i had martyn for five lessons now and i finally started building my confidence back up driving thinking i’d finally found an instructor that wasn’t gonna mess me around as my previous one did, how wrong i was after 5 lessons i had another one booked in and it was only until i messaged him hours after my lesson was due could i book another lesson that he decided to explain he’d forgot book me in that day so i thought yeah easy mistake to make so yeah i’ll give him benefit of doubt so i booked a lesson for the week after and then again he decided to tell me after my lesson was due that his car has then ‘broken’ but after reading other reviews it seems other people have had the very same experience so all i can say is find an instructor that won’t just be robbing your money, actually shows up when expected to, takes you on different routes and doesn’t just vape and sit on his phone whilst your driving .

Sounds familiar to another review cancelled last min saying car issues promised a free lesson . Didn't turn up no contact.... my son finished work early so he could go he now out of pocket and time ... not very professional. If he couldn't commit he should of said so ... gave benift of dought the first time as issues do arise but the second time is a joke ... he sat for two hours waiting nervously for nothing.... thanks but no thanks ....

Passed first time with Martyn. He was always very professional. And prompt. Had a previous instructor who I felt rushed me into new things when I was ready and this set me back. Martyn took his time. And explained everything clearly. I don’t think I’d have passed without him. Thanx mate 💪🏼 Read Less

Had about 10 lessons with Martyn and each time he would drive us to the same estate and for the full hour I would do the same lap over and over again. He would then drive us back. Martyn knew I wasn’t new to driving as I had quite a few lessons with other instructors prior to this, so I was definitely capable of doing a lot more. It felt more like he was just taking the £35 and then doing the bare minimum for the hour. To top this off, he had canceled and rearrange lessons at the last minute a couple of times. I was once waiting to be picked up and it had been 10 minutes since the agreed time so I sent him a message and he got back straight away saying he had booked me in for the week following by mistake and then offered me a free lesson to make up for it. At this point I had lost all trust in this driving instructor and decided it was time to look for someone new. It was just £350 down the drain. Thankfully, I have had a completely different experience with my new instructor Read Less

Shocking. 1st lesson he cancelled on very short notice and the second due to "car problems" he then offered a free lesson to make up for it. He continuesly moved lessons at last minute. Martyn knew I sometimes worked away and had a 2 week holiday planned yet when it came to me going on holiday he never answered the phone or text me back again like he was annoyed I went on a holiday he just completely ghosted me after approx 10 hours with him and those 10 hours we spent doing the same thing and route each lesson. Complete waste of my time and money. Had to start with someone else who has provided a completely different experience. Also he was constantly on his phone and vaping while I was driving. I would avoid! Read Less
