After several years of riding a scooter and getting wet and cold. I decided to try to learn to drive. I contacted BDS who gave me Mike Joannou as my instructor. I had little confidence of my ability but Mike with his kindness and patience gave me the confidence to carry on. I cannot praise him enough for what he has done for me. He has changed my life for the better and I definitely can recommend him as a first class driving instructor.

Finally passed my driving test today & all thanks to the support and guidance from Mandy who is a fabulous instructor.
It had been more than a few years since I’d taken lessons so I decided to book a short intensive course and BDS came highly recommended and they did not disappoint! From my initial enquiry with Donna, to be being put in touch with my instructor Mandy, the communication was great and I had all my queries answered and before I knew it I was booked on the right course for me.
As an instructor Mandy was friendly and calm, and had a great way of explaining things to me when I was looking a little confused. Mandy would push me to get the best out of me and ensure that I was driving to the best of my ability which overall has helped me feel more confident on test day!
Thanks Mandy for everything, I will miss our lessons.
For anyone considering learning to drive, look no further than BDS and I’d 100% recommend Mandy as an instructor!! ????

Graham is a brilliant instructor, I would recommend him to family, friends and anyone :). He gave me the confidence I needed to pass my test, was flexible and a dedicated patient instructor. I passed my test with only 2 minors after an intense course over 4 days and it was worth every penny. A massive thank-you to graham and BDS too.

I would 100% recommend BDS to anyone, I'm so happy I chose them! I passed with my instructor Paul Tilling who was just fantastic, I couldn't have had a better instructor:) He was always incredibly supportive, helpful, kind and patient and never failed to make me feel at ease if I became nervous. He was such a laugh and really made me feel comfortable driving, I cannot thank him enough for everything he's done for me! Donna is also brilliantly efficient, professional and helpful and got me started straight away. I am so unbelievably happy and it was all thanks to Paul and BDS, thank you!
