Koko Lotharukpong – Passed with just a couple of minors on my first attempt.

Ian was a very calm, supportive driving instructor. He taught me lots of tips and tricks to pass the driving test (which I passed first try) but also more importantly, Ian taught me how to be a safe driver and gave me the confidence that I needed to feel comfortable driving in all conditions. Thank you.

Ian has been an incredible driving instructor from start to finish. Ian creates a calm, relaxed atmosphere in the car which enables students to learn fast and confidently. His composed, confident demeanor, enables him to create a feeling that when something goes wrong, you feel confident in solving the problem without being judged. Thus, this settles many of the nerves going into your first lesson. His knowledge of the roads shines through in every lesson, enabling any student to pick up from his advice swiftly and carefully. Not only will Ian make you a test ready driver, but he will make you a confident driver on the roads by making you experience moments that will challenge your abilities, making you a more natural driver.

I used Ian for some extra confidence while waiting for my practical test to be done back home, and I couldn’t recommend his services enough!

Thank you so much for helping me pass my driving test.  I was really lacking in confidence before-hand, and had quite high anxiety about being behind the wheel of a car after a bad experience when I was 17.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my concerns and ensure that I was happy in my lessons but also being pushed to improve. I highly recommend Ian to anyone who needs a great instructor. If you’re still teaching in 15 year’s I’ll send my daughter to you! 🙂 Laura
