Learn to drive an automatic and you don't worry about the gears or stalling or using a clutch. Learn to drive with manual gears and after passing your driving test you can drive manual or automatic cars. I was apprehensive to start driving and was concerned that I wouldn't get along with any instructor.
Steve however, completely eliminated those fears and helped me through all the stress and worry of 4 tests. It was evident that Steve is passionate about wanting the best for all his students as he shared my sadness after my 3 fails. I could completely count on him and trust his judgment, whether I needed to have more lessons in a week or whether I needed to control my nerves.

Great service, punctual and organise. I call my instructor a “perfectionist” and an ambassador for electric mini😀. He uses diagrams to iterate his points and to aid my understanding, he’s calm and patient and keen on safe driving. All the qualities of a great instructor, so glad I chose Learn Smart Driving School to build my confidence on the road. I passed on my first attempt with only three minor faults. Thanks Mike

Mike is an excellent driving instructor who adapted to my learning styles and is very helpful with any concerns or problems you are having. I learnt everything in around 5 months with a long break in the middle due to COVID but we picked everything back up quickly in time for my test. Passed 1st time and then went on to do my pass plus course with Mike as well. I would recommend Mike to all those who are wanting to learn from his many years of driving and teaching experience. I have been driving for quite some time, no crashes so far, and learning all different tips and tricks has really helped

Learn Smart Driving School were excellent from the start for me. I had a brilliant instructor, Craig, who is super friendly and has a lot of experience. He helped prepare me for my theory and practical tests, both of which I passed first time thanks to his adaptable teaching style. He kept me focused, giving me a wealth of knowledge as to what I should expect during my test, and also sound advice on how to deal with any driving situation. I highly recommend Learn Smart Driving School to anyone wanting to learn how to drive properly and obtain their license.

I had lessons with Craig Baggaley pretty much from scratch and passed first time after around 3-4 months! Could not be more pleased with the service provided and due the flexibility in scheduling I was able to learn whilst working full time. He is a fantastic instructor and made me feel fully prepared for the test. He not only teaches you how to pass the test but also how to drive independently and with confidence! I would definitely recommend choosing this instructor!

I took lessons with Mike regularly from summer onwards, over 20 lessons and £1000+ later my scheduled appointment to use my instructors car for my driving test was cancelled less than 2 weeks before the test... Unbelievably unprofessional from Mike as there was zero loyalty to a good, consistent customer and no willingness to see a student through to the end. Very disappointed and have told the two friends who I previously recommended to not use his services as I would never want this to happen to anyone else. I was left to sort out my own arrangements without any additional lessons before my

Before Laura took me on I was a very nervous driver but from day one she took all of that away and gave me the confidence I needed. My work schedule is very hectic but that wasn't an issue, Very easy to talk to, every thing was explained in a way I could understand perfectly, I'd recommend her (and her colleagues if they are anything like her) to anyone. I could go on all day but just a huge thank you from me. I wish you all good luck.

Mike is an amazing driving instructor. Really calming and so experienced I felt comfortable from day one learning to drive with Mike. Really good and thorough at explaining every exercise so your confidence always builds. I would recommend Mike to anyone and if you're nervous about driving I would 100% recommend, as he normalises the experience and proves that driving is nothing to be scared of!
