Tizwaz Rider Training: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Tizwaz is THE place to go for CBT and training. Elliot is a highly experienced instructor who provides clear and concise advice and guidance. I won't go anywhere else. If you're reading this, look no further, call now!!
It is always great to hear from a happy customer. I am glad you enjoyed your training with us and hope to see you again in the future in the shop or for training.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant! The whole Tizwaz team was amazing. After 39 years of not riding, and being very nervous, Trev supported me to successfully complete my CBT with patience and good humour. I would highly recommend Tizwaz to help you to achieve your motorcycling ambitions.
Fantastic experience: First off, massive shoutout to Katheryn for her impeccable organization skills. She made sure everything was smooth sailing from day one, keeping me informed and on track throughout the whole process. Her efficiency and friendly demeanor took all the stress out of the admin side, allowing me to focus solely on my training. And then there's Eliot, my fantastic instructor. Eliot's understanding and encouraging approach made a world of difference. He has a knack for explaining things clearly and a patient way of guiding you through even the trickiest maneuvers. His positive attitude and expert insights boosted my confidence and skills on the bike. Together, Katheryn and Eliot created a top-notch learning environment that not only prepared me for the test but also made the entire journey enjoyable. I'm beyond grateful for their support and couldn't have asked for a better team to help me achieve this milestone. If you're looking to get your bike license, this is THE place to do it. Highly recommend! ️
Fantastic experience: Really professional and friendly bike shop and riding school. Relaxed and professional training. A really enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! Just did my cbt with these guys, relaxed friendly atmosphere, did my cbt a few years ago with a different local company, but tizwaz were much more professional and easy going!
Fantastic experience: Big thanks to Harvey for the excellent CBT training experience! Nailed it and completed my training smoothly. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing and so patient thank you guys, I got my A Licence here!!!
Fantastic experience: Harvey is Brilliant, I broke my leg after a moped crash & he gave me confidence 2 get back on the road & put me at ease 2 complete my CBT,would highly Recommend, great job
Fantastic experience: Completed the CBT course with this company. Trev the Instructor, was helpful and patient. Highly recommend.
Negative experience: Theres a reason why these guys have spaces within weeks and everyone else is booked up well in advance, the reason is boots, they'll send you home and keep the cash if you haven't got boots, which i can understand on a proper motorbike, but is rediculous on a CBT for a moped, its NOT a legal requirement, theres 1000's of delivery riders in this town, and they all say avoid tizwaz because they'll insist you have boots, im not gunna spend the money to buy some boots that will get used for one day. edit to respond: legally i can wear trainers if i want to, no other CBT providers in the area enforce it and non of them have issues with accidents and broken ankles, aslong as you say you recommend boots for safety reasons thats your job done.
Hi Alex. Sorry to hear you were not happy with my reply about your boots. But a wellington boot that you suggested wearing is not a safety boot and will easily slip off your leg in the event of an accident. I will not apologise for wanting to have students wearing safe kit.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience all round with this training school. I did my CBT there 2 years ago and just recently my direct access. Chris and Elliot are friendly, informative and patient and most importantly got me through my tests first time. You can't go wrong with these guys. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the lovely review. Hope to see you out soon on your new bike.
Fantastic experience: This has to be honestly one of the best places to learn, after having a really bad experience with a cbt else where, I was a little worried about retaking however, Tizwaz is a incredible place to go. The staff are extremely lovely and understanding, clear and knowledgeable. Chris was my trainer and he was utterly brilliant help me thought out the day, funny and informative. After passing the CBT with flying colours. I hit home and jumped on my yamaha yzf R-125 for the rest of the day, had a so much fun and freedom and confident on roads, thank you tizwaz amazing
Fantastic experience: First class tuition from a team who really know their stuff! To get training from a team that are so skilled, professional and relaxed made this rider training such a pleasurable experience. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I have just completed a course with this team... from not riding on road for 35 years to successfully gaining my full licence first time within a few weeks. Excellent support from admin with kathryn in charge at all times to the training with chris and elliot. First class bikes and patient no stress training. I cannot recommend this company enough.
Fantastic experience: Been riding on a provisional for some years, finally decided to do my DAS, extremely friendly from the get-go, had all of my sessions with Elliot who was very knowledgeable and friendly helped me to figure out my weaknesses and get test ready, passed mod 1 & 2 first time with their guidance, highly recommend if you're wanting to get out on the road.
Fantastic experience: Super friendly and really patient and helpful. I was extremely nervous and literally shaking but the instructor made me super comfortable and was really calm with me and helped me all throughout. Would definitely recommend them to anyone, nervous or not.
Thank Verity. Hopefully we will see you out and about on your bike. Pop in the shop and let us know how its going or if you have any further questions.
Negative experience: Called and booked a CBT test for 2 days time. The morning of the test i called an hour and fifteen minutes before to say i couldn't make it and could we please reschedule. Told i basically had to pay again with a £30 dicount. Unreasonably greedy considering the instructor had someone else booked on the course with me the same day
Fantastic experience: Just took my CBT with Tizwaz. Chris was a great instructor full of info and good stories, with a great teaching manner, and the day went really smoothly. I plan on doing all the rest of my rider training with them, thanks Tizwaz!
Fantastic experience: thanks to him pass my cbt
Fantastic experience: Just did my CBT I had a great day the whole team are professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend Tizwaz. Chris thank you for your expert training, appreciated your genuine kindness, enthusiastic and encouraging words, that really helped, I am feeling more confident on the road, and motivated to get my full licence. Brilliant day thanks again Ann
Negative experience: The lady who was supposed to take my booking was very rude and has no manners, just an awful person to speak with. In addition to that, Tizwaz offer overpriced training compared to other schools nearby.
Fantastic experience: Very good instructor
Fantastic experience: Absolute great team at Tizwaz all very helpful and professional. Carried out Several training courses with them now and couldn't fault them one bit, would highly recommend to anyone looking to get on two wheels.
Thanks Brad. Glad you are happy with the service. Its good to see students out there enjoying them selves on two wheels.
Fantastic experience: James was an outstanding instructor, very patient and well mannered with a great sense of humor. Pleasure to take my test with himself and Tizwaz. Cheers, guys!
Fantastic experience: Recently did my CBT test at the age of 54 having never ridden a bike before! I was so nervous I was physically shaking but with the expertise and patience of the instructor I can now ride my scooter with confidence ! (I have my instructors encouraging words in my left ear everywhere I go!).
That just lovely to hear. We hope you will have many more hours riding ahead of you.
Fantastic experience: James taught me the correct way to ride. I was not the best educated rider and once I had finished the course and passed my test I became much more aware thanks to James. He took me out and was friendly but also he kept the professional attitude and attention the whole time. Can’t wait to come back to do my full a license with James.
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend tizwaz for a cbt . Chris and james reassured me throughout it all . And I passed. Best one in south
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience here while doing my cbt. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: My exam was successful. Very friendly and helpful, team. Thank you for this day.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend these guys. A good mixture of classroom and bike skills before riding on the road. Very understanding, great instructors, no pressure Looking forward to passing my theory test then back for my A licence.
Thanks for the review Sharon. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Fantastic experience: As an aging first time rider I was a little apprehensive about the CBT. There was no need to be as the course was superbly run, the two instructors were incredibly patient with a couple of wobbly riders (me included) and a couple of experienced riders. The small class size was great, the bikes were easy to ride and the standard of delivery of the material was conversational and memorable. The road craft left me with great confidence in my abilities (let's hope these are shared by other road users) and overall it was a great day. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Top tier team here at Tizwaz. Good people who want to help you get on a motorcycle with all the necessary skills. Very friendly and make the whole process seem less scary. Make sure to hit up the TizWaz motorcycle gear shop on Wimborne Road in Winton where you can get a discount if you complete your CBT here.
Thanks Simon. Thank you for the review. Yes that's right. If you book a CBT through us you will get a 15% discount off your first purchase. Well worth a look.
Fantastic experience: Completed my first CBT with Tizwaz and it was such a great experince. James was brilliant, calm, funny and full of knowledge. I was really.nervous but both he and Elliot were exactly what I needed to give me a bit of confidence. I'll definitely be going back for my full license eventually
Fantastic experience: Excellent teachers , very patient . helped me feel confident to be on the road
Fantastic experience: CBT completed with James, top bloke and looking forward to passing my A1 licence with him next year. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: james is really good, feels very safe riding and learning with him. 100% recommend
Fantastic experience: J.M was a very good instructor as he made me feel comfortable enough as i was lil nervous to go on roads He got patience when I wanted to do something over and over again so i can get my confidence higher He’s an Absolutely g Hopefully next training is with him in 2 years
Fantastic experience: Had training with James on Sunday great trainer very good course would always recommend doing your training with this
Fantastic experience: Me and my boyfriend did our CBT here today with James. He was really good. We had a laugh while learning and its a nice relaxed atmosphere and hes a great teacher as explained everything well and had some very handy tips and info on all things bike. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Thanks to James and Chris for being so patient with me as a new rider and keeping me laughing throughout my CBT. Was a great experience, despite the weather. Would definitely recommend Tizwaz.
Glad you had fun. Hope to see on your bike at the shop in the future.
Fantastic experience: Professional CBT training, valuable and refreshing riding knowledge and experience even for advanced riders. Friendly staff, helpful.
Fantastic experience: These guys helped me get through my full A category licence with flying colours, passing both testing modules on first attempt. The training went smoothly, having benefited from the expertise of two awesome and personable instructors, Elliott & James. They enjoy what they are doing and it shows. Could not have asked for a better Rider School. Well done Tizwaz!
It was a pleasure Robert. Hope to see you out and about on your bike soon.
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with tizwaz. I'm so glad James helped me decide to start on an automatic, starting on a manual would have been too hard for me. I learnt on an auto then did a geared lesson, now I'm loving riding my Lexmoto! Thanks Kathryn, James and everyone at Tizwaz!
Fantastic experience: I recently did my CBT with Tizwaz and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, James and Elliot are both excellent teachers and gave clear, precise instruction, have a lot of time and patience for newbie riders and are generally both very friendly. I would happily recommend Tizwaz to anybody looking to do their CBT
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed it didn't feel like a test just felt like a day out on bikes but learning how they work really recommended thank you for the experience!
Negative experience: Very Bad :I do not recommend because you do not pay tizwaz more money if you get same thing from others company cheaper. If you did not get CBT after paid £150 as renewal than they will bring you back for £100.total cost £250.? That's means you have to pay more money unnecessary another point if you are foreigner.I have had bad experience from them after expired my CBT to go back on road and they did not allow me because they want to make more money. I have riding the manual motorcycle last 8 years. I have experience and confidence make me always happy because give up the tizwaz and I achieved renewal CBT from others company . I do not weast my time 5 hours and less Money than £150 with experience instructor who can tell you how is your riding experience before riding on the national speed limit. Do not weast time if you renew your CBT. You should to go others. Who can not weast your time. Because you want to go back road.. Thank you all students. If you go to others DVLA authorised company than you will know where is the difference between them.
Fantastic experience: The absolute best, most informative instructors in the South! I would highly recommend Tizwaz to anybody that wants to learn to ride! Amazing experience and value for money, I would not recommend anybody else. Great local business! Friendly staff with a great mindset for the safety of their students! Learn everything to need to know and more! Great location. Thank you for training me!
Fantastic experience: I had to get my CBT re-done. The experience was far better than the last place I went, very professional, easy going, made me feel confident & comfortable. The instructor is such a great guy, easy to talk to, helps a lot and gives appropriate and good advice. Thankyou.
Fantastic experience: I passed my CBT with Tizwaz and then my DAS for full licence. Excellent instructors, very friendly and informative. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and professional people. They got me through all my tests despite riding not coming naturally to me. Now I've got my full licence, a bike and best of all, a big smile. Thank you Tizwaz, I can't recommend you highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Recently completed my CBT with james, brilliant instructor would recommend to anyone
Fantastic experience: Just done my CBT over the course of two days (14th and 15th October) and so glad I chose Tizwaz Rider Training. My instructor was James, who was absolutely brilliant. James knows his stuff and enjoys educating and training people which really shows when he's looking after you. He explained everything, made sure you got it right and took his time with you. The first day was at the training centre, the second day was a big ride out around Bournemouth and Hengistbury Head which I thoroughly enjoyed. Over the two days i never felt rushed or pressured, my advice is if you dont have any road craft or any experience with motorcycles/scooters/mopeds to do the two day option. Yes it's a bit more money but it's well worth it and from being really nervous about getting on a 125 cc to at the end of day two excited about getting my first bike and being on the road, that's down to these guys and the excellent training. Choice of bikes is fantastic too. They do have helmets, gloves and jackets available but make sure you have at the very least some denim trousers and boots. :)
Fantastic experience: I did my retake of the CBT with James at Tizwaz. It was my fault that I let it expire and hadn't got round to doing my full license. I used a different local instructor for my previous CBT but didn't want to use them again as they had very poor people skills. I was recommended Tizwaz and saw a huge difference in teaching style, people skills and overall experience. It was a great day out, I would most definitely recommend Tizwaz to everyone. I am looking to book in my full license with them soon.
Fantastic experience: James,Chriss and Eliot are very professional and friendly motorcycle driving instructors, they will teach you all the tricks to pass the tests and ride safely on the road after that,I highly recommend Tizwaz.
Fantastic experience: I had the best experience yeah unfortunately the weather was shocking but my instructor James was very professional and would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to do there Cbt very nice bloke easy to get along with and Kathryn was also very helpful they have great deals at there shop thank you so much to the team for there patience and hospitality
Thanks Connor. Reviews like yours makes our jobs seem worthwhile. Its a pleasure to get you out on the road. Have fun with the riding.
Fantastic experience: Just completed my CBT today, and I cannot more highly recommend this company! All the staff are extremely friendly and very informative, ensuring that you’re riding safely. And outside of just the training, Kathryn in their shop can help with any questions regarding gear and equipment. Thanks for all the help guys, and James, I shall see you soon to do my full bike licence!
Fantastic experience: Passed my CBT today. James was so helpful, kind and very real with us. I felt safe at all points and didn't find it as scary as I thought I would! Cheers guys. Really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: Chris and James were great getting me through my CBT today. Very patient and gave enough time to build confidence and ensure I was safe on the road.

Fantastic experience: Did my cbt with tizwaz. Really enjoyed the day. Great training and felt comfortable to take a bike out on the road straight away. Will be going back for my full test.
Fantastic experience: Went out with James today, great experience great guy. Felt completely comfortable with the training and everything was covered in great detail
Fantastic experience: Great place to learn how to ride , James is a great instructor and really takes time to go into every detail and help you gain confidence for the road and also has plenty of advice on bikes , gear and riding and was happy to answer all questions . I wouldy highly recomend this company both the riding school and the shop which is stacked full of bargains. If youre thinking of learning go with these guys
Negative experience: Had one of the worst experience ever learning how to ride a bike here. Elliot didn’t made me feel at ease! I would deffo NOT recommend this school. I would, however, for the CBT. I guess Elliot is used to working with people who ‘get it fast’ because I didn’t. I started with the slow manoeuvres training short before the day of the test and I wasn’t getting it. I was most of the time with my foot on the floor, (U-turn was dreadful). I was getting tired, my riding was getting worse and I only heard: ‘YOU SHOULD BE DOING IT BY NOW!’ Yes, I should, but I couldn’t. Elliot Elliot wouldn’t change the approach and repeat the same instructions all the time. He would go to the other side just to leave ‘alone time?’ to get it right, I guess.Well, that was the day before the test so I asked him whether it was worth it going to the test centre, as I had no chance to pass. His answer, ‘that it would be another riding experience’. Basically the feeling I have after all this time is, that TIZWAZ wanted easy money. I paid, and after sending me to the mod1 test, Elliot thought that would be a good idea to start again from scratch in my 125!! paying again. I complained, their answer was that that was the first complain they have ever had, so the problem was me. I tried again and went to a different school. Honestly, what a difference a teacher can make! I really regret going to TIZWAZ and I have paid this mistake twice, twice the price and half a year later. The shop, on the other hand, is great! Kathryn is such a lovely lady and is always trying to help you.
Fantastic experience: I recently did my CBT with these guys, very thorough, great service and an enjoyable day. I would highly recommend.
Hi Paul Glad you enjoyed your CBT. Hope we can help out further if you have any more biking needs.
Fantastic experience: Had my first CBT today , Was nervous as I've never rode before but the instructor made me feel really comfortable even after a slow start in the morning finally ending the day with a pass :) , he was very friendly and YES I still remember the pointer at the end of the day lol , training is good and precise covers everything you need to know , would really recommend tizwaz, Kathryn who does the admin side has an amazing personaility you will love her.
Thank you for the review. It was my pleasure to meet you. I can't think of anything better than to meet like minded people who have a desire for biking and the fun of the ride. I hope you go on to do more riding and get the full licence and then you can have as much fun as we do. Look forward to seeing you soon in the shop.
Fantastic experience: I did my second CBT here after having completed one 4 years ago in London. A very different experience indeed! The instructor James was friendly, patient and professional and the whole day was fun and hugely informative. Highly recommend Tizwaz!
Fantastic experience: Tizwaz..... Well passed my CBT with James , brilliant instructor and had a good laughs plus very professional, understanding etc.... then went onto my DAS... with Elliott who was also a brilliant down to earth and professional bloke, very helpful in all aspects... passed first time...
