EXCELLENT Based on 5 reviews Posted on Just SammyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jan is such a great instructor! Super chill, patient, and really good at explaining things in a way that makes sense. He made learning to drive way less stressful, and I felt totally ready for my test. Definitely recommend him to anyone learning to drive!Posted on Molly AshmeadeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'd highly recommend Ian as an instructor! After several failed tests in previous years and with quite a lot of anxiety around driving I found Ian and he really helped give me the confidence I needed. He was super patient with me when I had blips and was really good at explaining things. Thanks to Ian I gained a lot of confidence in my driving capabilities which meant that I was able to pass my test and helped me feel ready to get on the road on my own. If you're looking for a patient, friendly instructor I can't recommend Ian enough!Posted on Stephaine WhitewayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very friendly and a relaxed learning environmentPosted on Natalie McginnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I struggle with my ADHD badly, so on my first lesson I expected to be very anxious behind the wheel. But Ian made me feel confident in myself and worked with me in a way that suited ME as an individual! I feel like he is by far THE BEST driving instructor I’ve had! I’d highly recommend using Ian to pass your driving test, 100%!Posted on Tibor .SoltészTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ian, is very patient I feel comfortable. He communicates in a way that works for me so I never feel under pressure ,we always have a good atmosphere in the car. Highly recommend.

Q&A
The number of lessons varies for each learner. On average, most people need around 40-50 hours of professional instruction combined with private practice. However, some learn faster and others take longer – we'll tailor your learning plan to your individual progress.
Yes! You'll take your driving test in the same car you've been learning in. This helps you feel comfortable and confident on test day. The car is fully insured and meets all DVSA requirements.
You can book your driving test yourself through the DVSA website, or I can guide you through the process. I'll help you decide when you're ready to take the test and advise on the best times to book for the Dunfermline test centre.
Please provide at least 24 hours notice for cancellations to avoid being charged. Emergencies and illness are understood – just let me know as soon as possible. Late cancellations or no-shows may be charged in full.
I teach in a manual car. Learning in a manual gives you more flexibility as you can drive both manual and automatic vehicles once you pass. If you specifically need automatic lessons, please get in touch to discuss options.
Absolutely! Many of my students start out feeling nervous, and I specialize in patient, calm instruction. We'll take things at your pace, build your confidence gradually, and ensure you feel comfortable before moving on to new skills.
Yes , of course . ill provide you with free theory test app pro to practice for theory and help you to get ready, as well as me keeping track on your progress.
