Best!

I can’t recommend this driving school highly enough! Thanks to the incredible support and expert teaching from Robbie, I passed my practical test first time 🎉
From the very first lesson, Robbie was patient, professional, and really encouraging. He explained everything clearly, helped me build confidence on the road, and made sure I fully understood not just how to pass the test, but how to drive safely and independently. Every lesson was well-structured and focused on improving my weak points without ever making me feel pressured.
From Reece!

Amazing driving school

I have really enjoyed learning to drive with Robbie. I had never driven a car prior and Robbie taught be everything from the basics and more complex stuff. He was patient, thorough and explained everything really well and in a way I would understand. There was a few moments of high anxiety at the start and he provided a calming presence that eased my nerves as well as lots of reassurance. If it wasn't for Robbie I wouldn't have passed first time. I really am going to miss him. I really recommend this driving school!

The perfect instructor!

My daughter had Michelle as her instructor and we could not be more grateful to her. Michelle, who is an anxiety specialist, was the perfect instructor for my daughter - calm, patient and kind. We were absolutely delighted when my daughter recently passed her test, first time with just 3 minors - she could not have done it without Michelle!

I had a great experience learning with Raja and passed the first time. He’s very professional, experienced, and pays close attention to detail. His lessons were structured and focused and his standard is higher than the exam which made the exam easy for me. He also gave me the confidence I needed to become a safe driver. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to drive the right way.

Highly recommended!

Robbie was my driving instructor, and I can’t recommend him enough. He’s incredibly experienced and has a calm, patient approach to teaching that really helped ease my nerves. In fact, he believed in my abilities more than I did, and that gave me the confidence I needed to drive safely.

I already knew how to drive, but I’d never felt comfortable in traffic—until I started lessons with Robbie. Thanks to his guidance, I now drive confidently and without stress. He’s also very flexible with scheduling and always arrives early, making sure we get the most out of every 2-hour lesson.

I'm truly grateful for his support, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive instructor.

Exceptional Instructor

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor. From day one, Michelle inspired me with her calm, positive approach and gave me the confidence I never thought I’d have behind the wheel. Her patience is truly unmatched! she never rushes, never judges, and always takes the time to explain things in a way that makes sense.

What sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares about her students. She goes above and beyond, tailoring each lesson to what you personally need, and celebrating even the smallest wins along the way. Learning to drive can be nerve wracking, but with her support and encouragement, it felt like an achievable goal every step of the journey.

If you’re looking for someone who is professional, kind, and dedicated and who will inspire confidence no matter where you start, Michelle is the perfect instructor. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Thankyou Michelle ☺️

I passed first time with Michelle! She was fantastic the whole way through, so incredibly kind and patient - nothing was ever too much trouble and she would happily go over things as many times as needed! I felt so comfortable, supported, and encouraged during every lesson. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or instructor 😊 Thank you so much!

Heavily Recommend!

A huge thanks to Michelle as she was wonderful! She was patient and catered to my driving style from day one. She even helped me book my driving lesson and showed me exactly where I went wrong every time. I heavily recommend Steer We Go as they helped me with a first time pass.

ADI Raja helped to pass Driving test on the first go

Raja was an excellent instructor who helped me to pass the driving test on the first go. The driving test was exactly a mirror copy of what Raja has taught and the examiner covered each and every aspects that Raja was stressing on. Among many others who only think of money and business, Raja is so friendly, polite, honest and always think to improve learner driver’s skills to enable them to pass their test. He has his own well versed driving and maneuver techniques which will definitely help for the test. He has thorough knowledge on local roads and routes and he is able to provide tailor made lessons for all levels of learner drivers. I can tell this service and Raja as your driving instructor is a sure thing and your one stop to pass your driving test…Thanks again to Raja…

I'm thrilled to share that I passed my driving test today with Raja as my instructor! I started as a complete beginner, and learning with him has been a genuinely positive experience. Raja explained everything clearly and patiently, always offering support and encouragement. Throughout our lessons, I felt safe, heard, and gradually more confident behind the wheel. I'm extremely grateful to him for guiding me every step of the way and helping me become a safe and independent driver.

Distressing Experience with RAJA

I had a driving lesson with Raja on 13th June 2025, including my first attempt at the Colchester magic roundabout. Unfortunately, the experience was distressing. Raja repeatedly used abusive language—including shouting —which made me feel extremely uncomfortable and discouraged.

No learner should be spoken to this way, especially when trying to build confidence on the road. I chose to end the lessons immediately. Although my unused lesson fee was refunded after I requested it, the emotional impact of that session was significant.

I do not recommend Raja to anyone seeking a respectful and supportive learning environment.

Thank you

Today, i passed my driving test with RAJA of steer we go driving school. I have some worst experience before with my previous driving instructor from another driving school. Raja saved the day. He is absolutely professional, patient and ensures to fine tune your areas of weaknesses. I have been lucky to have him as my instructor and thankful to him for transforming me into a confident driver on the road. I have passed my exam in first attempt and truly enjoyed the entire experience of learning with him. You can really feel his urge and passion to teach you to drive safely and properly. He corrects you in a way that you understand. To steer we go driving, thank you! And to Raja, i owe you bigtime!
