Learning to drive

Had lessons with Jon as an absolute beginner learning manual and passed my test with only 2 minors a month later. Very patient and professional. I have an anxious disposition but he is very calm and put me at ease when I made mistakes. Very willing to adapt to my style of learning and sought to explain things in a way that I'd understand. Highly recommend!

Jon has been an excellent ADI Part 3 trainer. His input has been viable in learning the skills required to pass the exam.

The training was well structured and easy to follow with sessions linked to DVSA standards. I felt much more confident delivering lessons even before passing the exam. I passed the Part 3 in my first attempt and will highly recommend training with Jonathan to become a driving instructor.
