I loved learning with Jackie Stubbs, she helped me so much not only with learning to drive but driving whilst handling my ADHD and anxiety. I would definitely recommend Jackie if you struggle with these. So happy to have passed my test.

What a brilliant company this is....I had been learning to drive with them, now I'm a qualified driver. My instructor, Mark Hampton was amazing, very helpful, patient and understanding....can't recommend them highly enough, whatever your needs are they can work around them...

I couldn't recommend Lynda more to anyone learning to drive. Lynda takes the time you need, very good to chat with and just cares about you passing your test, putting a lot of confidence in you and getting that confidence in yourself as well.

Big thank you to Matt for being my instructor these past few months, considering I was a nervous driver and had zero confidence at the start, he built me up and has been so patient with me. I passed my test first time, couldn't have done it without him!

I would like to leave a 5 star review for John Wills he was an amazing driving instructor for our daughter Millie. He built her confidence from the pre learner lessons right through to the day she sat her test. He is patient, down to earth and is really easy to get on with. He relates amazingly well to people and is always calm and positive. Nothing was a bother and he was flexible and communicated really well with her regarding dates, times and pick up points for lessons. He was straight down the line and made her lessons fun, interesting and varied routes to improve her driving experience. He was very thorough and kept her Total Drive app updated so we could all see the progress she was making. He was totally supportive throughout all her lessons and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend John to others and have no hesitation to give him a 5 star review.

Jane Parkin

Ade Smith is the best you could get, passed with zero faults first try. Couldn't ask for more than that.

I would highly recommend Scott McMillan, he is a very calm, patient and accommodating driving instructor. He explains everything thoroughly, making the driving easy to understand and far less stressful than you would think. I had the confidence I needed to pass first try with no minors thanks to his excellent teaching.

Well done to Megan Vere-Hoose who passed her driving test in carlisle with John Collins. We asked Megan to review us and she had this to say...........

When looking for a driving instructor they had to be able to teach me before i went onto the road (Megan started her lessons on our Pre-learner site in Houghton) and they had to be highly recommended, Megan also wanted an instructor who she could get along with easily. When learning to drive Megan had initially thought it was going to be much trickier than it was but she said she found that her instructors teaching methods were positive and that John always gave constructive feedback. Megan has said that she would recommend New starters to others as we were very proffesional and friendly and she also added there was nothing to improve.
