Phillip Harvey was my instructor, an amazing role model and teacher, furthermore he helped me pass within 4-5 months. He can help those at any level whether it may be beginners or those experienced learners like myself; to get back behind the wheel after 2 years.

I recently passed my test with Robyn Phillips and I highly recommend her as an instructor. I didn't expect to pass so quickly but she is a fantastic teacher. Robyn was super patient in her teaching method. I passed my test but can also say that I am now confident with driving, something I've not experienced before.

I highly recommend Robyn Philips as a driving instructor! Robyn was my second driving instructor and I am so glad that I swapped to her. She is kind, calm and was integral to building my driving confidence, both for the test and for driving at home. I looked forward to my lesson each week! I passed first time which was absolutely down to the excellent advice of Robyn. Thank you so much!
