Andrew Usher Driving School

Andrew is an incredible driving instructor. I've had other instructors in the past and none had made me feel as calm or capable as Andrew did. Not only does Andrew give you the skills and prepare you very well for passing your test he also focuses on providing you with the skills for after passing the test so you can be a calm, capable and safe driver once you have passed.I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Andrew is a patient, friendly and methodical instructor, who is exceptionally generous both with his time (as far as availability will allow- he is justifiably popular!) and his advice. As someone who was by no means a natural or confident driver, and who found all aspects of driving challenging, Andrew was unfailing patient and encouraging- he even put back his family holiday by a day to accommodate my test date!I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew to anyone; he is an outstanding instructor, who prioritises safety and complete mastery of the basics, but more importantly, he made our lessons, and driving full stop, enjoyable.

Last summer, when I started my driving lessons I was fairly anxious about the risks of the road and lacking confidence about my ability to learn to drive. Andrew was the perfect choice of driving instructor: he takes a calm and patient approach, he is positive and understanding, he is friendly and easy to talk to. What’s more, Andrew’s teaching ensures a good grasp of the basics and control of the car before moving on to the riskier aspects of driving. This approach was perfect for me and Andrew’s training not only allowed me to pass my test on the first attempt but also has set me up to be a confident driver every day. On top of being an excellent driving instructor, Andrew is a genuinely lovely man, it's nice to feel comfortable and have a chat with him as you're driving around Oxford. I strongly recommend learning to drive with Andrew!

Andrew is a fantastic instructor who has an extremely thorough & methodical approach to teaching. Perfect for any nervous or anxious drivers as he's very calm & reassuring. Takes great care to explain and ensure you understand why you're doing what you're doing, and I'm a better driver for it. Also very flexible/accommodating with lesson length & timing. Passed first time under Andrew's excellent instruction.

Andrew is a fantastic driving instructor. From my first lesson right up to passing my test he made sure he put me at ease. He's the first instructor I've had who has really focused on ensuring you're in control of the car and feel confident in what you're doing. Though it may seem like a slow process at first, once you master the basics with him you'll progress rapidly. An absolutely brilliant instructor and I can't recommend him highly enough!

Andrew is a great instructor, I spent many months with him and thoroughly enjoyed the time spent driving around Oxford. I was particularly impressed with his calm attitude and attention to detail which I believe really aided the learning process. I managed to pass my driving test first time thanks to him.It seems prices in oxford are quite high for driving lessons, but Andrew offers very good competitive rates and I highly recommended learning with him as he will ensure that you know everything you need to know.He can be very busy so it’s always good to book lessons in advance!

I would recommend Andrew to anyone looking to learn to drive and pass the test. He is excellent, one of the best instructors in Oxford. I drove with other instructors, before I started taking lessons with him, with no success, it was a waste of time and money. You might find it slow at the start, but just stay with Andrew! His teaching is structured, he is following a very effective programme he's developed, which covers all aspects of the driving and road safety. Andrew will prepare you well for the driving part of test and for manoeuvring. He will explain in detail and practise with you every aspect of each of the tested manoeuvres. I passed the test on the 1st attempt with him. Once you passed the test, you will start driving independently with confidence, because you were well trained!

Andrew is an excellent driving instructor who takes his time explaining complex ideas to new and inexperienced drivers. He has been so patient and kind, and is willing to go the extra mile for his students. He always encouraged me when I was unsure of my ability, and gave me the necessary skills to pass. I can't recommend him enough!

Andrew is a fantastic driving instructor. He is incredibly detailed with his explanations, patient and encouraging. I was a very nervous driver and my confidence was boosted with his help and support. I cannot recommend him enough. I passed first time thanks to Andrew!

Andrew has been a fantastic driving instructor, whose calm and concise teaching helped me pass first time. Having tried other instructors before, his teaching helped me so much.I would recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor, particularly if you are feeling nervous and unconfident.
