Move on Up Driving

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Very patient instructor.

Fantastic experience: Martin is a brilliant driving instructor patient, clear, and calm even when my gear changes sounded like a rock band tuning up. His humour made every lesson fly by, and thanks to him I passed feeling confident and ready for the road. Highly recommended! Thank you Martin ! Alex

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Martin was patient, calm and ultimately a really nice guy. Will definitely be recommending him to my friends and family!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructor got a pass first time with him highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I just passed my driving test, and I honestly couldn't have done it without Martin! From the very first lesson, he was calm, patient, and incredibly supportive. He explained everything clearly, gave me useful tips, and helped me build confidence behind the wheel. Martin’s relaxed and professional teaching style really made a difference, especially when I was feeling nervous. I always felt like he believed in me, and that encouragement kept me motivated. If you're looking for a top-notch driving instructor who genuinely wants you to succeed, I highly recommend Martin. Thank you so much for everything!

Fantastic experience: If you are nervous to start learning to drive like I was then Martin is the perfect person to teach you as from the first lesson he immediately put me at ease. Never in a lesson did I judged or scolded if I made a mistake; Martin was always there to reassure and fix any problems I had. Finally passed my test today with no faults so would definitely recommend him as an instructor for anyone who’s wanting one!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t not recommend a better driving instructor. After having a bad experience with learning to drive 4 years ago, I was reluctant to begin learning again. Martin was recommended to me through a friend and in a few months I was back feeling confident behind a wheel. Today I passed my driving test, and I am so incredibly happy, and it’s all thanks to Martin. I would strongly advise anyone learning/re-learning to drive to consider learning with Martin. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Martin is an absolutely fantastic instructor! I was previously learning with one of the PASS instructors and I failed on my first test despite having many lessons. I decided to change instructors and use an independent instructor who was highly recommended. I can honestly say, I wish I had used Martin from the start. I am a very nervous driver and he was so much more patient and calm which really helped me to feel at ease during lessons. He has a cheery sense of humour which helped me forget about my nerves and he never raised his voice or got irritated no matter how many mistakes I made. He is one of the calmest persons I've ever met. Martin is really clear in his communication and explained every manoeuvre so I understood what I was doing and why. He allowed me to practise things until I felt comfortable and didn't race through things. I really appreciate how he reassured me constantly and built my confidence, especially near the day of my test. I passed without any minors and I really believe it's down to Martin's teaching. I would highly recommend Martin to anyone learning and especially for people who are anxious or nervous.

Fantastic experience: Martin is a fantastic instructor. Really friendly and easy to get along with so you feel comfortable from the first lesson. I didn’t have a great deal of confidence in myself but Martin was patient and reassuring. Thanks for everything!

Fantastic experience: I’m so happy to have passed my test today in Herne Bay. Martin is a really great instructor. I’m quite an anxious driver and he helped calm my nerves and made me feel at ease with my driving. He has a really good car for learners that helps with the manoeuvres including a rear camera to help with reverse bay park and parallel park. He has a lot of experience and gives really useful tips that are essential to passing the driving test. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for lessons, both new and more experienced drivers.

Fantastic experience: Was a pleasure Learning with Martin. He’s a great instructor and a lovely person too never made me stressed learning , helped me to pass first time with only 3 minors! Will miss learning with him and highly recommend to anyone looking for an instructor.

Fantastic experience: Spent a while looking for the right person for the job. Glad I did and glad I found him. Been absolutely superb with my (Nuerodivergent) son, and me, always there to answer any question. He's managed to get everything across, to someone who's not always great at taking in information, in a way he's understood and has stuck. He can get a bit stressed in new situations but came back from every lesson happy and positive. The icing on the cake being him passing his test first time after only a few months of lessons. Can't thank Martin enough my son has gained some valuable Independence and self belief under his expert tutelage.

Fantastic experience: Martin is a great instructor. He always made sure I was at ease and comfortable as I am natural worrier. He has helped me to become a confident driver and has taught me key skills that helped me not only pass first time but also to take with me on the roads in the future. I would recommended him to anyone looking to start/continue their driving journey.

Fantastic experience: Martin is the best driving instructor I have ever had. He puts you at ease right away with his vast experience and knowledge and instils a confidence in you with his continual patience and calm but humorous approach. He has been very flexible and understanding and his earnest passion for teaching truly sparkles. Thank you for everything and I will be recommending you to those around me!!

Fantastic experience: What a great experience I had with Martin! There were times when I doubted myself and Martin calmed me down and made me believe I can accomplish what I wanted with my driving. He had so much patience and understanding with me and gave me the best tips to learn for my driving. I passed today with only 1 minor mark and that tells you everything you need to know about how Martin teaches. I will recommend him to absolutely anyone looking to find the best instructor around. Thank you, Martin.

Fantastic experience: Great instructor, really teaches you well and has great patience that is balanced out with a good sense of humour that always keeps you calm and composed. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant experience. I had some refresher lessons and Martin got me on the motorway which has always been a fear of mine. He is extremely patient. He is funny and puts you at ease straight away. I felt confident and safe when driving with Martin. I am now a confident, safe driver. I would highly recommend him to learners, and 'refreshers'. A massive thank you!!!

Fantastic experience: It was a great experience learning with Martin, his calm and patient approach to teaching makes it a lot easier to learn from your mistakes and his advice is always helpful. He taught me various methods on how to approach different areas of my driving and as a result I feel very confident on the road. Thanks Martin for the experience, and I would recommend you to anyone looking to learn.

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Martin. His calm and supportive approach made every lesson enjoyable, and his memorable sayings made learning a breeze. Martin's kindness and patience were evident, providing a comfortable space to build confidence gradually. What stood out was his ability to tailor lessons to my specific needs, focusing on areas that needed improvement. Martin's professionalism shone through his punctuality, clear communication, and thorough preparation. Beyond being an exceptional instructor, he brought a sense of humor to our lessons, making each one not only educational but also a lot of fun. I highly recommend Martin for anyone looking for a skilled, patient, and enjoyable driving instructor. Thank you, Martin, for making this learning journey so positive and memorable!

Fantastic experience: Martin is fantastic. After our son had used a multiple of different instructors and was struggling with his driving, we gave Martin a call. He was so supportive, calm and measured that our son’s confidence grew enormously and he has now passed his test. We could not recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: Martin is a great instructor, very calm, patient, and knowledgeable. As someone getting back into driving after many years away, his approach really helped overcome the initial hesitation I had, instilling confidence to feel comfortable and safe getting back out there. I would definitely recommend!
