I decided to change instructor after having an unsatisfactory experience with my first instructor.I had a very short deadline before my test date so I decided to seek the help of a top notch instructor and came across David.In only 4 weeks he got me test ready and I passed because of his special approach to instructing.From the very first lesson, he took time to understand the areas I need to work on ahead of the test date I had scheduled and was able to efficiently teach me everything I needed to learn to pass the test.I can't thank him enough for the knowledge of driving that came from him. His scientific approach helped me to pass my test in a very short period of time.

About David Brown
Hi, I'm David Brown. I've been a driving instructor in Edgware and North London for over 30 years now, and I still love helping people learn to drive properly. I'm a fully qualified ADI and I used to work with the AA driving school, where I won 'Instructor of the Year' three times in a row back in 2008, 2009, and 2010. My approach is all about creating a relaxed, supportive atmosphere so you can learn without stress. I've memorised 106 test routes around here, which really helps when it comes to test preparation. I've got a 90% first-time pass rate with my students, and I focus on building good driving habits from the very first lesson. Whether you're a complete beginner, need a refresher, or feel a bit nervous about driving, I'm here to help you become a confident and safe driver. I offer both automatic and manual lessons, plus things like motorway driving, Pass Plus, and intensive courses if you're in a hurry. My students often say they appreciate my patience and the way I break things down clearly. I'm based in Edgware (NW7) and cover the surrounding areas of North London. If you're looking for lessons, give me a call or drop me an email - I'd be happy to chat about what you need.

I started doing lessons with David after I felt that my progress had stagnated with my previous instructor. Unlike him, David wants his students to do their test and pass on the first attempt. My previous instructor was hesitant to take me outside of 20mph zones but David took me on dual carriageways, country lanes and national speed limit roads. He will ensure that you are sufficiently prepared for your test by making you familiar with all the test routes and the general area. Students will also benefit from his wealth of knowledge on what the examiner is looking for and the easy to miss sections of routes that could make the difference between passing and failing. I passed first time under David, despite having a lot of bad habits. He helped me make the necessary corrections with his demanding yet rewarding approach to teaching.
When I decided to take driving lessons I was lucky to find Top Gear Driving Tuition . My instructor was the best one I could find and he helped me to learn driving in short time. I managed to pass from my first attempt with just 2 minors. For everyone looking for a driving instructor you are on the right page as he is the best one you can get. Thank you for making me a driver!
Very happy with my experience at Top Gear Driving Tuition! Dave's automatic lessons were comprehensive and tailored to my pace of learning. His expertise and patience created a stress-free environment, which boosted my confidence on the road. I'm excited to share that I passed my driving test on the first attempt! Highly recommend!
My name is Mohamed Ghandour and I had the pleasure driving with David. David is a friendly and experienced instructor who helped me pass my driving test on my first attempt. Following our first lesson's assessment, I followed his suggestion on the number of lessons needed to get ready for the exam which was fair and accurate. I have enjoyed his friendly chats and he was always on time for the lessons.
