Fantastic experience: When I started my driving lessons with Jim I had zero experience behind the wheel of a car and very little confidence about trying it. Thanks to his patient, methodical approach to teaching I've passed first time within 12 months of starting. I can't recommend Jim highly enough!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend Jim higher enough, from the start of my journey all the way up until the end he was amazing. Jim is a lovely man and just wants what’s best for you, he always made me feel comfortable and someone I could just get along with, he was very patient and his teaching skills are excellent. I’m so glad that Jim was recommended to me because I wouldn’t have wanted to be taught by anyone else, if you’re thinking about learning to drive Jim is definitely your man. I wish Jim nothing but the best in the future, thank you for everything.

Fantastic experience: My experience with Jim has been nothing but positive. The care and compassion Jim has shown me throughout my driving journey has been second to none. I truly believe the bespoke package that Jim delivers is like no other out there due to making every lesson challenging yet rewarding, even with students (like myself) that struggle with dyslexia. Jim has shaped my driving to such a high level that even months before my test I knew more about driving than my friends that had already passed. This was clearly shown by me passing my test with only 1 minor which was in big part due to Jims specialist teaching.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Jim enough. Felt at ease since day 1 and the process felt a breeze. I would say I’ve come away with not just a pass but lessons and experience I can take on for life.

Fantastic experience: Awesome driving instructor, I was a driver that was all about going and not checking it was safe to do so or doing in a safe manner and Jim dialled me back to make sure I am checking before(and during) doing... And best of all, he is a really nice guy. Thanks Jim

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Jim, he is a fantastic instructor. Jim is able to tailor the lessons to your specific needs and creates a calming, reassuring atmosphere. There is never a boring lesson with Jim! He is funny, approachable and most of all encouraging. After waiting so long for my test due to Covid cancellations my confidence was low but Jim was there to support me and boost my confidence! Thanks Jim it’s been a pleasure to have you as a mentor.

Fantastic experience: Jim really helped me achieve everything i could have wanted when learning to drive. He was patient, understanding and gave me the courage i needed to be able to pass my test confidently and positively. He broke down aspects of driving into smaller sections in order for me to understand them easier and boosted my confidence in every aspect of driving!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Jim as an instructor This time last year I was really nervous about driving, I had zero confidence and Jim was patient and helped me raise my confidence levels and lessen my anxiety when driving. His humour and calmness helped me settle and I really looked forward to my lessons. Along the journey Jim has helped me improve my confidence in other areas of my life. What he offers is very rare, he is a supportive instructor who will tailor driving lessons to support each person as an individual. Cannot recommend him enough
