My son has been coming to young driver for the past 5 years (2 hr lessons a year) this weekend he had his final lesson before turning 17, he completed the young driver course and was presented with a certificate! Everyone we have met has been amazing everything runs so smoothly and it’s given my son so much confidence and also homed in the importance of being a safe driver! A very special shout out to Myra who is an absolute gem, she had the pleasure of getting my son to where he is now (Edinburgh & Glasgow)

Our daughter (16) had a one hour experience today and absolutely loved it. So well organised from the start. Instructor was so patient with a very nervous driver and was really professional. Gave us as parents a full run down after the lesson on what she was working on. Would definitely recommend especially if you have quite a nervous child! (Old Trafford)

I recently had the pleasure of learning to drive with John twice and I couldn't be more grateful for his guidance. He created a comfortable and safe environment that made me feel at ease behind the wheel. John's patience and clear instructions helped me build my confidence significantly. He has a knack for breaking down complex maneuvers into manageable steps, making the learning process much smoother. What I appreciated most was his ability to tailor each lesson to my needs, focusing on areas where I needed improvement while also reinforcing my strengths. His calm demeanor and positive reinforcement kept me motivated, even when I faced challenges. I highly recommend him. (Edinburgh royal highland centre)

My granddaughter has just completed her young driver experience she was so excited, as she can’t wait to learn to drive. She is only 12 years old but her driving instructor Graham Leatherhead was full of praise for her saying she was a natural driver . He explained everything to her in such a manner it has now increased her enthusiasm tenfold and wants another lesson for her next birthday (Sheffield Utilita Stadium)

Our son had his first lesson today and his instructor was Julie. He absolutely loved it! Julie was lovely and made him feel at ease straightaway. The set up is brilliant, so organised and everything ran smoothly. We will definitely be back for more lessons, such a great idea and we are confident our son will be ready to drive before his 17th birthday. (Church Fenton)

Well done and loads of thanks to you all at Young Driver. My granddaughter has been taking lessons from YD over two years from time to time and always looked forward to the experiences. She is now just a few weeks from her driving test, having passed her theory several months ago. She is competently driving her own car and that of her instructor and feels confident in herself to succeed in losing her L plates. To all parents out there its the best gift ever to give your child to not only gain confidence in handling a vehicle but most importantly, in time, driving safely on our very busy and at times dangerous roads. Congratulations to YD for finding a way of putting such a big smile on the faces of so many of our children whilst teaching them the importance of road safety. Keep up the good work.

Young Driver have been fantastic from Ffyona doing all the booking admin, to Lucy who organised all 20 of our Young People quickly and efficiently making the morning run so smoothly, to the Drivers who really must have the patience of a saint, every one of our Explorers and Scouts came off the course beaming with smiles and have gained the beginnings of a new #skillsforlife Thank you all so much, and we hope to be seeing you all again soon!

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the last 2 years of lessons that my son has driven with you. He has had around 6 one hour lessons with you ending in the advanced course at Elvington just a couple of months ago. On the 3rd August he passed his driving test with no driving faults, just 10 weeks after he turned 17 and with just 18hrs of driving lessons with an instructor. Young Driver gave him the skills and confidence to take out on to the road and I have no doubt that your lessons contributed to his quick pass. His favourite venues were Haydock and of course the Elvington course with the extended straight track work. Special mention also to driving instructor Rob who Andrew only drove with once but he wished for Rob every time as he gave him a relaxed drive and lots of top tips for the road.

Our 11yr old Grandson Samuel (Sam) had his experience today at MK Dons in Milton Keynes and he was absolutely thrilled with the lesson. The whole team were very welcoming and his instructor was Sav who was absolutely amazing. Having purchased the optional SD card (highly recommended and good value) showing split screen, road and driver with audio and we were so impressed with how Sav explained everything to Sam in a really easy to understand manner. It wasn't a case of this is what you should do, there was full explanation of how the car works, and why you needed to do things a certain way to be a safe driver. Even during this short 30 minute lesson, he wouldn't allow anything that could become a "bad habit" later. Sam came away from the lesson full of confidence but fully aware of all the safety aspects too. Spot on Sav and thank you so much for giving Sam such a positive first experience driving. I'm sure he will be back on a bigger circuit as you suggested for a more in depth lesson. We could not recommend this more highly, a truly excellent present for any young person.
