Getting straight to the point, I would highly recommend learning to drive with Colin! He is patient, kind and thoughtful, but also pushes you to make progress: it's an ideal combination that helps you to improve faster than you might imagine initially. I didn't just learn to pass my test, I honestly think I've learnt to be a safe driver with Colin, with advice and tips worth remembering beyond leaving the test centre - thank you so much!

I just passed my driving test first time and I can't thank Colin enough for what he did for me! I made the best choice when I decided to learn to drive with him. Colin is reliable, very patient and has a way of keeping people positive and confident. He was always ready to answer any questions I had and he managed to keep me focused, though I was a very nervous learner. I would recommend Colin to all those who want to have the best learning to drive experience. Thank you again so much! Mirela Denut

“I started driving lessons with Colin & was a very nervous driver with no experience what so ever. Colin put me at ease being in the driving seat and gave me the confidence that I could learn to drive. Always very friendly & patient with me, he always explained any mistakes I made and gave me solutions on how to amend them. I would highly recommend driving success to anyone wanting to learn to drive!! thankyou so much for everything Colin”

“Colin is a great driving instructor, had lessons for nearly a year and today passed first time with only 2 minor faults. I honestly cant thank him enough for being so patient with me. He is a lovely man who has a great sense of humour and makes you feel at ease very quickly, always on time and will always praise you for the good things and is always on point with any mistakes. I am very happy with todays result, without Colin giving me the push in the right direction I couldn't have done it. Highly recommended a brilliant instructor, thank you so so much for everything.

I would like to say a massive thank you to Colin!!! I would highly recommend anyone and everyone looking for a driving instructor to book with him, learning to drive is not easy and teaching someone like me as nervous and scared as I was must of been such a nightmare ( im a nervous talker) Im pretty sure Colin went home after every lesson with a massive headache and with alot of useless information about my life, child, work and home but even when I wanted to give up he didnt give up on me, he let me learn at my own pace giving me the support and guidance I needed to pass my test first time!! I can genuinly say I will miss my sunday afternoons with him having my lessons, and hour an a half doesnt sound very long but it would be a lifetime if you didnt get on with the person you are sharing a car with, its a small space but right up until 30 seconds before my test he had me laughing and alot more at ease than I ever thought I would be! A first class driving instructor and all round lovely man. ShelleyJo from Rushden wrote:

i started driving with colin in september after doing my test twice with another instructor and he gave me confidence in myself and helped me believe in myself to do the manoeuvres like parallel paring and verus to the left that i struggled with. he is always polite smartly dressed and good at time keeping always getting to my house on time if not a few minutes earlier. i would highly recommend you to any new comers to driving. i hope to do my pass plus with you in the near future.Leigh from Raunds wrote:

It's also great that you get a text and e-mail the day before so you can never forget a lesson. .”

"My parents chose Colin as they had read previous reviews and they all sounded very positive. On first meeting Colin he made me feel very comfortable and relaxed and we seemed to get along well. His instructions were always clear and I was never worried about asking him questions. He shows a lot of patience and always seemed to remain calm, which would put me at ease. Arranging lessons was very easy and he was always flexible and fitted in around me. He is an excellent instructor and I would highly recommend him. Thanks once again Colin, no doubt I'll see you around".Greg

Colin is an exceptional instructor, really calm and never gets aggravated, or gets angry when I made mistakes. He taught at a good pace for me, neither to fast as not to understand, but I found I never got bored. Colin is really easy to get along with, and really flexible for booking lessons. Overall I would happily recommend him. I also wondered if you offered pass plus? Thank you ever so much, benCraig from Rushden wrote:
"I never saw myself being able to drive, let alone passing first time which i did! But instantly meeting Colin from our first lesson, he made me feel comfortable and at ease with driving straight away. He gave me the confidence and the belief to be able to drive, also convincing me that passing first time would be easy. A very nice man with the skills and tutoring to go with it, it was a pleasure to have met him and to have been taught by him. Couldn't recommend him highly enough.

“I would like to thank you, very much for your time and professional competence in teaching me to drive confidently and safely,to pass my driving test first time. I know the effort that was needed, was to a high standard, due to my understanding of the English language, which made it a little difficult for me to understand, some of the commands you asked of me i.e like pull over please in a safe place or maybe when you asked me to take the second or third exits on a roundabout as I didn't know what you meant until you explained it,like take the exit 2 or 3 off a roundabout, I have only been in the country for some 10 month from Thailand and as they drive on the same side as England we do not have many roundabouts. I would again like to wish you good fortune and hope that you always have clients to get the pass grades that you require to keep you and your company going, so that many people ,young and old get the benefit of your experience.”

"After spending lots of money on driving lessons i thought i was never going to pass, until I booked my first lesson with Colin. From day one he made me feel at ease and very comfortable, which no other instructor has managed to do. I decided to opt for the 20hr intensive course which was suitable for myself. Although i had a few lessons before i never felt i learn't anything and my confidence was shattered. We did the lessons every other day for a month to fit around my work schedule and in no time i was a confident driver. Colin was very good at giving constructive critisism and for praising you when you had done something well. He was very understanding and when my test date came he managed (i'm not sure how) to calm my nerves and passed 1st time!!! My first lesson was on the 2nd March and i passed on the 5th May with only 5 minors, which is amazing for me, to think of where i was 2 months ago... Thanks Colin!

After taking five years to gain the courage to start driving lessons, Colin eased me into it gently and allowed me to progress at my own pace. With thorough explanations on everything I needed to know and helpful tips I soon got the hang of it and never felt like I was stupid when I got something wrong. The car itself (Citroen C3 at time of writing) is well maintained and great to drive. Thanks so much - without you I wouldn't have been able to pass on my first attempt.Andrew Georgio from Rushden wrote:
..As a nervous learner, I found Colin to be both a highly professional and reassuring Instructor. Lessons were paced to my level of experience and to my mood "on the day". Nothing was rushed, nor was anything dragged out - I would not hesitate in the slightest to recommend him to anyone of a similar nature to mine.
