Garrett C

5 star review. First lesson with Melanie she got straight to the point, told me all the "show-and-tell" questions and what an examiner marking sheet looks like - this removed a lot of last minute stress. Little things like turning the car off and on also helps with being comfortable while driving as it makes you not only ready for the test but a safe driver all together. By far the best instructor.

Courtney P

Totally recommend Melanie! Very polite, easy going, informative and punctual. Went above and beyond and was such a pleasure to learn from. She gave me so much confidence for my driving test.

Renata B

I'm extremely happy with her, she is professional, competent, polite, she knows exactly what to do to make me feel confident and relaxed.
I couldn't have had a better instructor, she knows exactly what she is doing and as a person she is amazing.
Thank you Melanie :)
Hope to see you soon xx

Billy W

I have had a few driving instructors over my time as a learner driver so far, however, Mel is most definitely the best that I have ever had! Mel is extremely supportive and caring and really takes the time to get to know her student’s personality and situation in life to maximise the ways she can benefit the knowledge and confidence of learners when driving. Mel is extremely professional And is always going above and beyond to ensure there is time in her schedule for your lessons! I would (and have) highly recommend Mel to absolutely any person who is looking for a driving instructor as I truly think she is the embodiment of what every driving instructor needs to strive to be. We need more instructors like Mel!

Isabella C

Melanie is a lovely and helpful instructor that always makes long drives feel comfortable and fun (while also very informative). She taught me general driving knowledge and how to complete manoeuvres. Never once did I feel anxious. Every lesson we had together was smooth and enjoyable. Additionally, Melanie made me feel less stressed about my drivers test and helped me calm myself by taking me through the test area and going over all of my possible flaws.

I would recommend her to anyone learning to drive and have recommended her some of my learner friends :)

Sarah C

Hello!!
I've had Melanie for a number of driving lesson, as well as my final driving exam!! She is the most wonderful driving teacher I've ever had! She creates a such a safe and comfortable environment; completely ideal for learning hehe.
She's was always so patient and encouraging, all while maintaining a fun learning space! There was never an air of pressure amongst her lessons and everything was always relaxed!!
On our first lesson she showed me the testing paper used to grade for the final exams, walked me through the entire sheet and ensured that I understood it all (which definitely made me more confident and comfortable about the final exam). All of our lessons were fun and relaxed; and Melanie has an extremely amazing way of teaching that made it easy to remember and recall different manoeuvres and tips!!
I really can't recommend Melanie enough for anyone who needs driving lessons!! Thank you so much for all of your help Melanie, I'm really glad that I was able to be taught by you!! And thank you for the confidence to pass my final exam!!!
