Fantastic experience: I had 2 other previous instructors but Adrian was by far been the best. As someone who has bad anxiety Adrian was great and explained things in a clear way that was easy to understand and was very patient. He was excellent at teaching me to become a confident driver and to be aware of everything you would need to know to pass the test,which I did! would 100% recommend Adrian as a instructor

Negative experience: He is the worst. I have just told him that I need a continuous driving rather than driving 5 mins after the first 1 hour session since I think I can learn that way more easily. But, he was not open for any communication and feedback from me. He was also very rude and suggested that I find another instructor. Ridiculous. I am not a first time, student driver and yet he caused me more stress which I did not have any in the past. Avoid!!!

Thanks very much for your review. It seems you didn't "Respect my decision." After all.

Hopefully the reader of this review can read between the lines and replace the statement "very rude" with, he didn't let me do what i wanted.

You had a single hour lesson. Stating that you only drove for 5 mins isnt true. Otherwise why would you even ask for a 2nd lesson.

Before booking a 2nd hour you requested that I let you drive my car for long periods without my intervention. You clearly don't need a driving instructor then do you?

When I said no to your request (with a full explanation), you felt compelled to write this review.

I'm sorry to read that my rejection caused you stress!

Fantastic experience: Adrian helped me with some refresher lessons, as I am from abroad and wasn't feeling confident to drive on this side of the road. Adrian was incredibly useful, patient and empathetic. I would definitely recommend him for any type of lesson, best instructor I've ever had!

Thanks for the review. It was a pleasure helping you gain the confidence and experience to help you to drive in the UK. It's always great to assist someone who has considered their and other road users safety before driving abroad.

Haridas T.K 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I approached Adrian after failing multiple attempts. He helped me to gain tremendous confidence by covering all areas where learner driver fails. I passed the test on my first attempt under his training. He is one of the best instructors in Edinburgh without any doubt. He not only teaches us how to pass but how to take care of our car in a best way and how to 'be a good driver'. I would highly recommend Adrian for every one who look for an instructor in and around Edinburgh. Thank you very much for your support Adrian

Negative experience: doesn't pick up the call :(

Im not sure if your serious. But if you can't understand why a driving instructor "doesn't pick up the call." Perhaps you need to do some driving theory before considering driving lessons.

I do have an answer machine , a website contact form and an email address if I am unable to answer at the time of your calling.

Adam Alton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: After a bad experience with another company I chose to go with Adrian for a refresher lesson. He was incredibly reassuring and I quickly overcame nerves developed from the other company. Adrian is an excellent people person and knows how to adapt quickly to different needs in different situations. If you're able to get lessons with Adrian you will be in safe hands and you'll be a confident driver in no time.

Fantastic experience: Of all the driving instructors I've learned with, Adrian is unquestionably the best. He is patient and understanding. He truly helped me succeed in areas I didn't think I would. He not only assisted me in passing my driving test, but he also made it possible for me to develop my driving skills and confidence to allow me to be a better driver. An added bonus is the 10/10 jokes:)))

Fantastic experience: Passed first time with Adrian after a semi-intensive course and couldn't recommend him more. Extremely patient and provides easy to understand explanations. His own high standards will ensure you are very well prepared for your test while his friendliness will keep you relaxed even on long days. Also always available to answer questions between lessons.

Fantastic experience: He is the only instructor I have had, so i can only compare him to what I have heard of other instructors, and what I was told to expect from an Instructor. He far surpassed my expectations, he is professional, and a great person to be tutored by. Thank you very much.

Taylor Mcculloch 8 years ago

Negative experience: Bad communication. He took 2 days to get back to me when I was trying to discuss dates, which was not helpful. He was also very rude and suggested that I find another instructor. Ridiculous. I am a first time, student driver and caused me more stress than it was worth.

Hi Taylor, I'm disappointed to hear you have had a stressful experience.

If you look back over our communication since early January, my responces where prompt and often within an hour. I explained my availability and we agreed lessons would start mid February, daytime only and around your school timetable.

I gave details of my daily working hours. I send this information to all my clients as I feel it helps them to appreciate I cant always respond as quickly as I'd like.

The times where not my availability and I think this may have caused some confusion as you then requested evening lessons and seemed surprised when I explained this wasn't possible. It was then i suggested that if evening lessons where required you would need to find a different instructor. No rudeness was meant on my part.
