Fantastic experience: Richard is an exceptional driving instructor – truly brilliant! As someone who was both a nervous driver and a slow learner, his unique approach made all the difference. He demonstrated incredible patience, was consistently encouraging, and always believed in my ability to learn and pass. His kindness created a comfortable learning environment, and I can now confidently say I'm a qualified driver thanks to him. If you're looking for the best in Bristol, I can't recommend Richard enough!

Fantastic experience: PASSED FIRST ATTEMPT (with just 3 minor errors) I passed my driving test first attempt with only three minor faults, all thanks to Richard! Richard was incredibly patient and taught in a way that was clear, calm, and easy to understand. I was quite nervous about learning to drive, but he always kept a calm and encouraging attitude, which helped me build confidence with every lesson. I never felt rushed, and he made sure I understood everything at my own pace. I’d 100% recommend learning with Richard!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Richard enough! He’s incredibly patient and takes time to explain everything thoroughly until you understand. As someone who didn’t find driving easy he was able to put me as ease and figure out how to build up my skills and confidence. He prepared you not only for the test but for driving after it too.

Fantastic experience: Richard is very professional and has a pass rate (currently at 69%) that is significantly higher than the national average (42%). He is very good at gauging your abilities and planning the lesson route that is concordant with your current level, and uses his iPad to draw out and explain concepts, which is very clear. He will not let you do the test unless you are ready and have a good chance of passing, which turns out very well for me, a very nervous driver, to have that reassurance and I passed the first time round with one minor. His motto is to teach you how to drive, instead of just passing the exam, so there can be lessons on the motorway or routes that are not in the exam. He is also very familiar with the exam requirements and exam routes and will practice them (often the hardest routes) multiple times before the exam. His electric car is also in a very good condition, user-friendly and is perfect for learners.

Fantastic experience: I can't thank my instructor (Richard) enough, I thought he was absolutely amazing. I did an assessment to judge my driving first. I then required 20 hours, intensive course, this worked well for me as I could pick up driving this way, due to high demand for driving test I had to wait a few weeks for my test, I had a 2 hour brush up the day before my driving test and the hour before the actual test. I passed 1st time with 3 Minors. Richard has alot of patience I highly recommend him. it's a big 5 star from me.
