LEE FROM TORQUAY Feb 2026

Congratulations Lee Marc Cherry on passing your driving test 1st time with just 3 minor faults! A great drive, well deserved! Lee said: I would like to thank Sarah for getting me though my lessons and helping me pass first time with only 3 minors. If it wasn't for her i think I'd have struggled without her guidance. She made the lessons fun and easy. Also with my work she was very flexible with me booking lessons. Thank you so much Sarah x

EMMA FROM PAIGNTON Feb 2026

An awesome pass for Emma who left us this lovely review: Brilliant driving school. Got me on the road in 4 months. Ask for Celisha to be your instructor. She's amazing... gave me coincidence and made me believe in myself! Taught me everything I needed to know and more. Very supportive and I've made a friend along the way. I never dreaded a lesson. She made it fun. Thankyou so much!!!

MEGAN FROM NEWTON ABBOT Feb 2026

Well done Megan on passing your test first time! Megan left us this awesome review: I had Emily as my driver Insructor, she is an amazing driver Insructor never got stressed when I went wrong. A lovely woman over all helped me with my theory gave me so much support, also gave me amazing amount of support when I was getting ready for my test. She helped me pass first time, and didn't let me do anything I was happy to do or book my test when I wasn't ready. Over all amazing and would recommend Emily to anyone who would like to drive!
