Hi, I'm Mike and I'm a specialist in helping nervous pupils learning to drive in the Basildon, Essex area. I offer full one to one driving lessons so you have my undivided attention. I cover Basildon and the surrounding areas and can be flexible with lesson times. I am very calm and like to make lessons fun whilst learning.

Nervous pupils will be progressed at a speed they are happy with, after all, it should be an enjoyable process, not a stressful one. Lacey's driving school lesson prices may not the cheapest but offer excellent value for money. All lessons are in a Manual car. You need to be at least 17 years of age and if you have not already done so, apply for a provisional license from the DVLA.

Honestly I cannot fault Mike. What an absolutely lovely man. Made my driving experience the best yet! He brings comfort and comedy with all his knowledge. I passed first time under the lessons of Mike. Would highly recommend. Will miss my lessons with him a lot.

Mike is a fantastic driving instructor and would highly recommend him. He put me at ease from the very first lesson and encouraged me throughout. Mike was very reliable and accommodating. He helps support you through your theory aswell as learning to drive. I can’t thank Mike enough for helping me pass my test.

I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Mike. He is great at helping nervous drivers like me overcome their fears! I passed my test this week and am over the moon! Mike is always having a laugh with you and very easy to get along with as well as being great and teaching you everything you need to know to pass first time! Thanks Mike!

Mike was a great instructor and helped me progress and pass my test easily and quickly. He was really friendly and patient and had a laid back approach to teaching, I was behind the wheel in the first lesson! If you thinking about learning with Mike, do it! He has great resources and is a great tutor!
