1st Driving School Avis 

After only having a week to find a new driving instructor after being let down by the one I had I found Kev Hopps at 1st Driving school. He is the most lovely man ever, he puts you at ease and is very knowledgeable. Thanks to him I passed my driving test first time. I’d recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much!!

My instructor Stuart was very professional and thorough. He put a lot of effort on me to get through my test. For a person like me who had never driven a car before and a slow learner he has really helped me to achieve this in my first attempt . Thank you so much.

My instructor Dan was very good he was able to break some bad habits I picked up with a previous instructor and put me at ease when driving. He’s a very knowledgeable instructor and he’s able to explain things very easily. He was very quick at getting me through my lesson and making sure I was test ready. I passed my test first time and am very grateful to Dan and would recommend him to anyone.

Had a wonderful instructor that believed in my abilities and taught me better ways of completing the manoeuvres. They helped me refresh my driving when I had a test within 2 weeks.

Had a great experience learning with Adiel, he is extremely knowledgeable about his craft and holds you to a very high standard.
I went into my test feeling very relaxed and prepared, passed first time with 5 minors. I would highly recommend Adiel as an instructor!

Booking was very easy, would recommend.

There's absolutely no words to describe how amazing Stuart is from 1st driving school. I suffered severe anxiety around driving and getting into cars prior to learning with stu due to bad experiences in the past and poor health but stu made me feel so relaxed and at ease. He's calm, patient and understanding just like driving with a pal!! I couldn't of asked for a better instructor. Highly highly recommend!!

Andy was great supportive and lessons we’re flexible around my work

Kevin Hopps was an amazing instructor and helped me pass first time with only 1 minor. Would highly recommend any new drivers starting out to go with Kev, lovely bloke!

First driving instructor Eric really did help me with my confidence massively , and taught me not to give up , he was very patient and explained things clearly . I really can’t thank him enough would highly recommend

Michael was really helpful and patient from start to finish, thoroughly recommend.

Adiel Khan phones me 4 times to book a lesson and I answer after the 4th call cause I am at work. We chat and he seems down to earth and I am happy to take a lesson from him. He says that he is free on July 2nd at 12:30 and we book for that time. The time comes around and I am waiting 15 minutes so I call him to ask where he is. He then has no clue who I am and says that I need to have paid for the lesson before I book. He said that no one gets a lesson unless they have paid first. However in our initial booking call at no point does he mention to me that I have to pay before the lesson. I call him later that day to rebook another lesson and this time I will pay first however he starts to lie to me saying that he told me in that previous call that I only take students who have paid before their lesson. However he made no mentions at all of this in our initial phone call. I was so irritated because he lied about saying something he did not that I had it out with him in a phone call and he hung up on me.

I said this was unacceptable after and left this review. Was ok with him untill he lied about this. Very unhappy he wasted my time.

Adil did not ask for pre payment yet he booked the lesson anyway. Essentially waisting 3 weeks of my time waiting for this lesson when I could have been finding something else. I must make this very clear he did not ask for a pre payment and what upset me was he was claiming he did in such a rude tone over the phone.

Had Julian as an instructor and passed first time! He's really friendly and good at making you feel confident about your driving, as well as finding the bits you need to improve on and helping you overcome them. Would definitely recommend to anyone, including nervous drivers (I am!).

Want to say a massive thank you to Kev. What a great instructor!! Always made me feel so comfortable and didn’t get angry if I did things wrong! Was very calm nd collected! Cracked jokes and made you feel at ease! Couldn’t have asked for a better first driving instructor !

A really helpful, kind and supportive driving instructor who understood my strengths and weaknesses and helped me become confident enough to gain all the skills needed to pass my test first time.
I would recommend Dan Evans, great instructor.
1st Driving School is easy to book lessons with and reasonably priced.

Steve sanghera helped me pass my test 1st time.
Was a much better rxperience than companues i were with before.

Usman is an experienced, reliable and trustworthy instructor.

He explained concepts clearly. He gave feedback to me timely, and patiently, when I made any mistakes. Under his endurance, I picked up my on-the-road experience quickly and was able to rectify my bad habits promptly.

I was able to understand the importance and rationale of various rules. I was able to be trained as a safety driver on the road. Largely owing to the effort and guidance of Usman, I was able to clear my test in my first attempt. Definitely recommend him!

Steve was a fantastic instructor who helped me pass first time. He was very patient and was encouraging at all times. He gives good constructive criticism when needed and praises you when you do well. All round a great an instructor that I would definitely recommend!

I had Julian as my instructor for about 6 months and I passed first time! He made sure that I was fully prepared for the test, teaching me how to deal with difficult circumstances and made me feel comfortable from the first lesson when I was a beginner. I 100% would recommend Julian to anyone, thanks very much.

I had constructive criticism throughout my lessons to know what exactly to improve on.

Great experience throughout, Kev was a great instructor and helped get me to the point of passing. Highly recommend.
