What Our Students Have to Say
Peter was an exceptional teacher; patient, tenacious and he knows his stuff. I went for the three day intensive course which was perfect. I passed the test first time round. I will recommend this course – and Peter – to anyone looking to pass first time.

I purchased an 18 hour intensive course with no previous road experience. My instructor Ian was the perfect teacher he trusted me witch allowed me to trust myself thus aiding me to pass first time I honestly could not fault his teaching techniques and ability to explain and instruct I will recommend Ian to all my friends and family couldn’t thank you enough mate you gave me knowledge money
I was happy with my instructor Ian but not so happy with my test examiner. I should have passed with a couple minors but instead the examiner over exaggerated and failed me. It was a little expensive for a fail when I deserved to pass. If I thought for a second I made a serious mistake I would not be so unhappy with the outcome.

I would recommend doing a intensive course to anyone as it is a great way of learning to drive. My instructor Zahir Baber was fantastic, he was very friendly and didn’t over complicate tasks. Prior to taking my 30 hour course i had been driving my own car with my parents supervision. I felt that the 30 hour course was more than enough to get me to pass as everything was covered in a short space of time meaning that nothing is forgotten. The mock tests that Zahir carried out ensured that I felt confident for the real test. I feel that One week driving course is a great way of passing your test quickly, without having to drag out learning over a number of months. Again i would like to thank my instructor Zahir for all the help i received during the course.
