Passed today after training with Andy Brown. Would fully recommend him to anyone, especially because of the way he looked at each problem individually and coached me through them. Just two minors in the end, cheers Andy.

Martin Lewis taught me to drive. Martin not only taught me to drive but gave me confidence in doing so. I haven't been the easiest of pupils but he always had patience with me which is something that can be hard to find. What he's taught me has done more than just teach me to pass a test cause the knowledge applies to every day driving.

After years of procrastination, I (rather nervously!)started driving lessons last year and I haven't looked back. Thanks to Robbie's continual encouragement and support, my confidence grew and I passed my test last week. Being able to drive has already changed my life and I would recommend Robbie as a teacher to anyone!
Thank you Robbie for all your help and positivity!

Am very excited to pass my test today first time and I would like to thank Peter Blight for helping me in achieving this. Peter rightly identified my weekness and helped throughout in correcting those mistakes. I wouldn't have passed the test first time without Peter's effort.

I'd certainly recommed Peter to any new learners.

I would just like to thank Mike Sutton for helping me achieve my licence. Without him I would not have been able to take my test and feel prepared for it. Mikes calm nature allowed for my nerves not to take over and I passed first time. He managed to achieve the impossible of gaining me a licence within a set period of time from someone who fully admits they knew nothing about driving when they began. I cannot express my gratitude strongly enough. Thanks again Mike.

I would like to say a big thank you to the Big Red L and more especially my instructor Andy Brown who helped me get my driving licence. I really had a good time and always looked forward to my lessons. Big up Andy - I'm happy for the learners who are yet to go under your supervision. You are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Things are now clicking in to place and with the help and patience of Robbie Wilde I can finally see the practical test in the near future. Thanks Robbie for your patience as I know how frustrating I can be. Without this continued support I may well have given up by now, but now truly believe I can drive and will pass. You are a star Robbie. Thanks a very grateful Lisa

I am over the moon as I have just passed my test with only 4 faults thanks to my instructer Robbie Wilde. It was a real challenge as I am due to have twins in a weeks time but under Robbies expert tuition I managed to succeed, even with a huge bump!! The lessons with Robbie were always enjoyable and productive and he managed to maintain my spirits even through times of frustration. I would highly recommend him as an instructor to any potential student. Thanks again Robbie!!

I PASSED FIRST TIME TODAY WITH 12 MINORS!!!! :)

A big thanks to Mike Sutton who persisted in pushing me to perform to my best ability!

A very patient instructor who takes note of your personality and charisma (...even when frustration kicks in!!!) to coach and instruct you in the best way possible. He consistently reassessed his own instructing methods whilst simultaneously assessing your progression in order to take you step by step on the road towards being a qualified driver.

Thanks again Mike :D

Highly recommended!

Since I have been learning with Martin Lewis I feel so much more confident
in myself in regards to working towards passing my test, and driving afterwards as
a confident and able driver. I always enjoy my lessons as it's in a relaxing, supportive
atmosphere; I would recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly yet proffessional
driving instructor.

Mike sutton made it possible for me to pass my driving test first time, i felt my previous instrutor made me feel like i wasnt good enough to pass but Mike made it all possible. passing first time was a great feeling and, only a few months with Mike i gained vast experience. i would advise anyone looking to learn to join mike and be apart of that experience.

Just had my assesment lesson and then my first 2 hr lesson with Robbie Wilde and to say the least we were both shocked by how much my driving had improved!
I done stuff that I didnt think I ever would! Robbie's humour is so calming and relaxing, Im actually looking forward to my next lesson and seeing whatelse I can do!
Robbie is the biggest and best confidence boost I have or will ever have, he has so much faith in all his pupils!
The lessons are a two way thing, you wont advance till Robbie thinks your ready and vice versa.
Robbie Wilde is well worth the wait peeps!
Robbie Wilde gets thew 2010 award for the best driving instructor. Three cheers for Robbie! :D :p

Just a quick note to say another thank you to Robbie Wilde for the lessons to date. After years of putting of learning for various reasons, driving is now becoming a reality. My confidence has gone way up and that iS down to Robbie and his constant reassurance and support given in the lessons. If any one has a confidence crisis then Robbie is your man. Thanks again Robbie just in case I dont say it to you in person I really appreciate it.

Hi everybody. I passed my driving test today and I am very pleased. I should say that having a professional instructor is the most important factor in your learning process. My instructor was Mr. Jason Hall from the Big Red L Company. He took my test very serious and we worked very hard during my course. He does not let you to ignore your mistakes. He make you work very hard and teach you to appreciate what you have achieved.
So, don't waste your time with an instructor who you do not have any idea about him/ her. go with Jason.Good luck :)

I have only had four lessons so far with ROBBIE and he is a brilliant instructor. He listens, hes patient, hes understanding and he makes sure that you only do something when you are ready!

I have had 3 previous instructors (Manuel) and none of them have been as good as Robbie!

I would definatly recommend him to anybody that has to drive automatic!

I will always have Peter talking to me in my head when I'm driving!! Big, big thanks again :) :)

I just passed my test first time after doing an intensive course (4 weeks) with Peter Brett. I had very little driving experience before hand but progressed quickly despite the shocking winter weather and my confidence grew thanks to Peter's constant reassurance and patience. Peter's sense of humour and relaxed attitude made the lessons fun and exciting and I would recommend him to anyone learning to drive, be it an intensive course or a slightly less stressful one! Thanks a million Peter! :)

I passed my test first time around with the help of Amon.

He not only provides the skills and knowledge needed to pass your test,
but also gives you a solid base on which to keep on learning for years later.

Amon's teaching goes at a pace suited to you; knowing when you're at your limit,
but also knowing when to push you just that little bit further.

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Amon to anyone else looking to learn to
drive - in fact, I have recommended him to a couple of people already, which tells
you all you need to know.

"Amon is extremely patient and very easy going. To my complete surprise, I ended up passing first time and I am in no doubt that this was mainly due to Amon's encouragement and expertise. He also explains the manoeuvres in a really easy to understand way which I found very helpful. I would definitely recommend Amon to others. Thanks Amon!"

When I started driving I tried out a couple of instructors before coming accross Martin, and I can happily say he was by far the best. We got on really well and I always knew what stage I was at with my driving. He was very thourough and insistent on teaching me how to be a good driver rather than just how to pass the test. He was very patient, whilst steadily progressing my driving skills. Whatsmore I have him to thank for my success yesterday - passed first time with three minors (or driving faults technically).

Cheers Martin :lmao:

I passed my test today (with 5 minors) for the first time thanks to Jason Hall!! He was an excellent instructor, very patient and diligent. During my 3 months of learning he was very thorough and i really enjoyed my lessons.
Just before the test Jason gave great advice and now I'm glad to be on the roads!! :) I would recommend Jason to anyone and can't wait to do the Pass Plus course with him.
Thank you so much!!

My instructor was Jason Hall and I passed my test on the 15/09/2009, first time!
I learnt to drive in a short amount of time (5 weeks) and i am very pleased to of learnt with Jason and that i only got 4 minors in my test!
Looking at all the other testimonials, it seems that Jason only gets positive comments and i wouldn't disagree. He was a fantastic instructor and I am now on the road with confidence!

Thanks Jason!

Hello,

I would like to say a big HUGE thank you to Peter Brett, who gamely got in the passenger seat and gave me a couple of refresher lessons as I've not driven for 7 years. He was very calm, professional and extremely good company and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone in the area.

Thanks, Charlotte

Well where do I begin..
I passed my driving test first time on wednesday 09/09/09 with only 3 minors thanks to the amazing PETER BLIGHT! I have had so much fun learning to drive and peters beautiful singing voice brightened my day. I cant speak highly enough of this man, if only all driving instructors were as patient, calm and easy going as peter :D
The day before my test I was close to tears but peter reassured me i could do it and gave me the confidence to believe in myself.
If anyone reading this is looking for the perfect driving instructor then look no further..

I would like to say a very BIG thankyou to JASON HALL for everything he has done for me as my driving instructor, I was only with him for a short amount of time but in that time he managed to turn it all around for me. I really could not of passed without his incredible help and support. I recommend him as a instructor to anyone who is considering using the big red l company to learn to drive because he is so kind and really knows how to deal with your every need as a learner, practically and emotionally.

A massive thanks to Peter Blight for getting me through my test, finally! By the time I started learning with him I had had 2 previous instructors and failed 4 tests. My confidence in my own driving was nil, but Peter helped me gain confidence and driving skills, and I passed my test on Wednesday, which I never felt I'd do, and all of it was down to Peter's teaching! Thank you Peter

Well I passed with 3 minors, which I couldn't believe, but its all down to Keith. I've been a pain in the bum for the last couple of months, but he has given me encouragement, support, and the confidence to pass and to become a good driver. Thanks Keith Sayell you've been absolutely brillant and I recommend him to anyone.
If he can get me through my test then he can teach anyone, because I'm not the easiest person to teach. Thanks again for the support and encouragement Keith.

once i had finally completed the test i clicked finished and it came up with the answers that i had got wrong, apparantley i got every answer wrong which was clearly incorrect for example, what should you do when the red light shows at a set of traffic lights?... i answered with stop and wait according to this it was wrong which i find hard to believe. So i found this test a complete waist of time and i would not recommend using this to practice!!


Hi Adam,

We have checked the program and can find nothing wrong with it. We have checked with the software providers who are making an update to the number of questions you need to get correct to get a pass.

Is it possible you submitted twice? this may have cleared the questions you have answered. Anyway good luck with the real test.

Regards,

Tony

Peter is a very patient instructor, and has helped me immensely to get over my fear of driving around at more than 5 miles an hour! Learning to drive was not without its difficulties but from the very first lessons I felt relaxed because we were learning at my pace and I slowly became more confident. I thoroughly recommend Peter to anyone! But especially those who are nervous or lack confidence – thanks for all your help Peter, looking forward to my pass plus!

Hi,

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Jason Hardy.
I hade a couple of previous instructors but driving always made me a nervous wreck until Jason.
He made me realise how simple things really were, and guided me through an intensive course. I had all but given up on driving, I hadent driven for over a year then spent 4days with Jason and passed 1st time with only 4minors.
Not only did he prepare me for my test he taught me things i will remember and practice throughout my driving life.
Jason is a fantastic instuctor and a wicked bloke. I would reccommend him to anyone.

Thanks again.
Ben

Whoohoo! Just passed my test last week (16th Jan)
Hayley - Thank you so much, you are a great instructor. I always looked forward to my lessons, well..the first few were a bit nervy, but that's to be expected :lmao: But once I got settled in it was fantastic, I learned so much and not just about driving - but also about myself, my confidence grew with every lesson. Hayley is clear in her instructions but also puts you at ease from the first lesson, fun to be with and humorous, I never failed to finish a lesson with a smile on my face. :D
Thank you again Hayley, you given me the freedom of the road that I've only dreamed of for so long!

All the best, and see you on the road :)
Andy

I would like to say thank you to Hayley for being such a patient person!!!!! I don't know how many times she had to repeat herself or explain why there is a clutch in the car!

Having had lessons with other people before I can safely say she was the easiest to be in a car with for hours and her humour (and endless conversation!) helped me get through the (sometime fraught!) lessons!

Thanks Hayley! (Oh and beware - I'm on the road on my own now in a bright blue car.......)

PS - hope Squirrel is behaving! :lmao:
