Jon has been a fantastic instructor from start to finish. He made every lesson an enjoyable experience whilst instilling life long driving skills, not just to pass the practical test. Having come from another instructor prior, the difference was night and day. Highly recommend and shall miss the Sunday morning lessons!

Well worth your time and money
Cannot emphasise how great an instructor Jon is! He was recommended to me by a friend and was the best switch I could've made. Jon ensures that you are not just test ready but that you're confident enough to drive on any road once you've passed. He informs, supports and encourages you to be the safest driver possible. He also makes you feel comfortable from your first lesson with him through to the very last. If you are looking for a great instructor, Jon is well worth your time and money.

Thank you Jon!

I passed my driving test on my first try with Jon as my instructor and I loved every minute of it. He taught me how to drive well while also made the lessons enjoyable so that I always had a good time and even if I made mistakes he would always give constructive criticism to help me avoid making the same mistakes again. I would recommend Jon to anybody looking to learn how to drive.

I can't recommend Jon enough! From the very first lesson, he makes you feel at ease and extremely comfortable not only behind the wheel but also with him in general. He has a calm and friendly demeanour that instantly relaxes you. Not only is he incredibly patient, but his teaching style will cater to you and how you learn and is clear and easy to understand. He takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and ensures that you understand the concepts before moving forward. His encouragement and positive feedback helps build confidence, and I always looked forward to our lessons. I truly appreciate how professional and kind he is—he made learning to drive a pleasant experience. If you're looking for a driving instructor who genuinely cares about you and your progress, he's the one!

Liv Mouhlen
Jon has been the best driving instructor! I was an extremely nervous driver to begin with but his patience and calming manner has given me the confidence to believe in myself and has led me to pass my driving test (something I never thought I'd say). He is reliable, trustworthy and makes you feel at ease in every lesson. I will miss our chats and lessons but I am so thankful for the skills Jon has taught me. A big thank you, would recommend to anyone!

Nick Headland
Jon is so easy to get on with friendly relaxed approach. He recently helped me get back on the road after a driving ban having to sit an extended test. I'd been driving for 30 years and had some faults to Iron out. Jon has given me the focus and skills to be safe on the road and I'm really pleased to have chosen him and would highly recommend. Thanks Jon.

Charlie Hancock
I couldn’t ask for a better instructor.
Jon is an easy person to get on with and makes you feel at ease during lessons. He’ll provide you with all the knowledge needed to pass the driving test and will never make you feel bad about any mistakes made whilst on the roads. He is always up for a conversation as he is a talkative person in general which provides an overall better experience during lessons. I couldn’t ask for a better instructor and would recommend him to anybody.

Sharon Cufflin
Passed 1st time!
Just wanted to share a huge thank you to Jon for being such a fantastic driving instructor for my son! From the very beginning, he was friendly, calm, and incredibly encouraging — exactly what a nervous new driver needs.

Jon has such patience and his positive approach made such a difference. It was so reassuring as a parent to know my child was in such capable and kind hands. My son not only passed his test first time but also gained real confidence on the road — and that’s down to the brilliant teaching and support from Jon I’d highly recommend Jon to anyone looking for a driving instructor who truly goes above and beyond. Thank you!

Passed 1st time!
Jon taught me and my older brother and we both passed first time !! I'm a really nervous person who doesn’t have a lot of confidence but Jon helped me to believe in myself and know that I can do it! He teaches in a quick but efficient way! Thank you so much - it was a pleasure having you as my teacher.

Elizabeth Richmond
Passed 1st time!
I have really enjoyed my lessons with Jon and would fully recommend him to any learner driver. He is very personable and accommodating which helped to calm my nerves with my upcoming test. He is extremely knowledgeable of the test routes and helps to prepare his students for any possible route/ scenario which may arise. He is also happy to take his time to go over any areas which you may be struggling with, taking care to make things as easy and simple as possible for you. I am extremely happy with the service Jon has provided and I know I would not have passed first time if I had gone with any other instructor! I cannot recommend him enough!

Catrin King
Passed with no faults
My son has really enjoyed having lessons with Jon and has recently passed his driving test with no faults. Jon has also been supportive in giving us advice in taking Dan driving and recommended suitable areas to practice. My son enjoyed the calm and relaxed lessons and in the run up to his tests he had a run of mock tests which he enjoyed. He did the reverse run of his test the day before which helped.
