Fantastic experience: I couldn't have passed without Katie! Katie has a real, calming presence in the car next to you and strikes a great balance between making sure you don't continue to make the same mistakes and providing clear, constructive help and information! I would highly recommend to learners of all abilities.

Peter Dudley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Katie is a very calm, supportive and encouraging instructor. My daughter really enjoyed her lessons and passed her test first time with Katie’s support. Katie was very responsive to us when arranging lessons and also flexible on timings to accommodate other commitments. We would thoroughly recommend Katie!

KT Driving Instructor

Thank you for a lovely review:) I’m so pleased Olivia passed today everything came together and I’ve always been very impressed with the handling and confidence that she displays when driving her own car. Also well done to you as Parents enabling her practice and getting her to such a good standard:)

Imogen Wade 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Katie is a wonderful driving instructor, she is the right balance of calm, genuine and relaxed whilst also providing a learning structure to make each lesson worthwhile. I always knew my goals, my weak points, my successes and everything was reviewed so I always had a clear idea of my progress. Katie was excellent at teaching me techniques for manoeuvres, road safety, and building my confidence with driving. I had 5 driving instructors before but never managed to pass, however Katie gave me the push to get there! Thank you Katie.

Josh Porter 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Being a bit late to getting around to passing my test, I've had a fair few on an off driving instructors over the years, but didn't make much headway. This year I decided to get it sorted and came across Katie by chance whilst browsing around on Google. She took me from a total non-driver to pass competent in just a handful of months, fitting in sporadic lessons around my busy schedule. I was so impressed with just how good she is at analysing her students and finding the most effective way to teach them that I've already referred her on to everyone I know who still needs to pass. She is a warm an charismatic person who makes you feel super comfortable and explains things in such a way that it just clicks. Thank you again Katie, you are the best!

KT Driving Instructor

It was an absolute pleasure to teach you Josh I’ll especially miss our deep discussions ( always good to be able to drive safely even when distracted) a well deserved pass and just in time for Christmas :)

Fantastic experience: Thank you Katie for getting me through my driving test 1st time! Your patients and tuition were fantastic.

Tallulah Chouls 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie is an amazing instructor, As quite a nervous driver originally Katie made me feel completely at ease and not worried to make any small mistakes. At just over 10 lessons I was feeling Test ready. Katie always takes you on various routes and get the opportunity to encounter all different scenarios. Would highly highly recommend Katie to anyone looking to learn to drive!

KT Driving Instructor

Tallulah you’ve done so incredibly well Ive been so impressed with your perseverance, there’s certainly no hint of nerves now and it’s been an absolute pleasure teaching you.

Liz Stevens 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie was an amazing instructor. She explained everthing really clearly /understandably and also ensured I felt comfortable and happy while learing :)

George Spooner 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie is an very patient, professional and qualified driving instructor that lead me to pass my test to very high standard with only one mark against me in my test. Katie's tuition was very broad and comprehensive not just teaching me to pass my test but teaching me real world driving skill. Lessons include everything from basic driving handling and manoeuvring of the car, following that I was given road experience in built up areas with red routes, dual carriageways, country lanes and even the M25. This level of experience was so valuable in building my skill and confidence. All of what I've learnt with Katie means I was confident and capable on the road from the moment I passed my test, her tution is worth every penny for anyone looking to not just pass but really learn to drive.

KT Driving Instructor

Thank you so much for such a lovely review, you’ve been a pleasure to teach and you took on every bit of learning and incorporated it into your driving. A very well deserved first time pass :)

Vishnukoban Satkunabalan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie was super helpful. I contacted her last minute for some urgent help before my practical driving test that was going to happen in a few days time. She squeezed me into her busy schedule, explained everything clearly, and ensured that I passed. Having not driven for a year, I was pretty rusty and Katie patiently guided me through with great enthusiasm. Would definitely recommend :)

Ryan Taylor 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: AMAZING INSTRUCTOR! felt super comfortable every lesson gives lots of support and makes you feel confident whilst driving. Katie gives constructive feedback which helps with progression when driving and helps you to recognise your mistakes to improve.

Fantastic experience: Great teacher. I am from Ukraine and I needed to relearn how to drive on the left side. So Katie helped me feel confident. And Katie is an amazing person with whom it was very pleasant driving and communicate. I recommend to everyone.

KT Driving Instructor

Dear Vlada,

Fantastic experience: We were very lucky to find Katie who was so accommodating & helpful, finding time to fit in lessons, particularly the afternoon before his test….he passed first time. Would highly recommend Katie & will be using her services again for my other son.

KT Driving Instructor

Hi Zoe,
I missed you kind review, but I hope your enjoying not having to drive Jack around and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kevin Currie 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie did an outstanding job teaching my son to drive in a short period of time and scheduled around all his other commitments. The 2 hour lessons are an excellent idea, as we saw significantly faster progress than with previous children and other instructors. We really appeciated the final 3 hour lesson, taking him around the test routes. Katie made a huge contribution to his skills, awareness and confidence which resulted in him passing first time.

KT Driving Instructor

Thank you so much Kevin, when a Client passes first time that’s fantastic but even more commendable when it’s at a test centre they don’t know terribly well, that means Theo is definitely ready for his lifetime of Driving:)

Bea Fort 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie was an extremely calm and supportive driving instructor, i’m so glad I was able to learn to drive with her. Every lesson was very well structured and thought though, which built upon previous lessons and allowed me to progress quickly. Katie ensured she always gave feedback on my driving, constructively highlighting areas which needed improvement but also pointing out things which I did well. Not only was Katie teaching me the fundamentals of driving, but also made me consider what to do in different scenarios, which has made me feel prepared for almost anything! I can’t emphasise how much Katie’s thorough lessons have helped me gain confidence on the road for every situatiuon i’m put in now and also in the future :) Thank you very much!!

KT Driving Instructor

You really deserved that pass Bea, you’ve taken on board everything I’ve taught you and in a relatively short period of time. Enjoy your lifetime of Driving.
Katie:)

Jonny Jamison 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie was an excellent driving instructor, who offered everything you could possibly ask for when learning. She explained everything you could be asked about in the test and even prepared you for situations after having passed, making sure that you are fully informed for life after your test. Katie is always calm in the car, allowing her students to feel safe and secure at all times. As well as being a very positive person, she constructively informs you in ways in which you can improve and is always willing to go over things if you feel unsure. Katie will always find a time that works for your schedule, even taking in lessons in not so favourable hours. It has been a pleasure to learn under Katie and I couldn't feel more prepared for life as a driver. Thank you very much Katie... I couldn't recommend you enough!

KT Driving Instructor

Hi Jonny, thank you so much for such a lovely review, you were an absolute pleasure to teach and I'm so glad that you passed first time, it was well deserved. Keep that level head of yours as it will serve you well in your future driving career and life. Katie :)

Hannah Dehdashty 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a structured, personal approach to your driving lessons, I would 100% recommend Katie. She was extremely helpful in running through parts of my driving, pushing me out of my comfort zone once I was confident enough to really make sure that I could drive safely even after I passed my test. This included driving in the dark and driving in built-up areas in heavy traffic situations.The lessons are very focused, leaving it up to you (and by recommendation) to decide what you want to work on. And any worries you may have about your driving are dealt with. Also really good to have a conversation with, she's someone I would suggest to anybody who struggles with driving anxiety. All in all, a quality, professional service.

KT Driving Instructor

Hannah thank you so much for your review, you were an absolute pleasure to teach and you also showed me how the dedication, courage and perseverance you brought with you to every lesson got you the result that you wanted and deserved :)

Freddie 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great Teacher, identifies weak points and really helps to develop them. Only took a few lessons to pass, with how thorough and effective Katie’s lessons are.

KT Driving Instructor

Thank you Freddie, you worked really hard and deserved that pass :)

Evan Hine 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie was extremely professional, helpful and calm during lessons. She puts lots of outside effort into helping new drivers build their confidence and get comfortable at the wheel. Would highly recommend. 5 stars.

KT Driving Instructor

Hi Evan, I must have missed your kind review, I hope your enjoying your freedom and best wishes for the future:)

Alex Boorman 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Katie as a driving instructor. She's very understanding, always stays calm and never fails to calm your nerves if you start to tense up whilst driving. She knows exactly what the examiners are looking for in your test and teaches you excellently to pass the test in good time. When my test was coming up Katie was also more than happy to make time for me to do extra lessons as well as taking me all the way to my test area in Slough to practice multiple times. I had lessons for about 6 months (interrupted by covid as well) and passed first time with 1 minor so can't thank Katie enough for our lessons.

Kim Raine 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: my experience with Katie was excellent, asking me how i would like to learn exercises and what works best for me, she always made time to get that extra lesson in and to push me to be my best.

KT Driving Instructor

Thanks Freddie, Happy Driving :)

2p4u Ollieh2312 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie taught me very well and was extremely clear with what I had to do to pass. She would always make time for me when I needed additional lessons near my test and successfully got me passed first time. Would highly recommend.

KT Driving Instructor

You worked really hard, especially as it was at Tolworth, well done :)

James Morris 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Katie has been a super helpful and understanding driving instructor throughout the whole process. I’d had a year and a half gap since the last time I’d drove and Katie really helped me lean back into things so quickly and get my courage back. She’s very patient and calm (very different and much better than my original instructor). Katie takes you through the steps at a pace that you can a manage but still knows when to fully take a step back and also explains carefully anything you need to work on. After 3 months of regular lessons with Katie I passed and have loved the freedom it’s given me. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and I’m so happy with my experience with her, I’d recommend her to anybody and everybody.

KT Driving Instructor

Thank you so much James, it was an absolute pleasure to teach you and I’m so glad your enjoying the freedom that Driving gives you :)
