The Best Experience Ever

Gary is a fantastic instructor! Very clear and calm. I had failed one test previously with another instructor and was quite a nervous driver but I ended up passing with Garry with no faults!! Thank you!. 

Abby

I am so happy with DVDS. Mandy my instructor was amazing. I cannot be happier, she communicated with me amazingly. Was very calm, patient and understanding with me through out all my lesson. Wouldn’t have been able to pass first time without her! 10/10 would recommend

Lucy

I had a great driving experience with DVDS, I highly recommend it for new drivers. My instructor was Simon and he communicated really well and I always felt able ask questions without being judged. Simon was really helpful because he pointed out other people’s mistakes so that I knew not to do that in the future. The timing of lessons was really flexible around school. Thank you for the help.
