Fantastic experience: I am recommending Colin’s driving school. I have passed my driving test, fully prepared. Instructor is very flexible with hours and weekends. Learn me from the beginning until I successfully passed the practice test! Very grateful ☺️
Fantastic experience: Colin is amazing. Very patient and super knowledgable. Taught me near enough everything I know and guided me to pass first time with 3 minor faults. Couldn’t recommend enough.
Many thanks for your kind words Erdem.
It was a lot of fun to help you, and the car always smelt nicer after our lessons. :)

Well done on the very deserved pass. Stay safe on those roads now.
Fantastic experience: An incredible instructor. Colin is extremely patient, punctual, has a calming aura, easy going, fair on criticism, boosts confidence, hones in on skills that are needing polishing and overall fun to learn from. Can be mean by having you face No Entry roads but its all part of the fun! :D hahaha. I'm thankful I found Colin after having terrible experiences with other's and dampening my confidence. Always have breakfast before any exam everyone! :D It's been an absolute pleasure! See you on the roads!
Hi Chizzy (?)
Many thanks for your wonderful review,
It was an absolute pleasure to have helped you on your journey. I found you to be a very attentive learner, listening to the advice and working on your own solutions to the varying hazards on the road.
The comments from your examiner on the day speak volumes on your ability and how much you had developed from when we first met.
Stay safe on the roads, and keep smiling.
Kind regards
Colin

So happy I passed first time with just 1 minor, definitely could’ve got the blank sheet but Colin’s done an amazing job getting me to where I am now! Absolutely loving being able to drive myself around not waiting for the boyfriend haha Thanks so much, Soph

Thank you Paul for your kind words, It was an honour and a pleasure to help you on your journey.
You overcame some very taxing circumstances to pass and with only 5 driver faults.
Keep safe on the roads and please do wave if you see me on the road.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Colin for just over a year, I know long time when I first started driving I was crazy went up curbs too lol. Colin really took his time with me and has helped me develop so much as a driver, I will be coming back next year for the driving plus that you can do with Colin. Today I passed my test 3rd times a charm, Colin stood by me and helped me correct my mistakes he could have said goodbye but he didn’t. I will miss my driving lessons with him. But I couldn’t recommend anyone better, he is very considerate and passionate too about his role of being a driving instructor. So thank you Colin for everything.

Stay safe on the roads now :)
