I began driving with Phil in February after having a couple months driving with a previous instructor at the end of last year. I immediately found Phil’s teaching technique easy to understand and follow. I felt comfortable and confident in the car and began to enjoy driving a whole lot more!! My mum was friends with Phil previously which is how i found out about his driving school, (later i found a bunch of other people i knew had learnt to drive with him) He made me understand how and why things work in a car which allowed me to actually know what was actually going on when i was driving. He is friendly and is always able to answer any questions i had (however stupid they were!), i would defiantly recommend Phil to other people & will be doing!! I don’t think i would have passed so quick without him!

Learning to drive with Phil has been brilliant! He’s a great teacher and we had a lot of good laughs! He also focuses lessons on what you need to improve to get you ready for your test; and if you haven’t done your theory, get it booked because he’ll keep asking until you do 😄 the handouts and lesson overviews given after each lesson help you to know what you’ve done well and what to improve. All in all I couldn’t have picked a better instructor, thank you so much Phil!!

"If you are looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic instructor then 100% Phil’s the man. Phil is reliable and always on time, your lesson will not be a boring one with Phil’s sense of humour and rubbish jokes:) He will ensure you keep on top of theory prep and won’t give up until you’ve passed it, this continues with your practical. Other instructors can be prone to drag out lessons but will draw you in with cheap prices however not Phil; paying that little bit more is well worth it and each lesson is productive and actually planned out. Phil will also take time to send over handouts and feedback from your lesson which is so helpful to identify what you need to improve on. Thanks Phil for everything! I’ll be back soon to have a motorway lesson :))"

"Learning to drive with Phil couldn’t have been a better choice, he also taught my sister and we would both recommend him without a doubt. Throughout the time I was learning to drive from my first lesson until my last Phil kept me motivated. He didn’t just teach me to drive, he made his lessons fun and entertaining and showed he cares more than just an instructor would. Phil is easy to get on with which makes you feel at ease from the beginning, I enjoyed every single lesson and looked forward to getting back in the car the week after. After every lesson Phil sends a lesson briefing, explaining what I did well and what I needed too look at for my next lesson. Phil can only be one of the best around, I can not recommend him enough!"

Learning to drive has been such a fun and memorable journey. It feels like yesterday since started my lessons in August, and even though I have never driven a car before I felt totally safe as Phil´s teaching methods are not over complicated which really helped me.

He never once panicked or raised his voice, and was always very positive and supportive while driving which helped my confidence grow faster. The lesson briefings that he sends after each lesson really helped me as he tells you what went well, what you need to practice on before the next lesson, and the plan for the next lesson. This helped me massively as I could go out and practice in my own car on the things I needed to practice. I don´t know any other instructor that does a lesson briefing and I think it shows how much Phil is passionate and dedicated about getting you to pass. The lessons themselves went really fast because time does fly when you´re having fun, and there was the right balance of learning and laughter (even though his jokes where terrible😂).

When I was doing my theory I found that his app really helped as he could monitor my progress and tell me what areas I really needed to focus on. A week before my theory test we had a lesson just on the theory which helped as I could ask all the questions I was struggling on and understand the answer rather than guess it... a week later I passed my theory first time. I really do consider Phil a friend and miss our lessons. After I failed my first test he didn´t let me give up or make me feel bad in anyway, he said I just needed to get back up go again, this positive outlook meant that less than two weeks later I had passed my test. I recommend Phil to everyone, and all really does give you 100% of his focus in the car. I can´t thank Phil enough for everything, he really is the best instructor and don´t think he truly knows how good he is.
