Learn the right way
Alban
Before taking lessons at Parkside I had tried two different instructors with poor results and feared that I may by one of those long suffering ‘non-driving’ adults. After two lessons with John I had surpassed anything I had learned in my previous instructions and began to ‘believe’. He is patient, relaxed but also a true professional who wants to ensure that his students are driving correctly, confidently and safely.
I would have no hesitation in recommending John to anyone who is interested in learning to drive the right way and by way of endorsement I recently attempted my driving test for the first time….and passed! Thanks John!
Brilliant

I had already tried other instructors before finding John. He is easily the best (and most patient) instructor I have used. Within a few lessons, I was driving my own car and beginning to feel confident on the road, I could not recommend John highly enough. His attention to safety and careful driving remains with you after every lesson. Excellent.
Excellent

I had never even sat in the driver’s side of a car before I took lessons with John. He thought me everything in an easy manner with common sense advice. He remained very patient which help as I was an extremely nervous driver. He managed to explain to me in a style I understood. His safe & careful driving has stayed with me. I passed my test first time and I would strongly recommend Parkside.
First Class Instruction

I found John to be an excellent and patient instructor, his professionalism and easy manner made the whole experience stress free and a lot easier than I imagined. John’s common sense advice and instruction style make him an excellent choice for anyone and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.
Highly Recommended!

I came to John with a full licence but without driving for 8 years. Probably the worst combination for any instructor, I’d been taught by someone else, had picked up my own bad habits, and had not driven for ages! I was so impressed with the patience, advice and common sense approach that John has which got me back driving.
Great Instructor
Debbie
I had a couple of lessons and pre-tests with John. He made me feel at ease even though I was an inexperienced driver. I felt my driving and confidence improved greatly after each lesson with him. He made some valid judgements on my driving and thanks to him, I passed my test.
Parkside = 5 stars

John is an excellent instructor who really helped put my nerves at ease when I first started driving. I found his teaching style very effective and I felt it was very easy to learn from him. He is also very professional. I faced different tasks each week while driving and really enjoyed learning to drive. Thanks to John I now feel competent and confident on the road. I would strongly recommend Parkside to anyone learning to drive, especially if they are just starting out and are nervous.
