(Victoria Langley 25/03/23)
Tom was brilliant from the get go. He had the ability to connect straight away with my son and made him feel at ease and boosted his confidence after it had been knocked by a previous instructor. Fantastic manner and really passionate about his job and wanting to see his students do their best. I would highly recommend Tom's Driving School and have already to others. He will certainly teach my daughter once she reaches 17 later this year.

Thank you Tom. You are a patient and encouraging instructor. I am a driver with 1 years driving experience and Tom corrected my bad driving habits and taught me the techniques for handling the UK driving test in a very short period of time (9 lessons). I highly recommend Tom.
(Alex Choi 04/02/23)
Fully recommend Tom, a great instructor. Passed first time with him. Great person to get along with, couldn't recommend higher. Doesn't long out lessons, he knows when you're ready for the test and is great at giving advice and giving pointers to help with your driving and test. Top bloke!
(Tobias Geddes 30/01/23)

Thank you Tom from teaching me from 0% to 100%. I couldn't have done it without you. You are a really great instructor who is professional, patient and positive. Though I made so many mistakes at my early stage of driving, you encouraged me a lot and gave me very good guidance and advice. Thanks a million again for teaching me how to be a safe and responsible driver on the road. I will definitely recommend you (actually have done already) to anyone who needs a professional driving instructor. Five star learning experience. Cheers!

(Gerry Gallott 14/12/22)
Tom is a fantastic instructor. He kept me at ease. I would 100% recommend him.
(Catherine Osorio 18/11/22)
Due to the pandemic, I had to take a break from learning to drive plus my previous driving lessons (with a different company) left me with zero confidence and doubting my abilities. Tom took into account my learning difficulties. He was also understanding of my low confidence and he helped refine my techniques. He built up the confidence and did it all in a manner that even on a bad day, he turned it into a lesson on reflection, talking to me in a way that I didn't feel belittled or undermined. Thanks to Tom's help, I was able to pass my driving test today. I can highly recommend him.
(Bob Williams-Vazquez 03/11/22)
Tom recently taught my daughter to drive. He was patient, punctual, always happy and a pleasure to deal with. Can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you Tom!
(Kirsty Hewett 02/11/22)
Tom has made me become a confident driver and I would highly recommend him! He always made sure he fit me in and didn't leave a massive gap between lessons. Couldn't have passed without him.
(Morgan Rutherford 31/10/22)
Tom got me driving again after nearly ten years. I passed my test a long time ago but stopped and then lost all confidence. Tom was patient, kind and supportive. With Tom's lessons, I went from barely being able to drive around the block to confidently driving long distances on motorways; which I didn't think I'd be able to do. I'd highly recommend Tom for those in need of refresher lessons. He is non-judgmental and will go at your pace while making sure every lesson you make a bit more progress.
(Helen Watts 29/10/22)
Such an amazing experience to learn to drive with Tom. I am deaf and he did an amazing job to adjust to ensure that I understood throughout until I had passed my test first time! Thank you so much Tom! Really appreciate it! You are a star! Whoever wants to learn automatic I highly recommend it!
(Dannica Trendell 28/10/22)
The best! Tom taught my son to drive and I would HIGHLY recommend. Always on time, friendly and made sure Thomas fully understood everything that was shown to him. Thank you so much Tom, one happy 17 year old!
(Laura Price 25/10/22)
THE BEST YOU'LL EVER GET! Passed first time with Tom at Peachman Way! Couldn't recommend Tom enough! Friendly, motivated with great teaching skills. Thank you so much Tom.
(Jessica Le Roy 25/10/22)
Really recommend Tom! I struggled to get through my driving tests with other instructors. After failing a fair few times, I lacked confidence and was a very nervous driver. Tom was the one that finally got my confidence back after a couple of months of lessons and I passed first time! Can't thank him enough!
(Julia Brett 13/10/22)
Definitely recommend! There is no way I could have made it without you Tom! I was so lucky to have you as my instructor, very professional and patient, very understanding as well. I have never been a confident person, thank you for keeping encouraging me. Again, highly recommend!
(Grace Hu 06/10/22)
I would 100% recommend Tom to anyone that's looking for themselves or their children to get them on the road. The nerves leave you as soon as you get in the car, feel relaxed and just all round makes the driving experience enjoyable. Tom has unlimited patience and was informative and very approachable when I struggled with a manoeuvre. Tom was very professional but made me feel so relaxed and comfortable, it was like driving with a friend. Can't recommend him highly enough! Thank you so much Tom! We done it buddy!
(Chanise Harris 30/9/22)
Highly recommend. My daughter passed with only 2 minors. He is always on time. Very professional and responsible.
(Idalina Abreu 15/08/22)
Amazing. Super patient and straightforward. Thank you.
(Jessica Abreu 15/08/22)
I have recently passed my test with Tom. After set backs with lockdown, Covid and personal reasons, I have found it hard starting back up but Tom gave me advice and encouraged me that I could do it. He always made sure that his lessons were fun, relaxed and fulfilling of techniques that helped me in my test. I was probably one of Tom's most anxious and less confident people he has had to teach but he was always relaxed, very patient and has always given me a confidence boost that I needed. Tom always went out of his way to make sure I fully understood what he was saying and whenever I struggled he always found another way to teach me so that I understood. I high recommend Tom's Driving School. 5 star. Thank you.
(Laura Ryder 10/08/22)
Definitely recommend Tom. He made me believe in myself and gave me the confidence I needed. Thank you so much Tom! This has changed my life so much!
(Kerry Place 10/08/22)
My son just passed his test with Tom. Started learning just before Covid hit so has been difficult with cancellations and stopping and starting but Tom has been fantastic throughout. Thank you Tom.
(Julie White 19/06/22)
I was new to driving in th UK and Tom helped me feel comfortable and confident about my driving. He is a very friendly and gentle instructor that teaches you what to do in a very polite manner. With his help I felt very secure driving in the left lane and learnt how to abide by UK rules in a few practice hours. Thank you once again Tom!
(Nasmille Larke-Mejia 04/06/22)
Definitely would recommend! Tom is a really cool instructor and amazing teacher. Very approachable, patient and honest. Very reliable with great communication. Thanks again Tom!
(Pamela Otrzonsek 06/05/22)
I have had lessons on and off for years but I was very nervous driver, and thought I would need hours and hours of lessons but Tom helped me pass with as few lessons as possible and helped boost my Confidence, so much so that 3 weeks after passing my test I drove alone all the way to Devon and back!!! something I never thought I would be able to do.
(Lauren Haze 14/04/22)
Thanks Tom for helping me pass! First time with one minor! Tom is honest and reliable and well priced and very professional! highly recommended. Thanks Tom
(Gemma Smith 13/04/22)
Excellent friendly and calm tuition. Will relax the most nervous of learners and my daughter passed first time. Great job Tom, thanks.
(Tracy Moulton 31/03/22)
Tom is such a patient driving instructor. He doesn’t make you feel bad about getting things wrong but instead helps you until you get it right. Such a lovely instructor and he helped me pass my driving test the first time so I definitely recommend him!
(Joy Dairo 31/03/22)
I wanted to say a special thank you to Tom’s Driving School. I never expected to drive a car let alone pass roughly a year ago. I was very nervous and anxious at first, but Tom never let that phase him. Tom always encouraged me and made me so much more confident. I would highly recommend Tom, he was always patient, positive and most importantly a good driving instructor. Thank you Tom, wish you all the best for the future! I might see you about when I’m driving.
(Jem Lou 09/03/22)
Tom is very patient and helped my son pass. After all the mucking about due to covid my sons confidence had been knocked a bit but thanks to Tom he got a good pass this morning very pleased thank you so much Tom.
(Vikki Allen 01/03/22)
Patient and friendly instructor. Tom wasn't my first instructor, but he is the one who helped me pass my driving test. I highly recommend him to everyone!
(Rozalia Nagy 25/02/22)
I couldn’t recommend a better driving instructor. Tom is professional, patient and supportive. Since day one Tom has kept me motivated and determined with learning.
Definitely reach out to Tom if you are looking to learn how to drive.
Cheers Tom
(Nathan Thomas 23/02/22)
What can I say about Tom… absolutely BRILLIANT! I was a little nervous after not having lessons for a few years but he put me at ease right away, believed in my ability and taught me how to drive, safely! Teaching methods are spot on, if I made any errors he would calmly go through them with me and tell me what I’d done and we would discuss it. He never once belittled me or raised his voice (something I had before with previous instructors) and always explained everything clearly and in a way I understood it. He would always ask if there was anything in particular I felt I needed to go over or practice and made me feel confident and ready for test. Would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn to drive, absolutely fantastic instructor, lovely car always immaculate and felt nice to drive and an all round top man! Thanks so much Tom!
(Alix Shaw 11/02/22)
After using a few different instructors, Tom was the best by far. Easy to communicate with and goes out of his way to help out in any way possible. 5*.
(Beulah Ramsbotham 11/02/22)
Tom is a good teacher. He is so patient. He gives you the right answers to your questions. Thank you so much for your support.
(Joy Pepple 10/02/22)
Huge thank you Tom for helping me gain my confidence in driving! After many instructors Tom made me feel at ease straight away and took the stress away from driving 100% recommended instructor!
(Jes Leeder 28/01/22)
Tom is a friendly, experienced and very knowledgeable instructor. Because of his help and guidance I could able to pass my driving test easily I would like to say a big thank you to him!
(Rad 28/01/22)
I had never imagined ever learning to drive. Tom was extremely patient and helpful. Highly recommended. Extremely pleased to have passed (first time).
(Steve Marsden 18/01/22)
I JUST passed my British driving test which I must admit was in large part to my driving instructor, Tom of Tom’s Driving School. Even though I’ve been driving in the USA, there is no comparison and I felt I really needed driving lessons to ensure I was familiar with the road signs and maneuvering the roundabouts comfortably and safely. Tom was patient, calm and guided me through the entire process. Another thing I particularly appreciated was his professionalism. Tom was reachable and got back to me in a timely manner. He has a friendly easy style and we had some good conversations I will miss. He is a good teacher and I would highly recommend his services.
(Jann Flantinger 18/01/22)
For someone like me who had anxiety, Tom was very chill and easy to learn with, I was very comfortable throughout my lessons and it helped me a lot, I would defo go learn with him if I were you and I guarantee, you don’t regret it.
(Ylin Derri 13/01/22)
Couldn’t recommend enough, passed my driving test this morning after only a few lessons! very patient, reassuring and couldn’t wish for a better instructor. Thank you!!!

(Kayleigh Mayne 05/12/21)
Tom is a great driving instructor. Makes you feel comfortable and friendly. Teaches really well and got me to pass first time! Would definitely recommend.
(Leighonne Hall 25/11/21)
Cannot recommend Tom enough. I booked in with Tom for refresher lessons after losing my confidence, and not driving for a few years. I was anxious and nervous and Tom put me at ease straight away. We talked through what I wanted to do, he explained things over, not once did he ever make me feel silly for the things my anxiety made me think. We had a laugh and he boosted my confidence more than I can explain. If anyone is in need of refresher lessons or are starting out on their driving journey then I would highly recommend Tom.
(Emma James 30/09/21)
Quality driving instructor and really good guy. I highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to get through their test with no stress!
(Damon Charles 24/09/21)
5 instructor! I had lessons for a few weeks with Tom to polish my skills for the exam. His instructions and teaching style is easy to understand and follow. I felt instantly at ease and gained more and more confidence with each lesson. Now I'm a week old driver passed first time! Couldn't do it without you Tom, thank you very much!
(Beata Balla 05/08/21)
Tom pulled my confidence out of the gutter and made it 10 ft tall. I would highly recommend him. i passed first time thanks to his clear instructions and faith in me.
Thank you Tom.
Top bloke and smashing instructor.
(Jenna Louise 15/07/21)
Tom was an absolute brilliant instructor for my daughter, she was very nervous but his calm, reassuring attitude soon gave her confidence and she passed first time ! It was something she never dreamed possible and totally down to Toms teaching!
(Paula Filby 15/07/21)
Tom is a fantastic instructor, I was struggling with really bad driving anxiety I thought I would never be driving - but after 30 mins of a lesson I felt completely at ease.
And I have now passed my test, I honestly couldn't have done it without Tom's guidance and help.
(Katie Quantrill 15/07/21)
Amazing instructor, very informative very easy to talk to. I passed first time, I would highly recommend. 10/10!!!
(Nivson Guedes 06/07/21)
Would highly recommend Tom. Friendly, patient and made me feel relaxed the whole time and on the test day itself. With Tom you definitely can't go wrong.
(Michelle Allen 16/06/21)
Couldn't have asked for a friendlier or more trustworthy instructor who sat with me and gave me a few tips before my test as sadly my instructor couldn't take me. Despite Tom being a auto instructor, he took me on and passed me with 4 minors which I am very pleased with. Couldn't recommend him enough he is brilliant.
(Emma Luck 15/06/21)
Excellent instructions, boosting confidence and punctual.
(Kishore Raju 02/06/21)
Tom was extremely flexible and fit lessons in for us at very short notice after I had contacted over 10 different driving schools who all said there was a few months waiting list! Tom was very chatty and easy to get on with. His teaching style was clear and he was very accommodating with pick ups and drop offs. We were recommended him and I would also recommend him to others! Thanks Tom.
(Maddie Louise 05/05/21)
Words can’t even describe how much I want to thank Tom right now. He is soo easy to get on with. He always gives a constructive feedback and believes in me even when I had doubts. He helped me gained confidence and to better my driving. He didn’t give up on me even though I failed my previous test. He encouraged and kept pushing and always informed me of any changes. Thank you Tom for the amazing Christmas gift. Have a lovely one too. I will definitely recommend and bring people along your way always.
(Suzy Brown 22/12/20)
Tom is so easy to get along with, he really puts you at ease, I felt like I knew him for ages! He gave me confidence, he let me take a test only after 5 hours of lessons, unfortunately I failed due to a silly mistake but I went again today only 2 months later with only 4 more hours and I passed with only 1 minor! I knew I wanted to take my test quickly and most instructors would tell you no! However Tom believed in me and gave me a chance and thankfully it paid of quicker than I had expected! He went above and beyond, I can’t thank him enough. I had a really rubbish year last year and this has absolutely topped this year off! Tom worked late evenings to fit me in and both tests were last minute yet he still managed to move things around to make the test happen!
(Lisa Wastell 04/12/2020)
I was looking for someone to help me with a few refresher lessons as hadn't driven for 10 years. Tom was recommended and I am so glad I chose to contact him. Right from the start Tom put me at ease, he is a really nice, easy going guy and soon gave me the confidence I lacked. Thanks Tom for getting me back behind the wheel again. I will definitely recommend you to anyone wanting lessons.
(Karina Lynn 08/11/2020)
I have had about 15 instructors and Tom is brilliant. Really laid back but totally on point. Can’t rate him highly enough. It’s finally clicked with just a few lessons.
(Cari Cooke 05/10/2020)
Highly recommend! I needed a few lessons as I failed my first test, and needed someone to go over things with- he helped me when I was 2 weeks away from my second driving test! Helped me to stay calm and think things through, and even helped me learn in my own car! :)) Passed second time! Thanks Tom!
(Lauryn Neil 26/09/2020)
I stopped driving 13 years ago. I couldn't have got my confidence back to drive again without Tom's help. He is patient, professional and friendly, you can't go wrong learning with him. would recommend him 100%
(Jesse Pierre 02/09/2020)
Tom you are an excellent driving instructor. You are calm, patient, knowledgeable, flexible and a good humoured teacher. What's more, is that you made me feel relaxed when driving. Thanks for teaching me everything, you are the reason I passed my test first time. I was so lucky to have you as my instructor.

(Declan Mason 23/09/2019)
It’s been an absolute pleasure having driving lessons with Tom. He is always so calm, informative and encouraging. I learnt so much during my lessons with him as he always pushed me to reach my full potential. He genuinely cares about progress and getting good results at the end of every lesson. Not only did he teach me valuable skills on the road, Tom also explained road signs and a lot of the theory throughout which made lessons even more valuable. Such a great driving instructor – would 100% recommend.

He built up the confidence and did it all in a manner that even on a bad day, he turned it into a lesson on reflection, talking to me in a way that I didn't feel belittled or undermined. Thanks to Tom's help, I was able to pass my driving test today. I can highly recommend him.

Tom recently taught my daughter to drive. He was patient, punctual, always happy and a pleasure to deal with. Can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you Tom!
(Kirsty Hewett 02/11/22)
Tom has made me become a confident driver and I would highly recommend him! He always made sure he fit me in and didn't leave a massive gap between lessons. Couldn't have passed without him.
(Morgan Rutherford 31/10/22)
Tom got me driving again after nearly ten years. I passed my test a long time ago but stopped and then lost all confidence. Tom was patient, kind and supportive. With Tom's lessons, I went from barely being able to drive around the block to confidently driving long distances on motorways; which I didn't think I'd be able to do. I'd highly recommend Tom for those in need of refresher lessons. He is non-judgmental and will go at your pace while making sure every lesson you make a bit more progress.

Such an amazing experience to learn to drive with Tom. I am deaf and he did an amazing job to adjust to ensure that I understood throughout until I had passed my test first time! Thank you so much Tom! Really appreciate it! You are a star! Whoever wants to learn automatic I highly recommend it!
(Dannica Trendell 28/10/22)
The best! Tom taught my son to drive and I would HIGHLY recommend. Always on time, friendly and made sure Thomas fully understood everything that was shown to him. Thank you so much Tom, one happy 17 year old!
(Laura Price 25/10/22)
THE BEST YOU'LL EVER GET! Passed first time with Tom at Peachman Way! Couldn't recommend Tom enough! Friendly, motivated with great teaching skills. Thank you so much Tom.
(Jessica Le Roy 25/10/22)
Really recommend Tom! I struggled to get through my driving tests with other instructors. After failing a fair few times, I lacked confidence and was a very nervous driver. Tom was the one that finally got my confidence back after a couple of months of lessons and I passed first time! Can't thank him enough!
(Julia Brett 13/10/22)
Definitely recommend! There is no way I could have made it without you Tom! I was so lucky to have you as my instructor, very professional and patient, very understanding as well. I have never been a confident person, thank you for keeping encouraging me. Again, highly recommend!
(Grace Hu 06/10/22)
I would 100% recommend Tom to anyone that's looking for themselves or their children to get them on the road. The nerves leave you as soon as you get in the car, feel relaxed and just all round makes the driving experience enjoyable. Tom has unlimited patience and was informative and very approachable when I struggled with a manoeuvre. Tom was very professional but made me feel so relaxed and comfortable, it was like driving with a friend. Can't recommend him highly enough! Thank you so much Tom! We done it buddy!
(Chanise Harris 30/9/22)
Highly recommend. My daughter passed with only 2 minors. He is always on time. Very professional and responsible.
(Idalina Abreu 15/08/22)
Amazing. Super patient and straightforward. Thank you.
(Jessica Abreu 15/08/22)
I have recently passed my test with Tom. After set backs with lockdown, Covid and personal reasons, I have found it hard starting back up but Tom gave me advice and encouraged me that I could do it. He always made sure that his lessons were fun, relaxed and fulfilling of techniques that helped me in my test. I was probably one of Tom's most anxious and less confident people he has had to teach but he was always relaxed, very patient and has always given me a confidence boost that I needed. Tom always went out of his way to make sure I fully understood what he was saying and whenever I struggled he always found another way to teach me so that I understood. I high recommend Tom's Driving School. 5 star. Thank you.
(Laura Ryder 10/08/22)
Definitely recommend Tom. He made me believe in myself and gave me the confidence I needed. Thank you so much Tom! This has changed my life so much!
(Kerry Place 10/08/22)
My son just passed his test with Tom. Started learning just before Covid hit so has been difficult with cancellations and stopping and starting but Tom has been fantastic throughout. Thank you Tom.
(Julie White 19/06/22)
I was new to driving in th UK and Tom helped me feel comfortable and confident about my driving. He is a very friendly and gentle instructor that teaches you what to do in a very polite manner. With his help I felt very secure driving in the left lane and learnt how to abide by UK rules in a few practice hours. Thank you once again Tom!
(Nasmille Larke-Mejia 04/06/22)
Definitely would recommend! Tom is a really cool instructor and amazing teacher. Very approachable, patient and honest. Very reliable with great communication. Thanks again Tom!
(Pamela Otrzonsek 06/05/22)
I have had lessons on and off for years but I was very nervous driver, and thought I would need hours and hours of lessons but Tom helped me pass with as few lessons as possible and helped boost my Confidence, so much so that 3 weeks after passing my test I drove alone all the way to Devon and back!!! something I never thought I would be able to do.
(Lauren Haze 14/04/22)
Thanks Tom for helping me pass! First time with one minor! Tom is honest and reliable and well priced and very professional! highly recommended. Thanks Tom
(Gemma Smith 13/04/22)
Excellent friendly and calm tuition. Will relax the most nervous of learners and my daughter passed first time. Great job Tom, thanks.
(Tracy Moulton 31/03/22)
Tom is such a patient driving instructor. He doesn’t make you feel bad about getting things wrong but instead helps you until you get it right. Such a lovely instructor and he helped me pass my driving test the first time so I definitely recommend him!
(Joy Dairo 31/03/22)
I wanted to say a special thank you to Tom’s Driving School. I never expected to drive a car let alone pass roughly a year ago. I was very nervous and anxious at first, but Tom never let that phase him. Tom always encouraged me and made me so much more confident. I would highly recommend Tom, he was always patient, positive and most importantly a good driving instructor. Thank you Tom, wish you all the best for the future! I might see you about when I’m driving.
(Jem Lou 09/03/22)
Tom is very patient and helped my son pass. After all the mucking about due to covid my sons confidence had been knocked a bit but thanks to Tom he got a good pass this morning very pleased thank you so much Tom.
(Vikki Allen 01/03/22)
Patient and friendly instructor. Tom wasn't my first instructor, but he is the one who helped me pass my driving test. I highly recommend him to everyone!
(Rozalia Nagy 25/02/22)
I couldn’t recommend a better driving instructor. Tom is professional, patient and supportive. Since day one Tom has kept me motivated and determined with learning.
Definitely reach out to Tom if you are looking to learn how to drive.
Cheers Tom
(Nathan Thomas 23/02/22)
What can I say about Tom… absolutely BRILLIANT! I was a little nervous after not having lessons for a few years but he put me at ease right away, believed in my ability and taught me how to drive, safely! Teaching methods are spot on, if I made any errors he would calmly go through them with me and tell me what I’d done and we would discuss it. He never once belittled me or raised his voice (something I had before with previous instructors) and always explained everything clearly and in a way I understood it. He would always ask if there was anything in particular I felt I needed to go over or practice and made me feel confident and ready for test. Would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn to drive, absolutely fantastic instructor, lovely car always immaculate and felt nice to drive and an all round top man! Thanks so much Tom!
(Alix Shaw 11/02/22)
After using a few different instructors, Tom was the best by far. Easy to communicate with and goes out of his way to help out in any way possible. 5*.
(Beulah Ramsbotham 11/02/22)
Tom is a good teacher. He is so patient. He gives you the right answers to your questions. Thank you so much for your support.
(Joy Pepple 10/02/22)
Huge thank you Tom for helping me gain my confidence in driving! After many instructors Tom made me feel at ease straight away and took the stress away from driving 100% recommended instructor!
(Jes Leeder 28/01/22)
Tom is a friendly, experienced and very knowledgeable instructor. Because of his help and guidance I could able to pass my driving test easily I would like to say a big thank you to him!
(Rad 28/01/22)
I had never imagined ever learning to drive. Tom was extremely patient and helpful. Highly recommended. Extremely pleased to have passed (first time).
(Steve Marsden 18/01/22)
I JUST passed my British driving test which I must admit was in large part to my driving instructor, Tom of Tom’s Driving School. Even though I’ve been driving in the USA, there is no comparison and I felt I really needed driving lessons to ensure I was familiar with the road signs and maneuvering the roundabouts comfortably and safely. Tom was patient, calm and guided me through the entire process. Another thing I particularly appreciated was his professionalism. Tom was reachable and got back to me in a timely manner. He has a friendly easy style and we had some good conversations I will miss. He is a good teacher and I would highly recommend his services.
(Jann Flantinger 18/01/22)
For someone like me who had anxiety, Tom was very chill and easy to learn with, I was very comfortable throughout my lessons and it helped me a lot, I would defo go learn with him if I were you and I guarantee, you don’t regret it.
(Ylin Derri 13/01/22)
Couldn’t recommend enough, passed my driving test this morning after only a few lessons! very patient, reassuring and couldn’t wish for a better instructor. Thank you!!!

Tom is so patient and a great teacher. He really encourages me to push myself and reminds me I can do it. Highly recommend
(Kayleigh Mayne 05/12/21)
Tom is a great driving instructor. Makes you feel comfortable and friendly. Teaches really well and got me to pass first time! Would definitely recommend.
(Leighonne Hall 25/11/21)
Cannot recommend Tom enough. I booked in with Tom for refresher lessons after losing my confidence, and not driving for a few years. I was anxious and nervous and Tom put me at ease straight away. We talked through what I wanted to do, he explained things over, not once did he ever make me feel silly for the things my anxiety made me think. We had a laugh and he boosted my confidence more than I can explain. If anyone is in need of refresher lessons or are starting out on their driving journey then I would highly recommend Tom.
(Emma James 30/09/21)
Quality driving instructor and really good guy. I highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to get through their test with no stress!
(Damon Charles 24/09/21)
5 instructor! I had lessons for a few weeks with Tom to polish my skills for the exam. His instructions and teaching style is easy to understand and follow. I felt instantly at ease and gained more and more confidence with each lesson. Now I'm a week old driver passed first time! Couldn't do it without you Tom, thank you very much!
(Beata Balla 05/08/21)
Tom pulled my confidence out of the gutter and made it 10 ft tall. I would highly recommend him. i passed first time thanks to his clear instructions and faith in me.
Thank you Tom.
Top bloke and smashing instructor.
(Jenna Louise 15/07/21)
Tom was an absolute brilliant instructor for my daughter, she was very nervous but his calm, reassuring attitude soon gave her confidence and she passed first time ! It was something she never dreamed possible and totally down to Toms teaching!
(Paula Filby 15/07/21)
Tom is a fantastic instructor, I was struggling with really bad driving anxiety I thought I would never be driving - but after 30 mins of a lesson I felt completely at ease.
And I have now passed my test, I honestly couldn't have done it without Tom's guidance and help.
(Katie Quantrill 15/07/21)
Amazing instructor, very informative very easy to talk to. I passed first time, I would highly recommend. 10/10!!!
(Nivson Guedes 06/07/21)
Would highly recommend Tom. Friendly, patient and made me feel relaxed the whole time and on the test day itself. With Tom you definitely can't go wrong.
(Michelle Allen 16/06/21)
Couldn't have asked for a friendlier or more trustworthy instructor who sat with me and gave me a few tips before my test as sadly my instructor couldn't take me. Despite Tom being a auto instructor, he took me on and passed me with 4 minors which I am very pleased with. Couldn't recommend him enough he is brilliant.
(Emma Luck 15/06/21)
Excellent instructions, boosting confidence and punctual.
(Kishore Raju 02/06/21)
Tom was extremely flexible and fit lessons in for us at very short notice after I had contacted over 10 different driving schools who all said there was a few months waiting list! Tom was very chatty and easy to get on with. His teaching style was clear and he was very accommodating with pick ups and drop offs. We were recommended him and I would also recommend him to others! Thanks Tom.
(Maddie Louise 05/05/21)
Words can’t even describe how much I want to thank Tom right now. He is soo easy to get on with. He always gives a constructive feedback and believes in me even when I had doubts. He helped me gained confidence and to better my driving. He didn’t give up on me even though I failed my previous test. He encouraged and kept pushing and always informed me of any changes. Thank you Tom for the amazing Christmas gift. Have a lovely one too. I will definitely recommend and bring people along your way always.
(Suzy Brown 22/12/20)
Tom is so easy to get along with, he really puts you at ease, I felt like I knew him for ages! He gave me confidence, he let me take a test only after 5 hours of lessons, unfortunately I failed due to a silly mistake but I went again today only 2 months later with only 4 more hours and I passed with only 1 minor! I knew I wanted to take my test quickly and most instructors would tell you no! However Tom believed in me and gave me a chance and thankfully it paid of quicker than I had expected! He went above and beyond, I can’t thank him enough. I had a really rubbish year last year and this has absolutely topped this year off! Tom worked late evenings to fit me in and both tests were last minute yet he still managed to move things around to make the test happen!
(Lisa Wastell 04/12/2020)
I was looking for someone to help me with a few refresher lessons as hadn't driven for 10 years. Tom was recommended and I am so glad I chose to contact him. Right from the start Tom put me at ease, he is a really nice, easy going guy and soon gave me the confidence I lacked. Thanks Tom for getting me back behind the wheel again. I will definitely recommend you to anyone wanting lessons.
(Karina Lynn 08/11/2020)
I have had about 15 instructors and Tom is brilliant. Really laid back but totally on point. Can’t rate him highly enough. It’s finally clicked with just a few lessons.
(Cari Cooke 05/10/2020)
Highly recommend! I needed a few lessons as I failed my first test, and needed someone to go over things with- he helped me when I was 2 weeks away from my second driving test! Helped me to stay calm and think things through, and even helped me learn in my own car! :)) Passed second time! Thanks Tom!
(Lauryn Neil 26/09/2020)
I stopped driving 13 years ago. I couldn't have got my confidence back to drive again without Tom's help. He is patient, professional and friendly, you can't go wrong learning with him. would recommend him 100%
(Jesse Pierre 02/09/2020)
Tom you are an excellent driving instructor. You are calm, patient, knowledgeable, flexible and a good humoured teacher. What's more, is that you made me feel relaxed when driving. Thanks for teaching me everything, you are the reason I passed my test first time. I was so lucky to have you as my instructor.

(Declan Mason 23/09/2019)
It’s been an absolute pleasure having driving lessons with Tom. He is always so calm, informative and encouraging. I learnt so much during my lessons with him as he always pushed me to reach my full potential. He genuinely cares about progress and getting good results at the end of every lesson. Not only did he teach me valuable skills on the road, Tom also explained road signs and a lot of the theory throughout which made lessons even more valuable. Such a great driving instructor – would 100% recommend.
