Automatic Driving School: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I've just passed my test, therefore Adrian is a genius! A very kind, thorough and caring teacher, I've had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the process
Fantastic experience: The funniest most patient driving instructor, he cares so much about driving and helped me pass 1st time with 0 faults. When I first started, I hated driving in the rain, sun and dark. After a few lessons I felt so confident and comfortable. He is the best!! Truly deserves 10 stars
Fantastic experience: I started learning with Adrian in October 2024 and passed my driving test this week. I am 31 years old and have really struggled to get driving in the past and decided automatic was the way forwards as I needed to get on the road. My cousin recommended Adrian after she passed with him and I am so glad I listened to her! I am over the moon to finally have my licence and couldn’t recommend a better driving instructor! Adrian is calm and professional. I always felt at ease during my lessons which wasn’t always the case with previous instructors. Thank you so much Adrian, I will be sure to recommend you in the future.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Adrian, he is a fantastic instructor and ensured I felt at ease during all my lessons. His patience and clear explanations helped me overcome my driving anxieties and build confidence behind the wheel. I felt that each lesson was tailored to my needs and what I most needed to improve on which ultimately led to me passing my test first time :)

In fact, you'll probably end up enjoying yourself and looking forward to your driving lessons!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Adrian enough. Passed my test in First attempt today!!!. He has been a really calm and helpful instructor throughout the lessons. I had a really unpleasant and nerve wrecking experience with a previous instructor from a leading driving school and with Adrian it has been the exact opposite. He puts you completely at ease during lessons and also teaches you in a way that you don’t find this experience any more stressful. Highly highly recommend taking lessons with him to anyone who is looking forward to passing the driving test. Thank you so much Adrian for helping me in this journey.

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much to Adrian for making me pass my test first time with him. I did a few lessons before I met Adrian but no one made me feel at ease and gave me so much confidence in my driving. I always felt so relaxed during my lessons.

He always cleaned his car before the lesson and after the lesson,making it safe and clean for all students. I would highly recommend Adrian, he is a great instructor who would make anyone feel comfortable and at ease with their driving. Thank you so much Adrian for making me pass my test and for turning me into a confident driver.
