Great western driving academy  Avis 

I just passed my test and wouldn’t have been able to do it without Marc and Simon’s help and support! I had the pleasure of having lessons with both, and they were both incredibly friendly, calm and genuinely wanted the best for me during my experience of learning to drive. Couldn’t recommend more!

Just passed my driving test and couldn’t have done it without Simon’s help - he was calm, helpful, friendly, and went through everything in detail so I could feel as prepared as possible for my test. A massive thank you to him - and I’ll never forget the polo game!

My instructor, Marcio, helped me greatly throughout my time as a learner driver. He was always very patient and gave constructive criticism to allow me to improve my abilities as best as possible.

Alfred was my instructor. He was very helpful and friendly. The lessons were calm and fun. I am recommending Alfred to my friends when they start their learner driver journey.

My instructor Abu is kind, patient and really helped to build my confidence in driving. He's great at answering any of my questions and very understanding when I make mistakes. He has an amazing calm demeanour that really helped with my nerves. I passed today, first try!

I highly recommend my driving instructor, Marcio, who helped me with my journey to pass my driving test over the recent months! Marcio is a very kind and thoughtful individual. He was always patient with me and I felt that it was a very safe/comfortable learning environment for me. He is very reactive with learner mistakes, and strives to do the best for his students. Marcio gives back very detailed and personalised feedback during driving lessons which have helped me to improve how to correct my mistakes efficiently. I’m so thankful I had Marcio as my driving instructor, he made it such a positive experience, and wish him all the best!

My instructor Waheed was amazing, very friendly and helped me pass my test.

There are no words to describe how Brilliant my Driving instructor Waheed Is. He was so patient and always believed in me even when I didn't. I can't thank him enough

Marc was my one and only driving instructor and I will be FOREVER grateful for his patience and motivation he gave me. Learning to drive is scary and making mistakes is scary and it’s rare to find an instructor that makes you feel as comfortable as Marc did, never shouted at me, never made me feel stupid, only ever corrected where needed and motivated me to do better! 10/10 recommend to anyone!

Simon has really helped me gain confidence in my driving, he’s patient, friendly, and always happy to answer questions. Thanks to Simon I feel safe and happy to drive by myself after passing my test.

I can’t thank Roque enough for his patience and guidance and encouragement throughout my driving journey From day one he created a calm and supportive environment making every lesson enjoyable and productive His clear instructions and reassuring approach gave me the confidence to pass my test and become a safe driver for life. Roque truly cares about his students success adapting his teaching to suit their needs without ever rushing the process I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an incredible instructor!

Great clear instructions. Really friendly. Loves to answer any questions I had and was supper supportive. Highly recommend!!!!

I enjoyed my lessons, Avind taught me so much and helped me improve on my driving and confidence. Sometimes while driving (independently now ☺️) and I spot poor driving I echo his "what are you doing?" statement under my breath.
Learning to drive in a new country can be stressful and Avind helped me identify areas I needed to improve on and did several test routes with me to help me prepare for test. I would recommend Avind to anyone.

James is a very good instructor. He has a solid method for teaching and is very understanding with the mistakes you make. I never felt under pressure whilst driving with him. I would 100% recommend him to anyone.

My instructor James was patient and got me through my lessons as an older learner and passed my test today. So grateful to him and recommend him and Great western driving academy! Thankyou !

Simon was a great instructor for our son. Really understanding and patient. He built our son’s confidence quickly, explaining everything perfectly.
Our son passed his test in 3 months and is a safe, happy driver because of Simon.
Thank you very much!

My experience was great. My instructor was patient with all of my foibles and questions. I felt prepared to take my test, and would highly recommend Great Western, and my instructor. Thanks again, I couldn't be happier!

Wonderful driving school experience. My instructor was calm and thorough with their explanations, helping to boost my confidence for driving generally, as well as for my test. Price was very good as well!

1st lesson went great and i was looking forward to continuing the driving journey.
2nd lesson began well but ended up on a main roundabout (as any younger driver would i panicked), because this roundabout was chockablock and near a football stadium where a match was about to begin. My instructor made it a very awkward situation and didn't have clear instructions on how to overcome it. He just swapped seats with me and didn't explain. He also kept reminding me that my bubbly and happy personality wasn't the way to be, where I then was upset so I only spoke when absoluetly necessary. My instructor at the end of the lesson said i need to learn to listen and concentrate. I for one was concentrating and listening, he just doesn't know me so doesn't know how I work.
I am now genuinely scared to participate in any driving related activities now.

My Driving Instructor was very patient and encouraging throughout my learning process. I was well thought and supported during all my lessons. Today I had my first test and I passed thanks to my instructor.❤️
