Axles Driving School

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of learning to drive with Chris, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the outset, he was exceptionally professional and patient, creating a learning environment where I felt completely at ease. He really is a fantastic instructor, really recommend!

Fantastic experience: Chris is the most amazing driving instructor ever - he is so relaxed and makes driving with him incredibly relaxed too. He had me on the motorway on my 4th lesson (because he’s so good!). Would recommend him to anyone looking to do an intensive driving course or more regular longer term driving lessons - he’s amazing!

Fantastic experience: Very lovely instructor and a very useful teacher!

Fantastic experience: I have no words to thank Chris. A calm man with a gentle voice, who makes you understand where you are wrong and gain confidence. I recommend with confidence.

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test first time the other day thanks to Chris. His clear guidance and excellent knowledge helped me learn safely. His patience and good sense of humour always meant that lessons were easygoing for a learner driver. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing driving instructor who makes every lesson enjoyable! His sense of humor keeps things light, and his patience and clear guidance make learning to drive so much easier. I always felt supported, even when I made mistakes. Thanks to Chris, I passed my test and had a lot of fun along the way. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Today I passed my test and it was all thanks to Chris. I had about 18 hours of lessons with Chris and through his intensive courses it's not only helped me learn quicker but helped me maintain a steady stream of learning where I'm behind the wheel for many hours per week. Chris was extremely good at fixing technique issues and knows most Hertfordshire test routes like the back of his hand. Chris shows you that he enjoys teaching and makes sure you get the best out of the time you spend with him. Thanks for all your help Chris!

Fantastic experience: I did a 20 hour driving course with Chris and past within 4 months of turning 17! He is a very patient and reliable driving instructor who has gone above and beyond in order for me to pass, thank you Chris for giving me a great driving lesson experience :)

Fantastic experience: I did a 15 hour course with Chris and passed first time!! I had previous experience so we done an assessment and from there booked the course. He is a fantastic instructor!! He tells you exactly how the examiners want you to drive, if he doesn’t like what you’re doing he will go over it with you until it’s perfected. He does mock tests which I think is brilliant and his help sheet is brilliant too. I would really recommend Chris for these courses he’s so good and I couldn’t have passed without him :) I done hours and hours of lessons and was getting no where then 15 hours with Chris was all that I needed

Fantastic experience: I’ve had so many instructors and not one has managed to calm me like Chris has. I took test after test and failed every time for nerves as I am an anxious driver, I came to Chris and did an intensive course and have now passed! He is amazing at his job, the best instructor I have ever had, and the way he teaches is just so simple ☺️ I honestly don’t think I could of done it without him. Highly recommend Chris!!

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Chris’ expert instruction I drove to Bath and back over the weekend. I can’t quite believe it! I can only echo the comments of all the other reviewers - Chris is a fantastic instructor and great company to boot. As a forty-something learner I was a bit apprehensive but Chis’ unflappability, simple explanations, and easy-to-remember manoeuvre techniques, made the whole experience a pleasure. I can’t imagine there’s a better instructor out there. Thanks Chris!

Fantastic experience: Chris is the best instructor I have ever had in my last 2 years of driving. I had manual lessons with Chris and he explained things really clearly to me! I passed first time in Manual and I couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing instructor, very patient reliable and encouraging. I was very nervous but this instructor really encouraged me on making me believe i can do this! He worked incredibly well to melt away all my fears about driving and i cannot thank him enough. Would highly recommend. Thank you for being the best instructor.

Fantastic experience: Our son coby had Chris for his lessons, and passed his test today, with only 2 minors, coby found Chris both helpful and honest on his driving skills, due to having to wait months for a test there was a period of time where we didn’t need the lessons, which was suggested suggested by Chris, where he could have just sat back and took the cash, Thank you

Fantastic experience: Chris is a great driving instructor , my son enjoyed his lessons and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting lessons.

Fantastic experience: I took a few refresher lessons with Chris and I could not have had a better experience. As I was considering purchasing either an automatic or a manual car, it was great that Chris can offer lessons on both types. I had one lesson on the auto to refresh my general driving knowledge. Then I decided to buy a manual car and had another lesson on manual. Chris is patient, explains really well and gave me the confidence to get behind the wheel again. Plus he's a really nice person and great to be around in the car. I'm sure he would have also been great if I were a beginner driver! I would definitely recommend Chris as a driving instructor.

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Chris, I was able to learn and pass my driving test after 5 weeks of starting lessons. He’s an excellent teacher with patience and an ability to make lessons fun and stress-free. Due to his confidence in me and his encouragement, I was able to progress quickly and ultimately pass with a good result. I enjoyed every lesson and am very grateful for his support. Thank you Chris! :)

Fantastic experience: Super happy with this instructor. Amazing guy who teaches superbly. I had been revoked for 6 months so needed to re take my test. No body would take me on as all the other instructors are only interested in their pass rates, where as Chris, the wonderful soul, decided to give me a chance and i am so great-full. I only needed 3 hours with Chris until i was back to a driving test standard. Considering we had little faith after the first hour due to myself picking up awful driving habits purely from driving a fiat for 2 years and being poorly taught previously, Im super happy that i passed first time and am driving in a much more efficient way due to Chris’s intellectual yet simple teaching.

Fantastic experience: Chris is an excellent driving instructor! He is friendly, patient, understanding, and great at explaining things so that they can be easily understood. It was a pleasure learning to drive with Chris, I couldn’t have passed without him! Thank you so much! :)

Fantastic experience: I took up lessons with Chris after having previously having done a few lessons elsewhere a couple years prior. We promptly went through all of the required topics from the very top to assess where my driving was at, and what I needed to work on to get up to test standard. I'm pleased to say that I passed first time today with only 3 minors, after just 13 hours with Chris before the test. Chris has a knack for putting you at ease. Not only is he a pleasure to talk to whilst learning, but he is efficient and concise with his teaching methods. He has some great tips on all of the tricky maneuvers, as well as some invaluable general driving advice that I'll be carrying with me as I move on with my driving. It really is quality over quantity with Chris, and I certainly wish he was the first instructor I went to. Great instructor & a great guy all around. I can't recommend him enough! Thank you Chris!

Fantastic experience: Chris was an excellent instructor. After a long 3 and a half years he enabled me to pass my test with only 5 minors. He explains things in an easy to understand and concise way which makes it very easy to know what you need to do to pass. His car is lovely to drive too and it was a pleasure to be taught by him. Thanks Chris !!!!

Fantastic experience: I honestly could not have done it without you. Over a decade of practice with multiple useless instructors. I have minimal lessons with you and join the first time club. So thank you for changing and bettering my children and my life. I will be forever grateful.

Fantastic experience: Chris is just amazing! he did his best to help me passing my driving test in just 10 lessons! Very good explanations, and his car is desing to help you doing the manouvres just easier. He gave my the confidence that I needed to pass the test at the first try. Again, thank you so much for everything Chris, take care and hope you are great swings again!!

Fantastic experience: Chris is a great communicator and knows how to put you at ease. He helped build my confidence and is always positive. He has really good energy and will bring out the driver in you. He helped me pass my test at a very important time in my life. Having put off driving for so long but having a toddler and a new baby meant I had to get behind the wheel and Chris saved the day!

Fantastic experience: Chris is fantastic driving teacher. You can't go wrong. My experience with him was g8. He is very good human being.

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Chris and learned so much in such a short time. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor his teaching skills are quality. Would definitely recommend taking your lessons with Axles Driving School. Thanks Chris!!!

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of spending a 15 hour crash course with Chris, What a brilliant instructor!! Such a difference between experience to other instructors i had in the past. Chris understood my anxiety problems and worked so well to help me keep my nerves under control and to keep my cool on the test!! I cannot fault a single thing always calm and explains things in a simple way that makes it all so much easier to remember. Highly Recommended its been a delight to get that pass certificate with Chris !!

Fantastic experience: Would like to say a big thank you to Chris i only had booked 5 hours and with his teaching and patients i just past my driving test with only 4 faults he is such a great teacher i had been driving for years so I had the bad habits few hours with Chris and I PASSED thank you again Chris

Fantastic experience: My first and the best driving instructor. Chris is very experienced, professional and patient driving instructor who I would surely recommend. I have enjoyed during my driving lessons and would like to thank again for making it easier so I could pass on my first attempt. Thanks Again Chris. Cheers

Fantastic experience: Best instructor ever!made me feel comfortable for start to finish, didn’t even get angry at me when I hit the curb a few times xD and was calm and professional the entire time whilst also feeling like a friend you’ve known for years! Would recommend to anyone,you won’t regret the lessons and I can say that confidently!!!

Fantastic experience: Punctual, fun, friendly and reliable! Passed first time!!!

Fantastic experience: Highly professional driving instructor who goes the extra mile to make sure you understand everything fully in order to pass your test. Chris is really patient and a great teacher, I really enjoyed my lessons with him and know that I passed with much fewer lessons than lots of my friends.

Fantastic experience: Intelligent, and caring with loads of experience, Chris is a completely professional driving instructor, whom I highly recommend.
