Keiths School of Motoring

Positive experience: Phil is a great driving instructor and a really nice guy with a good sense of humour and always down for a laugh. I always enjoyed my lessons with him and would recommend him to anyone nervous starting to drive. Cheers Phil

Negative experience: I had Terry as my driving instructor and I can honestly say that it was the worst driving lesson I have ever had. He spends most of the time talking about himself and is overly critical from start to finish. He also made a comment about 'women drivers' which I found appalling. Avoid this instructor.

Negative experience: I would not recommend. I was paired up with Clive. I am grateful he taught me how to move the car, and gear/clutch control. However I would not recommend him considering how he taught me. Firstly, he shouts when I make mistakes and dwells on the mistake which can also cause another mistake to happen. I’m African, he made few comments about how poor Africa is. I reported him once regarding his way of teaching as I am a new learn and has never driven in the UK before so obviously I will make few mistakes which is allowed as a new learner. When starting roundabouts at first he didn’t teach me from the book first and allowed me to try it without having any clue, when I made mistakes that’s when he posed, asked me to park and we went through steps of approaching roundabouts. I wondered from that point if there were anymore things he wasn’t telling me. However 3 ppl passed since I started with him from sept 2022 to February 2023. We only do 1 hour every week (Note sometimes I miss lessons). I don’t know how he is like with other students but personally I feel like my time and money has been wasted. Moreover, he focuses on criticism so much and hardly verbalised what I done right. I’m never someone who wrote such feedbacks but I just had to.

Negative experience: Don’t drive with Clive, awful instructor! He spends most of the lesson waffling about things other than driving & then gives you little to no instructions about driving, often arrives too early or too late, would’ve gave half a star rating if I could.

Fantastic experience: I cannot thank Mike and the team enough, booked a last minute test and couldn't get an instructor so hired a car from Keiths and my son passed. Great car, great service, would highly recommend to anyone who needs either lessons or hire.
