Martin

Martin started teaching my daughter last year and although she was extremely nervous, she walked back in after her first lesson and was very happy, Martin is patient, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He was able to work lessons around my daughter’s college and work to suit her timetable. Any questions she had Martin was only a message away. I would highly recommend Martin for anyone looking to either start lessons or take up lessons again.

Martin has been an absolutely fantastic driving instructor for my daughter. When she started lessons, she was very anxious, but thanks to Martin’s incredible patience, calm approach, and clear teaching, her confidence grew with every session. He explained things so well and always made sure she felt supported and safe. Thanks to him, she passed first time and is now a confident and capable driver. We’re so grateful for his help — I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and kind instructor!

@martin Craig England

@martin Craig England. Thanks for supporting Jack through his relatively brief journey to become a fully fledged driver. Just 2 months of lessons and he passed with 3 minors. Well done Jack and the highly recommended @martin Craig England .

Martin England - Garforth Kippax & Castleford

Currently learning with Martin and so far I’m very happy with his service,was very worried going into driving that ide feel a lot of pressure and anxiety from my instructor, but Martin has let me go at my own pace while pushing me to try new things when he felt I was ready to do so. Couldn’t ask for a better instructor,keep it up !

Simon was the best instructor!

Passed my driving test with Simon Hills after 9 months of lessons. I’ve had a few driving instructors in my time and none have compared to Simon. I started as an anxious learner as I had, had bad experiences in the past. Simon was very professional, patient, made me feel at ease and taught me how to drive properly. We had many laughs along the way and I learnt new things in every lesson. I now feel confident on the roads and I will be forever grateful for all Simon has taught me, he really has changed my life. I will miss our driving lessons. I strongly recommend him to anyone looking to do lessons in the future.

Martin England is a great instructor

I was really nervous about driving because I was worried about whether my instructor would shout at me if I made a mistake. Martin England is the complete opposite-he's very patient and makes you feel very comfortable. Love having my driving lessons!

I recently started driving lessons with Martin and I am enjoying learning. The lessons are well structured and at the right pace. Martin is a good teacher and gives good feedback and encouragement throughout each lesson.

Awful experience

Awful experience with Learn Driving UK. I was told 1 day before my first lesson that my instructor had retired, and that was only because I reached out to him. I was placed on a waiting list for over 7 months after that and had no contact from them. After realising I wasn't going to hear anything from them, I had to request a refund 3 times before it was issued. I went with another driving school, got a lesson within 3 weeks and passed within 6 months - I'd still have been waiting for my first lesson if I'd stayed with LDUK!

Thank you for your review. There are always two sides to every story. We are sorry your experience with us wasn’t good, it’s not the service we normally provide. It’s out of our control if an instructor decides to retire. We did try to help as much as we could.

I needed some refresher driving lessons…

I needed some refresher driving lessons and Joe was recommended to me. He was so calm and reassuring especially as I hadn't driven for so long and I was feeling a bit nervous. He listened to my needs and helped me fully overcome my fear of roundabouts! Joe boosted my confidence by talking me through anything I was unsure of and was very clear with feedback. I am so appreciative of his help and very much enjoyed my lessons so thank you very much!

No test no money back

Never let me do my test. Was offered to come back and pay it in full again no thanks. Will take your money not the best of companies. The instructor said I would get a refund on that . Then. Office had other ideas no intention at all whatsoever of giving me it back: couldn’t really afford it . Nothing I can do lost money I suppose . I will never go back or recommend

For an American living in the UK

For an American living in the UK, driving can be a bit daunting. After research on the net, I found LDUK and happy that I did so. From the moment I phoned, to the last lesson, I can say I have never met such a professional team until now. The LDUK team are the type of folks that are there for you, and they make you feel welcome throughout the whole process! I highly recommend them.

Impossible to speak to anyone

My family purchased a number of vouchers for my son's 18th birthday. Despite numerous calls, I am still waiting on one of the vouchers to be sent (some 4 weeks later), all that was required was correction of an email address. We are now on call no. 5 to try to rectify it. Even when I just wanted to book a lesson, I get processed by a call centre with the promise of a call-back. Two full days later, I have had to call again to remind them I'm still waiting. Very poor customer experience - I would definitely not have used this company if I had known about the lack of responsiveness.

Hi, I am sorry you feel you had a bad service. Like I always say there are always two sides to every story. We feel we went above and beyond whilst trying to sort out the fact that your email would not accept our vouchers and Aimee even sent you one out by post. We responded every time you messaged or rang.

I have been driving with LDUK and Sue…

I have been driving with LDUK and Sue for around 30hrs worth of training now and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I consider myself a fast learner and good pupil; Sue has tested my abilities with every drive and we have covered so many aspects of driving especially safety which other driving schools over look somewhat. Sue gives honest feedback and praise where necessary I can't imagine using another driving school. I will keep these good habits on the road for a long time I'm positive of it. Thanks LDUK

Best driving school

Best driving school. My instructor was Alex Evans who sadly passed away. I cannot thank enough for the guidance and support from my instructor.
He raised my confidence so much more than any other instructor and put me at ease behind the wheel. Not only this but he was genuinely a magnificent person. 👍
