Baxter School of Motoring - Baxter SOM

Fantastic experience: As a nervous learner driver in my 40s, I was really daunted by the idea of transitioning from manual to automatic. Nick was brilliant from start to finish - patient, calm, and always reassuring. He built up my confidence, prepared me so well for my test, and I passed first time! I never once felt stressed or panicked with him. I can’t recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: I honestly cannot recommend Jason enough!! He is a fantastic instructor, very calm and made me feel completely at ease. I genuinely enjoyed every lesson! I am a more confident driver than I ever thought I could be and it’s all thanks to Jason. Thank you so much for everything!! ☺️

Fantastic experience: I passed first time with Baxter School of Motoring. Jason was a really great teacher, he went through everything at a great pace and always made sure I knew exactly what I needed to progress with. He was so reliable every single week and was very easy to get hold of if I had any questions between lessons. I had my first proper lesson in April and passed In September all due to Jay’s expertise. I would recommend the business to anyone looking for a driving instructor!!

Fantastic experience: Learnt with Jason and he was a great instructor. He had me up and running in no time. I was hesitant at first with how I would deal with driving.
