Higgins School of Motoring

Fantastic experience: Phil is a patient, kind, friendly and understanding instructor who made my daughter feel very comfortable. He is flexible and would accommodate lessons for my daughter at short notice. She passed her exam on the first attempt and she truly enjoyed the entire experience of learning. She feels much more confident and competent as a driver thanks to his guidance. I would highly recommend Phil

Fantastic experience: 100% recommend Phil as an instructor. He made me feel comfortable driving in the UK and taught me useful tricks that was handy during the test. His car is also perfect for the test - not too big and not too small. smashed the test on my first try!

Fantastic experience: Both my mum and I, Passed 1st time with higgins. He not only teaches you how to drive incredibly well but also helps to change your perspective on learning new things.

Fantastic experience: When I started learning with Phil I told him straight away I couldn't drive. He said everyone can learn and was proved right. Despite being very nervous I passed first time. Phil did have an understanding of how I learned new things and how to build my confidence. If you have tried previously to learn and feel nervous I'd recommend Phil and the automatic is much easier to learn in.

Fantastic experience: Phil is a great instructor - he's patient, knows his stuff inside out and communicates excellently. He handled the Covid19 lockdown break well and once tests were reopened I was able to be booked in quickly and passed my test first time with just 1 minor. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to learn.

Fantastic experience: Phil is an incredible instructor that I would absolutely recommend to everyone. Before starting driving I had severe anxiety attacks about getting behind the wheel of a car - but Phil handled my worries perfectly and put me at complete ease. I passed my test today and I know that wouldn't have been possible without Phil's help. 5 stars, would recommend to everyone looking to learn to drive.

Fantastic experience: I called Phil just 1 month before my test and despite the short notice he was very willing to help and got me confident for my test in just 3 weeks! After two years and two failed attempts, I finally passed my practical test! I would 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Mr Higgins is professional and very nice person. Phil made me feel self confident and taught me all the necessary skills as a result I passed my driving test from the first time. Also I liked the car, very comfortable and optimal size for learning. Highly recommend this school!

Fantastic experience: A patient motoring teacher with the wisdom and experience to match. I always felt safe behind the wheel with Phil as he gave clear instructions and assuring criticisms - he’s allowed me to blossom into a safe and constructive driver and pass my practical test with confidence. Many thanks to Higgins School of Motoring, I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Fantastic experience: I started driving with Phil after I’d spent 8 years not driving at all. He helped me build my confidence from the ground up, was very patient and always focused on teaching me real skills that would take me forward to be a great driver. Phil really delivered first class teaching throughout the time that I was learning with him and due to this I passed first time! I have also just completed Pass plus with Phil as well. The additional focus on building greater alertness and skill as a new driver and improving reaction times on the day to day roads and motorways has really gone a long way in taking my driving skills to the next level. It goes without saying, but I’m extremely thankful for having had the opportunity to learn with Phil and would HIGHLY recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructor, very patient and easy to get along with. I would highly recommend to anybody at any age! Phil has taught me how to be a good driver and pass my driving test 1st time. I will be forever greatful to him.

Fantastic experience: After feeling very nervous about driving, Phil helped me so much put my mind at ease and is really easy to get along with, he is very patient and having two cars offering manual or automatic made it easier for me to decided what car I’d like to drive. Highly recommended

Negative experience: Don't pay upfront without a trace of the cash. Phil offered to book the practical exam courteously and save me the hassle if I paid him. (He never even booked it) When wanting to reschedule/delay my exam due to personal reasons Phil had mysteriously lost all records of me ever giving me him £62 cash in hand. Of course this is my fault, you can never be too careful on who to trust so if you do book with him keep your wits about you because I didn't. Passed first time with another instructor first time and for cheaper as well.

Fantastic experience: You get what you pay for but I believe I get a lot more. My instructor Phil made me feel comfortable when I was so very nervous. He is patient and understanding which I believe is a must if your are a driving instructor. I could not see myself doing better with anyone else. I enjoy every lesson and Phil's teaching skills are second to none (I think that says it all ) I would strongly recommend Phil to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I was very nervous about driving and was lucky to came accross Phil as he managed to put my nerves at ease, was patient with me and over 3 month did lots of practice untill i felt ready for the test. Passed first time. Maybe i could have done it faster with someone more intense and pushy, but i prefer the way it was as i feel comfortable about driving and the exposure i had.
