Reviews

My driving anxiety has gone!

5
I used to be able to drive on the motorway with no problems but then for years I suffered from a driving anxiety and could not go on the motorway or some A roads. It felt like I was trapped and had to go the back routes everywhere which was time consuming and really made my anxiety worse as I just used avoidance. I had one session with James and it’s changed my life. I have been able to get back onto the motorways and I have not had any anxiety since. I can’t thank James enough and recommend him 100%

10 STARS

5
10 stars if I could, never have I felt more comfortable. I have quite a lot of anxiety and James's methods of practice seem to clear that anxiety away.

James also have me some great tools for my anxiety outside of driving that have made my life so much better.

If you are a anxious person or you get riddled with fear, I couldn't recommend him enough.

Thank you again.

Highly Recommended, The Best ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5
James is such an amazing driving instructor, I can’t rate him highly enough. He taught my son a few years back, and we’ve been friends ever since .. long may this continue. With his teaching my son went on to pass first time so now he’s teaching my daughter. My daughter had severe anxiety and low confidence and with James’s help and care she was able to overcome it and built her self esteem and positiveness. Her anxiety has practically gone as he taught her not only to drive but to handle situations without panicking. James has a complete understanding about nerves and how they affect you, and ways of dealing with them effectively using calming conversations and making you comfortable when driving.
I would recommend GP Driving School to anyone, they are the best there is. X

Highly recommended

5
I had driving lessons with James and passed my test on my first attempt. James was very patient and knowledgable and made me feel calm, comfortable and confident, so much so that I actually looked forward to each lesson. He was always reliable and on time, whilst also being easily contactable to ask questions or arrange lessons. I’ve had a few different instructors moving from city to city and I found James without doubt the best instructor I’ve had. I would highly recommend the driving school without any hesitation to anyone looking for lessons!

What can we say about James. … James was an absolute star and enabled our son to pass first time. He’s supportive, and accommodating. Our son loved his lessons with him and won’t hesitate using him again when our daughters old enough. 5 stars is not enough!! Thank you so much James
