John was an outstanding instructor for me, and I’m so pleased that I found him to teach me to drive. Not once throughout all of my lessons did I ever feel pressured or out of my depth, John teaches in a genuine and efficient way and became a friend who was really easy to get along with, making all the lessons fun and stress-free. Thanks John!

Thanet Local Children’s Partnership Group are excited to be working with the Community Driving school who are delivering this innovative approach to supporting our young people getting back into work and training.
Having had the opportunity to access a similar scheme myself twenty years ago in the West Midlands I can testify that not only did this open up the job market for me but also gave me a sense of achievement and independence which we want to share with our young people.
We would like to thank John for helping our young people access this opportunity.

An amazing driving instructor: Incredibly patient, great at explaining things and just a really nice guy that’s easy to get on with (which helps a lot!). Couldn’t have passed without him!

I am writing this as my son Jack is not on Facebook. John is one of the most genuine, calming, friendly and funny people you could ever meet. He was recommended to us as an instructor and he is such a positive influence to nervous learners. We are so pleased to have met John and are proud to now call him a family friend. Oh! and Jack passed his test yesterday – Thank you John!!

The change in “A” over the past few months is incredible… He has handed out his CV and has opened up about his experiences… He has more belief in himself & is starting to see a positive future and I believe this is down to our partnership.

Couldn’t ask for more. Always incredibly patient and clear in his instruction, it was a pleasure to be taught by John. With his great instruction I passed first time, offering various personally adapted methods to ensure I could do as well as possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend John for any one looking for an instructor and am very glad to have gotten to know him. The easiest 5/5 I’ve ever given, thanks John.
