Used Paul for both my son's when learning to drive. Both passed first time.
Paul is very patient as my son's had different abilities, Paul still had them pass first time.
Lessons are available any day of the week, any time of day or evening. My youngest was even able to get some motorway experience whilst a learner - very important skill.
Highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to learn to drive, not just youngsters.

Paul is an amazing instructor, he really helped me gain confidence on the roads and there was never a lesson he didn’t have time and patience with me. He always makes sure his students are prioritised. He is always on time and really reliable. As a younger girl he really made me feel welcome and comfortable in the car, always made conversations and was a joy to have as an instructor. He taught me and my sister and both passed first time. He made sure i was fully prepared for my test gave me all the help i needed. Paul is everything you want in an instructor, im thankful i had an amazing experience with him. Thank you Paul.

If I ever get asked who I would recommend as a driving instructor my answer will always be Paul. Paul always arrived on time and covered everything I needed and wanted to know with the aim to past my test. I throughly enjoyed my lessons with Paul most of all because how comfortable I felt in his presence which built my confidence in driving massively. All of my lessons managed to fit my school schedule and work times, all due to Paul being so accommodating and finding time to 100% dedicate to his students. All of Paul’s qualities are what you want and need in a driving instructor.

I had an overall great experience with Paul he is so dedicated to helping you pass. I went through a phase were I didn’t want to learn anymore due to being involved in a crash and Paul helped me come back to my driving and has made me more confident bout the way I drive. We had a good laugh and I would do anything to go back to our Thursday lessons. Highly recommend for new drivers.

Paul was a very good instructor to learn with and he offered not only a comfortable environment but also really valuable advice towards driving which helped me pass my driving test. He made sure I was always comfortable with what we were doing and would always tell me what to work on if I made a mistake. I'd definitely recommend anyone who's learning to drive to go with Paul xx

First time pass, Paul was patient with me. He made learning a pleasure, just good fun and serious when he needed to be. Taught me great tricks and since passing I haven't had any issues or nerves.

I just can’t fault Paul he is an excellent driving instructor - genuinely cares about his clients, expert advisor, calm when needed, tailors the lessons to suit your needs and very fairly priced. I am extremely glad I chose him and would recommend no one else.
