Client Reviews – Manual Driving Lessons

Britannia is a well organised company and handled voucher dispatch pretty quickly. I was assigned Graham as my instructor and would like to commend him on a fantastic job done – his tutelage was excellent and all his tips came in handy. I passed my driving test on the first attempt and couldn’t have done it without him. Thanks Graham, you are a star! Thanks Britannia for assigning me to Graham too!

I passed my test at the beginning of November at the age of 62. I really appreciate the patience, encouragement and skill of my instructor, Keith Price, and also to Robert, who took over for the last few weeks and showed confidence in me, despite our brief acquaintance.

Big thank you to Elliot for giving me fantastic driving instruction over 10 hours. I passed my driving test on 16 December on my second attempt, after failing with another instructor/school after a one week intensive course. Although I possessed decent driving skills after the course, I was not polished enough and that was evident in the first test. Elliot was able to sort out some of the kinks and apply different techniques to get me to drive better and more safely. He is patient, firm but instructive and has a very nice manner. He works hard to feed things into your sub-conscious so you are more likely to do them automatically rather them think about them – which is a great skill to have so you can focus on other aspects of driving. Thank again Elliot.

Hello,

Luan here, writing a review for my instructor Elton. 14 years behind the wheel, 0 in UK. 32 year old professional.

Passed my test today with 1 minor after 16hrs with Elton.

I’ve had 3 different instructors previously with 2 different schools before I found Britannia. I wished I found you guys sooner 🙂

On the very first lesson my instructor Elton was able to identify my major faults and bad habits which corresponds with my previous test sheet that I failed on. He had a plan to work with me on these weak areas and by the time the 15 hour was up we were both very confident to take the test. I did not pass the first time again but I must say it was a fluke, perhaps my examiner had a bad day. Elton was confident in his instructions and assessment of my ability that he said that I do not need any more instructions. I appreciated his honesty very much (there are schools out there that wants as many hours of tuition from you as possible.) I signed up for the test again through Britannia. I did but book one extra hour with him to warm up. A month later, we spent an hour warming up and off to the test centre we went. It was Hither Green too, one of the centre with the lowest pass rate… I passed with 1 minor. I don’t think they let anyone pass without a single mark anyway so I am very happy with the results…

Very happy with the quality of instructions, professionalism and courtesy I was afforded by Elton. Not once did he use his phone for other things (scheduling another student, personal call etc…) His style is adaptive to the student’s pace. Never too much information. His instructions are properly backed up with books and visual aids.

Would recommend Elton to anyone who would like a solid understanding of driving in the UK.

My experience with the office team at Britania is also very good. Thank you all very much for making my overall experience with the school a very positive one.

Fantastic driving school with brilliant drivers! Started off with Keith and loved every lesson, grew quickly in confidence and learned to love driving very quickly! Finished my driving lessons with Maria and again loved driving with her and passed first time! Would highly recommend them both for lessons, especially for nervous people like me they really really help you gain confidence! Thank you Keith and Maria!

Mary was a fantastic teacher! She was patient, but at the same time pushed me to achieve my goal of passing my practical test. I cannot believe I learnt to drive so quickly! I recommend Britannia to everyone, and especially Mary! Massive thank you! 🙂

Passed my test on my first attempt and would like to say a big Thank You to Elliot my fantastic driving instructor. He is extremely knowledgeable and I am so glad I had the best to work with me on my driving test.

Would like to say a big thank you to my driving instructor Mary for all her help and patience with me throughout my driving experience and then passing my test this morning couldn’t have done it without all her help throughout the weeks x

Just passed my test few days ago I deeply recommend Britannia especially instructors Maria & Keith.. Cheers

A big thank you to John Tyson for helping me to pass my test first time! A fantastic instructor who was extremely patient and supportive making lessons enjoyable whilst teaching a valuable life skill. I would highly recommend John to anyone.

Passed test first time today with 2 minors.
My driving instructor was Jon, he was very helpful throughout the learning process by answering and questions and fixing any mistakes . He always shows up on time and makes the lessons enjoyable with his good jokes .
Would recommend to anybody.

I had driving lessons with both Keith and Tim who were brilliant!

They had a relaxed and friendly attitude, while always giving clear instructions about every aspect of driving. I’d definitely recommend them both to anyone who asked!

I passed my driving test on 1st December and I would like to say a big thank you to both my instructors Mary and Jane.They both have been very patient, supportive and reassuring. I would definitely recommend them as they have been brilliant driving instructors.

I started lessons with Elliot (who is fluent in both English and French) in Oct 14 and have since taken 35-40 hours with him. He uses neuro-linguistic programming to access the subconscious mind to make driving an effortless task. He’s a great instructor who does a fantastic job of making sure you learn what you need to know to drive safely. Passed my test with 1 minor and couldn’t be happier. Thanks Elliot!

I would recommend Charlie to anybody, both with experience and without. He is hugely knowledgeable, very calm and patient and is a great all round person which makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. I passed my test first time.

John O is an insightful man who’s constant reassurance and passion is without question what led me to passing my Practical test. His calm and collective nature gives you confidence no matter how many times you stall. HIGHLY RECOMEND.

I passed my test on 15th October in my second attempt. I was very scared to drive! But Nick gave me all necessary support to build my confidence and driving skills.
He is highly professional and a highly qualified instructor. His sense of humour and patience made my lessons enjoyable and motivation on not give up. I would definitely recommend Britannia and Nick.
Thank to his determination in teaching and explaining me clearly (and several time!), I am not scared to drive anymore and I do enjoy driving (yuppie!). He calmed me down and helped me focus during every session.
Nothing to complain, I highly recommend Nick without no doubts.

A huge thank you to Nick! I did it!!!

John O. is an excellent instructor, with a wealth of driving (and life!) knowledge. His lessons are relaxed and productive resulting in an enjoyable learning experience. I passed the test comfortably and am a confident and safe driver due to his tuition. Couldn’t ask for more, thanks John!

I’ve just passed the test with only 2 minors. I’m more than happy with this result and I’d like to thanks John O for his help, his lessons are excellent with a good sense of humour.

So happy I passed my driving test and that I had Neil as a driving Instructor I can honestly say he helped me with my nervous and his a excellent teacher I will be recommending Britannia and Neil to all my friends thank you
