Client Reviews – Manual Driving Lessons

I would highly recommend James as a driving instructor, you couldn’t ask for a nicer and more knowledgeable instructor in the run up to your test – a great bloke! James was always on time and flexible with the lessons, and it was extremely useful that he was able to teach at weekends. I passed at Morden Test Centre and had my lessons in Wimbledon. If you are at all nervous about passing your test James is your man!

Passed my driving test yesterday with only 2 minor faults, all thanks to my excellent instructor Tim. He was a brilliant instructor and a great motivator and gave me the confidence I needed to pass my test. He was very encouraging and has a great sense of humor. I would recommend him to everyone. Once again thanks Tim and Britannia.

Just passed my test first time round and only 4 minors after taking lessons with Paul. Thanks Paul for being an absolute legend of an instructor, for always being patient and putting up with me talking to myself through maneuvers, honestly couldn’t have done it without you! If anyone is thinking of choosing a driving school I would highly recommend Britannia and specifically Paul as an instructor, he’s absolutely brilliant!

I passed my test a week ago and would just like to say Nick is an amazing instructor. The methods he uses to help you succeed and become a confident driver are second to none. Would recommend Nick to anyone wanting to successfully succeed in passing your test. Just listen to what he says and you will pass. Cheers Nick. Legend!

At 48 years old, after a couple of failings, I finally succeeded in passing my practical exam and I must say it would not have been possible without the help of my driving instructor Jon. He kept believing in me, giving me all the necessary support and corrections in order to make me pass my exam with only ONE minor. He was always there for me, during his vacation he still came out for me and the last couple of days he even went so far as to leave his sick bed to prepare me for my practical test today. You can tell Jon really takes pride in his work and goes to the extra mile for his students. As nobody is the same, Jon has the ability to adapt his teaching methods to each person, making it fit for purpose. He has the patience if you do make the same mistakes over and over again, to keep pointing them out to you and tells/shows you how to correct them. Thank you also to the Britannia School, after failing, my next test was scheduled in no time and fitted around my busy working schedule. Britannia, you have a good one in Jon. I would not let him go. I would highly recommend the Britannia School and the driving instructor Jon in particular!

Never wrote a review before, but after looking through many sites, this one has been most helpful…thank you.

I am so delighted that I finally cleared my driving license. Full credit goes to Vinni who has been my instructor. Vinni is such a skilled person and he knew exactly what mistakes I have been making. After trying lessons with several instructors I finally came to Vinni. His teaching is totally different from that of others. He clearly identified my weaknesses and came up with a plan to overcome them. He has very detailed focus and gives an honest opinion on what I had to improve. He not only trained me for clearing the test but also gave me instructions to be a safe driver on the road. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to see a change in the way they are driving and clear the license.

My instructor Jon was easy to get on with, encouraging and very patient with the mistakes I made at first. He went the extra mile (excuse the pun!) to make sure I was thoroughly prepared for both my theory and practical test. I will be recommending him to everyone I know who needs lessons. Thanks for everything!

Graham has been an excellent instructor, giving me all the tips that I needed to pass my test. Thanks again Graham.

My driving instructor Neil was wonderful, always made driving seem fun and always good to chat to. I would recommend Neil to anyone as he’s a great teacher and I know they will be safe and have fun at the same time.

I’ve just recently passed a practical driving test. Jon was my instructor, he is an amazing person I have so much respect for this man. As an older learner I was nervous about starting my driving lessons but he was very professional, punctual, patient, and fun to work with, he certainly knew how to motivate and give me confidence in order to get me through the driving test and I could not have done it without him! You are very fortunate to have an employee like him working for your company, he is the best of the best and because of him I will always recommend Britannia Driving School and especially Jon. For whatever it’s worth I feel he should be paid top salary you’ve got gold on your hands. Thank you very much Jon my wonderful instructor for everything, very much appreciated!

I have just passed my test at the Morden test centre in South West London after 29 hours of lessons over 6 weeks. My instructor was Paul, he was fantastic. I had previously had one lesson with another driving school, which turned out to be a bad experience and really put me off, but as soon as I got in the car with Paul I was put at ease. He is calm, relaxed and extremely knowledgeable, in other words he really knows his stuff and makes the lesson fun at the same time. I would never have believed that 6 weeks after my first lesson I would be taking, and passing my test! And that is down to Paul. I cant recommend him enough, if you have any doubts or worries about driving, give Paul a try and before you know it you’ll be driving safely and confidently and you will actually enjoy it!

Neil is a fantastic, very experienced teacher with genuine talent for teaching. I started my lessons being absolutely terrified of driving and having had a bad experience of trying to learn many years ago. He immediately found the right approach for me and I came home with a smile after my first lesson. He made every lesson as relaxed and enjoyable as possible. I felt safe with him in the car and eventually started to feel safe on the road. I passed first time! I cannot recommend Neil highly enough. He has got everything you would look for in a driving instructor!

I could not give Britannia a higher recommendation. I had been trying to pass my driving test for 3 years before I passed first time with my Britannia instructor Jane. I felt I was a competent driver but would crumble with nerves during the test. Jane not only taught me how to drive confidently and safely, but also prepared me so well for the test that I had no need to feel nervous. I passed with flying colours! I have recommended Jane to friends and am looking to do the Pass Plus course with her soon.

I highly recommend Jane, my driving teacher. She is a great teacher who really works on the students weaknesses. We practice the same over and over again until I finally got it! She is very kind and interesting to talk to. Also, very hard working so she gave me class on weekends or early mornings, so I could fit more hours in a short space of time. I had a few other instructors in the past and I can surely say that she is the best of all of them. Yesterday I passed my test, thanks so much JANE!

I’m writing a review about John, he is an amazing teacher, knows exactly how to get the best out of you so that when it comes time for your test you are more than prepared. If you are lucky enough to get him as your instructor, listen to everything he says, there is method to his madness, and there is wisdom in everything he says so listen and take it on board. I did and passed first time, and if you get a chance do the pass plus with him as well. Thank you John!

With the help and guidance of my instructor Tim, I passed my driving test first time today. Tim taught me not only how to pass my test, but predominantly how to be a safe driver for as long as I’m on the road. From lesson one, his clear and concise explanations ensured that I knew exactly what I was supposed to be doing. He did not leave me feeling uneasy or worried about any aspects where I encountered difficulties, he took me through them again and again until the problem was solved. I would recommend Tim to anyone without hesitation!! I must thank Tim for imparting his wisdom to me, in a manner which made learning to drive wholly enjoyable. Cheers mate, hope Liverpool give you something to cheer about!

Vinni was an easy instructor, taught me well and was patient with me. Also gave me good advice about taking the test.

Britannia driving school, not only has dedicated and passionate driving instructors needed to aid you with the essential skills needed to pass you’re driving test, but also the employees at Britannia’s head office make you like one of the ‘gang’ if you have the opportunity to stop by. I had the opportunity to spend five amazing weeks with my instructor Jane who was welcoming, bubbly but also reassuring, which put me at ease from the very first basic lesson I had. So if you’re looking for a driving school who is reasonably priced, who will put you at ease knowing your instructor is trained to the highest level, a driving school that won’t waste your time and money, Britannia is the driving school for you. The only thing I would say is now I’ve passed my driving test I’m sad I won’t have my intensive lessons with Jane anymore.

I have just passed my driving test today, thanks to the Awesome Charlie. Even though I may have driven him crazy with my ditzy self. I can say I don’t think I’d of passed without him. I will definitely be back for my Pass Plus 😀
