Fantastic experience: I had plenty of driving experience but decided to book a driving instructor anyway. Man oh man was I glad that I did. I learnt so much from Paul. He truly is a great teacher and goes the extra mile for his students. He will teach the driving routes but also gives those small hints and tips that can be crucial in a test, like slowing down when turning into a particularly difficult street or pointing out a turn where your vision will be obstructed. The drives were great, the conversations even better, the guy has a passion for teaching and it is reflected in his work. I ended up passing on my first go. Thank you again Sensei Paul.

Positive experience: Pretty Good! Teacher (Paul) was very conversational and easy to talk to. Had good tips and was a very good teacher. My only complaint is that after sitting a while in the car, I got a little sore cause I'm quite tall (6.3 ft) and the car was suited to smaller people. Ultimately a great experience. Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Paul is simply the best. Thanks to him I was able to pass on my first attempt. He has amazing knowledge of the area and very informative on exactly what the examiners will be watching out for. His cheerful attitude is always a bonus to calm your nerves and creates friendly environment with the examiner during the test. It was beneficial to get classes so that he could assess areas of improvement and judge how best to guide you. The most important being a class on the day of the test so that potential hiccups in the area were identified and pointed out. Also has a great vehicle with everything you could possibly require to assist you in learning. Thanks Paul.
