I started driving with Tony and Drivetime after failing my test 2 years ago. I noticed how I felt considerably more confident in my driving which is through Tony's help and persistence. I've enjoyed my lessons with Tony and he ensured I was fully prepared for the test. Spending the day of my test driving was the most helpful way of ensuring I drove to my best ability and passed. Thanks again Tony. Charlotte Crossley

I  started taking lessons with Tony after failing two driving tests 5 years earlier with a different instructor. After having lessons with Tony I found his way of teaching was great and helped me over come my previous fears. Tony is very patient, easy going and helpful. He cares about his students and he wants you to do well. After having my lessons with Tony I managed to pass my driving test on the first attempt with with only 1 fault. He is a great driving instructor and I am very pleased to have had him as my teacher. I couldn't have done this without him. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thank you very much Tony!!!

I’ve worked with another instructor before having lessons with Tony and Frank from Drivetime UK, and the difference is huge. Polite, patient and professional while still always retaining a sense of humour, lessons with them were always something enjoyable rather than a chore like I’d known before! They’re not just interested in ticking the boxes to get you to test standard, they genuinely want to make people good drivers, and for people to really enjoy driving rather than it being stressful, boring or just “something you have to do”. After having both Tony and Frank as Instructors, I seriously can’t recommend either of them enough. Thanks again guys, you’ve been absolutely brilliant.

After several months of not being behind the steering wheel, I realised that learning to drive was starting to become an increasing challenge. I had finished University with great difficulty and knew how vital it was to pass my driving test. It was going to be my 5th driving instructor and I was starting to believe that driving a car was not the path for me. So I researched, found DriveTime UK and decided to get in touch. My call was received by Tony and after one phone call I instantly felt eager to start again.
I met Frank Walsh in March 2014 and instantly knew we were going to work very well together. Frank made me feel at ease and comfortable which was essential for me as I believe a relaxed environment was necessary in order for me to learn effectively. Within the first few lessons I knew Frank was committed. He wanted me to get that pass as much as I did and together we were a team!
There was never a dull day, and those days where things were not brilliant and I didn't get each manoeuvre right. Frank reassured me always. He never let me feel like I was disappointing him and most importantly, I was not disappointing myself. Each challenge was a learning curve and I was always reminded.
After a few driving lessons it became apparent that I was struggling in more areas than others. It was starting to get frustrating and I explained to Frank that I had been diagnosed with a condition called Dyspraxia which is a form of developmental coordination disorder. For myself, it affected my memory and how I processed information.
Within hours after our lesson Frank took the time out was able to get in touch with the right people who specialised in this condition and was able to customise his teaching to my individual learning needs and was the only driving instructor in the 3 years of my learning that was able to do that. Instantly I felt a massive change and was remembering and processing information so much better.

My confidence grew each lesson and I was starting to feel like a safe and competent driver. Frank gave me the ability to believe in myself and that I can do it with the right attitude. Not long after meeting Frank I was able to book my test and have passed my driving test. My life has changed so much already since passing. Frank's goal was not to just pass your test, it was to learn the skills to drive safely for a lifetime and not only was Frank a driving instructor, he became a great friend and I will be forever grateful for all his hard work in helping me achieve my goals

"I am pleased to say I've passed my driving test first time with Tony at Drivetime UK, I would recommend any family or friends to do their driving with Tony or Frank at Drivetime UK, they are both professional, pleasant and most of all (get the job done!)"

Passed first time!!! with 3 minor faults. Tony was my instructor and since day one provided a professional but friendly service that allowed me to learn with ease, Thanks to Drivetime UK and Tony! 

Thank you Tony for helping me pass my driving test. I will be recommending you to everyone I know,who wants to pass there driving test. Absolutely the best driving instructor . Very relaxed style of teaching which, I feel, made me succeed.

Thank you again

I'm not the easiest person to teach. I like figuring things out myself and feel patronised or embarrassed when my mistakes are pointed out! Franks teaching style is great though. He is very calm, patient, clear, treats you like an adult and has a sense of humour too! No matter what mistakes you make, he helps you to just learn from them and move on. I highly recommend anyone looking for lessons to talk to Frank. Thanks a bunch Frank, been driving 4 days and already my life has changed!

My name is Ruth, I passed my test today. I want thank my wonderful instructor Frank on giving me the confidence I needed to learn how to drive. I will recommend him to anyone wanting to lean how to drive. He's an amazing person, thanks very much Frank.

Passed my test with 3 minors! Definitely recommend Tony, and Drivetime UK, experienced friendly Instructor knows his stuff!

Thank you Tony for helping me pass my driving test. Your relaxed style definitely helped me to learn. You were also very flexible in fitting in my lessons around times that suited me. Thanks again for your help.

Tony made learning to drive a fun and easy experience! He helped me to progress efficiently which led to me becoming a confident driver and passed my test first time! I would recommend Tony and Drivetime uk to anyone wanting to learn to drive

" Having Frank as my instructor was an absolute blast! Not only does he teach you the theory, but he makes you question why things are done the way they're done, so it sticks in your memory better. He also really boosted my confidence in driving at speed on A roads and motorways, when before I was too keen to just go at a crawl! I happily recommend him to anybody I know who may wish to learn to drive".

Having failed my first practical test with a previous instructor; I would like to thank Frank who helped me pass my second attempt within 4 weeks. Once again thank you Frank for making it possible!!!

"A massive thank you to my Instructor Tony for making my learning to drive enjoyable and for helping me to pass the first time! Whilst studying Master of Law and Practice, Tony kept his dairy flexible to fit my lessons in, which suited me. His methods of teaching are very pleasant, as Tony paid attention to every action I made in the car. He constantly was ensuring I was developing to be a qualified driver. I have and would recommend Tony."

After years and 2 failed attempts with my previous instructor, I would like to thank Tony for his patient and professional ways of getting me through my test.
Adele Eaton

I'm so thankful I chose Drivetime to learn to drive. Frank my instructor is a guy who tailors the lesson to each persons needs. He's somebody who you can learn with & have laugh with at the same time. I would recommend Frank to anybody just starting out or even wanting to change instructors. He's an amazing person, thank you Frank!

I'd like to thank My wonderful driving instructor Tony on giving me the confidence I needed to learn how to drive.

Megan Dunne

Sorry about the delay in reviewing. I passed my test on feb 10th 2014. I had 6 hours training with Frank and i would recommend himself and this driving school to anyone I know looking to pass their test. Frank was an excellent instructor who not only taught me everything I needed to know to get me up to scratch.. But did it in a way where I still felt human, relaxed, like I'd known him for years. I would like to thank Frank for getting me through my test and I am very grateful . As I previously said couldn't have asked for a better tutor and anyone reading this page need look no further as these guys are the instructors for you.. world class....good luck guys....David Mcloughlin

'Frank took my basic knowledge of working a car and applied it to driving in England and the rules of the road. Frank is the only driving Instructor I've ever had, and I'm glad I stuck with him. I now feel I'm ready and confident enough to travel Europe. I enjoyed my lessons, but glad I dont have to have another! Thanks!' Tom

I really enjoyed my time learning to drive with Drive Time UK and would recommend them to anyone who is thinking of learning to drive. The patience and knowledge of Tony my Instructor was instrumental in me passing my driving test.

Georgina Lawton

"I would like to thank Tony and Drivetime UK for enabling me to pass first time today. I can guarantee, I wouldn't have passed with only two minors if it wasn't for Tony's perseverance and expert knowledge. I was quickly made to feel confident about driving and was well prepared by the time the day of my test arrived. Reflecting upon each lesson and constantly discussing improvements allowed for me to continually progress with every drive. I couldn't recommend DrivetimeUK or Tony enough!"
Hannah Wilson

I would highly recommend Drivetime uk after passing my test with Frank ... I am so pleased that I passed both my theory and practical test first time and I could not have done it without the support from Frank, as he was so patient with me. He gave me so much confidence, Frank took the time to make sure I felt I could handle any situation on the roads with constant reassurance which is so important when learning something new . I am so grateful. Such a friendly, professional and caring person which made my lesson such an enjoyable experience ... I will miss my lessons but I'm so chuffed I passed my test. Thank you so much Frank ... see you on the road

Chloe Lees

A massive thanks to Tony for teaching to me to drive! Made me feel so at ease and calm in the lessons, to give me the confidence I needed to do it, it also helped as he gives you time to understand things and explaining things to you, how you understand them best. The packages they do are really worth it as well. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks again Tony
Kara Boulter

Most importantly he always gives you the correct advice-where your going OK and where you need to concentrate a bit more, that really helps! Its been a enjoyable experience.

I had a great time learning to drive with Frank, much nicer and patient then my previous instructor. Thanks for helping me pass my driving test!

I was recommended to Drivetime by someone who passed on their first attempt with Frank and I'm glad I was. Every lesson was worth while in not only learning to drive and preparing for test but also for learning to drive in real life situations. I'd recommend Frank to anyone.

 I would like to thank Tony at Drivetime UK, for giving me the confidence to enjoy my lessons as well as learn so fast, I previous lessons with other instructors and with Tony I only had 10 hours, and passed my tests first time, and I am now happy and confident to be on the road. I would highly recommend them. x

Tony from Drivetime UK came highly recommended by a family friend that passed their driving test first time with him. Tony is very helpful, friendly and was there for me every step of the way. I passed my driving test first time and I owe it all to Tony and Drivetime UK. Big thank you Tony and I will be recommending him to family and friends.

After failing my practical driving test twice previously, I decided to contact Tony at DriveTime UK and was pleased with what he had too offer, the lessons we're very much helpful and was comfortable and after only 8 hours with Tony, I went on to pass my test, third time lucky, I recommend this company and Tony himself to anyone because he was the reason I passed, thank you mate.

" Frank is an amazing Instructor, who treats you with respect, gives you confidence and helps you to clear your mind of what was or will be, to see only the task that needs to be done to ensure you pass your test. Very patient, you are missing out if you don't use this Instructor. Thank you Frank, you will be missed."

" I approached my first lesson with much apprehension. By the end of the first lesson I felt very excited about the next few. Frank is very methodical and encourages independent thinking by explaining everything from the fundamentals. I truly believed and finally understood a lot of the things that were just 'routine'. Thank you Frank for your firm but warm approach. Thank you also for being patient and never making me feel inadequate even when I did all those stupid things! Your relaxed manner helped the morning of the 'assessment' be very calm and I truly felt ready. ....it all felt like a dream at the end of it when you stood by with your big smile as the examiner said 'Congratulations!'.....passed my test at the first attempt! Thank you for the professional and                                                                      truly personalised experience."

" Frank, I would like to say thank you again! You were brilliant and patient with me. I will definitley recommend you to others, take care. "

"I would highly recommend learning to drive with Frank and Drivetime to anyone. Having experienced poor instructors before, it was refreshing to learn from someone very professional, patient and informative. Not only does Frank prepare you for the test but also for driving on all types of road which helped my confidence a lot"

'I wouldn't have been able to pass my driving test in such a short time if it hadn't been for Tony's patient approach and his expert knowledge Thanks Tony!'

"Would like to say a massive thank you to Tony. For his patience and building up my confidence in my driving. Due to this I passed first time. (wayhay!!). Can't say thank you enough and would recommend Drivetime UK to anyone who is learning to drive."

"I'd like to thank Frank for his support, his help and his teaching for allowing to me pass my Driving test. He showed. huge amounts of patience during the constant silly errors that I made in my lessons and he helped aid me to become a better driver.
Frank made the intense driving course fun, interesting and challenging.
I have enjoyed myself thoroughly and am glad I have made a friend in Frank. I would definately recommend drivetime uk to anyone thinking of passing their test because of the quality of teaching and the fact that they're not looking to make extra money out of their clients.
On my first lesson Frank told me I needed 25 lessons and when I passed my driving I test I had exactly.... 25 lessons
Thankyou once again and I hope you have success helping many more people become drivers."

" Thanks Frank for teaching me how to drive, couldn't have done it without you."

"I learned to drive with Frank from Drivetime uk, I was reassured by his calm and professional approach to teaching. I learned everything I needed to know to pass my test and be a competent driver whilst also being able to relax and enjoy my lessons more than I had with previous instructors. I have recommended Drivetime uk to several of my friends who are currently learning to drive".

"I would highly recommend anybody who is starting their lessons to go with Drivetime uk, Tony was an excellent instructor and its due to his patience and way of learning that helped me gain my confidence and pass my test thank you."

"I strongly recommend going with Drivetime - as a latecomer to driving I was nervous about learning but Frank soon put me at ease. As well as reassuring me he let me develop at my own pace and feel involved in planning the lessons. At the end of each lesson he went through any problems I'd had and gave me tips on how to resolve them which seemed to do the trick the following week. I really enjoyed the lessons and looked forward to them each week. Frank is a great teacher and a good laugh too. I passed on the first attempt with only two minor faults which only goes to show how well he taught me!

"Frank is the best Instructor ever he's so patient and knows how to find the right learning style for you. He takes time to explain everything and gives you the option to go over anything you dont feel confident with as many times as you like and he makes you feel at ease with your surroundings. He really knows how to have a laugh and isn't always serious. He gets to know you and eventually you feel like your just going for a drive with a friend :) I would recommend Frank to everyone and will miss having him as an  Instructor even when you feel like you can't do something he shows you that you can."

"Thanks Frank for all the time and effort you put in with each of my lessons, I really appreciate everything all the pushing you did for me to pass. So glad I've passed and I don't think I would of passed with only 2 minors with another instructor. You never lost your temper with me and always let me have time out if I was struggling and getting frustrated. Thank you for everything I'll miss working with you." :) Leoni Grenfell

"I would like to say a massive thank you to Tony and Drivetime UK on passing my driving test first time. I would highly recommend Tony and Drivetime UK to anybody that wants to learn to drive" Richard Clark

"Learning to drive felt scary at first but Frank kept me calm and helped me to keep my nerve. When I made mistakes, we would talk about why I wasn't right and go around and practise it again. I am a perfectionist so this approach worked in my favour. Without Frank I wouldn't have the confidence that I do now and I'd like to thank him for his patience :)." Joanna
