Fantastic experience: I had such an excellent experience learning how to drive with Nik. Not only did Nik prepare me for my test, he prepared me for driving in the real world and I feel super confident. He places a huge emphasis on learning in an environment that is forgiving, which is what allows for real learning. Any mistake that was made always followed trying again and again full explanation which allowed for things to click. I can’t reccomend the driving school enough, I would give 6 stars if I could

Fantastic experience: Having Nik as my driving instructor made driving, which I previously found to be an extremely daunting and anxiety inducing task, fun. Due to his exceptional teaching methods, I passed my driving test first time with no minors. His level of patience, kindness, and ability to tailor lessons to fit my learning style created such a comfortable atmosphere and made me excited for lessons. Without a doubt I would recommend anyone who is wanting to drive to learn with Nik, his methods cannot be credited enough and I am forever grateful for the comforting space he was able to create. Thank you so much !!

Fantastic experience: I have loved my driving lessons with Nik. I have just passed my test first time with 2 minors and it’s all thanks to Nik’s teaching. I was really anxious at the start of my lessons in January, I had never been behind the wheel and at 34 thought I would never be able to understand how to drive. Nik helped me overcome my nerves and anxiety and I really enjoyed every lesson. Nik is such a thorough and patient teacher. He makes sure you understand everything practical and technical about diving which really helped me become a better driver. He ensured I always had visual explanations to make it clearer to understand and to enable me to then practice outside of my lessons. Some things took a really long time to grasp but Nik was always calm and helpful in his teaching. I would 100% recommend Nik to anyone in the Ashford area looking for driving lessons, the standard he helps you drive to is really great and I’m so thankful to now be able to drive.

Fantastic experience: I had Nik as my instructor and I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better teacher. Nik is very outgoing and patient which makes you not stress whilst driving. With Nik as my teacher we had great results on my test and I couldn’t have done it without him so therefore I couldn’t point you in any other directions other than to Nik.
