Why Choose Driving Lessons With Us?
What our customers have to say about us…
From the very beginning my instructor Cristian showed incredible patience with me. Helped me pass last week with only 2 minors. Couldn’t recommend him as a driving instructor enough. Absolutely brilliant.
Passed first time with Chris, he made me feel incredibly at ease and also made the lessons really enjoyable! Highly recommend
My experience with John Harvey driving school was amazing. My instructor was Marcelo and he was an amazing instructor who built my confidence on the road and was always patient with me. The services this driving school provides has helped me become a confident driver and I am happy that I was able to pass first time. Without the belief I had from my instructor and the in depth lessons I got, I don’t think I would have been able to pass, so thank you very much Marcelo and to the John Harvey Driving School
The most important criteria for me when choosing a driving school was that I wanted a patient, friendly instructor who was able to fit my lessons around my work schedule.
Learning with John was significantly better than the first time I had lessons. His methods were excellent. Very patient, clear and calming. It made learning to drive much more enjoyable than my previous experience.I would defiantly recommend the school as my driving experience with John made something that I hated doing enjoyable. Having such clear explanations really helped.
There is literally nothing I would of changed about my experience with John Harvey Driving School.
Thank you so much for all your help, I never thought I would pass my driving test, let alone with a clean sheet (zero faults)!!
I was looking for a driving school with good online reviews and price. I got a recommendation from a friend about JHDS. Learning to drive was slightly harder than I thought it would be. I found Karen to be very friendly and relaxed during lessons and was easy to learn to drive with.
Recommendations, friendly and nice instructors were all important criteria to me when I was looking for a driving school. Price and pass rates were also important. My sister passed 1st time with the school so I knew they were good.
I found my lessons much more enjoyable than I thought they would be and I found myself finding things easy to get the hang of. Chris’ teaching methods were very effective and easy to understand.
I would defiantly recommend the school as I was very happy with everything and I’m sure my friends would be too. Everything seemed great to me. Thank you so much.
