages you and gives you confidence to succeed. In my eyes he is and always will be a Legend! Thank you, Chris, for everything.
