Learner and trainee feedback

What was learning with Jon like?
Let Rob and Yasir tell you.

Their full reviews describe the teaching and support they received during lessons and instructor training.

Driving lessons

Had Jon as my instructor. Incredibly patient and informative, a great teacher and generally a really nice guy! Sadly didn’t pass on my first test due to nerves but John was very understanding and helped me get a second test and a few top-up sessions booked in, which led to a pass! Highly recommend!

Driving instructor training

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.
