Reviews – UK Driving Tuition

Our Reviews

Happy smiley faces of all our wonderful pupils who have passed their driving test from us.

Average of 4.96 from a total of 2456 reviews

The reason I chose UK Driving Tuition was because of the space availability and reviews available online. Rick had received positive reviews and he made the contact to schedule me.

I passed my test on the first attempt and credit Rick for excellent instruction as I had years of driving bad habits to unlearn and develop better habits.

The most memorable will be the mnemonic devices Rick used to groove in good habits like 'tires and tarmac' for distance between cars in a queue or the 6-point observations or when someone 'knows the road' on a country lane 'but not the other drivers on it' which grooves in the awareness for speed control.

The theory test was easy relative to the practical and I only missed one question as I had obtained the DVSA book and studied it. I watched over 114 hazard videos online at least twice.

Rick did an excellent job of calming my nerves which could at times overpower my driving skills by reminding me that I know how to drive after 45 years of US driving. He made an intimidating experience achievable through his gentle approach to instruction.

The instruction removed doubts I had about the 'best' way to handle driving situations I'd already been encountering and each lesson I brought questions that Rick confidently answered. I am certain I am a much better and safer driver now.

With driving experience with over 10 Years back in India, I was searching for something that would teach me the right way to pass UK driving test and UK DRIVING TUITION intensive crash course seems perfect for me. I took 10hour course and was able to clear my test the first time. Cheers to Narcisa who was able to cover all the concepts needed to drive in UK and teach me the right way to clear my test. Would definitely recommend this.

Having no self confidence to actually being able to drive confidently and freely, was a dream and Lucas Fisher helped me do it under 3 weeks. He reassured me, was patient with me and made sure I was comfortable when going though dual carriages and roundabouts (something I struggled with).
Plus his bubbly and energetic persona made the driving lessons fun as always!
Thank you so much Lucas. passed first time with 2 minors, which is blessing knowing how much the rules and regulations have changed

After taking a break from driving lessons due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I was looking for something short and intensive to get me ready for my driving test. Uk driving tuition were highly efficient at organising intensive driving lessons for me a week prior to my test. My instructor was Elizabeth for the duration of the week. Prior to our first lesson she shared theory material and videos relevant to the practical test in order to make best of the limited hours we had. She was also extremely patient, explained manoeuvres both visually and verbally and helped me to improve my confidence on my road. She was quick to identify my areas of weakness and worked with me to resolve them. Her faith in me resonated on the test day itself and I cannot thank her enough. I would highly recommend Elizabeth and Uk DrivingTuition.

Elizabeth is a very good and experienced instructor. She was very calm and patient, allowing me to feel comfortable and at ease when driving. She was able to easily pick up on my mistakes, even the small ones, providing me with sound advice on how to overcome these. I was glad to have picked UK Driving Tuition over any other company. I highly recommend UK Driving Tuition to anyone.

A big thank you to UK Driving Tuition and my instructor Elizabeth for helping me pass my driving test!

I chose UK Driving Tuition because they have really good reviews and a high pass rate. They also offer flexible scheduling, which is great for fitting lessons around my other commitments. Plus, their instructors are known for being patient and supportive, which is important for a new driver like me.

UK Driving Tuition helped me meet my goals by providing thorough and structured lessons that built my confidence behind the wheel. The instructors Rick gave me clear feedback and tailored the lessons to focus on areas where I needed improvement. They also prepared me well for the driving test by covering all the necessary skills and road rules within 34 hours. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to pass my test on the first try and feel safe and competent driving on my own.

One of the most memorable things with UK Driving Tuition was my first time successfully reverse bay parking. I had been struggling with it for a while (till the day of Diving test), but Rick was really patient and gave me some great tips. When I finally got it right, it felt like a huge accomplishment.

I passed my theory test by studying consistently and using a variety of resources. I used the official DVSA revision materials, including the Highway Code and practice question apps. I made a study schedule to go through different topics each day, and took plenty of practice tests to get used to the format and timing. Watching videos online that explained tricky concepts. By the time the test day came, I felt confident and well-prepared and also passed it on first try.

What I liked most about UK Driving Tuition was the personalized approach to teaching. The lessons were tailored on TOTAL DRIVE App to my specific needs and progress, which made learning more effective and less stressful. As for my instructor, I really appreciated his patience and supportive attitude. He never made me feel bad for making mistakes and always provided constructive feedback.

My experience with UK Driving Tuition will help me in the future by giving me the skills and confidence to drive safely and independently. The comprehensive training I received means I know how to handle different driving situations, from busy city traffic to rural roads. Additionally, the disciplined study habits I developed for the theory test have improved my ability to prepare for other exams and challenges.

⁠I passed first time! The reason I wanted to start driving lessons was to be able to crack on and make me confident. I really wanted to pass my driving test. ⁠Getting over my fear of reverse parallel parking and big roundabouts, was a big achievement for me. Having Ricks reassurance was really helpful.

I passed my theory test by using the app provided by DVSA and tiktok videos

⁠Rick was probably one of the nicest people ever, so calm and really helps you if you are stuck!! And helps in any situation and learn driving UK was a really easy process to organise driving lessons.

next step, now I have passed, is ⁠to help my confidence and always improve my driving

Will (Bingley) taught my son to drive. He’s been absolutely fantastic! I would recommend him. Calm, patient, easy to get on with, he has a great way of explaining things. He doesn’t rush anything but at the same time has a clear learning plan so you have an idea of progress. Will goes above and beyond to help. Looking forward to meeting him again in March when my 2nd son will be starting to drive.

I passed my driving test first time with Rick Dallaston. Rick is a pleasure. He blends a deep knowledge of driving with a thoughtful, structured and personal approach to teaching. I had failed 10 previous tests prior to starting with him and he got me passed first time. That should tell you everything you need to know. I can now drive to work and take trips with my family. My whole experience was exceptional. I will recommend to anyone who will listen.

I just wanted to say that Simon is a credit to your driving school. After having a taster lesson with him, I knew I had found the right instructor for me. He has patience, understanding and most importantly for me, he adapted his teaching methods so I could understand them. I passed first time with only three minors!

Outstanding support from Narcisa on my intensive 10-hour course gave me a lot of pointers and great advice. Even though I am an experienced driver Narcisa is crucial in my success in passing the test in less than 3 days. I highly recommend the company and the instructors.

The experience was perfect, the instructor Kevin Winship, learn me everything also if my English is not perfect. Him was with me all time.

Was little difficult for me to communicate with him, because I don't speak a very well English. Him was patient. I didn't trust my self first time. But him told me "Ana you can doing"

Thank you for everything

Had a very positive experience recently with UKDrivingTuition. My instructor was Elizabeth and she was very helpful, patient, and collaborative in instructing me on a 10-hour fast-paced course to get my UK license. I had been driving in the US for 17 years and Elizabeth took that into account by trusting me with basic driving principles and focusing on the unique differences needed to pass the test. She was also down-to-earth and pleasant to talk to which helped me calm down during the lessons and my driving test.

Would highly recommend it to any future drivers looking to pass their UK driving

Kelly was an excellent instructor, she catered the lessons towards my weak points in driving and has shown trust in my abilities which gave me the confidence to pass my driving test. Her way of giving feedback helped me improve upon my mistakes.

I got a voucher for driving lessons for my birthday. We found UKDT online. I have found my lessons challenging but very rewarding. Kevin is so helpful and my lessons were suited to me. Thank you.
