By Sarah Wills on 3/4/2012 www.arrowdrivingschool.co.uk - “Calm, patient, clear and understanding!” That's how my experience with "Arrow Driving School" was ! - feeling comfortable in the car while learning was very important to me and that's exactly how it was. My instructor was clear, she explained the manoeuvres, in a clear way, so that I could easily grasp how to drive safely and have a clear understanding about the rules of the road.

By Doug on 22/8/2011Thank you John!! - Passed first time! Had lessons with John after learning a few years ago but never taking my test, he gave me so much confidence and the lessons were a joy! I'm sorry it had to end but thanks to Johns techniques, patience and humorous lessons (including the many references to "the current wife") I had the confidence to pass after waiting for so long! Thank you so much John!

By Simon Barlow on 16/8/2011Thank You John - Only John knows what a completely useless driver I was to start with. I was completely fearful and panicked but somehow John got me through it and I passed first time! John made the lessons enjoyable and gave me the gentle shove I needed to push my confidence and driving skills along. I would recommend John to anyone who wants to pass first time and be a good driver #-) Thanks John.

I immediately saw an improvement in my driving from the very first lesson with her. I was a nervous driver but Karen boosted my confidence which aided me to pass first time with 3 minors!She explained everything clearly and was incredibly encouraging when things got tough!I'd recommend her to anyone, she's brilliant!

By Laura Wood on 13/2/2011 NO MINORS! - Karen was a brilliant instructor. My driving began rapidly improving since beginning lessons with her, moving at a pace suitable for me from the basics through to the smaller details. It was her ability to encourage me and explain the basics at the start AND her eye for detail in my final lessons before my test that ensured that I am now a confident safe driver with no minors to my name! THANKYOU!

By Rachel on 11/6/2009 Arrow driving school - I would like to say many thanks to Chris Comer, he is an excellent driving instructor and got me through my test with very little minors(2). Arrow driving school I believe is second to none, they take time and effort in teaching you the skills and technique that you need to have in every day driving. I would recommend arrow driving school to anyone, pick arrow driving school and you will pass.

Karen was a great teacher and explained everything so that driving made sense and became easy. I only wish I had found Arrow earlier.
