Client Reviews – Manual Driving Lessons

Learning to drive had previously been a challenge for me. Having spent thousands of pounds and had lessons with over 6 instructors, I nearly gave up hope of getting a licence. It was only when my job required one that I hesitantly booked an intensive lesson with Britannia. From my first lesson I could tell that my driving instructor- John T was brilliant. He wasn’t like my previous instructors as he wasn’t just an excellent tutor but would always be ever so pleasant and kind. I was always calm which improved my confidence to drive in no time. Thanks to John, I have now passed my practical driving test. I would truly recommend John to anyone out there who needs to pass their driving test.

Peju O - Tooting, London (26th June 2013)

I am thrilled to say I have recently passed my test thanks to the superb driving tuition I received from Paul. Paul was not only excellent at preparing me to pass my test, but he also focussed on improving my driving style in general. In fact during my test the examiner actually commented on how smooth my driving was, and this was down to Paul’s teaching. What also stood out for me was that Paul has gone above and beyond the primary task of a driving instructor and put a real emphasis to after-care of his pupils. We are still in contact and he has provided much needed advice on buying a first car in addition to insurance and other driving queries. Aside from his effectiveness at teaching, I always found Paul a pleasure to talk to interpersonally with a very friendly attitude. Having worked with other driving instructors previously, Paul stood head and shoulders above them I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone wanting to pass their test.

I really enjoyed my driving lessons with Nick. He made it really fun, and I never dreaded my lessons – apart from the early mornings that is! I’d absolutely recommend him as an instructor. He really put me at ease, and helped me get over my nerves. I’m so pleased to have passed! Thank you Nick.

Dean Rose - Epsom, Surrey (13th June 2013)

I passed my driving test with only 2 minors the second time round, with the help of my driving instructor Nick at Britannia Driving School Ltd. I really enjoyed the experience learning to drive in his Audi A1, which is such an awesome car I might add! I consider myself very lucky to have gotten Nick as my driving instructor. He is really friendly, patient, flexible and helped me each step of the way! Thank you very much Britannia Driving School and thank you Nick for the awesome experience of teaching me to drive!

Lucy Zhu - Leatherhead, Surrey (12th June 2013)

Britannia is an excellent driving school. I had been taking driving lessons earlier from the AA but failed to pass my driving exam 6 times but I passed my exam on my first try with britannia thanks to their excellent driving instructor Graham.

Rahim Mahmood - Chertsey, London (12th June 2013)

Passed my driving test about two weeks ago! Thanks again to my instructor Robert

Heather Floyd - Putney, London (11th June 2013)

I had to redo my drivers test as I had not changed my foreign licence to UK licence in time. It was a lot harder to drive in the UK than it was overseas. I managed to pass my test first time thanks to Nick, who helped me change all my bad driving habits. I needed a few lessons but was all worth it. Thanks Nick.

Caron Thorpe - Croydon, Surrey (3rd June 2013)

I recently passed my practical driving test first time, after taking all my lessons with Tim. Tim is an excellent instructor! Before my driving test he made sure I was prepared, covering all he could to make sure I was familiar with my test route. He was very patient when it came to teaching me the different maneuvers and guided me each time in telling me what I did wrong. He also kept a record of my strengths and weaknesses, which enabled me to recognise areas in which I needed more practice on for my test. Tim was always on time and always stayed positive, encouraging me to do better, rather than making me feel bad, even if my lesson didn’t go as well as it should have! I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to learn!! Thank you so much Tim!

Charu Abrol - Hounslow, Middlesex (30th May 2013)

I was really pleased with my driving instructor Nick. I managed to pass my test within 9 months of my first lesson. My instructor took me out of local areas and into London town centre, to experience real driving situations.

Josephine Pickett - Croydon, London (30th May 2013)

I had my driving lessons with Graham and I couldn’t recommend him enough. I passed on my first attempt with 5 minors! He was very patient but even more importantly was extremely encouraging. Even though my mock tests were not the best he encouraged me till the very last minute before my test. This gave me lots of confidence and my test was like a walk in the park, even the dreaded reverse round the corner! I never felt I would be unable to take the test despite being heavily pregnant and Graham graciously bought me hot chocolate and coffee for those ‘special’ days you can expect a pregnant woman will have.

Daytola Popoola - Esher, Surrey (29th May 2013)

I passed my driving test in my first attempt today, all thanks to my instructor Tim. He is an excellent teacher, extremely patient and helpful in preparing me not just for my test but for becoming a driver. Always positive and encouraging even when I was struggling or finding things difficult. I would recommend him to all learners. Thanks Tim!!

Diana Lucas - Isleworth, Middlesex (24th May 2013)

I just passed my driving test today (1st attempt.) Thanks to my instructor Vinni. He is very knowledgeable and teaches you all the rules and things that are covered at the test and is very patient. I strongly recommend Vinni.

Ivan La Rosa - Wimbledon, London (22nd May 2013)

I passed my test last Tuesday after taking lessons with James. A big Thank You James for being such a patient, funny and professional instructor who gave me the confidence I needed to pass my test. Your calmness and methods always kept me focused to succeed in the process. Thanks!
