Fantastic experience: I recently passed my driving test, and I couldn’t have done it without Alan.He was patient, calm, and always explained things clearly, which really helped build my confidence behind the wheel. Every lesson was well-organized and focused on improving my skills step by step. Even when I made mistakes, we stayed positive and helped me learn from them. Thanks to his support and great teaching, I felt fully prepared for my test and passed with confidence.

Fantastic experience: I honestly cannot recommend Alan enough! Without his patience, dedication, and relaxed manner, I don't think I would have passed the first time. Alan doesn't just teach you how to drive to pass your test, he teaches how to be a good and safe driver. Exactly what I wanted knowing my children would be in the car with me.

Fantastic experience: Alan is a great driving instructor, took away the nervousness of my girls on their first lesson. He made them feel confident in driving, the only reason they went elsewhere is they wanted to learn in an automatic! I would highly recommend Alan.

Lola Boynton 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Passed my test- thank you!! Alan was very patient, supportive, and always kept things calm, even when I was nervous or made mistakes, and explained everything in a way that made sense and always made me feel like I was improving. Thanks to his help, I passed my test and feel confident on the road now.

Claire Harrington 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I recently had an advanced driving lesson with Alan to familiarise myself again with the M25 and I found him to be a first class driving instructor. Alan has expert knowledge of all things driving and anything he doesn’t know about driving rules and road safety just isn’t worth knowing! He tailored the lesson to suit my needs, taking the time to explain things clearly and patiently, helping me in the areas where I had been unsure. I came away from my lesson feeling more knowledgeable and confident. I would highly recommend Alan to anyone.

Polly 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Alan has been an amazing instructor for the few months I have been learning with him. He has really helped me to get to grips with driving and has been patient, kind and supportive. I have had a few instructors over the years but no other gave me the confidence to actually proceed with a test. If you're anxious about learning to drive, I really recommend Alan. I could not have passed first time without him.

Fantastic experience: Great instructor. Thoroughly teaches in a calm, professional manner. Similarly, every mistake was analysed, reviewed and explained suitably, to ensure maximum clarity and attainment of knowledge. Highly recommended.

Jack Kay 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Alan was a great driving instructor, very knowledgeable on everything from the rules and regulations to general driving! Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a driving instructor! He got me to pass my test, first time, in just under 2 months with only a 2 hour lesson every week and a 6 hour lesson the day before my test. Great guy- seriously cannot recommend enough

Wolf Blas 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Alan has been an amazing instructor, I have completed about 8 hours with him and transformed the way I understood what was needed to do in traffic. He has a calm and relaxed approach to teaching to drive. Another thing that supported me to pass my driving test was the tips which made me remember how to handle situations which I've previously found difficult. 100% recommend him, as I'm someone who hates driving because of anxious it make me feel. He has supported me through his teaching to reduce my anxiety behind the wheel, pass the exam and drive safer.

Fantastic experience: Had lessons and passed first time with Alan, absolutely brilliant instructor. Helped me feel at ease when I felt anxious on dual carriage way. Recommended 100% much better than the instructor I had before, thanks so much Alan

Sri Harish Kalidass 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am so glad I chose Alan as my driving instructor. I tried a couple of instructors, and they weren't up to the mark, and I was a little concerned in my first lesson with Alan(via BSM), but he made sure I was comfortable and tailored the lesson plans and pace to fit my profile. The best part getting lessons from Alan is that he doesn't just train people to pass the test, but rather, he trains young drivers to be sensitive and safe drivers given any circumstances. I thoroughly enjoyed my lessons. Most importantly, he is very flexible, polite, and goes above and beyond to make sure we get the concepts right. Finally, he was gentle to get me a coffee almost every single lesson. I would definitely recommend Alan if you would like to learn to become a safe and efficient driver and ace your test!
