Client Reviews – Manual Driving Lessons

I passed my driving test at the first attempt which is in no small part thanks to my driving instructor Tim. He is extremely thorough, knowledgeable and patient. He gives handy tips that are invaluable when tackling tricky maneuvers. I can’t speak highly enough of Tim and he was extremely friendly and put me at ease throughout my learning process. I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of learning to drive.

I had a variety of instructors from other schools but passed yesterday with only 3 minors thanks mainly to Vinni at Britannia. He’s a great instructor who is very thorough and helps you to iron out any small errors you may have picked up. He’s also great at boosting your confidence and picking up on the areas where you need most work. I really feel he was a big part of my passing yesterday, so thanks Vinni!

I passed my practical first time on the 7th of December! I’d like to thank my instructor Neil from Britannia for all his help and especially his patience with me and for making me laugh of course =) couldn’t of done it without you. My experience has been amazing and I’m going to miss it.

I just passed my driving test with my instructor Nick. Firstly I would like to say he has a fantastic car and teaching method. Because of him I passed 2nd time after being with another driving school. I passed with two minor errors which I am very pleased about and can not thank Nick enough it’s the best Christmas present ever. Thank you nick and Britannia.

Britannia Driving School is the one to learn from. I passed first time and am ecstatic. I had put off learning for so long, and wish to thank my instructor Charlie and Britannia. Charlie is a fabulous instructor who was always happy, full of encouragement, calm, patient, very knowledgeable and gave me the confidence to believe that I could drive. He prepared me fully for the practical test and I am so grateful to him. Charlie, you are an absolute star!!! Thank -you , so much. Would like to add that Britannia Driving School reflects a positive, informative and professional approach to learning, well done, I will recommend you to others.

I have just passed my test today, Woo-hoo! and I want to say a big THANK YOU to John – my instructor. Thank you for being You (Professional, friendly, caring and an humorist). I am very grateful for your patience, encouragement (which were always accompanied by sweets, will miss them lol..), and boy!! for nagging at my mistakes – John pays special attention to detail and gave me advice and tips on how to improve every time. You made a safe driver out of me. A massive thank you to Britannia for linking me to John! He is definitely one of your best. I will recommend John to everyone. Will keep in touch John! All the best.

THANK YOU SO MUCH to Robert, who helped me pass the driving test. He was an amazing instructor and I would definitely recommend him as an instructor. Thanks again, Robert from Britannia.

I wanted to say a massive thank you to Karen my instructor (well was) you have been fantastic!! You have helped me change my life! I am so happy you came to me that day for my first lesson and since then you have told me I will get to the end and pass and I did 🙂 You have had so much patience with me and had the tears lol I just wanted to let you know you are fantastic at what you do and I will tell everyone I know to call you up and as I said I will be back for my refresher lessons. THANK YOU xxxxxxxx

I had a wonderful experience with Britannia. Paul was an amazing instructor and as a result I managed to pass first time without any minors! It was a fantastic feeling and I would definitely recommend them to other learners.

Passed my test first go!! Thanks to Robert from Britannia!

Thanks so much to Nick, who helped me to pass my driving test last week. As a slightly older student I have full time work commitments and Nick was great at fitting lessons in around my hectic schedule – including a late session the night before my test after a last minute panic! The car was amazing to drive and Nick was a really patient and fair teacher (much more positive than my previous instructor!). I’d definitely recommend Nick (and Britannia) to anyone looking to take driving lessons.

Dear Britannia, I am very happy with your instructor Lizzie, she is a very good instructor and because of her I passed my test today. I am glad she was my instructor on the test day and that all thanks to Britannia Driving School. Thank you for your very good service with your clients and I want to thank every member or Britannia but especially Lizzie.

I would like to thank my brilliant driving instructor Jane. Thanks to her I passed my driving test on the 1st attempt. She is a highly recommended driving instructor. She is calm, polite and has a natural talent in the way she teaches her pupils. I will really miss her lessons. If any one wants to really pass their driving test as well as become a confident and safe driver, then make sure you ask for Jane!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brilliant!!! I passed on the first attempt, this was mostly to do with Mick and his ability to focus in on what the weaknesses of his students are and improve them. He was very friendly to work with and I got along with him brilliantly. He was also very patient and having driven previously in another country, I had picked up a lot of bad habits that needed ironing out. I will recommend Mick to everyone I know. Thank you Mick!

A HUGE HUGE THANK YOU to my driving instructor Mary!!! I passed my test (albeit at my 4th attempt) last Friday, although I am pretty sure it would have been a lot quicker if I had started with Britannia and Mary. Mary is absolutely fantastic and without a doubt the best driving instructor this side of SW and I would recommend her to anyone looking to learn how to drive in a lovely, comfortable and fun environment. She is encouraging, always puts her students first and incredibly supportive (I can’t count the number of times she accommodated my busy schedule for early morning and late night lessons). I cannot thank you enough Mary and I wish you all the best. Winnie xxx

A very big thank you to my driving instructor Vinni. I passed my test (2nd attempt) with only 4 minors. I only wish I had Vinni as a driving instructor to begin with. I had terrible luck with instructors (unfortunately I had 8 in total) and thought that it was a mission to learn how to drive. But I didn’t give up and Vinni at Britannia- I guess I saved the best for last!! Thank you so much. Vinni is an amazing driving instructor and would recommend him to anyone.

Just passed my test first time today. Want to say a big, big thank you to Lizzie for helping me, great instructor. Would recommend to anyone, thanks Lizzie.

I would like to say a BIG thank to Mary who has made me become a confident driver. She is a talented, experienced and professional instructor. Not only that, she is very pleasant, patient, honest, a mother and a friend. I had an excellent experience with her, she has done a really great job. I’m very grateful to her. My big thanks to Britannia Driving School as well. I would recommend Britannia Driving School and Mary to anyone who would like to learn to drive. ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH MARY …. PS BUT I MISS OUR DRIVING!

Britannia driving school is fantastic! From the moment I called them until today, where I have passed my test, they have been professional, helpful and friendly. More importantly, they put me in touch with my instructor Tim, who has now become a friend. My nerves was one of the reasons that it took me so long to get through the whole driving process. Tim has been nothing short of a Saint when it comes to patience and guidance throughout the period that I have been driving with him. His instruction is kept simple, and he explains step by step how to proceed with accuracy. I will be doing my Pass Plus with Tim to cover motorways. I could not recommend Tim more highly! Especially if you can be fairly nervous. Tim will look after you 100%!! Thanks Tim! See you in a few weeks. Thanks Britannia for your professionalism, for placing me with the most awesome instructor, and for finding me a test date off the back of a cancellation so quickly!!!

At the age of 42, I was learning to drive pretty much from scratch (only having had a few lessons while in my teens). This was not something I looked forward to doing, especially since I live in London. But my experience with Britannia has been great. My driving instructor (Mary) was good at making sure I made progress (without pushing me into situations I wasn’t ready for). I have now passed my test – I would recommend this driving school to anyone else in my situation.
