John is an amazing instructor and made me feel so comfortable every minute I was in the car with him, he built my confidence immensely and I can’t thank him enough for helping me pass, not only did he teach me incredibly well but his humour is second to none and our lessons were so enjoyable as well.

The change in “A” over the past few months is incredible… He has handed out his CV and has opened up about his experiences… He has more belief in himself & is starting to see a positive future and I believe this is down to our partnership.

Couldn’t ask for more. Always incredibly patient and clear in his instruction, it was a pleasure to be taught by John. With his great instruction I passed first time, offering various personally adapted methods to ensure I could do as well as possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend John for any one looking for an instructor and am very glad to have gotten to know him. The easiest 5/5 I’ve ever given, thanks John.

I am really grateful to John, for his calm way in which he has helped me to gain the confidence to learn to drive and believe in myself. This I feel , is because he is a gifted teacher who is prepared to share his valuable knowledge and skills. Thank you John

I am writing this as my son Jack is not on Facebook. John is one of the most genuine, calming, friendly and funny people you could ever meet. He was recommended to us as an instructor and he is such a positive influence to nervous learners. We are so pleased to have met John and are proud to now call him a family friend. Oh! and Jack passed his test yesterday – Thank you John!!

Thanet Local Children’s Partnership Group are excited to be working with the Community Driving school who are delivering this innovative approach to supporting our young people getting back into work and training.
Having had the opportunity to access a similar scheme myself twenty years ago in the West Midlands I can testify that not only did this open up the job market for me but also gave me a sense of achievement and independence which we want to share with our young people.
We would like to thank John for helping our young people access this opportunity.
