A big thank you to Mark who gave me the confidence to get over the line and pass my driving test. Having been unsucessful a couple of times in the past Mark was my 3rd instructor and was calm, instructive and patient with me and I dont think I ever could have passed my test without him

If you are looking for a driving instructor, please look no further!!!
Mark is not only a driving instructor, he is a true teacher.
He is calm, knowledgeable and fully understands how our brain works when learning a new skill which is fundamental when learning to drive as you have a LOT of things to do at the same time while the big metal box is moving and there's other cars moving around you!
Mark was my second instructor. I had one in London and when I moved to Hitchin I tried two other instructors before I fully committed to one instructor, so I can really tell you he is by FAR the best one and I could not recommend him enough!
Thank you so much for everything Mark. You made driving a good experience for me and I know it would have been much harder if it wasn't for you.
ps- I passed my test first time with 2 minors. 😊

Mark was a brilliant instructor, calm easy going method of teaching making you feel completely at ease in the car, yet prompting you and telling you what to improve on all the time. Thanks to him, I managed to pass first time! Cannot recommend enough.

I didn't think I would ever be able to pass but Mark supported me to get there! Mark is professional, calming and easy to chat to. He adapts his teaching style and technique to suit you and the way you learn and helps you to feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. His ongoing patience and trust helped me get to the stage where I finally felt 'ready' to take my test.

Mark has been an excellent Instructor for my youngest child Izzy. He was always calm and gave her loads of information so she was able to improve and feel confident behind the wheel. His tips for parallel parking were fantastic and his communication with both Izzy and myself was great. Mark did at least two mock tests before her actual test so she knew what to expect and felt confident that she could pass...and she did. Would definitely recommend

Having first started learning to drive as a teenager in Staffordshire but failing a test shortly before moving to London, my confidence was severely knocked - so I only begun relearning at the age of 29, when my husband and I moved out to Hitchin. All I can say is that thankfully Mark was able to take me on. His calm, patient and clear-headed nature was exactly what I needed to allay my fears of numerous aspects of driving (namely, roundabouts!) and I really enjoyed our informal chats, to the point of feeling like we were mates as opposed to teacher and student. I genuinely could not have hoped for a better instructor and can’t recommend Mark enough. I passed today with flying colours and I’ll be going back to the Hitchin Driving School for some motorway driving lessons once I’m out on the road!
