Scottys Motorcycle Training: Reviews

Fantastic experience: Had the best experience with Scotty’s right through, CBT, Mod 1 & 2 in super quick time. I was on a bike learning within a few days of enquiring and Scott worked around my schedule which helped me out massively. I can’t recommend him enough if you’re looking to pass your test. Come test day I knew I’d been taught everything I needed to know to get over the finish line. Absolute class riding school and an all round top bloke, you can’t go wrong

Fantastic experience: Scott is a brilliant instructor and very patient. He has helped me through CBT, mod 1 &2 within 6 weeks. He is very knowledgable and supportive. He adapts to what each individual needs to pass and feel safe and confident on a bike. There’s also the cutest and friendliest dogs to greet you before and after lessons. Thank you Scott

Trish Firman 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I completed my DAS with Scotty, he came very highly recommended to me. I was very nervous and he rapidly calmed my nerves. He is very approachable and helpful, professional whilst still friendly. His teaching is very clear and always knowledgeable when asked questions during debriefing. He also was very calm when mistakes happened (as they do!). I can't recommend him highly enough and will continue to recommend him to anyone that asks.

Fantastic experience: Scott is great down to earth and gives a realistic view of things the way in a way that incorporates the lessons with other people of similar skill lever building a good teamwork etiquette so you can relate to those your learning with even though there’s only scott and two other out at a time. Fantastic experience.

Fantastic experience: I went to Scotty for my Direct Access and passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 on same day, I think that says a lot for the trainer he is. I only passed my CBT last May. He’s firm but fair and only wants the best for you. His favourite say to me was “get your head oot your arse” Would definitely recommend him.

Fantastic experience: Scotty is a fantastic instructor; patient, knowledgeable, clear and detailed instructions with a great sense of humour! His interpersonal skills are brilliant and with a knack to calm me as a very nervous first timer. Recommend highly!

samantha mulholland 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant instructor is scotty. And at 57yrs i was so very nervous at the start of my cbt training but he was so friendly and patient with clear instructions I got through and passed. He gave me so much confidence I came home and went out on my own. Thankyou Scotty s dalgliesh.

Guan-Lin Wu 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Many thanks to Scotty and his instructions. Even though I rode for many years in the US, I was relatively new and unfamiliar with UK roads in general, and completely new to Carlisle. But Scotty was able to guide me in the right direction of riding here. Many thanks to him and the wonderful crew at the local driving centre for finally letting me enjoy riding again.

Mark Riley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructor, very calm and friendly. I was a nervous student and I tend to overthink everything. Scott got me through my Mod 1 and 2 and I would happily recommend him to anyone who wishes to do a motorcycle license. Really great teacher.

Owen Le Voi 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Massive thank you to Scotty, who saw me through both my CBT and DAS. Throughout all the training, he was clear with where I needed to improve and he would always try to show as opposed to just tell, but also gave positive feedback on things I was doing well which meant for a perfect learning experience. The motorbikes are well looked after and great for learning on too! Can't recommend Scottys Motorcycle Training enough.

Danielle Eastham 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a blast learning with scotty, had so much fun. I was so nervous on the first lesson but scotty has a way of calming you down, explaining anything more than once if need be and going over things with you as much as you need. I ended up passing both my Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time around, I wouldn't recommend anyone more to learn with.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructor well worth the travel he made my lessons and test day great. He's a great guy can not recommend highly enough

william rennie 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent tuition, good banter. Passed my CBT, MOD 1&2 and feel like I've actually learned skills to take away instead of just how to pass a test. Highly recommend.

David Palmer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The best in the business, Relaxed through the full journey, makes the learner riding experience so easy, talks to you how you should be talked to, without making you feel like you can't do it, if anyone can get you through any of your tests scotty is your man, I can't praise the bloke enough, he will have you out on the road in no time.

Joe 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Best in the business. He takes what can be a very negative and stressful learning experience and makes it enjoyable and relaxing. Scotty talks to you like an adult and explains things in a way that suits how you learn. He shows you where you're going wrong and how it can be improved rather than just telling you Bikes are new or as new. Couldn't recommend Scotty's motorcycle training more. Thanks very much

Amanda Elphinstone 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Well where do I begin about Scotty's Motorcycle Training! What an amazing person TOP TOP MAN. It took me a long time to find a training school which had a low bike as I am just under 5ft and quite a nervous rider. Scotty was so calm and patient and always went above and beyond to keep my confidence up. I went on to pass my Mod 1 Mod 2 first time. So I would recommend Scotty 200% to everyone. Thanks a million again Scotty. Amanda Elphinstone.

Natasha Barnes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Massive love to Scotty for being patient and supportive throughout, puts absolutely no pressure on you and teaches you to ride safe and well, not just pass a test. His jokes are mediocre but it's made up for I guess by having a bunch of super cute dogs! Highly recommend him as an instructor and I'm grateful for all the advice he's given me going forwards around different bikes and bike maintenance too

Adam Grant 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience and well worth it to get the big bike licence. Scotty is a cracking instructor - patient and an all round good lad. He knows exactly how to get you through the process quickly whilst equiping you with a wealth of knowledge to keep you safe out there. The bikes are really nice to learn on too. Chuffed to bits. Cheers Scotty! Adam

Fantastic experience: Thank you Scotty, got my son through his test first time! Jake found his lessons motivational and got lots of feedback with advice from Scotty on what he needed to do to improve. Jake also really liked the fact he would show Jake himself what to do so he could watch rather than just listen. Scotty was friendly made Jake feel at ease and got his test booked ASAP....thanks again ⭐️

Fantastic experience: We would highly recommend Scottys School Of Motoring. Scott is a very good driving instructor. His calming manner really helped .He was especially good with my son who was nervous and anxious he taught him the skills to pass first time after only a short period of learning. 10 out of 10 .

Donna Henderson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started with Scott the end of January after being with other instructors for over 2 years and felt like I was getting nowhere fast, first lesson with Scott I was a bit nervous but he made me at ease & built my confidence. he is very patient and easy to talk too. So without him teaching me for nearly 2 months I would have never passed 1st time like I did today. Thank you so much Scott for all your help and advice and for believing in me. I would thoroughly recommend Scott for a driving Instructor.

Caitlan Blenkinsop 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Scotty is so laid back, made me feel at ease and went at the pace I wanted to go which really helped me with my anxiety when it came to driving. I started with him scared and not very confident now I’ve just passed my test and feel as though I’ve been driving forever. Truly one of the best instructors out there, I couldn’t of got through it without him!
