Big thanks to Mark for helping me pass my test 1st time. Would recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to drive. Great teaching, punctual, professional and a good laugh. THANK YOU!

Thought i would never pass my test after 4 failed attempts with my first instructor, stopped driving all together for a year, got in touch with Mark and within a few weeks i was ready to give my test another go, managed to pass on the second time due to me doing a silly mistake on the first which was my own fault. Couldn't have asked for a more thorough instructor, who is also very easy to have a bit crack on with and very flexible with lesson times. Cheers Mark

Thanks.

I passed first time today with only 2 minor faults thanks to Mark!
Mark is a brilliant instructor. He's very patient and he has a really good way of describing and explaining things.
My first instructor was crap and put me off driving. After a few reccomendations. I decided to give Mark a ring. Within 10 minutes of my first lesson with Mark I realised just how rubbish my first instructor was!
Well worth the money if you want to pass you test first time!

Also, Mark isn't one of those instructors who is only interested in you for your money. He genuinely wants you to pass as soon as your ready and I think he said I was ready after my 6th or 7th lesson!

Mark always had something to talk about as well, there was never a boring lesson!

Thanks Mark!

Finally passed my test. Big thanks to Mark for his patience, professionalism and friendship. My brother and sister both recommended Mark to me as they both managed to pass thier tests with the help of Mark. It's reassuring to have used an instructor that is so good at his job but someone manages to keep a smile on his face. If you're new to driving I can't recommend anyone better as an instructor than Mark.

Hey I passed my Test today first time! Thanks to Mark. The Best driving instructor i could have asked for. I would highly Recommend this driving school. Reasons why?
1.Friendly
2.Reliable
3.Personal (not just another pupil in a big organisation with 100's of driving instructors)
4.Never makes you feel like you cant do anything.
5.Concentrates on specific areas for your test centre that will help you overcome difficult situations on test routes.
6. Will let you learn from your mistakes and never shouts (well he didn't with me and i did some pretty dangerous things while learning)
7. I hear pupils jumping from instructor to instructor, i assure if you start with Mark, you will finish with Mark

Thanks for everything :-)

When I first started learning I had a rubbish instructor, and then I was recommended to Mark. He was so patient with me and taught me EVERYTHING I needed to know to pass my test. I passed my test 1st time and with only 1 minor! He is so easy to talk to and I would recommend him to EVERYONE. I'm sure my sister will be coming to you for lessons in a couple of years time. Thankyou so much Mark!!! :)

Took me a while to get to the point where I was ready for a test through faults of my own like being too tired for lessons etc. Mark was very patient with me and listen to me constantly talk rubbish and he was great and always a laugh. I can honestly say couldn't have picked a better instructor. Thank you so much!!!
