Accelerate Driving School

I have just passed my driving test today using Accelerate. My driving instructor, Jon, was instrumental in my passing. I’ve been through two different driving companies, and about 4 different instructors before I started lessons with Jon. I clearly had many struggles with those previous instructors that I didn't have here. My lessons were enjoyable, and everything was explained clearly and with patience. I went into my test with confidence and passed first time. I strongly recommend this c...

I must admit it has taken me a little while to decide how best to share my experience with Accelerate. Pete gave me an amazing experience with my automatic lessons, before I went to him I had serious anxiety around being behind the wheel of a car. Not only did he help me with my quality of driving; he also helped me manage my own anxiety and made driving just another facet of life.

I passed recently after a handful lessons with Jon. He was by far the best instructor I had of the three driving schools I tried. He's a brilliant instructor, always very clear and friendly.

He was always very professional and genuinely cares about your improvement rather than just the money for lessons. Daniel is direct and to the point but in a friend...

I know it’s easy to compliment your driving instructor once you’ve passed but I’ve had 3 in my life time. And honestly, Daniel James (SEAT) was amazing. Patient, but straight to the point, doesn’t beat around the bush, very professional, not trying to take your money and legitimately cares about improving you. Breaks everything down, instead of doing it all all at once which can be confusing. I started with him with 40 hours under my belt, after another 40 hours with him; I am 3 times the dri...
