Carla's Driving School

Fantastic experience: Carla is a wonderful driving instructor! She’s so good at putting you at ease and being patient, meaning that her lessons are always enjoyable while teaching you to be both a safe and confident driver for your test and beyond. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to learn or improve their driving, she’s amazing!

Fantastic experience: What an amazingly patient, kind, thoughtful and effective teacher Carla is. Both our children (one boy, one girl) were nervous for different reasons and both thrived and passed first time. Just child number 3 to go now! :)

Fantastic experience: I always struggled with learning to drive after a couple bad experiences with driving instructors. Carla made it very easy to learn and gave me loads of confidence so I could pass easily.

Fantastic experience: The best instructor there is in reading, definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Carla enough!! She has such a patient and friendly approach to teaching, each lesson is led by the student/ tailored individually to what I needed to improve on and she didn’t just prepare me for my test but also to be a safe and confident driver.

Fantastic experience: Carla taught my twin daughters to drive and both passed first time within 3 weeks of each other. Both girls enjoyed her approach and that she did not teach to pass the test but taught to be good and safe drivers. I would highly recommend Carla to anyone looking for a driving instructor.

Fantastic experience: Carla is absolutely brilliant, can’t thank her enough for her guidance and her patience.

Fantastic experience: Carla was very helpful and informative about everything I’d need to know to get my driving license. Within a short amount of time I had passed my practical first time. I would highly recommend Carla for anyone wanting to learn how to drive.

Fantastic experience: A little late on the review. Managed to pass with on two faults about a month ago thanks to Carla's teaching. I never felt stressed during a lesson and the speed at which I felt I was developing as a driver was quite astonishing. I remember learning so much about clutch control, open and closed junctions, break control, steering, coasting, etc. in just a single lesson. I was told by people it wasn't the best investment, but it was most definitely a much better investment than another 6 months of painful waiting because I didn't have these lessons

Fantastic experience: We can highly recommend Carla as a driving instructor. Our son, Freddie, had never had a lesson in his life and Carla got him test ready in less than 20 lessons. And he passed 1st time. She was perfect for Freddie, who has ADHD, as she was calm and understanding of his requirements. If you're looking for a very good and experienced instructor, look no further. We hope that our next son wants to learn to drive, as we know who we will be sending him to. Carla was worth every penny spent. Thank you so much Carla, Freddie will miss you.

Fantastic experience: Carla is a fantastic teacher, she helped me with my nerves through out our lessons, and help me pass as quickly as I could as I need it for a promotion at work. I shall miss our lessons together we’re we used to talk non stop threw out, I can’t thank you enough Carla for helping me pass after putting it off for so many years

Fantastic experience: I took 3 refresher driving lessons with Carla as I hadn't driven since my test 5 years ago, and was feeling nervous about buying my first car. Carla was fantastic! She was very calm and patient, which helped me feel relaxed and build my confidence to get back into driving. Would thoroughly recommend to anybody! Thank you Carla!

Fantastic experience: Carla is a fantastic instructor who is so thorough when teaching all aspects of driving and explaining concepts that seem so confusing with a variety of teaching styles. I would 100% recommend Carla to anyone who is looking for a friendly instructor who offers a professional service and I cannot thank Carla enough for everything she has done for me

Fantastic experience: Carla was a fantastic driving instructor who supported me all the way through!

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend Carla more! Passed with her first time & she’s fun, so friendly & makes you feel extremely comfortable during lessons - she even makes the most anxious drivers feel at ease! ;) One of the best instructors around.

Fantastic experience: Had an amazing experience with Carla, Her method of explaining basic rules, tips and tricks in the most relatable way helped me to pass my test. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: Throughout my driving lessons Carla was kind and patient with me and helped me achieve a pass first time!! I highly recommend her for anyone looking to learn to drive. -Lily :)

Fantastic experience: Brilliant driving instructor was fantastic with my nervous daughters, highly recommend

Fantastic experience: When I first started I didn't really want to drive but thanks to Carla I have loved driving since. I never would have passed if it wasn't for Carla. I highly recommend any that looks for an instructor to choose Carla

Fantastic experience: My son passed first time with Carla. I know he was so nervous the first time he met her but she completely put him at ease and he came home and said - mum I really like her. She is patient, kind explains things really clearly and was very supportive of us giving Archie lots of practice in his car outside of the lessons. We can’t thank her enough for everything she did to get him ready and through his test. We have already recommended her to loads of Archie’s friends.

Fantastic experience: Carla was an amazing instructor. She was recommended by a friend and I can definitely see why. She makes sure to explain everything until you understand and pushed you more each lesson to become a better driver than you thought you could. I only had lessons with her for a month and a half before my test and I managed to pass first time! I can’t thank her enough , she was amazing!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Carla's Driving School. Carla was extremely accomodating and understanding of my daughters situation during lockdown and her subsequent knee surgery and went above and beyond to ensure she had continuity of lessons throughout. Carla also teaches at a high level and as an overall consequence my daughter passed first time! Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Carla is amazing! I started lessons with her as a complete beginner and she helped me to pass my test first time. She’s a lovely lady who is calm and patient and I would recommend her to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Very pleased with my daughter’s progression & confidence whilst being taught by Carla. A great driving instructor with a lovely manner & patience. I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend to anyone, especially those who struggle with nerves as had endless patience with me enabling me to feel safe and confident!

Fantastic experience: Carla taught my daughter to drive in 2019 and she passed first time. Carla is very professional and a great instructor

Fantastic experience: Carla kindly "adopted" my son as a pupil when his driving instructor had to retire for health reasons. He says she was much better, especially at teaching techniques for manoeuvres. A pass has been achieved, with grateful thanks. Highly recommended!

Positive experience: Very good. Helped my son to pass first time!
