Learning to drive with someone that speaks English is always a plus - it makes explanations clearer and can help with setting driving expectations.
Here is our breakdown for learning to drive in Nottingham with a English speaking instructor.
The number of people in the UK that speak English is 65 Million, that is 100% of the population. All Driving Instructors in the UK must speak fluent English.
With a population of 306,000 it is quite diverse. 23% of the population belongs to Black and other minority groups.
Amazing instructor. Keeps calm and cool, but makes sure you're picking up the correct habits to be a safe and confident driver for long after you've passed.
Amazing instructor keeps calm and makes me feel very relaxed and confident.
Solid, reliable and very patient!
I highly recommend Waseem, he's a great instructor. I didn't drive for well over 10 years, never liked it. Waseem is the 3rd instructor I've had over the years and by far the best. He was very calm and very patient. He always explained everything to me in the way I could really understand it, he talked me through the mistakes I've done without making me feel bad. He scheduled our lessons in perfect order to teach me step by step everything I needed, gradually adding to the difficulty and repeating until I got it, always making sure I would pick up correct habits. He gave me confidence to drive. Thank you very much.
You waz are in different league when it comes to number of passes
Excellent instructor! I was lucky that I choose Waseem on Go Roadie web site, when I was looking for an instructor.I haven't been driving for over 10 years.I was scared after I had an accident on bike with car. With Waseem I find a confidence in driving again. He is great in explaining and very patient , and helpful too. He put me at ease. I can recommend Waseem.
I passed my test first time with the help of Waseem. He is extremely patient and good at teaching. His explanation has always been very clear. Highly recommended.
very good instructor
Driving with Waseem was great and he was very patient and understanding. He helped me pass my test first time with only 2 minors. Would recommend to anyone.
A great instructor, helped me get back to test level after not driving for over a year. He really helped build my confidence on the road. Passed first time with only a couple of minors!
Passed first time with 3 minors! Great process in general and a lot of patience!
Waseem was such a helpful and patient instructor. He gives firm, honest feedback but also knows how to laugh/joke with you which is super helpful when you're nervous or stressed. You can tell that Wass is preparing you not just for a test but for real life driving and has given me plenty of advice for after I have passed. Id definitely recommend him to someone, like myself, who had had a few instructors and was struggling to find someone with a good balance of feedback and good humour.
Wass is an excellent instructor and consistently helped me learn to drive, even though we had to stop lessons for long periods of time throughout various lockdowns. Despite all of this however, he was extremely patient and forgiving and I would definitely recommend Wass to anybody looking for a driving instructor.
Waseem was really patient and kind. I had years of previous driving experience with automatic cars in the US / an automatic scooter in Japan, but it was my first time learning manual, and Waseem taught me very patiently and respectfully, helping me gradually build my confidence with manual cars while never skimping on safety. I didn't have access to a car to practice on, so it took me more lessons than I'd hoped to learn manual (14 lessons, as my lessons were also my practice time), but Waseem took me through everything as quickly as I was able to learn! Passed on first try, 1 minor. All in all, Waseem never loses his cool, and I felt safe with him guiding me in the car and my lessons on the whole.
Wass is a fantastic instructor. I had never been behind the wheel before and I was a little nervous, but Wass helped to build and instill a lot of confidence in my driving. Wass is patient, forgiving, will take time to explain things and will give you honest, helpful feedback. He makes sure that you learn at a pace you are comfortable with, without feeling rushed. Unfortunately I had to end my lessons with Wass before being test-ready due to moving, but the skills and advice he has taught me will go a long way in helping me pass my test. If not for moving I gladly would have continued my lessons with Wass. Highly recommended!
Brilliant instructor, patient and helpful. Passed my test first time with 3 minors thanks to him. Couldn't recommend him more, 10/10
Really relaxed but professional and friendly instructor. Always calm and gives detailed instructions not just how to pass your test, but be a safe driver in general. It's not easy learning to drive in your thirties and I had been really anxious about the idea of starting, but Waseem was really great about it and can't fault his instruction at all, definitely highly recommended.
Waseem was always very professional and extremely helpful. He always made sure I was being safe and observant. Previously I struggled with nerves but the lessons always put my mind at ease. I passed my test first time so I couldn't recommend him enough!
I passed first time, he's a very patient and kind instructor, he gives helpful and constructive advice, I would recommend him.
Wass was a brilliant instructor. With his kind, calm manner and expert knowledge I was able to pass first time. I could not recommend him enough.
Waseem was a good driving instructor who covered everything that need to be covered with detailed explanation and makes sure you understand everything before covering different topics of driving. Patient and calm. I would recommend to anyone that wants to learn seriously on how to drive.
Learning from start to finish with Waseem was wonderful. The lessons were informative. Wassem's method of training makes the test day easy, the test went well, I passed my test first time thanks to Waseem. Will always recommend him to anyone.
Passed first time with 0 serious and 0 minors!!! Waseem took a person who was nervous and hesitant about ever driving and made sure that I was okay with each lesson and each technique before we continued. He was always constructive with feedback and let me know when what I was doing was good (and not so good!). A fantastic tutor and someone who I’d be happy to continue with Pass Plus. Through good and bad, Waseem had my back and was supportive going into the test and was excellent about communication for each lesson, both through texts and through fitting me in a busy schedule. Amazing dedication to driving safety and I’m incredibly glad I found him through here. Thank you so much for helping me, Waseem! Couldn’t have done it without you.
I had the privilege of passing my driving test on my first attempt with only one minor fault, Throughout my driving lessons, Waseem consistently made me feel confident and at ease behind the wheel. He covered every aspect of driving, from basic manoeuvres to complex traffic situations. If you are looking for a driving instructor who will teach you everything you need to know I highly recommend choosing Waseem. You will not be disappointed!
I passed my test on the first attempt with only 3 minors thanks to Waseem. He is a fantastic teacher, he’s extremely patient, calm and reassuring which made learning to drive a much easier time for me! Cannot recommend him enough, if you’re looking for an instructor then absolutely look no further. Thank you so much for all your help, Wass!
Waseem is a great instructor, passionate in giving lessons, answering questions, being patient when you make mistakes. He is also a high standard instructor that not only ask for your pass, but to drive safety in your entire life. Responsive. I would definitely recommend Waseem as your instructor.
I finally passed my driving test after failing earlier in the year with another instructor. It took just 22 hours for Waseem to turn me from an extremely nervous driver into a safe and confident one. Every lesson he would provide honest feedback and targets for the next session. He corrected all the bad habits I had picked up from previous instructors whilst educating me on why these were dangerous. Out of the three instructors I have had Waseem is the only one I would fully recommend.
Before Was i was terrified of driving and slowly slowly he desensitised me to the fear of driving - he is very calm and very understanding and never gets annoyed. I learnt in a completely new city which is hard but was made it easy but Was - definitely recommend
My driving instructor was fantastic! They helped me refresh my driving skills and adapt to UK roads with patience and clear guidance. Their friendly approach boosted my confidence, and I felt well-prepared for the nuances of driving here. Highly recommend for a positive experience in refining driving skills!
Amazing driving instructor !! Very calm, reassuring and supportive but also gives great honest and constructive feedback. Thank you for your guidance and encouragement which has helped my driving improve massively Highly recommend to anyone looking for an instructor
I couldn't have asked for a better driving instructor than Wass! From the moment I started my lessons with him back in October, I knew I was in good hands. Wass' calm demeanor instantly put me at ease behind the wheel, which was crucial for me as a nervous learner driver. His teaching style is clear and concise, making even the most challenging maneuvers seem manageable. He takes the time to understand his students' individual needs and tailors each lesson accordingly, ensuring steady progress and confidence building. Thanks to Wass' encouragement, I now feel like a confident and capable driver. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a driving instructor who goes above and beyond to ensure success. Thank you, Wass, for everything!!!! Tom
I had an excellent experience with Waseem as my driving instructor. From day one, he was incredibly patient, professional, and supportive. He made sure I understood each concept thoroughly and always provided constructive feedback to help me improve.
Would highly recommend Wass, he is an excellent instructor, very patient and always makes you feel confident on the road. With a first time pass I can’t thank him enough
5 Stars Highly Recommend! I had a fantastic experience learning to drive with Wass. From the very first lesson, he was both patient and encouraging. Wass made sure I felt comfortable behind the wheel, explaining everything in a clear and easy-to-understand way. Whether it was teaching me my manoeuvres or making me feel confident on the road, he was always calm, supportive, and focused on helping me succeed and put up with my many attempts and failures when driving. What I appreciated the most was how much he made sure I was fully prepared for my driving test. I passed on my first attempt, and I couldn’t have done it without his guidance. I highly recommend Pass with Wass to anyone looking for a professional, skilled, and approachable driving instructor. Thank you again for everything!
Honestly if it wasnt for mike i dont think id ever have passed! Hes the kindest and motivated person ive ever met. I cant thank him enough for getting me to pass! 100% the best!
Amazing instructor, very professional but also likes to have a chat and joke which makes you feel at ease and comfortable whilst behind the wheel. Very helpful and Easy to understand, also adapts to your driving skills.
Fantastic instructor! So patient and mike makes you feel extremely comfortable l. Would recommend highly.
Omg the best instructor ever. Started my lessons in April and I have just passed my test. Mike is so patient and explains things in a way that you can understand.

After having my first driving lesson with mike last week, I would highly recommend him, I have had previous instructors before and my nerves have got the better of me, but after driving a little and talking with mike he reassured me and brought my confidence back! I look forward to carrying on my lessons with Mike!👍🏻
Mike is absolutely brilliant, So patient, caters to your learning style, goes above and beyond for you and is a great laugh! Very passionate about what he does and getting the best result for you. Made me feel at ease, believe in myself and helped me beat my driving nerves! I 100% recommend.

I am grateful for Mike's wisdom, patience, and guidance. He has helped me a lot and corrected mistakes I never knew I had. His advice was invaluable and helped me relax on the day of my test. Would highly recommend his services.
Mike is a fantastic instructor - he is friendly and eases you into lessons straightaway by showing an interest in your personal life and incorporating that into the way he teaches, making it relevant and easier to understand. I had 40+ hours worth of lessons with a different instructor and never felt ready for my test but after only a handful of lessons with Mike, i booked my test and passed first time!
Mike was very patient, informative and praised the things I did well as well as giving constructive criticism to my errors.
Mike is good in teaching driving lessons,easy and well explained .
Mike was a great instructor. I started my lessons in April 2019, and was ready for my test by November 2019. Unfortunately, due to my nerves, I didn’t pass until January 2020. Mike was so patient and understanding. He explains things in a way that suits the learner. I have recommended him to friends and family
Very clear and easy to understand,
Mike was amazing. He taught me everything I needed to know with great detail and I would definitely recommend him to friends and family!

Amazing instructor! Made driving really enjoyable as well as helping me progress quickly despite lockdown. He also introduced me to websites and insurance policies which have become really helpful in making sure you are a confident driver- couldn't recommend him enough!
Highly recommend Alby! He is motivating, punctual, gives you confidence and makes learning to drive a positive and pleasant experience. Can’t thank Alby enough for all his help! His first time pass rate speaks for its self.
Alby is such an amazing driving instructor! Through the hard times during Covid and lockdown he has been a constant support in helping me learn to drive! His positive attitude goes a long way in driving lessons and gives you the confidence you need to become a good driver! Highly recommend!
Positive: Quality Alby is a wonderful driving instructor, he is so patient and kind. If you struggle he supports you and fully explains each driving manoeuvre/ technique. Thank you to Alby for helping me to pass first time !
3 months ago Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality Brilliant instructor, really helped me prepare for my test and helped me achieve my goal to pass before my 18th! Really recommend :)
a day agoNEW Positive: Professionalism, Quality Where do I start? First of all, cracking bloke, he is so calm and patient with you but also can have a good laugh while driving. He will make sure you are 100% ready for your test before he sends you off- no hit or miss! Prepares you not only for what’s going to be on your test but what you will face in your real life! Would absolutely recommend if you want to not only pass your test, but actually learn how to drive properly.
My experience has been amazing from start to finish making sure I would be safe on my own and bringing real life aspects in to my lessons rather than just teaching me how to pass my test. Would highly recommend to anyone needing an instructor.
Wahid is patient, let’s you take the wheel when he believes your confident and in control of your surroundings and safety, also he teaches you step by step in a simple way until you become use to the car and road. I’ve have at least four different driving instructors and hands down Wahid is the best of the best.
Wahid is an amazing person and instructor. He gets you all the required level of skill and confidence to pass the driving test with flying colors. Despite tight schedules he managed to find time to prepare myself to pass in a short period of time given I had slight experience of driving but not here in UK. I’m be looking forward to get my wife’s lessons with him in sometime as I have passed just now. I would highly recommend to others. Good luck everyone.
Wahid was a great friendly instructor. Always kept a light mood made the lessons fun and also was able to make me understand anything i had a problem with. Any mistakes made he would go through and help me rectify them. would definitely recommend to learners.
Wahid was a perfect teacher, very easy to talk to, very patient and most importantly just knows what he’s doing giving you the best chance at passing first time and being confident on test day.
Would highly recommend Wahid, explained things well, had a nice manner about him, and we went over all the likely routes and manoeuvres and I felt well prepared for my test.
Wahid was a great instructor and just the type of person I was after to teach me how to drive. He was patient, lessons were always made to be fun and you knew that there was going to be a laugh had. I can’t recommend Wahid enough if you’re looking for an instructor as he is everything you will be looking for.
On time, strict in the right way, teaches situation based, I would highly recommend.
Mizan was very patient and strict when necessary, he gave me the confidence over time to handle my nerves and pass first time, thanks again!
Absolutely brilliant instructor ,he's got me passed first time along with my partner to Would highly recommend. Thankyou Mizan.
I recommend Mizan because my driving improved a lot. He was patient but also very strict when I had any mistakes. I learnt a lot and passed my test today!!!
Mizan is a great instructor. I had booked 3 lessons with him. And it was so useful that I cleared my test in first attempt. In a very short time period he explained all the basics which were necessary to clear the test. Highly recommended 👍. Once again Mizan thank you very much for all your efforts.
A great instructor who explains concepts well in a manner that is easy to understand and commit to memory. He is also very patient and helpful and makes learning to drive an enjoyable experience.
Mizan is such a great instructor. I passed my test first time with him. Highly recommended
What a great bloke, laid back, funny and a good teacher, highly recommended. Also loves chocolate lol
Mike is truly a top-tier driving instructor. His ability to break down complex concepts into clear, concise explanations is second to none. He’s patient, and he never hesitates to revisit key points until you’re fully confident in your understanding. Our lessons were not only educational but also enjoyable — I genuinely looked forward to each session, and we had many great conversations along the way. The affordability of his lessons is impressive, offering incredible value for the level of expertise he provides. Whether you're a new driver, need a refresher, or want to fine-tune specific skills, I highly recommend Mike to anyone in the Barwell/Hinckley area of Leicestershire. His vast knowledge, calm demeanor, and endless patience make him a standout instructor. Thanks to Mike’s excellent guidance, I was able to pass my driving test in Hinckley with zero driver faults. That, in itself, should speak volumes. 10 out of 10 would recommend to EVERYONE! Last of all I would like to thanks GoRoadie for helping find Mike.
I first started in her white spotty car and loved driving but it caused me major headaches and pain after suffering from two forms of meningitis 2 years ago so Tina offered me to try the Automattic and that was the best thing i ever did!! . I love my adventure in the little red spotty car and cant wait til my next lesson . I was ready to give in but Tina helped me past it . Shes a pure pleasure! Amazing understanding teacher that never gives up on her students. I recommend her highly and have to many students. On bad days she gets me into my lessons and i feel best behind that wheel . Tina belives in me even when i dont. I wanted experience so on my lesson one day we drove to skegness and back. Great day i admit . I also did the spotty car relay and plan to again next year in my own car if i pass by then. If you feel like your ready to give in talk to her � never give up! Love every minute of my lessons. Like going out with a friend . You won't find any more understanding/timeless/trustworthy/willing teacher anywhere else . Shes one of a kind . Thanks Tina for everything xx
After having a 3 year break from driving lessons in a Manual with a dodgy instructor tina managed to get me to pass first time after just 6 lessons in her automatic. She's an amazing teacher, so logical and straight forward, lovely woman to talk to and really easy to relax with. You don't feel under pressure and any mistakes or questions are answered in a way you can understand. If I had to do it all over again I'd chose Tina every single time. I'm actually going to miss our Wednesdays x
So so happy that I passed my driving test today, first time!!! I was terrified of driving and have been putting it off for years. But Tina has been absolutely amazing with me. She pushed me gently during each lesson and helped me gain so much confidence on the road (and in life too tbh). Her common sense approach made it so simple to understand the skills needed for driving. I really couldn't have done this without her rational, straight forward way of teaching. Thanks so much Tina! You are an absolutely amazing teacher....and a real gem of a lady!
Tina is a great instructor, she is very patient! I tried to do manual but I just couldn't get the hang of it but she would always help and give me pointers. been with fab driving a while and just today I completed my Auto test and it's all thanks to Tina! Thank you so much! :D
John was a fantastic instructor from start to finish. He made me feel very comfortable and remained calm at all times. I would recommend John to anyone who is a learner driver, he is very experienced and will help you however he can to pass your test!
John is a great instructor, he stays very calm with you and guides you through each stage of driving at your pace. John will make you feel at ease and make your driving experience feel very positive. He really helped me transition to the road after i completed Young Driver and was ready to move on with my learning.
John is a great guy, focused, motivated and pays close attention to detail . He is amenable, conscientious and flexible, tailoring each driving programme to suit the student's individual needs. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Paul has been absolutely amazing in teaching me to drive. After trying two different instructors prior to Paul, he was a breath of fresh air. So patient and so understanding and really keen to get you ready for your test! I built up some anxiety due to my past instructors and he helped me to completely overcome that and regain my confidence behind the wheel. I passed my test first time and two weeks later, I’m driving down the M1 like I’ve been driving for years.
Paul is such a calm and wonderful driving instructor, he's so insightful and encouraging and helped me pass with only 4 faults after a intensive course of driving lessons. I highly recommend him to everyone and anyone :)
Excellent instructor! I went through 2 other driving instructors over the past year until I was taught by A6 Driver training over the Christmas holidays – very patient, flexible and made me feel very comfortable, couldn’t recommend more!
I must give Paul 5 stars because he didn’t only get me ready for my test but got me ready for the roads. A true driving teacher and not a con man out for easy money. I really can’t recommend Paul enough as he has got me and my partner through our tests. Thank you once again Paul you have changed our lives with getting us on the road!
Paul is an amazing instructor. He is very experienced and got me ready to be on the road straight away. Couldn’t thank him enough for getting me pass my test first time.
John made sure I was always able to have a lesson when best suited me. The teaching style was great: there were clear lesson plans and an explanation of what each manoeuvre and exercise would require and the debrief at the end of the lesson allowed me to think about my mistakes and where I could improve for next time.
My experience with John Kerr and Drive and Pass: I've had a countless number of instructors in my time learning to drive, none have ever come close to the professionalism and expert level of knowledge held by John Kerr. Unlike a lot of instructors, John prides himself in making you the best driver you can be. You're not just trained to be at pass standard, instead, you are trained to tackle any situation the roads have for you. At the end of each lesson, there would be an in-depth debrief to discuss how you thought the lesson went and where you could improve. John consistently made sure that every minute of the lesson was used to effectively to most improve your driving and often went overtime to make sure you would leave the lesson feeling great. As well as taking it very seriously, John was a very friendly instructor and his humor made the lessons that much more enjoyable. I would like to thank John for going that extra mile for me (excuse the pun!). Cheers again, Haidar
John'a highly detailed and logistical thinking is exactly what i needed in order to pass my test. After I failed my first test and my old tutor had to stop teaching because of an operation I was suggested John. He has a keen eye for what people do wrong and helped me gain confidence behind the wheel. If i feel like i ever lose confidence while driving, it's highly likely i will return to John for more tutoring

John was an absolutely amazing instructor. He was always calm, determined and passionate for helping me in every circumstance. I would highly recommend him if you really want to pass the driving test. Thank you
Really good, gave great corrections and was really encouraging.
John was a superb driving instructor. He was gentle, patient and calm. He was a clear instructor and helped us to pass in 4 months.
I admire John’s professionalism and his passion for driving, which he uses to teach his pupils. He has been a brilliant instructor and has been pointing out every single detail of my drive correcting my errors to make me a perfect driver. His method of communication is calm and his explanations are very easy to understand and remember. I have had a wonderful experience learning from John and would definitely recommend him to anyone interested.
John was a really great instructor. He was always calm and explained everything clearly. I have a specific learning difficulty (dyspraxia/dyslexia) that made learning to drive a bit harder than usual, but John was very patient and kind with teaching. His mock tests were also very helpful and fully prepared me for test day. I would genuinely recommend learning with John, if you want to be a confident driver once you’ve passed your test (as I am now)!
John is a great driving instructor. Previously failing my test in London , John was able to guide and fix all my mistakes and bad habits that were developed from my previous driving. He was patient, motivating and flexible with lesson timing according to my requirements. He greatly improved my driving and allowed me be to more confident on the road. I would strongly recommend John for new driving learners.

John was a very good driving instructor who guided me to a pass with 3 minors. I had previously failed my test and John helped me have a smoother and calmer driving style. He helped ensure I had no bad habits and raised the standard of my driving significantly I would highly recommend John for anyone looking for driving lessons

Usually I don't write reviews, but I really wanted to write a review about John and his driving lessons. I am 43 years old and I am a fully qualified driver, but I don’t have much driving experience in the UK and especially in busy towns/cities. My work office moved, and I needed to start driving to get to the office. So, I found John’s details on the internet and messaged him. I explained the situation that I need quite urgently driving lessons. So, he got back to me straight away, and I got even two lessons on next week. I was quite nervous at the first few lessons, and I did have quite a few bad habits which John pointed out straight away and we started working on them: harsh breaking or I tend to use breaks often when I don’t need, instead of using a clutch. We worked on clearance and meeting a lot because I didn’t have much experience in this area. I’ve had 6 lessons so far and I can feel that John managed to bring my confidence back and I already managed to go to the office on my own. I decided to carry on with his lessons, because I can see that I am still learning many vital skills from John which can be very helpful in the future. Without any doubt I would highly recommend John for anyone who is looking for driving lessons as a beginner or who needs to build their confidence back in driving. John has an excellent teaching approach. He is amazingly calm, patient, very polite, and professional. Even I already have my driving license, but he never commented that I should know this or that if I am qualified. He understood my situation and was very supportive. Thank you very much, John!
John was amazing he really helped me and gave me all the information and techniques needed to pass
John was amazing! He was patient and professional and allowed me to learn in a safe, comfortable environment.
John Was a great driving instructor for me, he really pushed me every lesson to the perfect amount where it wasn’t too difficult yet not too easy, he also really helped with putting in extra hours for me when getting closer to my test date, which was a squeeze, for example working hours over a bank holiday weekend, these extra hours allowed me to fix errors i was making and be able to pass first time with just 3 minors. I would definitely recommend john as your driving instructor!
A really positive experience. John has helped me iron out several issues such as clearance, pulling up on the left and approach to roundabouts. At the end of every session we create a detailed breakdown of the lesson and then decide what to work on for the next session which is very helpful. Always able to find availability each week for my lessons.
John is a fantastic instructor . Really patient and helpful . I was really nervous when I first went on the roads in a car and thought I would never get it. However John really took me back to basics and slowly but surely he built up my confidence to enable me to become a really confident driver. So if your a first timer John is the person to get you through them first few lessons and get you driving confidently in no time , thanks John.
Great driving instructor, helped me get a first time pass by making sure I approached my driving with a slower pace, something I had struggled with. Always calm and gives clear instructions when driving. Highly recommended!
John is a great driving instructor, I was with him from a beginner with no driving experience, he covered every topic well and made sure I was ready for my test in time. I passed first time with 4 minors, we did mock tests to find out my weak points and amended them for my real test, I would definitely recommend John as a driving instructor if you are planning on taking your driving lessons.
John was great! Helped me so much during my time driving, especially with no experience and alot of anxiety he helped me get through it and eventually pass.
John has been a fantastic driving instructor. He was always supportive and greatly improved my ability to emerge from junctions. I would recommend him to anyone who is learning to drive.
John is a great driving instructor and I would recommend to anyone that is wanting to learn to drive. He has given me so much confidence from day one. He is very easy to get along with, is very patient and explains everything so clearly. We had a few laughs during our lessons and I am very grateful for everything. Thanks John
I started taking refresher lessons with John having already passed my driving tests. I had not driven for four years and didn't feel confident or comfortable behind the wheel anymore. Essentially I had to relearn how to drive and John immediately put me at ease and explained how best to go about getting back into the swing of driving. We created a plan together, both from the first lesson and every lesson thereafter, which ultimately John wanted to be led by myself. This entailed what aspects of driving I wanted to go over or felt I needed to do to again in order to regain my confidence, whether this be relearning clutch control or navigating roundabouts. John also offered his own suggestions for gaps in my driving. What I really appreciated about John's methods of teaching was that he was always patient and understanding, yet fair with his assessments of my driving and with pushing me out of my comfort zone in a safe and controlled manner. Furthermore, I liked that John always asked to what extent I wanted him to interject during my driving - for example, this could be fifty per cent of the time or not at all. I also welcomed John explaining what we were going to do and things to look out for before we started each lesson. Similarly we dissected the drive after each lesson to iron out any errors for the future and also set out a plan of action for the next lesson. I can tell John has a wealth of knowledge and experience from years of driving and teaching so you feel in very safe hands. I never once felt in danger and John is great at making you feel at ease and a calming presence if you're anxious about driving. He is also always up to date with the highway code and new implementations or revisions which is often an overlooked aspect of becoming a responsible driver by instructors. I could not recommend John enough, both for someone looking to regain their confidence behind the wheel or driving for the first time and preparing for a test. John has brought back my confidence in driving and instilled into me good habits that I will take forward after being a shadow of my former self in the car.

John is very patient and explains everything throughly. He helped a lot with my confidence on roundabouts and tricky junctions. His friendly and professional training is valuable and helped me if I needed to rework any areas of issues. I would highly recommend!
John is the best instructor out of the three instructors I tried. I was a very anxious and nervous driver. John was perfect for me as he is extremely calm, patient and very professional. Other reasons why I would recommend John to anyone are: (1) always came prepared with a lesson plan to maximise the time and help with progress (2) regularly updated the sheet with all of the driving skills a pupil should develop (3) explained things clearly using real-life reference points (4) the lessons were challenging which helped me develop my skills faster (5) great value for money (6) helped me with my confidence. I truly believe John cares about his students and wishes them to be great drivers for life, and not just for everyone to pass their test (although that too!). After lessons with John, the driving test felt like a breeze thanks to the high standard of John’s teaching. I passed with only two minors.
John was great. Helped me pass after 15 lessons, was very good at explaining roundabouts and reversing
John has been a great driving instructor. His lessons were very focused around what I needed to improve on which was very helpful as it came closer to my test. John was very good at going over things in detail and made sure I fully understood which helped me make less mistakes. I feel confident now about driving on my own - something I was always worried about, but I feel John has covered everything needed. Thank you very much John!
John was brilliant. He was calm and collected and made sure I fully understood everything before moving onto another aspect of driving. He greatly improved my struggles at junctions and also reacting to road signs. I thoroughly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a driving instructor.
John is such an amazing instructor! I have learnt so much from him not only to drive well but to also have confidence on the road!
John was brilliant. Stuck with me for 11 months and went over problem areas multiple times allowing me to past first time. Would really recommend
John was extremely patient and helpful. His attention to detail and knowledge allowed me to overcome any issues I had when learning. This led to me being able to pass first time.
John was amazing, really helped me out of a rut i thought i would never get out of. I came to him feeling so beat down and discouraged about my driving ability and he built my confidence right up from nothing, Can’t thank him enough, Dan
I had come to john after driving for a year having 2 previous instructors. As a result my driving had some flaws and I was struggling a lot with my confidence and was very doubtful of myself. John was able to find the cause of my confidence issues and we were able to work through them and rework my knowledge, making me a more competent driver that was able to pass first time. John was brilliant at being flexible with my university timetable and was always able to accommodate times I was available.
John is a great instructor. Always kept calm in my lessons and took the time to explain things through with me to ensure i understood them well enough. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor who won’t make you feel stressed at any point in your lessons but will also ensure you are well prepared for your test.
John was very understanding and patient with my mistakes. He made sure that the driving lessons covered my weaknesses leading to overall improvement.
He was great, very methodical and makes you very prepared and confident going into your test. I knew everything like it was second nature
Adiel is top driving instructor he made my son pass his driving test in just 2 and hald months. I would recommend Adiel to anyone who needs quality driving and fast pass. 🔝🔝
Learning to drive was a daunting experience. Adiel made it simple and stuck with the basic fundamentals. Repetition, nurturing, and reassurance where what really got me through. 5 stars all the way!
I couldn’t recommend Adam enough. He was helpful and made me feel really comfortable while learning to drive. I passed my test 1st time with only 4 minors and it was all down to him! I wouldn’t recommend any other instructor!!
Often turned up late, changed test car at last minute, did not return cancelled lesson fees as promised. No stars
Brilliant lesson as always, Duane is thoughtful and constructive in his instruction as well as being thoroughly likable. highly recommended!
Really enjoyed my first lesson with Duane. Found Duane to be really at ease and down to earth which made the whole expensive much more enjoyable. Looking forward to my next lesson and to master the super sensitive brake pedal!
Polite courteous took time to explain everything. Very helpful.
Used Phil to pass my test first time!! Phil is an awesome instructor who's always up for a laugh whilst giving you the best driving experience possible at the same time. He always asks you what YOU would like to do, to try and help you strengthen any weak points you may have, to make you the best driver as quickly as possible. No messing about, an awesome learners car and a great laugh at the same time; can ask for no more of an instructor. 5 stars from me, would recommend him to anybody without a doubt. If you want to pass, go to Phil!!! Thank you :)
I passed my test with Phil as well an extra motorway lesson. He was always very supportive, makes you feel at ease behind the wheel & instills confidence. Combines a relaxed environment with efficiently learning what you need to. Brilliant instructor, would highly recommend!
I felt like I have taken right decision by choosing Phil as my driving instructor, he is so patient in explaining, gives you good valuable suggestions to improve the driving, he always gives you examples when practicing the driving, which will help to improve your driving skills, within no time I passed the practical driving test with the help of Phil. finally I would say, Phil is an excellent driving instructor.
With my First instructor I kept constantly driving around and doing no maneuvers I didn’t even go on a around-about and I must say that I had at least 12-15 hours of just doing the same thing every lesson and this was making me think that its gunnna take agers to past going at this rate!! So I decided to give AA a call and got put with this fantastic driving instructor!! On my first lesson I went on all the round-abouts in Worksop and just didn’t expect that at all. He supports and encourages you all the way! He says it how it is! Most of all he gives you confidence in your driving and just overall makes you feel safe! Through out each lesson he gives you straight trufull feedback and works on your week points. This more than what you need for a Driving Instructor, he provides the best service and the best experience. If you want to learn quick, and get the most out of each lesson then I would highly recommend Phill! DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!! Give Phil Long-melton a call!! :) :-)
David is a great driving instructor and is very patient and allways friendly. David is always reliable and I never once felt like I had a bad driving lesson. I would recommend David to anyone wanting to learn to drive. I would also recommend David if you are very nervous or anxious about learning to drive because he will always work at your speed.
My experience with David accords with the other positive reviews he has been given. The quality of tuition he provided was excellent throughout. I especially appreciated his ability to give feedback at appropriate times, rather than when it potentially lower my confidence. He ensured it was positive and useful to my development as a driver. It also goes without saying he is a lovely man, who is personable and patient, and is genuinely interested in helping you progress. He was flexible in arranging lessons and would take time to answer my questions and would focus on the areas I wanted to. Overall, having had several instructors I can confidently say he was the best and I would highly recommend him!
Amazing driving instructor wouldn't have passed first time if it wasn't for David, would definitly recommend him. He never put any pressure on and allowed me to learn at my own pace. He's great instructor and bloke to talk to Thank you David :D
What a great instructor! Always positive and patient. Had a good chuckle each lesson and was happy to go with my 'scientific' approach to driving. I couldn't have passed first time if he hadn't. Thank you!!
Paul is a fantastic instructor with a calm and friendly manner and was great with dealing with nerves and confidence issues. He is reliable, flexible and has an excellent eye for personalising his teaching to suit different learners. With his advice I passed everything first time. Highly recommended if you want a quality experience tailored to meet your needs
I can't thank Paul enough for helping me to pass my driving test! I had a bad experience with a past instructor and he restored my confidence in the first lesson I had with him! He is a very calm and patient instructor, & I would highly recommend!!! Thank you again
A lot of at patience for his learners, especially someone like me
honesty can't thank Paul enough! Such a kind,patient instructor who made me feel very comfortable and always believed in my ability to pass my test. I would strongly recommend Paul to anyone who is interested in learning how to drive.

Thank you for teaching me!! even after how much of a nervous reck i have officially passed! I suggest Reena to anyone. She has great patience with her students and will get you there x
Amazing instructor who helped me build confidence and always made sure I was comfortable during lessons with discussions on the end with any problems Or questions I would have. Thanks for all your help Reena! X
Reena is great instructor and made me feel comfortable throughout the learning process and within the weeks leading up to my test. Thank you Reena!
Brilliant instructor with great amount of skill. Has a fantastic friendly approach.
I found Xcel driver training after having a bad experience with my previous instructor. Beanie was fantastic in giving me my confidence back, the belief I can do it and reminded me why I began learning to drive in the 1st place! I ultimately passed my driving test today 1st time with 0 Minor driving Faults! Thanks again guys for helping my fulfil my potential.
Rachel she amazing instructor she give me full help to pass my PDI thanks Rachel.
I took lessons with Xcel and Rachel is the nicest most patient person I have ever met. She was so calm to the point she calmed me. I passed first time with the help and confidence Rachel gave me. I also gained a forever friend xx can't thank you enough Rachel x
Steve has got so much patience. I drove an automatic car for a few years as I never believed I could do manual, but having a career change that required a manual licence I didn't have much time to learn. I had just under 2 months worth of lessons with Steve and managed to pass on my first test. A big thank you to Steve for everything, would really recommend.
Steve is the 3rd instructor I've had and by far the best. He has a calm manner, won't be alarmed by any mistakes pupils might make, making you as a student feel at ease which is important to those that get nervous while driving, myself included. I found that Steve's approach to lessons can only leave you prepared or over-prepared for the test, challenging students on every lesson to a degree more demanding than I found the test to be. This was in stark contrast to my first test where I was underprepared and my weaknesses hadn't be ironed out, something Steve makes a point of doing. He is very generous with his time, allowing lessons to go on for as much as 30 mins longer than you've paid for if he has the time give. Finally, Steve was recommended to me by a number of good friends and they were all right. He is a fantastic choice of driving instructor in the Nottingham area and for anyone that wants to learn, they'd be fools not to try Steve out. Thanks for the chats, laughs and license Steve! Best of luck in your future endeavours.
Steve is an great driving instructor he is calm and very patient.he puts alot of time and effort into everything he does can be very funny but will also put you in your place when needed . he put up with alot from me and helped with my nerves (the best he could) and made me feel comfortable. i highly recommend him i would not have chosen any other instructor.
After putting off driving for a number number of years, never liking the thought of driving or ever thinking I would be able to....I have just passed my test and its all thanks to Steve. He was brilliant. He made me feel at ease straight away and always asked what I wanted to to, never forcing me to do anything I wasnt confortable or capable of doing. Steve was always calm and took time to talk through any mistakes that were made with out making me feel like a failure and gave me confidence to keep trying. All in all a super driving instructor. Thank you.
Steve was a great driving instructor, calm and organised and made a point of spending extra time making sure I got the most out of every lesson. Friendly and thorough, Steve made sure I was at a level not just so I could pass my test, but that I could drive with confidence afterwards. Thanks for the laughs and banter as we drove around. I would definitely recommend.
I cannot recommend highly enough the work of Steve at Red Amber Go. In fact, I already have recommended him to several friends, two of whom are now learning with him and are very happy with his teaching. One thing I've learnt during almost five years at medical school is that being able to teach well is a particular skill quite apart from how intelligent, skillful or experienced the teacher is. Thankfully Steve has all of these qualities. From the outset he encouraged my growing confidence and guided me through analysing my own driving to work out where I needed more practice. We always had one eye on passing the test and the other on real-world driving once I passed - examiners can tell the difference and so will you.
Couldn't have asked for a better instructor, Jamie made me feel relaxed at all times. Never shy of complimenting you when you do something good and doesn't make you feel like an idiot when you do something wrong, I've had other instructors that do. All round amazing.
Jamie was a really really good instructor for me, I passed with as little as 12 hours! He teaches very well and has a good sense of humour which made the lessons very enjoyable whilst learning at the same time. Would 10/10 recommend Jamie to anyone wanting to learn to drive! Top man.
I started driving in September and passed first time in January (first available test date). Jamie is an excellent instructor, he uses his experience of driving and knowledge of instructing to tailor to your learning needs. He identifed where I was struggling and focused on teaching me the skills I needed to improve. I found Jamie to be very lively and friendly but also incredibly competent. Cheers mate :)
I have been taking driving lessons with Jamie for a few months now and he is amazing! I was extremely nervous at first but he did everything to talk me through it and calm my nerves, now i'm looking to take my theory test ready for my practical. Thanks Jamie!
As a Type 1 Diabetic, Ben was always aware of my disability and accommodated my need to bring along some medication and equipment during lessons. He even delivered it back to me, for free, once I had forgotten some of it in his car. While learning to drive the experience was never scary, I felt comfortable throughout, even when first starting on roundabouts, motorways, etc.which you'd assume to be most daunting. I learned quickly due to Ben never being overbearing, distract… See more
Can’t thank Ben enough! Learnt to drive with Ben after a bad experience with another instructor from another company. Ben was amazing and taught me all of the things which my previous instructor failed to do. Had a great experience with Able 2 Drive and passed first time. Would definitely recommend them!
Very Friendly instructor who knows what he is doing... Taught me my Pass Plus and got my brother through his test... Highly recomended 🙂
Jon is excellent, very patient, friendly, reliable & honest. would definitely recommend . x
I had my lessons with Jon, he's a really good teacher who can adapt to how you like to learn pretty quickly. He's very calm, friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. I was able drive home on the first lesson and improved with every lesson taken. Highly recommended!
Had a great experience of learning to drive with you. Ben is a great instructor, patient and talkative and makes the lessons enjoyable. Got me through my test in not many lessons I highly recommend to anyone learning to drive in the area. Thank you!
He is a fantastic driving instructor! Tim was very patient and calm throughout the lessons, as well as fully preparing me, not only for the driving test, but also for driving after passing my test. For these reasons, I always recommend Tim to friends and family.
I do not hesitate to recommend Tim as a driving instructor. He is patient and supportive and draws on his extensive knowledge of driving and teaching. I felt completely supported in every lesson, and Tim knew when to push me to succeed. His flexible approach to teaching meant that we focused on my (many!) weaknesses during the lessons. I passed first time with only a few minor faults, mainly as a result of Tims careful and thorough guidance. More importantly, I am a more confident and safe driver. Thank you, Tim.
Tim has been a good and understanding instructor. I would recommend him to anyone.
Scott was a great driving instructor, really lovely and friendly, got me through all my super random driving quirks! would deffo recommend.
Couldn't recommend Checkmate Driver Training enough! I tried to learn when I was 17 and hated driving, but 12 years later after learning with Scott I passed first time! Would recommend to anyone, but especially if like me you're a bit older and/or nervous about learning. Thanks for everything!
Scott was my driving instructor who I was introduced by his partner mother whom I work with and what can I say I couldn’t of picked a better person or shall I say now new friend to teach me the ropes of driving. I have had many driving lessons in the past but never followed through with it as I was always struggling to get through the theory part of the test. I passed my theory at the end of December 2017 and started straight away in January. Scott put me at ease straight away he saw what I knew back then and showed me new techniques how I can improve and I finally past my test last week after my 3rd attempt. I highly recommend Scott and his driving school he got me passed within 7 months and has now changed my life forever for the better Thank you Scott!!!!
Scott was my driving instructor and I couldnt of picked a better person to teach me to drive I had never stepped foot behind the wheel of a car so I was nervous but Scott put me at ease straight away he was very kind and understanding and I had started to look forward to my lessons as I felt like I had gained a friend I highly recommend Scott and his driving school he got me passed within 6 months and has changed my life forever thankyou Scott xxx
100% 5*! My instructor Scott is extremely friendly and lovely. He is patient and keeps you calm and relaxed. I couldn’t recommend enough, passed my test first time down to Scott’s skilled teaching techniques. Amazing, thank you!! :)
Scott has been a absolute legend with me, I suffer from anxiety and I cant stress how patience this guy has been with me, I couldn't have wished for a better instructor to get me through this challenge.
Rob is an extremely personable, understanding and patient instructor. His calm demeanour helped me to relax, feel confident and overcome my nerves and fears. Learning in this environment allowed me to progress from strength to strength very quickly, leading through to me passing my driving test on my first attempt. Rob is also very thorough and intuitive in his teaching, tailoring every lesson around my specific needs and worries. If there was something I was unsure about he was always reasurring, providing helpful points of improvement, encouragement and letting me repeat any exercise till I felt comfortable. Overall it has been a privilege to learn with Rob and I would highly recommend him as an instructor.
Rob is an exceptional driving instructor. I was really nervous about learning to drive because I struggle with anxiety and focus problems, but Rob could not have been better equipped to teach me. His extensive experience dealing with all kinds of different people, which he backs up with constant self-education on the many conditions affecting his pupils, means he was able to provide all the support I needed and some. He always checked to make sure the course was moving at a pace I was comfortable with, and created an environment where I never felt embarrassed about the difficulties my anxiety caused during lessons. I felt I could tell him exactly how I was feeling at all times knowing that he would respond calmly and kindly. I could not recommend Rob more highly.
I have been learning to drive on and off for 20 years. I have experienced good and bad driving instructors. When I met Rob for the first time I knew he was different in his teaching methods and his relaxed demeanour and friendly nature. He his a brilliant instructor and I don't think I could have done this without him. Learning to drive and passing my test will open up so much for me and my young family. Thanks again Rob :) I will recommend you for years to come :) :) :)
Rob is a great driving instructor. He is really patient, knowledgeable and understanding of the different needs of each student. He teaches a syllabus which is very focused and thorough. I was a nervous student who had been learning to drive for a long time but had always given up. I genuinely felt like I was never going to drive or feel confident but Rob showed me I was a good driver and that I would pass...and I did! Thanks Rob!
Well what can I say about the Fabulous Tony. He is by far the most patient person I know and believe me I can test the patience of a saint. He is funny, intelligent and there is not a single thing about driving that man doesn't know. I would recommend Tony to everyone as he is an amazing driving instructor. I can't thank him enough from the bottom of my heart for helping me over my anxiety to drive and perseverance with me when it has been tough. Thank you millions Tony you are the best xxxxx
Tony is an excellent and highly knowledgeable driving instructor, he literally knows the Highway Code like the back of his hand. He's very flexible with lesson times and pick ups, which was especially helpful for me as I was learning to drive whilst working 3 jobs. I chose to do the drive til you pass course and passed first time with 0 faults. Tony not only gets you ready to pass your test, but to drive on your own with confidence.
Passed my test first time today with Tony, despite being a nervous wreck! Tony is honestly the best instructor you could wish to have. I had a bad experience from a previous driving school when I started out, so was worrying about finding the right person second time around, and Tony was recommended to me by another instructor. I am so glad I chose to go with AJK. He is patient, friendly and an excellent instructor, never making you feel uncomfortable and always giving advice. He is always happy to answer your questions (even sometimes daft ones in my case!) and has a great sense of humour which makes you feel at ease. I did the 'train until you pass' which I would also recommend to anyone as I was having 3 lessons a week and didn't have to worry about paying for more as all of my lessons were paid for, as were my theory and practical test. It is well worth the money as you're getting what you pay for and more! If you're not sure who to learn to drive with, pick Tony and you won't be disappointed. Thanks Tony for everything, I really appreciate it. Will miss my lessons with you (and your jokes!)
Couldn't of asked for a better introduction to driving! Tony made every lesson enjoyable, and his patience and knowledge really helped me feel confident and at ease when driving. Great advice was always given, I would recommended to anyone! Thank you Tony, for all the help and advice you have given me, I really appreciate it.
Really recommend ajk for lessons and Tony is a really good person to learn with, makes you feel comfortable when driving and always showing you the best way and makes sure you understand what’s what I’m the road would send everyone I no to him as he’s a 5
Amazing. Went above and beyond, I passed with zero faults. Friendly, great sense of humour which eased my nerves. 100% recommend Tony
Where do I begin about Nicky and NMH Driving School, well today I passed my driving test and it's all because the lovely Nicky has taught me, guided me and helped me to become a confident safe driver. Nicky doesn't take you on test routes, and she doesn't concentrate on certain towns or roads, she will take you all over the place, test you on all levels and push you towards being an all round great driver with lots of driving experiences and situations. Nicky is a friendly calm patient professional instructor and I can't thank you enough for everything you've done to get me here today.
Would highly recommend Nicky at NMH driving school, she has helped me become a real driver and be able to deal with any situation I get put in. I have loved every minute of my lessons and passed my driving test first time with only 1 driver fault thanks to Nicky!!! Nicky is so helpful and patient and has always been so kind
I cannot thank Nicky enough for giving me extra lessons to help me feel up to scratch for my test! I was a little worried about driving in front of a different instructor, but Nicky is so calm, friendly and patient that I felt at ease straight away! She explains things so clearly, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an instructor. Thank you!
I’m sat feeling ecstatic thanks to Nicky’s amazing professionalism, patience and skills and of course the help of the awesome Bob. Nicky didn’t just give me the ability to pass, she ensured I passed with the life and road skills I’ll need going forward from today. Her ability to know when to be a friend and when to be a teacher is fantastic and I’ll genuinely miss our weekly drives. I could not recommend her enough!
Nicky is an excellent driving instructor who will teach you how to drive in any situation, not just how to pass your test! She's also lovely to chat to and so kind and helpful, couldn't recommend her highly enough.
Nicky is a brilliant instructor who teaches you to drive, not just pass your test, she is patient calm and clear. She takes the time to explain things and practice untill you feel confident - I highly recommend to anyone who wants to drive. Thanks to Nicky I passed with only 2 Minors.
Ian is very easy going, honest and helpful. I quickly felt comfortable with him. His automatic car is very easy to drive. No gear change and clutch to worry about. I progressed very quickly with him and was lucky and passed on my first attempt
He’s helpful, patient and had a lot of faith in me. He’s fun to talk to, and he gives great advise!
Ian was great! Very patient and reasonable. Taught me very well.
Jen is a great instructor. I passed first time with her. She is easy to talk to and knows what you need as a pupil.
I was 5.5 months pregnant when i decided i needed to learn to drive. I decided i wanted to do an automatic only crash course as i needed to pass quickly and had heard that Elevate was the best driving school in Nottingham to do this with. I called elevate and was assigned Julian and i honestly couldnt of wished for a better instructor! I was very nervous at the beginning but each lesson i had with Julian i noticed a little bit of the nerves would dissappear. Hes so down to earth and so thorough with his teaching techniques and also very patient! He understood how important it was for me to pass quickly with me being late in pregnancy and managed to get me a test booked for Colwick on bank holiday monday in which i passed first time! All this was completed within 6 weeks and i cannot thank and recommend him and Elevate driving school enough!!!
I recently passed my test after having lessons with Jean. She explained everything in a super helpful and easy to understand manner, building my confidence each week. I would highly recommend Jean to any new learners!
I can’t thank Julian enough. He’s a great instructor, patient and a really down to earth person which makes each lesson 10 times better. I passed my driving test with only one minor first time at a different test centre to where I was learning due to me taking a cancellation and Julian was so supportive and ensured I knew everything I needed to pass. I 100% recommend to anyone to go with Elevate and learn with Julian.
Julian is hands down the best instructor, he has everything that an instructor should have: He is calm in every situation, his patience just never ending and he always straight on point. His teaching method is amazing, we didn't waste even a minute, and successfully tackled all my weaknesses with efficient lessons! I had 25-30 hours of lessons in total with him and passed the practical test with only 6 minors!! ( as he predicted!) I definitely recommend him to everybody! Thanks a lot Julian, you are the best! Best Regards Luis
Julian was brilliant passed 2nd time forst time I had no instructor and filled on serious passed today with elevate with 1 minor I'm so happy thankyou so much for having confidence in me and believing in me
I went to Julian not being able to stay in my lane and had 0 confidence in my abilities to drive. I was adamant I’d never pass… But with all the patience and proper teaching from Julian I finally passed my driving test! I would recommend him time and time again to anyone wanting to pass their driving test confidently knowing they’re a good driver.
Julian Vincent is Professional in what he does but at the same time he makes you feel relaxed and confident in yourself which I needed. He made me feel like a friend NOT TEACHER AND PUPIL .
Julian is such an amazing teacher, he was very thorough with his teaching and explanations, he was very patient and supportive! He was also very friendly, I didn't feel any sort of pressure when driving with him which made my lessons so much more enjoyable. He was always on time and there was good communication outside of lessons. Overall I had a REALLY great experience with Elevate Driving School & Julian, passing second time round, which has a lot to do with Julian's techniques & his hard work. I would most definitely recommend Elevate to anyone. ONE VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER :)
Julian at Elevate was a amazing instructor, I hadn't been in a car trying to drive for a long time, having taken a over 10 year gap in learning. Getting in a car for a two week intensive course leading to a successful pass from Julian's confidence in me and his knowledge and experience on how to get the best out of his learners. Would recommend to anyone to not look anywhere else.
No matter how much I write about Julian it just won't be enough. He's an amazing instructor - patient, perseverant, committed and friendly. He has not only been my driving instructor but my life mentor. He made me believe in myself when I gave up. Bless you Julian, can't thank you enough for making me believe in myself, for going extra miles for me and providing me with all the strength and encouragement. Remember that you are equally credited for my dream coming true- I have a driving license now!!
Julian Vincent was the best instructor my lessons with him was a process I appreciate everyday I learned a lot of good driving skills thanks I had him as my instructor I would recommend any learners
I can not put anything into words to express my gratitude to julian it just would not be enough. I will say absolute amazing bloke and will never forget him without him I would not be were I am know A DRIVER thanks Julian
Big shout out to Julian helped me pass my test first time booked 10hours intensive course and would recommend him to anyone very patient & helps you feel comfortable
🚗 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🚗 I recently passed my driving test with Elevate - Julian, I can honestly say I would definitely recommend this driving school. After failing my driving test a number of times I decided to go for automatic lessons. Every lesson that I had with Julian he made me feel comfortable and relaxed, there was times when I was thinking to give up but Julian supported to me continue which I’m extremely grateful for. What an amazing instructor with great patience and understanding that goes above and beyond for his learners. Thanks again Julian ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
julian is great, I will tell all my friends learn with him. He was patient, and helped me pass in 4 months.
I had 6 (2hour ) lessons with Julian and I've learned a lot from him, he is very professional, accurate, patient and strict with a good sense of humour 😀 also very reliable, he did put my mind at ease when I've panicked, I enjoyed every lesson and always felt that I received good value for my money. I will highly recommend Julian he's by far the best instructor I've ever had. Thanks a lot Julian 10/10⭐ I've passed with 4 minor's.
Julian is an exceptional driving instructor, he has a lot of patience for his pupils and his knowledge really does shine through, i’d recommend him to anyone who’s looking to pass their test.
Julian was amazing through out the whole lessons that I had with him. Aside been patient and observing the mistakes I make frequently and correct them straight away he always motivate me and encourage me to do better on our next lessons. Text date I was under so much pressure and Julian did very well to calm me down and for the first time on a text I pass. I recommend Julian to everyone. He is the best.
Julian should be your first choice when picking driving instructors as he not only surpasses the competition with his friendly and supportive teaching methods, but he'll guarantee you learn to drive efficiently and effectively, so you pass the exam in no time. Additionally, he's endlessly considerate and accommodating to anyone and everyone, no matter the experience. If you find yourself lucky enough to get Julian as your teacher, fret no more and say goodbye to any stress or worries you had about being on the road as those days are a thing of the past. Overall, great teacher, great banter, and all round distinguished person and driving instructor. Would most definitely recommend.
Julian Vincent was very good at his job , knew what to teach me at what time and knew how to clean up my mistakes perfectly and helped me pass first time .
Passed 1st time with Julian and couldn’t recommend him highly enough! 🎉 After struggling on and off with other driving schools I contacted Elevate to start automatic lessons and they put me in a intense driving course. Julian was great, he taught me so much and helped me to adjust my driving skills. Driving with him make me felt like I was an experienced driver and not a learner driver as I felt like I was doing a calm relaxed drive a month ago. Would highly recommend he is the best !!
Passed first time with elevate. Genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. I wasn’t the best driver beforehand but after having lessons with Julian my confidence grew and with that and the knowledge I became a good driver and passed ! Thank you !
Amazing experience learning from Julian, he knows exactly how to get the best out his students, plus he was a genuinely nice guy!!
Julian was very friendly, encouraging and very patient with me. He is a top quality instructor and would recommend him to anyone looking for excellent service.
Julian is a super good coach. I learned for 20+ hours from him. He was so patience and gave support to all new learners. Also, he had his own strategies for improving my driving weaknesses. Thank you very much!
I cannot recommend Julian at Elevate driving school enough, at the grand old age of 41 I had all but given up on passing my driving test, I have had bad experiences in the past & was extremely anxious & nervous about driving, I didn’t think it would ever all click with me & had no confidence whatsoever, Julian changed all of this, he adapted his style of teaching to make everything very easy for me to understand & I finally got it! I passed my test this week & I am still on cloud 9 - it has completely changed my life, I cannot thank Julian enough
Julian was a great instructor, his way of teaching is incredible as you are able to learn things quickly and with ease. He is very patient and friendly, I have already recommended him to a few of my friends!
Another safe driver on the road , thanks to elevate driving school. The scheduling was convenient and Julian was wonderful. I gained much confidence through out our lessons and passed my test on the first try. 💃🏽
Having been learning to drive for two years prior to calling elevate I felt like giving up and not wanting to learn how to drive as that was the impression my previous driving instructor had gave to me. But being the determined and self motivated person I am, I decided against giving up and phoned elevate driving school (They we’re highly recommend)! Having ADHD I find it hard to communicate and sometimes my brain can go into overdrive but my wonderful instructor Julian turned all my faults learned from a prior driving instructor around and ensured I was at test standard providing learning methods that suited me. I honestly cannot thank Julian and elevate driving school enough. Today has been the best day of my life and will ensure my future is bright!❤️
Would highly recommend elevate driving school I passed first time with automatic driving lessons there quality of work is amazing they should be so proud 👏 without there help I wouldn't of got to be where I am with my driving if you want the best then this is the place to go 100% nice friendly people who you can also have a laugh with which helps take of some pressure you maybe feeling If you want the best then elevate is the place to go no doubt about it 😁

I am very grateful to Julian Vincent of Elevate for his care, help, support and effort, for me to pass the practical driving test after many trials and unsuccessful attempts. This is a 5 star performance by Julian. He was very detailed in his lessons, always on time and very patient. Julian is very knowledgeable about the requirements to get a pass at first attempt. I have tried many instructors in Nottingham area, he is the best. Thank you Juilan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Julian is a fabulous instructor, with full of positive energy.He help me to pass my test within 10 classes. One thing I noticed when ever I did mistake,he always happy to see that!!!!! and corrected me. . I will recommend him to my friends. I would like to give 11/10
Julian is a great instructor, very friendly and patient. I will recommended him to anyone wishing to pass their test once.
He was fantastic! He had so much patience and such a high standard of instructing, he was friendly and helpful and the whole experience was fantastic. I passed first time with only 1 minor and that was all thanks to him.
Julian was a superb instructor. Very informative and professional. Helped me build my confidence and taught me how to drive at test standard within 4 months. Would 100% recommend to friends and family!
Julian was patient and able to simplify any complex manuvours. He made driving fun.
I Passed first time with Julian!🎉 Struggled on a few minor things before with other driving schools, but after contacting Julian all went well! My lessons were smooth and straightforward, Julian really does his best to make you feel comfortable and confident. I did intensive 10 hour sessions which allowed me to also cover a lot more test routes, which I believe contributed to my pass! I’m very pleased with the encouragement, patience and skills Julian has passed onto me. I’m a much more confident driver and I look forward to applying these skills on the road in the future👍🏾
Your are the best instructor. your advice makes me to concentrated with my daily life and it is helping me to pass my exam from first time I’m so lucky thank you so much.
The name is Julian. Just look for him if you really need to pass your driving practical test. This man has a midas touch. He will guide you in all humility. He is the magic. Trust me. You shall definitely pass if not the first time. The BEST driving instructor I have ever met. Can't say more. JUST TRY HIM!
Started with Jullian in May, he made me feel comfortable with the drive right from the start. Was really helpful and friendly too, would highly recommend having him as an instructor. Got me my pass 1st time 💯
Julian....I call him a wizard😀😀 he is good at his job, very knowledgeable of the nitty-gritty of the test standard. I cannot forget the drawings, landmarks and reference points in a hurry😀😀. He is so patient, always supportive, professional and ensures you get it right even if it means going over it again. If there was a 10star rating, I will give it to Julian for a job well done. Thank you
Through friend’s recommendation
Best driving instructor ever. Made me feel so relaxed and at ease from the moment I first got into his car. I wouldn’t have passed my test as quick as I did without juilan.
Been around mr Julian Vincent is awesome n 2nd to none,i love his professionalism,seriousness n he will stretch u to ur limit just for anyone to pass his or her test,he is jovial n doesn't play with his job,i also love his integrity,sincerity n he is time conscious 😉 ❤, infact words can't describe his personality...all i can say again is his is 2nd to none...love u mr Julian Vincent you wipe away my tears n gave me a platform to soar to my next level in life.... love u n wish you all the best.
Julian was the best instructor ever! He made me a good driver from the very beginner entry level and I owe so much to him, I strongly recommend him to everyone that wants to learn how to drive!
I would highly recommend Elevate Driving School. I was taught by Julian who made me feel really comfortable and always pushed me to do the best of my abilities. He always brightened up a rainy day and never failed to make me smile! Thank you Julian for being you!! I wouldn’t of been able to do it without you
Elevate driving school and especially Julian my driving instructor have been amazing! Supportive and overall one of the best experiences of my life! I really didn't think driving was for me but Julian gave me the confidence to carry on and his teachings are exceptional 1st class! I really can't express how grateful I am to him as I'm a very closed book with lots of insecuritys, but he has a great way of finding away in and teaching to not only your needs but too a high standed! His everlasting jokes quick wit and great sense of humour are only a fraction of how much I can thank him. And the commitment he puts in to his pupils is outstanding. In a nutshell he's a fantastic driving instructor and I will recommend him to everyone who's thinking of driving 🚗! Thanks Julian my life begins at 43 PASS!!!!!!!!! 🚦
Cannot thank Julian at Elevate Driving school enough. From being a nervous driver to a confident one in the space of a few months. His patience and calm manner made me feel very comfortable in the car, learning the safety of the road whilst having a laugh. 100% recommend.
For so long I believed that having a driving license was an impossible dream for me. This feeling was only increased what I had a truly awful experience with a previous driving instructor. Needless to say I parted ways with that instructor. I had heard nothing but positive things in regards to Elevate and from the very first communication with them I was put at ease and felt listened to. I was given Julian as my instructor and from our very first lesson I knew this was the perfect fit for me. Due to my previous experience I was extremely nervous. As our lessons progressed my confidence and skills grew and it became more and more apparent to me how low my level of driving was from my previous instructor who had told me repeatedly I was test ready and didn’t need more knowledge just more confidence! At each and every stage of my learning journey Julian adapted and tailored his teaching methods to suit my learning style. After a few short months of training I had my first driving test since my time joining Elevate. Unfortunately, on test day the pressure was too much and I didn’t get through successfully. Julian remained as supportive as ever and went above and beyond and by the powers that be managed to get me another test on the tenth following day. Within those ten days Julian continued to adapt his learning methods to suit me and again went above and beyond by offering me the opportunity to sit in the back of the car on another pupils lesson in order to see the pressure from another angle. Today I have just touched down in Jamaica being able to celebrate the fact that yesterday I achieved what for so long felt like a dream to me and passed my driving test. Not only did I pass I almost had a perfect drive with only one minor on route back to the rest centre. I really believe that without Julian going above and beyond each and every step of the way, believing in me and empowering me to believe in myself that I wouldn’t have achieved passing my driving test so skilled and confidently. I truly would ONLY recommend Julian and his team at Elevate to anyone for driving lessons. Simply put Julian is the G.O.A.T in the driving world and I will always be grateful for my learning experience with him.
Julian is such a great driving instructor Not only was he a good instructor to teach me to drive, he created an atmosphere of what life would be like driving once passed. I passed 1st time, this speaks for itself.
My experience of the Elevate Driving School has been exceptional! I couldn’t have wished for a better instructor than Julian who, through his years of experience and great teaching techniques, made me feel very confident on the day of my test where I passed first time. He went above and beyond to make sure I was progressing my driving well, whilst also being incredibly kind and charismatic - which made my lessons very enjoyable. Having compared to other instructors, I can truly say that he has an incredible teaching style and is an outstanding instructor - which is not a given. I completely recommend and vouch for Elevate Driving School and their 10/10 service!
Julian Vincent's driver learning experience was a game changer for me. He took the time out to find out and listen to my previous experiences and make a conscious effort to make sure that it was different with him. He took his time to make sure that I understood everything I was doing and the importance of it. He made sure that I aimed for perfection and didn't settle for anything less. I could see he had a genuine passion to ensure I became a safe and responsible driver. Julian has a great aura which also was something I bounced off, he always was in good spirits which just made the crash course a great experience for me. For me the crash course is worth the value, I will be recommending to anyone!
Julian is a great instructor who is determined to help his pupils pass. He is very patient. I give him 10/10 minus 0. I will definitely recommend him.
I began my automatic intensive crash course with Julian in February. It is now May, and I have passed not only my theory test but my practical test too! I passed first time and I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to start driving, especially if you aim to be on the roads ASAP! I never thought I’d be on the road this early, but thanks to Julian and everyone at Elevate they have made this possible for me with their amazing instructors and service.
Passed an automatic crash course with Julian at elevate and I Couldn’t thank him enough. Passed first time with only 1 minor at chilwell :D would highly recommend Julian (and elevate) he always makes you feel comfortable and safe and it’s never boring also and always a laugh while being taught so it never makes you feel uncomfortable. I have a young daughter and one on the way and Julian always made time to fit me in with my “mummy” schedule and to what suited me best. Really appreciated fitting me in when I could only do certain days and times, I couldn’t thank you enough for learning me how to drive, with two young kids it’s just what I needed! So Thank you very much! Rebecca
Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Not once did I feel anxious about anything, was always having a laugh. I would recommend him to anyone who was looking to pass fast and first time. Thank you to julian for helping me pass first time with no minors!
Julian took me on with recently failing a test and low on confidence. Weeks later I know have passed my test and feel 100x confident. Makes the lessons fun and relaxing and helped be a safe and confident driver. He’s the 🐐.
Julian is a great instructor, who uses in my opinion the best methods to making someone who has never driven before into a great and very safe driver. Thank you again for helping pass my test👊🏼
Julian is very nice instructor I pass my test in 1st time crash course thank you Julian 🙏
Out of the 3 instructors I had Julian was by far the best. He understood how I processed information adapted to my learning style. I’m glad to have found him, it would have take way longer without him.
I have had an excellent experience with an exceptional highly skilled and experienced driving instructor ( Julian). My lessons has been full of Respect, Fun and Holistic. I just passed my practical driving test this morning! I will recommend Elevate Driving school to my friends, family and colleagues.
Julian really helped ease my nerves and made my driving lessons chilled and enjoyable I honestly cant recommend him enough !!! So if your looking for a instructor get on the phone to elevate driving school and ask for Julian he might even teach you some of his amazing karaoke skills and throw in some of his amazing jokes aswell
I simply don’t have words that can describe and pay gratitude to my amazing instructor Julian enough. He is so professional, patient, polite and ensures to fine tune your areas of weaknesses. I have been lucky to have him as my instructor and thankful to him for transforming me into a confident, relaible and intelligent driver on the road. I have passed my exam today and truly enjoyed entire experience of learning with Julian. Thanks for giving me life lessons. Respect to you for making this dream possible into reality. My prayer points have now become my testimonies. Julian is so easy to get on with, really friendly and a great instructor. He makes you feel very calm and allows you goes at your own pace. I will recommend Julian any day anytime to all my friends and family when they are looking for an excellent instructor. Thanks for everything you’ve done especially with the manoeuvre, parallel parking, traffic lights, road signs and speed limits. Julian a very calm and kind instructor. He makes lessons so fun, I 100% guarantee that if you have him as your driving instructor you will be on the right path to learning how to drive very well an become confident on the road. Think driving success! Think Elevate. Elevate still the best. Tested and trusted.
Absolutely amazing instructor, he made me feel so comfortable straight away after having a bad experience with a previous instructor! He is very professional and an absolute pleasure to be around, he made driving feel normal and not being made to feel under pressure 😁 would definitely recommend Julian and Elevate Driving School.
He’s great, so nice such a good laugh and helped me passed 1st time in 5 months
I initially took driving lessons when I was nineteen and felt prepared for the next step towards independence. I went through a series of driving instructors from various driving schools in Nottingham who I felt had little empathy or awareness when it came to my dyscalculia. This initially made driving stressful for me as I process information differently. My willingness to then drive had taken a nose dive until I started lessons with Elevate. Julian my instructor caught on quickly to how I process information and he tailored lessons in order suit how I learn. It became clear to see that Julian is a very experienced and inspirational driving instructor who made each and every lesson engaging and fun. He has extensive knowledge of best driving practice and he built up my confidence tremendously with each lesson. I passed my practical driving test on the second attempt today with only one minor, this is something I never thought would be a possibility for me. I am forever grateful to Julian at Elevate.
I'm delighted to share my positive experience with my driving instructor Julian, He played a crucial role in boosting my confidence and skills, especially when I was feeling discouraged. Thanks to his patient guidance and effective teaching methods, I successfully passed my driving test within just Few months. I highly recommend Elevate driving school to anyone in need of expert and supportive driving lessons.
I would highly recommend Julian as your driving instructor. I'm quite an anxious person at times and failed my test in a manual car 20 years ago. At 56 years young I thought I would give myself one last chance at learning to drive in an automatic car. Julian put me totally at ease, gave the confidence and driving skills I needed to pass my test 1st time. Driving lessons with Julian were enjoyable which helped me to learn to drive. He is a positive, professional and down to earth driving instructor. Thanks Julian
It is reassuring when you desired something and you received it. Undoubtedly, in Julian, I found all I desired to make my driving an excellent experience. Julian is not just a driving instructor, he is a driving teacher. Permit me to ascribe the portfolio of a Professor of Driving to Julian. Julian is humble, tolerant and accommodating. Julian goes the extra mile to inculcate the best driving skills to you. He is very professional, meticulous and highly skilled in the art of driving. As a product of his instruction, I make bold to say that Julian has by his consistent excellent instruction made Elevate Driving School a place of choice for all intending learners. Ofcourse, you can't give what you don't have. Julian gave me what he has and what he has was all I needed. I will conclude by saying that I was not recommended by anyone to Elevate Driving School. I only got their details online and read many reviews about them. I also listened to their Radio Advert at KEMET FM Nottingham. Indeed, what the reviews said, in addition to the advertisement on Radio are the true position of this brand, known as Elevate. Conclusively, I wouldn't have had a better driving experience than what I have got from Elevate Driving School, particularly through the instruction of JULIAN. I recommend ELEVATE DRIVING SCHOOL WHOLEHEARTEDLY, without any reservations.
I passed first time with Julian, he is a great driving instructor, after having 2 bad driving instructors in the past, I was so happy to find one that could teach me how to drive to a good standard.
Iv just passed my crash course with Julian in automatic , Julian was polite friend reliable with no pressure Julian reassured me that I was fine and to enjoy the experience with no pressure as I suffer with anxiety it helped a lot great experience and great outcome over all highly recommend.
Best driving school in Nottingham by far…. I had tried a couple of other driving schools before I started with Elevate and both my previous driving instructors couldn’t support me nor did they have the patience or expertise I was looking for… I rang Elevate in February and they put me onto an Intensive Driving Course with an instructor called Julian and we clicked immediately, he was hands down way better than my previous 2 driving instructors… He worked out how to get the best out of me and adapted his teaching techniques so it suited me… Absolutely amazing instructor and I passed my driving test 5 weeks later in a different town… I honestly felt like I could drive anywhere .. Don’t waste your money going anywhere else for an Intensive Driving Course, IMO this driving school could be the best in the Country …
Huge thanks to Julian. A kind and patient instructor for the great support provided all through my learning with elevate driving school. Not only is he a great instructor who makes it easy, comfortable and enjoyable to learn, he won't get mad or annoyed if you mess up in anyway, very helpful and friendly throughout the whole process, he gave me wonderful tips and tricks to help me remembering the more difficult parts of driving and I had an amazing experience with him. Julian is an excellent communicator with many years of professional driving experience!. I would recommend Julian from elevate driving school to anyone who is trying to learn how to drive and pass easily. Thank you Julian for everything! Ay
Julian Vincent was great! I would tell my friends to learn with him. He was very patient, and help led to me pass in 4 months. He often draws pictures to help me understand traffic rules and repeats English for me and made videos for me also. I can remember my kind Coach always!
Julian Vincent is a very good instructor and also a great person, he was very helpful and patient with me although I have no previous experience with cars or driving a car but he was very nice and polite and I passed first time. I will definitely recommend Elevate Driving School to anyone who wants a great instructor.
Julian vincent was great! I've already told my friends and family to learn with him. He helped me to pass 1st TIME in four months.
Julian is the man to take your lessons with don’t waste your money going anywhere else I passed 1st time with Julian he made me feel so comfortable with each lesson listening to music is the one when on the lesson had a good laugh with him
I’ve had rubbish instructors in the past but Julian gave me hope again. Thank you for your patience and for being so accommodating to my working hours. Being a natural comedian is an added bonus haha. Thank you!!
Best experience I could ever of asked for. From the moment I met Julian he put me at ease and help me to learn to reduce and manage what he calls driving anexity. Julian helped to focus in on what me bigger fears in my case were roundabouts and we worked on perfecting my understanding on how to approach them and understanding on how to read them. I passed first time and will be forever greatful for Julian's support. Would highly recommend!!!! Thank You!!!!!
I can’t thank Julian enough, he took me on when my previous instructor let me down very badly, from my first lesson with Julian I felt so relaxed, his training methods are second to none, the man is an exceptional human being I honestly can’t thank him enough, I would recommend him to anyone, thank you so much mate, friends for life 🙏
Julian was fantastic for me after I was let down badly by a previous instructor, he mad me feel very comfortable from my first lesson, his training methods are second to none
Julian was so good we with as I was so nervous about driving he was patient with me the best driving lessons iv ever had
Julian was great instructor , very happy which made the lessons fun and found learning with Julian really easily. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor.
I passed my driving test!! Thank you to Julian the best driving instructor. He was so patient with me and believed in me the whole time. Can’t thank him enough. 100% recommend.
Julian is an absolutely amazing instructor who makes you feel so relaxed, and goes above and beyond to help you pass I would definitely recommend him.
I started lessons with Julian 5 weeks ago with a fear of driving, after lessons with Julian and his support I was able to pass my test first time with ease. I tried multiple other instructors in Nottingham and never made any progress, I was close to giving up due to the anxiety , I would have never passed or been as confident without Julian’s help!!!
Julian my instructor is the best. He easily identifies your driving needs and he trains on it . I passed my test on my 1st attempt with 22hrs lessons with him. He is reliable ,good time management, good human relation,polite ,pleasant , experienced ,professional and a PRO at his job Thank you Julian Call Elevate and speak to Julian if you reside in and around NOTT and wants to pass your test .
Julian was amazing! He was extremely patient, encouraging and supportive during my time on the intensive course. He made me believe I could do it and I did! I would not hesitate to recommend Julian to anybody!
Big thank you to Julian, everything that you taught it was really useful in the real test and also made the different on how I drive as well.
Julian was absolutely amazing. I struggle with anxiety and panic disorder and find it hard in certain situations however Julian was patient and understanding and was very patient with me. I did the intensive automatic course and started in early September and passed in October 100% recommend
I would highly recommend jullian from Elevate driving school, he recommended an additional 15hrs and I passed in under 10. One happy customer :)
Absolutely fantastic instructor would highly recommend to everyone. His knowledge is amazing and will know exactly how long you need and what to work on. I passed first time because he made sure I was test ready.
My instructor Julian was amazing! He helped and guided me to pass first try in only 4 weeks. I had never driven before and could not of had a better experience. I couldn’t recommend Julian and Elevate enough thankyou for everything!
Joslyn was fun and encouraging throughout the whole experience. He made sure we completed all the manoeuvres and required skills to learn to drive in the time i had aimed for. I passed first time with him in manual. Thankyou Josyln
Paul's been the best since I started learning with him. Never been let down by the man, easy to get on with, and has a vast knowledge! I'd like to give more than 5*, but it won't let me!
If you're looking for a fantastic instructor, Paul’s the man. If you're a nervous learner, Paul is an exceptional, very patient and calming influence. I really can’t recommend him highly enough. I passed with Paul today.
If you want the best instructor in Nottingham then Paul’s the man! He’s patient; thorough and dedicated! With all the one liners to help you remember everything from ‘the plonker mirror’ to ‘is the car talking to you’ I would have never passed without the support of Paul! Thank you!!!
Paul is a fantastic driving instructor. He has a really positive and patient approach to lessons. As a nervous (and slightly older) learner he totally put me at ease. He also went above and beyond to research the routes and test centre, and to make sure I was fully prepared for my test.
Had a booster lesson with Paul to get me more confident with my manoeuvres for my test next week and he's great! I felt confident with him, he's a nice guy and friendly... and he likes cats! Highly recommend him for your driving lessons! Thanks 🙂
Paul is an amazing driving instructor, he's a really friendly person and he's so easy to get along with. Paul is always on time, and the lessons are really enjoyable. Whenever I have a lesson with Paul I always feel relaxed in the car, there's always a great atmosphere and there's never a dull moment, it's always fun. So if you're looking for a driving instructor I couldn't recommend Paul enough - he is just brilliant !!!
If you're reading this and unsure which instructor to choose, Paul is the man! Been with Paul since my first lesson to the day I passed, and he's been fantastic. Felt relaxed from start to finish and I felt my confidence and ability grow with him. Top instructor and cannot recommend enough.
Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Paul is an amazing driving instructor. I've learned so much since I started my course with him and will continue to recommend him to everyone I know. Massive thanks and look forward to continuing my journey with you.
Joey is one of the most comforting driving instructors ever! She always helped me out straight away if i had and issues or needs. She is a 10/10 driving instructor and I would highly recommend.
It was such a pleasure having joey as a driving instructor, she is so patient, kind and caring yet will make you laugh so hard. She pushes you in the best way because she wants all her students to succeed. She really is amazing and I highly recommend her.
Joey was amazing she was so patient and very accommodating around my 6th form timetable. I passed first time with no minors - thanks Joey
Thanks to Barry for the time he spent helping me to pass my driving test. Very patient and always helpful with fitting in the times of my driving lessons and test. Barry made the change from driving a automatic to manual car easy. I now see why my husband had his motorbike lesson with Barry and I would recommend his driving school to anyone wanting driving lessons in a relaxed atmosphere.
Excellent service by a competent instructor.
First lesson he see what you are capable of and take it from there. He was never late or cancelled a lesson. Doesn't let his life interfere with a lesson, you will have his full attention.
Thank you very much Drive with George Driving School for all your hard work, you are a quality instructor, and I felt really easy and comfortable working with you, I would definitely recommend to anyone who are looking for a good instructor .
Great driver instructor and most importantly very patient. He helped me out even through hard times!
excellent driving instructor I've had lessons with another firm before and really struggled with them went with George and he made things so much easier for me I would recommend him to anyone thanks for everything George respect and god bless
Teaching driving is an art and George is a great artist at it, he strikes a rare balance between explaining and letting you learn by practice, he doesn't waste your time and focuses on the salient and relevant points. I passed on the first attempt in a short period and to be honest I'll miss our lessons, it never felt heavy. Highly recommend it to my friends and everyone.
He is the one you should contact! He took the time to explain each sessions and the ones to come, before and after the lesson. He is experienced and organised. Very friendly, patient. He believed in me even when I didn’t.
George was fantastic and understanding with the questions, he is very patient he that made me pass first time :)
George is an excellent driving instructor who is clearly very experienced. He is very professional, a great teacher, very patient and very skilled at identifying areas that need to be worked on. He is very flexible and really tailored the lessons to my hectic work schedule which was the main problem I was having with all other instructors. I had started and stopped lessons many times before due to my hectic schedule and lack of flexibility. He really went above and beyond to ensure that I have the best chance to succeed. I will definitely recommend him to everyone. Thank you George for all your help.
Excellent driving school my daughter, son in law and nephew passed there’s with Darren, myself and niece passed with Chris would highly recommend.
Best driving instructor round nottingham hands down
brilliant teacher
Great!
Great instructor. 5/5. Recommend!!
Cannot recommend this driving school enough! Tried with 3 other driving schools previously and was never comfortable enough to carry on with lessons. Soon as I met Zakia she made me feel so comfortable and at ease and was so reassuring! She was very patient with me and I never thought I would pass my driving test but here I am! Thank you Zakia I owe you so much! Let’s start with a Nando’s lol! ❤️❤️
You’ve been the most encouraging part of this success. Even when I failed, you never lost any hope in me. Thanks again Zakia again❤️❤️🙌
You are a great teacher, wish I had met you earlier!!
Fantastic instructor, very patient and empathetic towards the learner. I was very nervous and anxious to learn to drive but zakia put me and ease and gave me the confidence to achieve my dreams of driving. Thanks zakia
Best driving instructor I’ve ever had . She’s very patient and really good at what she does and helped me pass in 11 days .
What a wonderful instructor, very lovely and patient, not after helping you just pass but also making you a safe driver. I’ve enjoyed my lessons with Zakia and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to be a safer driver!
Thank you, amazing instructor felt relaxed the whole time xx
Zakia was amazing. I was a refresher learner and she helped me not only to improve my driving skills but also to build confidence on myself, what allowed me to start enjoying driving. I would 100% recommend Zakia to anyone who is looking for a driving instructor.
Please working with you, thanks for keeping me calm and pushing me to get things right!
Zakia is a great driving instructor. I always felt safe with her and she helped to get my confidence on the road. I was given a brilliant encouragement whilst learning and in every lesson I would learn something new. Would recommend!
After passing my test years ago, but loosing confidence and not driving for many years, I booked a few lessons with Zakia, expecting that it would take me a long time to build my confidence back up. Zakia was so kind and put me at ease straight away, so that I was driving on my own again after the first lesson! She didn’t make light of anything that I was anxious about, she was very patient and none of my questions were too silly for her. The lessons always passed so quickly because we spent the whole time chatting, but she was always on the ball and giving helpful feedback where necessary. After just a few lessons I am now more confident than I have ever been and actually starting to feel relaxed when driving. If anyone is struggling with anxiety over driving, I would definitely recommend Zakia.
Thank you so much for the lessons and patience Zakia! I’m so glad to have finally achieved the pass. I needed a teacher who would stick by my side through the process. Sometimes the confidence takes more time then the practical skill :)
I'm so grateful to Zakia for her patience, kindness and encouragement. I was so anxious about driving, and she helped me identify why that was happening and what to do to overcome it. I would recommend to anyone, but particularly those that lack confidence initially.
Zakia was great! She was calm and patient, and helped me pass quickly. Thanks a lot!
Couldn’t recommend Zakia more highly, especially if you are anxious about driving! I put driving off for three years because I was so nervous but she helped me build my confidence up and push past my nerves. So friendly and chatty. I couldn’t do it with any other instructor, thank you!
Zakia was a really great instructor. She was very patient with me and knew how to deal with me being a more nervous driver. I have now passed my test and would definitely recommend learning with her.
Ian was great! He was really friendly I would recommend to all of my friends and famliy.
Learning with Ian was excellent: he is a very patient and understanding teacher. He also has semi - decent banter
I have reccomended Ian to a number of my friends. He has been kind, patient and understanding and could not fault my experience.
Ian was a great instructor he encouged me to believe in myself even when i had no faith. He was honest and always corrected me which i believe is the reason why i had passed and altogether i loved my lessons and im lucky to say that i had the chance to have hin as ny instructor.
Ian Robert a profesional with the ability to teach you straight to the point and about the stuff you need to pass.
Ian was fab! Id happily recomend him to any of my friend,great instructor and very easy to talk to!
Enjoyed it very much. The maneuvers i was taught was very easy to understand, and my understanding of how to drive safely was greatly improved as a learner under Ian.
Ian is a great driving instructor, Very nice and patient but also offers constructive criticism to ensure that you are driving safely on roads.
Learning to drive with Ian was amazing, especially giving me the confidence to get behind a wheel again after an incident 20 years ago that put me off learning to drive. Yes we had frustrating times, when I stalled for the 4th time in a lesson, but his way of getting you back up on the horse and to keep going really motivated me to succeed. The lessons were always relaxed and Ian was flexible when it came to the lessons. If something wasn't going right the lesson plan would change mid lesson to focus on something different so we would end the lesson on a positive and when I was having a bad day at work and didn't feel up to tackling any stressful routes or manoeuvres, we just got out of the city and drove. Learning to drive is definitely a team effort and having Ian on your side you're always going to win!
I recently passed my practical driving test with Javid as my instructor. He was super helpful and encouraging from the start, and he explained everything to me in such a calm and easy way. He was always very patient, and really friendly too. This made the test far less stressful! I would highly recommend to anyone looking to learn how to drive! 10/10. Always thoroughly enjoyed my lessons and will definitely be recommending to friends.
I passed on Wednesday with Jav, he’s a fantastic instructor, super friendly and super patient. He explains things in a way that is easy to understand and has a real investment in his learners! Absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to get passed safely and quickly!
Great driving instructor, very friendly and easy going which made learning to drive stress free. I was able to pass comfortably because of this. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn how to drive.
Javid is an excellent instructor and has a great attitude towards his learners. His encouraging and kind manner allowed me to feel comfortable behind the wheel. This let me progress easily which led me to pass. I highly recommend this driving school!
Jav is an absolutely fantastic instructor. He's friendly, patient, and made every lesson comfortable and enjoyable. He knows exactly what makes a good driver, and was excellent at identifying my weakest points and making sure I was always being challenged and was always progressing. I just passed on my first attempt and I owe it to Jav, I highly recommend him to anyone.
Have passed my test today! Adrian has been very patient with me after some anxieties around driving from the past. Fantastic tuition and a great end result. Thank you!
Amazing professional instructor, would highly recommend over anyone else.
Top instructor and a good guy would recommend to anyone.
So happy to have passed my driving test first time yesterday with Adrian’s help! :) He was always patient but knew just how to encourage and push me further. I could not have done this without him! I thoroughly recommend Adrian to anyone as he really adapts his teaching style to your meet your needs! THANKS ADRIAN!
Big thank you to Adrian! Friendly and professional instructor. I passed my test 1st time, definitely recommend to anyone who’s looking for a Driving School!
Adrian is an extremely professional and caring tutor who really does care about his students. He adapts to whatever learning style the student requires and is very easy to learn from. Can not recommend him enough!
Best Instructor in Nottingham! Always had patience and went through everything over and over again to make sure I felt comfortable and knew what I was doing. He is incredibly professional such as by taking notes of every session, plans ahead of every lesson etc. Can’t thank him enough of all his help and support, and highly recommend Adrian to everyone from beginner to experienced...
I would highly recommend this school, Adrian's knowledge is fantastic and his ability to adapt his teaching style to fit any student such as myself has been wonderful, i can't express enough how much i would recommend Adrian. if you want a professional instructor, who cares about his students, he is definitely your guy.
Adrian is an amazing instructor. He really takes the time to understand how you learn, put you at ease and ask helpful questions to widen your understanding of driving. Would highly recommend!
Aroon was an excellent instructor. I feel like a confident driver and he prepared me very well for the driving test. Highly recommend!
Amazing patient instructor super helpful and understanding. Highly recommend - will get you to pass.
Very approachable and nice instructor. My husband says I am an excellent, vigilant driver thanks to Aroon. Passed my test today at Watnall and the lessons I had in the area were perfectly tailored for my test! Thank you for your instruction!
Best driver instructor. Nice guy.. Good teacher. Passed from 1st attempt at Colwick.
Thank you so much to Aroon for helping me pass my driving. Best of the few instructors I had. Taught me quickly and professionally. Would recommend him to anyone looking to learn how to drive.
Thanks to Aroon who helped me pass my driving test 1st time. Easy to get along with, always calm and gets the job done! Thanks once again for the help you have provided. Would definitely recommend!
Aroon is a great instructor - passed first time thanks to him teaching me from scratch. He is thorough, doesn't miss anything and helped me massively with anything i struggled with, and he's a sound guy all round. Would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn to drive.
Aroon - a friendly, talented and thorough instructor who makes you feel very comfortable and knows what he’s talking about - couldn’t have passed without his patience and guidance. I have now passed a confident driver and will highly recommend. Thanks Aroon!!!!
Got recommended from a friend about CJ’s to do my Towing licence, Caine made it fun, easy and a real down to earth guy felt like I had been towing for years and passed first time with not a single worry massive thank you CJ’s
Great driving instructor. Easy to get on with, fun and gave me lots of confidence. 🙂

Started my lessons around the beginning of Dec 18 with Jay, I had put it off for years as was terrified of driving but he made me feel comfortable behind the wheel in no time at all. I had to fit my lessons around work and also in a deadline due to me moving away and he always made time for my lessons. He is a really good teacher and I would like to say a friend now who helped me pass first time! So thank you :)

Jay is an awesome instructor. I had the most relaxed experience and Jay was always willing to give advice about anything I was unsure about. It has been a while I have passed now but I have returned because I know I can trust the fact that he will provide the best and most up to date driving techniques, knowledge and information for my Daughter. Thank you Jay.
Jay I want to contact you and book for my Leassons when u available?
Learning driving with Mani is a great experience so far. He is an amazing teacher with loads of experience. He is calm, funny, friendly and always on time. Because of him, I built up my driving confidence by the time. I relocate in Lincoln, so I took some lessons with a new instructor, and the new one cannot be compared to Mani. I am glad I took lessons from "Secure A Pass" and would like to recommend to anybody.
Mani is a top driving instructor. He's brilliant at making you feel confident on the road and pushes for you to pass. Can't recommend him more!! Always on time and not one of those driving instructors only bothered about rushing you back to finish if the lesson is running over. Thanks Mani!
Knowledgeable, reliable, top class! Would highly recommend to anyone! Passed first time with Mani who has so much patience and puts time and effort into everything to make sure you’re comfortable and confident. Also had a couple of lessons from Jav who is equally as good! Thank you:)
I recently passed my driving test first time with 0 driver faults with 'Secure a Pass'. Having Mani as my teacher made my experience a very enjoyable one. Mani is a natural teacher; he gave me a lot of confidence and always allowed me to take as many attempts as possible with manoeuvres until I felt happy with them. Mani's patience, friendliness and great attitude enabled me to learn and excel to the best I could. I couldn't recommend him enough! Thanks again Mani.
Mani is an amazing instructor! Very nice and relax to drive with him. Even when I make silly mistakes again and again, he will just teach me again and again in a very gently way! I can see he got the passion to teach but not just for earning money. He always over run the lesson if needed, sometime even more than 20 minutes!!!! And he never wastes any second in the lesson, always brings me to practise, which is the best and quickest way to learn. He make fast progress, he helps me pass in a very short time and I am able to pass at 1st time! I am much more than happy!!!! Thanks a lot Mani~~^o^ And I would highly recommend everyone who wanna learn drive to Mani!!!
Mani is a great instructor. Very patient and makes you feel at ease straight away. He is very knowledgeable and was a pleasure to learn with. I looked forward to my lessons each week and I passed first time. I would highly recommend him.
Knowledgeable driving instructor who makes driving easy Very professional and friendly driving instructor, highly recommended for driving lessons
Great driving instructor cheap driving lessons in nottingham (Website Removed by GoRoadie) driving lessons Nottingham go nowhere else
Chose the best driving instructor out there and passed first time with just 1 driver fault. If your serious about lessons and want to pass fast choose Jav highly recommend
A very easy going person to learn to drive with. I found my lessons very much enjoyable and something I looked forward to every week . Now that I've passed my practical driving test 1st time I will really miss my driving lessons with my instructor Jav highly recommended specially if your nervous about learning to drive like I was
AMAZING...never gave up on me and encouraged me all the way, thank you so much highly recommended xxxx
Had my first lesson, really enjoyed it thank you.
I took a number of lessons with my previous instructor and made no progress. I am extremely happy to have found Mike who is an amazing instructor. Mike is very patient and has great teaching skills. I would highly recommend Mike to all! Thank you Mike!
If there is a word better than awesome I would be appropriate to describe the effort , tips and instructions Mike give to the candidate. I have passed from the first go with him, he has loads of experience that grantees you a pass as easy as was mine. If you want unforgettable experience and an excellent guide to get your driving license made easy he is the one for sure Mona
After many years dealing with chronic anxiety due to driving and trying to pass with many different instructors I finally found someone who understood my issues. In a short amount of time Mike gave me the coinfidence to pass first time. I couldn't recommend Mike enough. Thanks for all you have done.
I had 4 instructors and hated driving. I wasn’t confident and really really nervous. I put my test off 6 times. Then I met Mike. My whole driving changed. Nerves became excitement and my confidence went from 0-100 after a few lessons. I passed first time. 2 driving faults. Hes calm, hes very very good at what he does and i’m just glad I found him. I don’t know how he does it but hes dam good instructor. Thank you for getting me where I am and changing my life.
Mike is super professional and effective trainer. Thanks for your patience!
Mike is an absolute fantastic driving instructor very patient brilliant to work with if you are a nervous driver made me feel comfortable pass with mike first time thanks a lot for that I’m buzzing
I found Mike after bad experience with a previous instructor. When I first started, I was not at all a confident driver and was unable to perform even some basic manoeuvres but within a few months, Mike was able to completely turn things around. He was very patient, calm and understanding throughout the process and provided expert Knowledge on driving, which helped me gain confidence and I passed my practical driving test on first attempt. I would highly recommend him to anyone and would give him 10 stars if it’s possible. Thanks so much Mike!
Great instructor! Passed first time with Mike. Easy to get on with and a great teacher!
If you’re looking for a highly experienced automatic driving instructor then look no further. Mike is brilliant. He is my 3rd (and final) instructor and is the best out of the lot by far! I had never enjoyed lessons before Mike. I consistently felt anxious and dreaded driving every week. However, Mike was able to completely alter my learning experience. Despite having over 40 lessons with other instructors, Mike was able to make me feel safe, comfortable and confident behind the wheel for the first time EVER! As a trainee teacher myself, I can confidently say that Mike is an amazing teacher who is committed to his students and after only 12 hours with Mike, I was test ready and passed with only 4 minors. At first, I was sceptical about switching from manual to automatic but once I had done it I realised it was most definitely the best decision I had ever made. The only regret I have is not finding Mike 3 years ago when I first began lessons and passing a lot sooner!
Outstanding service from start to finish, got me test ready much faster and comfortably than I expected, especially given how much I had hated manual lessons I had tried last year. Thanks Mike!!!
Learning to drive with Mike has been brilliant! After having a few instructors before, I felt comfortable with Mike and passed first time doing the 5 day intensive course! He is patient and takes the time to help you really learn! Thank you Mike!
LOOK NO FURTHER If you are looking on here trying to decide which driving school to go with, then I recommend for you to look no further, as you have found the best instructor in Mike Jobling. Mike will develop you into an all round driver, whether you are complete novice starting out as I was, or someone who is going nowhere fast under their current instructor and need to change. I can't recommend Mike highly enough, his attention to detail on every lesson shows how much he is focused on you as his student. Thanks Mike for taking me on with absolutely no experience behind the wheel, and getting me my license.
BEST DRIVING SCHOOL AROUND! These guys are absolutely spot on. Got me through my test In no time at all, they don't teach you to pass your test, they teach you to drive!
EXCELLENT DRIVING INSTRUCTOR Mike is brilliant.I was low in confidence at 49yros having not driven & after some sessions with Mike, I am now driving.I can't rate him highly enough, he is a great teacher, very personable& reassuring.I highly recommend Mike
SIMPLY THE BEST! Simply the best driving school in Nottingham.. I first started with Mike whos teaching technique is very clear, concise, and easy to understand. He is very easy going and makes you feel relaxed and confident but also makes you stick to the task. I then had the pleasure of driving with Michael, who has a vast welath of knowledge when it comes to "real world driving" and like Mike his teaching is impeccable.. between the 2 of them I managed to pass 1st time. I would highly recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thanks Mike and Michael
FIRST TIME PASS For an extremely nervous beginner learner, Mike helped me pass 1st time. The teaching style is brilliant as well as tailored at developing you into an advanced and confident driver. Not onlyfor test standards but complex real life situation. If you’re looking for an automatic instructor in Nottingham then Mike@LessGears is top notch. I must say I have had a wonderful experience. Thank you so much Mike@LessGears!!
1ST CLASS INSTRUCTORS. GREAT GUYS. Went with LessGears because I wanted to pass 1st time. Got everything I could have asked for and some! Both Mikes are fantastic instructors, and great people. If you want to be fullyready and prepared to pass your test, choose LessGears!
Ellie is a fantastic driving instructor! I wasn't very confident in the driving seat. I had been taught by a few driving instructors before and they pulled me down if I made any mistakes. So when I started with Ellie I was super happy! She made me feel comfortable and praised me when I needed it. I passed first time!
Great instructor, easy to get along with and would recommend to anyone.
Before I started taking my driving lessons I was so nervous and didn't have any confidence and thought I would never be able to drive. The first time I met my driving instructor, Ellie Moseley, I felt comfortable straight away, she is such a lovely person and would always have time to answer your calls if you had any questions or doubts about anything. In the end I passed, which for me was the best feeling ever thanks to Ellie Moseley who now I consider a friend and would recommend to anyone. She's great!
Ellie was an amazing instructor, after having a not so good experience with another driving instructor Ellie started fresh with me and was very patient but also got me through my test quickly and wasn't wasting time like other instructors I'd had before. I don't think I would of actually ever passed if I hadn't learnt with Ellie because she understood exactly what my strengths and weaknesses were! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Ellie is a great instructor, easy to get along with and her nerve settling conversations which made it better for me to learn. Don't think I would of passed as well as I did without Ellie.
