Lawrence is an amazing driving instructor! Whenever I ask questions, he will always explain in a clear way to make me understand. He is also really patient with you and was very supportive when I did fail. Ask questions whenever you aren’t sure of anything and Lawrence will always be more than happy to respond. Also, he teaches manoeuvres in a way that anyone can do it. He knows all the tips and tricks for you to pass your test. Though, passing requires an element of luck not just skills. Nevertheless, my confidence in driving improved massively from my first lesson to my last and it was genuinely due to Lawrence! 100% recommend!

Today I had my best experience, passed with 3 minors only and I would like to recommend Lawrence for all his commitment, professionalism and patience to take me on board after I failed 3 times. I was anxious and thought that I will never hear ‘ Congratulations, you passed’ and I think it’s harder to correct someone’s driving than to teach from the beginning. Thank you 122378 times for helping me develop and improve my driver skills. I cannot describe in words all my appreciation for you. I recommend Lawrence as the best driving instructor that gave me motivation to carry on my lessons and to be able to face another test after so many disappointments.

It was really a smooth journey with Lawrence and just passed my first driving test. He’s indeed a ‘spot on’ with his skills, patience and commitment, paying attention to every detail. The ‘redemptions’ 😁 (corrections after driving faults) have indeed become a reinforcement to a safer driving habit and I’m glad I passed through this process and experience. Thank you! Highly recommend👌☺️

I came to Lawrence in October, with very little confidence in my driving ability and no belief that I was ready to take a test. Throughout our lessons, Lawrence helped build my confidence, driving skills and got me test ready. Fast forward to December, and I have passed my driving test first time! I highly recommended Lawrence, especially if you are a nervous driver. His coaching style is great - very thorough, patient and easy to understand. I can’t thank Lawrence enough for helping me progress over the last few months and pass. I am over the moon!

Lawrence is hands down the BEST driving instructor you could ask for. He is so patient and doesn’t make you feel rushed or nervous if you don’t quite understand. His knowledge is second to none and I honestly wouldn’t have been able to pass without him. He has a loyalty to his students and never lets you down. Thank you for everything Lawrence🙏🚗😃

Lawrence is an amazing teacher who's helped me learn driving from scratch. He works with you to overcome anxiety, builds your confidence and trains you to become a safe driver. He has extensive knowledge, is very professional and has commendable teaching skills.! I learnt to drive with him in Kettering and had to move away to another area due to work commitments. Took the test today in a totally new city where I hadn't been around much and driven in those areas for the first time during my test. I only managed to pass due to the comprehensive knowledge and skills Lawrence had imparted and enforced throughout the lessons. I'm always going to cherish my learning journey with him; so glad I chose Lawrence's Driving School. 😊 Highly, highly recommended ! 👍🏻

I can’t recommend Lawrence’s Driving School highly enough. Lawrence is an excellent instructor—patient, calm, professional, and incredibly thorough in his teaching.I was a very nervous driver when I started, but Lawrence took the time to build my confidence step by step. He explained everything clearly, never made me feel rushed, and always made sure I understood not just how to drive, but why things should be done a certain way.Thanks to his encouragement, guidance, and belief in me, I overcame my fears and passed my driving test. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about helping you become a safe and confident driver, Lawrence is the one to choose. Thank you for everything!

would highly recommend Lawrence as an instructor. As someone who had anxiety about driving and lacked confidence initially. Lawrence helped me to feel a lot more at ease and is very patient when teaching. every lesson was always positive and also his sense of humour always added to the lesson😄even if I felt I’d had a bad lesson he would always highlight to me the positives of my learning and skills. I’m very happy to have passed first time, couldn’t have done it without the incredible teaching from Lawrence!!🚗
