Rob is the Man!!

I had an outstanding experience with Rob Watts my driving instructor. His patience, professionalism, and expert knowledge made all the difference in helping me pass my driving test on the first try!!! Rob tailored each lesson to my needs, ensuring I felt confident and prepared every step of the way. His clear instructions, calm demeanor, and supportive feedback created a positive learning environment. I even received amazing feedback from the examiner that I had one of the highest standard driving she had observed in a long time, that was all down to Rob’s teaching.
I highly recommend Rob Watts to anyone looking to learn how to drive safely and effectively. He’s a sound guy!
Thank you for your exceptional guidance!

Thankyou Rob!!!

Passed my driving test today with zero faults! Iv got to thank rob for he’s great teaching and encouragement he’s a top tier instructor, helped me build my confidence back up I cannot recommend him enough he’s genuine and calming. He’s reliable, always on time for lessons very professional and knowledgeable. Iv had 3 pervious instructors and untold lessons maybe around 30 hours before I had Rob and I had picked up so many bad habits and I had to put in the hours again to correct if I had Rob from the start I would of only probably had half the lessons Iv had and not wasted so money! Rob knows what he’s talking about and genuinely wants to see you pass and Is happy for you when you do so if he advises you to have more lessons before your test to make sure everything’s on point then I recommend you do it’s worth it when you pass! Thanks again Rob it’s been a pleasure.

Rob is your guy

After few months of trial with few instructors , I can confidently say I found the one ! With Rob , it was pretty much easy from the get go, Rob understood my needs and tailor fit the classes around it . If there was a technique I was familiar with he wouldn’t try to correct it u less it had a negative impact on the test .

I highly recommend Rob to everyone . He is patient , understanding, he listens to your needs and he is quite good at increasing your self confidence

Strongly recommend Rob

Took me from no driving experience at all to passing my test first time. Rob was a great instructor, taking time to explain and guide me through driving theory and practical. He made lessons personally tailored to your learning pace and took the time and patience to guide me to being test ready. I’ve throughly enjoyed my lessons with Rob and can only recommend him to anyone looking to pass their driving test.

Learning to drive was a journey…

Learning to drive was a journey very much out of my comfort zone but I really wanted to finally do this. After not managing to handle manual driving as fast as I wanted, my previous instructor recommended Rob for automatic. I was really happy that Rob was always punctual, flexible,took time to talk about my concerns and questions, gave very good and useful advice, methodical approach, and positive outlook. In my learning process, I had a lot of times where I did not know why I cannot do a manoeuvre correctly in the end or position my car and felt frustrated but Rob encouraged me to talk and tried different methods to understand me and eventually I really improved both my driving and manoeuvres. I felt his support throughout and it helped me gain confidence and pass successfully at my first attempt today. Thank you!!

The best instructor in the area

Rob took me on in October 2023 after I had had a bad experience with a previous instructor. Rob from the very start was very patient, a very calming presence as well as being incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of driving and the test itself. Rob tailored every lesson around myself and my level, always checking my confidence level and offering the right amount of support at the right times. By February 2024 I had passed my test on the first attempt thanks to Rob's guidance. I would recommend Rob to everyone will be using Rob again for my children and partner. Thank you Rob!

Rob is a brilliant driving instructor.

Rob is a brilliant driving instructor.

Having had two pervious driving instructions, one very unattentive (taking calls during my lesson) and the other was so negative I ended up dreading my lesson. I wish I had found Rob sooner.

Rob is professional, kind and patient. Rob genuinely wants me to be a safe competent driver and explains things without lecturing. Rob is a great teacher who gives me all the tools I need to be independent when driving alone.

If you want a reliable, genuine driving instructor Rob is your man.
