System Driving School Avis 

From the very beginning of my driving experience I’ve been with system and my instructors name was Marie, she was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and understanding and has taught me to drive with a lot of care and knowledge of the roads, I can’t thank her enough for all of her hard work that she put into me even when we were both feeling like deaths door, thank you system and mainly thank you Marie!

My driving instructor was absolutely amazing! Couldn't have asked for better guidance and would 1000% recommend to everyone I know!

My time with system driving school was great! I had the best instructor ever, Sarah helped build my confidence in my driving resulting in me passing first time. Thank you so much !

I didn't know how to drive, so I started from scratch and trained with my teacher. He guided me on the right path until I overcame all the dangers and found success. They are the best, and thank you very much.

David is a calm, friendly instructor who always made sure that I felt comfortable before moving on to something new. His lessons never felt rushed and I thank him for helping me pass first time. I enjoyed every lesson that I had with him and I'm pleased that it led to a positive result. Thank you for everything! Highly Recommend!

Dan is exceptional, he made the driving lessons experience enjoyable. He was flexible and willing to explain. All thanks to System Driving School.

Had a brilliant experience with system driving company from start to finish. My instructor Lee Gadsby was great help and a great instructor and helped me pass my test in just 3 months. I had no prior driving experience and could not have asked for a better teacher. Completely recommend system as a company and fully endorse Lee as an instructor.

Massive thank you to Lee at System. I started with a little bit of driving experience but lacked confidence. Every lesson helped me to improve my driving ability, giving me the tools I needed to be a confident and safe driver. Lee was always honest, gave me constructive feedback, clear instructions and supportive guidance, I honestly could not recommend him enough.

Great experience, would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to have a smooth and relaxing journey when learning to drive a car.

Martin has gone above and beyond to help me realise my potential, I’m so happy to say he is the reason I passed my test today . And he will only allow you to go forward with your test if he feels you’re ready ! Thanks to his patience and knowledge I passed. So grateful!

5 star!!!! My driving instructor Tracey was nothing but amazing , helpful , caring and just an amazing person , helped me massively through this whole process would recommend her to anyone , resulting in me passing my test first time today and couldn’t of done it without her help ❤️

Ash is an amazing instructor as he is very patient and helpful. He also reassured me a lot when it came to my test which helped me pass first time! Learning with him has been a very beneficial experience and I feel much more confident driving now

My instructor helped me learn everything I needed for the test at a pace that suited me, and gave constructive criticism throughout, which helped me improve as a driver significantly.

Andy, my instructor, was great. He’s patient, doesn’t mess you about, and lessons don’t feel like a waste of money. He makes you a priority when your test date is near approaching, so I was prepared. He’s also honest, telling me if I was ready or not for a test, and especially between tests as he didn’t rinse me of cash, as we would take a break before I had another test date because he knew I was ready. Thanks Andy!

I spent my time learning to drive with Grant Richardson who was a great instructor and so I would thoroughly recommend him for his calming and patient style of teaching and his willingness to adapt the lesson to my needs, allowing me to improve my skills and achieve a first time pass

Kelsie was a brilliant and patient instructor and was super friendly, I loved all of our lessons together!

Alan was a very friendly driving instructor, he helped me with my driving and guided me to pass my driving test and drive safely. I would recommend! Thank you!!

Instructor was great and felt really comfortable with the whole thing even though I was really anxious to start. I truly recommend this driving school and the instructor Scott

Such an amazing instructor! After having a bad experience with a previous instructor Mick really helped to build back up my confidence, he’s so patient and explained everything really well. I never felt anxious in any of the lessons and always looked forward to them. Couldn’t recommend him enough 😊

After two very poor experiences with previous driving instructors, I was highly skeptical about starting again. However, Mike Linsell completely exceeded my expectations from day one. I started with him in October and passed my test first time in July, doing 2 - 3 lessons a week. From our very first conversation, he took the time to understand my past issues, explained how his approach would differ, and immediately put me at ease.

Mike is a truly student-oriented instructor. Instead of pushing unnecessary continuous lessons, he actively focuses on getting you ready to pass. What sets him apart is his collaborative approach. Every lesson started with a discussion where he asked for my input on the day's plan. As a learner who values having a voice, this was incredible. He perfectly adapts to his students' individual strengths, needs, and preferences - whether you want to co-create your plan or need step-by-step guidance from scratch.

Even when I made serious mistakes, Mike never spoke rudely. Instead, we calmly discussed the rationale behind my actions and reasoned through the correct approach together. This constructive feedback helped everything click.

Before Mike, I had a paralyzing fear of high speeds, roundabouts, and narrow country roads. No other tutor could help me shake it, but Mike worked his magic and I had absolute trust in his guidance. When I was too nervous and driving extremely slowly on tight country roads, he didn't pressure me. He gave me a few minutes' break, took the time to understand my panic, and then took me back out to guide me through it step-by-step. He coached me exactly when to accelerate, when to slow down, and when to pick up speed again until the technique clicked and we had a perfect experience!

Thanks to his patience, he also boosted my confidence on normal roundabouts before teaching me how to master complex spiral roundabouts. He broke down how to read road signs early so I always knew exactly which lane to stay in, and he even taught me how to navigate using a Sat Nav. We practiced on 70mph roads until my fear of speed and lane changing completely vanished. For maneuvers, his mirror-based techniques for reverse bay parking made it incredibly easy to understand exactly when to start reversing.

Ultimately, I passed my test the first time, and it was entirely down to Mike’s unwavering faith in me. His daily reminders of "You’ve got this" and "I have complete faith in you" were the exact words that made me believe in myself. He is not just an instructor; he is a supportive ally who is genuinely invested in his students' success.

My advice to anyone looking to book: Tell Mike Linsell exactly what your fears and strengths are, what you need support with, and what stage you’re at. He will work out a personalized plan that suits you just right!
