Acclaim Driving School

I started my driving lessons at the end of May 2023 with zero experience. I got Mark Spence as my instructor and I was a nervous wreck before going on my first lesson, as well as most lessons after that. Mark has the patience of a saint and knew exactly how to calm me down and make me feel more confident. I passed at the end of October and couldn’t have done it without him. I went from never ever wanting to drive to now being able to jump in the car whenever I want. I am able to drive to work on the motorway to work without having a complete meltdown because of the confidence he gave me. Thanks again Mark!

Thank you very much to Timothy Cooke for helping me pass first time! Timothy is a highly competent, clear and professional driving instructor, who is very easy to get along with, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with him. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone learning to drive.

I had a great experience learning to drive with my instructor, Graeme Harvey. He was professional, patient and clear and consistent in his teaching style each lesson. I noticed quick progression week on week, and have Graeme's tips and techniques to thank for that. So much so that I passed my test first time! Highly recommended, thank you for everything.

My instructor Brendan was fantastic, kept me calm when I was worried and explained everything really well whilst having a brilliant sense of humor which kept me going even when I made mistakes. I couldn't have asked for a better person to teach me to drive. Will miss our lessons together.

I couldn't have asked for a better driving instructor than John. His calm demeanor and patient approach made learning to drive a breeze. He tailored each lesson to my needs and skill level, ensuring I gained confidence on the road. With his expert guidance, I passed my driving test on the first try. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a top-notch driving instructor. Five stars all the way!

I can not thank Gareth enough!! I wasn’t sure what to expect going into an intensive course after not doing any driving or lessons for 2 years. At the start of the week I felt so anxious that I wasn’t going to be ready for the test. He never made me feel under pressure when I made a mistake and with his help I passed my test first time after 5 days, which was an amazing feeling. I went from feeling anxious at the thought of driving to honestly enjoying it. Highly recommend to anyone considering an intensive course as it really made a huge difference to my confidence! Will definitely be back with Gareth to tackle the motorways!

Dan used Kevin as he had been my daughter's instructor too. Kevin is a superb instructor. He's been so supportive and accommodating, going out of his way to provide his car for the first test, even on his day off. Kevin is obviously very patient and built a great relationship with Dan. We'd recommend Kevin to every learner, and I have done over the last 7 years! Thanks so much Kevin, we really appreciate all your help and support. Best wishes

I recently had the pleasure of taking driving lessons with Timothy Cooke from Acclaim Driving Institute and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, Timothy demonstrated a level of professionalism, patience, and expertise that exceeded my expectations. I appreciated his calming demeanor and reassuring attitude. He took the time to understand my specific concerns and tailored the lessons to address my individual needs. I highly recommend Timothy to anyone in search of a top-notch driving instructor.Thank you Timothy and the acclaim team for all the help!

I can highly recommend learning to drive with Acclaim. The whole process was incredibly easy with kind and professional admin staff available for any questions you may have. I was instructed by Andrew, who is very patient and knowledgeable. I never at any point felt pressured or worried about making mistakes, as he had total confidence in my ability whilst learning. I passed first time and was very satisfied with the whole process. Thanks guys!
