Client Reviews – Manual Driving Lessons

Highest recommendation for Darren!! Having many past instructors Darren is the most patient, positive and consistent instructor. ive had. He helped me deal with my driving anxieties and helped me become a confident driver. Darren has great knowledge of the test routes and what examiners are looking for to pass you. He helped me feel comfortable behind the wheel and ensured I was well prepared for my test. He was a constant motivation and support regardless of how many mistakes I made. Darren had confidence in my ability and continued to push me. I highly recommend Darren for anybody who wants to pass first time. His lessons are fun, tailored to your needs and he has great driving and teaching techniques. 10/10

Having just passed my driving test- with only 3 minors; I am so much grateful to my driving instructor Graham…And it feels amazing having passed the test while 36 weeks pregnant.

I have been driving for nearly 20 years in Turkey which I found it very challenging to start from scratch to be able to be a qualified driver in England. Graham, provided me all the information and tips to be able to pass the test. With his constant reminders of my mistakes, I was able to correct my mistakes.

He is very knowledgeable and experienced and patient which one needs to be able to pass the test. He know all the routes from his memory and all potential type of examiners that you might have. So I was nearly prepared for anything that might come up. Although I only had 10-12 lessons, the test day was brilliant and I was feeling very confident having known the possibilities.

I was a bit worried before the test since I failed the mock test twice. Having mock test drives was a great idea to have it before the test day. Thanks to Graham, this failure helped me to concentrate more and learn from my mistakes.

One little advice for everyone- visualise your mistakes in your mind, write them down and also write all the routines of driving and practice them in your head before either each lesson or more importantly the test day. I think as well as practical training, mental training helps a lot.

One last driving, although Turkey has a worse driving system and worse drivers, I found it very challenging to drive here in England:))

Highest recommendation for Jon. He always provided clear instructions and a gradual build up of skills. I was especially impressed with his flexibility – he always managed to fit in lessons around my busy work and travel schedule and because of this I earned my license faster than I thought I would. Thank you Jon!

I had fantastic lessons which have taught me skills which will help me with my driving for the future. I loved my lessons and always had a lot of fun with my instructor Elliot. I passed first time with four minors and would really recommend Britannia driving school.

I can’t say enough good things about Darren – the world’s most patient driving instructor. He tirelessly put up with my terrible schedule, constant anxiety and overall fear of driving for many lessons. He was so knowledgeable about the area (Shepherds Bush), the best places to practice around the test centre (Isleworth) and was able to help me finally relax behind the wheel – no small feat. I’d definitely recommend him and Britannia – thank you so much!

Jane who is based in Walton on Thames has recently taught my son to drive and he passed his test first time with no faults after only 10 weeks driving. I would highly recommend Jane.

Hi,

Thank you for all Britannia D.S. team to being helpful from the very begging to the end. After trying couple of driving schools and being unsatisfied made me completely demotivated and I was lucky to find Britannia D.S. and my instructor. So first exam result was successful after a short period of time.
Thank you for providing better quality lessons.

Best Regards

I am very pleased with all the support my instructor Jon provided me with. He has managed to pass myself and my sister with flying colours, a sign of a truly excellent instructor! Jon has great sense of humour, is extremely hard-working and will go out of his way to ensure that you pass.
Thank you Jon!

I just passed my exam at Morden Centre with just 4 mistakes.A big thanks to my amazing instructor John. You are a star.

Darren couldn’t have been any better. He’s knowledge of the road rules, test routes and inside word on driving test examiners is second to none, whilst also being a great laugh, when suitable!

I literally cannot recommend him highly enough.
Darren, I owe you big time mate!

Darren was a fantastic instructor, very nice guy, thanks to him I passed my drivers license very fast and first time, if you want to past first time and fast he’s the man.

First time taking lessons with any driving school, and I have to say, my instructor was absolutely amazing. Never considered looking for anyone else or into a different school.

My instructor, named Elliot, taught me how to drive and so much more, some of which wasn’t expected of him by me nor the school he works for. from the safest ways to drive possible to learn, to habits that would ensure I am never involved in accidents of any type.

He helped me with my theory test preparation also, was always extremely patient with me and my learning speed, amazingly friendly and reassuring. Always felt safe in his hands.

Would highly recommend Elliot for anyone keen to pass their test first time, as did I! Thank you Elliot, I don’t know how to repay you!

Sincerely, Ryan.

If you want to enjoy your driving lessons and pass first time then Darren is the instructor for you!!!

Darren was very patient with me throughout our lessons and always remained cool, calm and collected, even if I made the same mistake 20 times.
He is very motivating even when I wasn’t confident in myself and made sure I always understood where I went wrong and how to improve.
He ensures you are well prepared not only for your driving test but for future independent driving.
I could not recommend him enough, thank you for all your help and support Darren 🙂

V good lessons. Concise and easy to learn with John O. John was a friendly guy whose advice meant I walk away w a pass! I passed at Morden Test Centre with just 1 minor. Many thanks, John!

Thank you so much Elliot ! Such a nice guy who genuinely cares about your driving technique and safety on the road. Got me to Pass first time using NLP! Really easy to understand, and doing 2 hour lessons really helps to develop your ability quickly.
Best early Christmas present.

Elliot was the best driving instructor I have ever had. Despite the amount time I have failed on my driving practical year he never gave up me. He was very supportive and when I first started he was very clear and should me all the right guideline to drive the car safely and correctly I couldn’t of passed without him, I would recommend him to anyone, 10/10 best instructor ever.

Very happy with my lessons, thank you to John for making them engaging and providing me with everything I needed to know to pass my test first time.

I want to thank Robert for being a great instructor from the beginning, helping me to pass my test on the first attempt today. Thank you!
