Notts Driving School

Jim is a true master of his craft. He is professional, patient, and personable. I felt incredibly safe and respected under his instruction. His explanations are clear, he is excellent at diagnosing areas of improvement, and he gives you the confidence to do better. I particularly appreciated his use of technology. He uses a mobile app to help you keep track of your progress, and he uses a tablet during lessons to help explain practical driving theory. He also always gets the basics right: he is punctual, he maintains his car in good condition, and he keeps to his diary schedule. Im glad that I learnt to drive with Jim. I passed my test first time. Notts Driving School is worth every penny!

I would highly recommend Jim as a driving instructor to anyone! I had previously had lessons with another instructor and didn't enjoy my learning experience and decided to try again a few years later. I found Jim online and he replied promptly. He is very organised and fit me in every week for a two hour lesson. I looked forward to my driving lessons and I felt that each week I made improvements. Jim is very friendly and focusses on the positives and never makes you feel bad for your mistakes which really helped me with my confidence over time. He has some really good methods to help you to remember the manoeuvres too which I have since taught other people I know! In conclusion, choose Jim!

Avoid, lacks professionalism and commitment. We spent over 2k on lessons, our son failed his second test and we literally never heard from Jim again.

I am so over the moon to have passed my driving test yesterday! I came to Nottingham to start university having done a decent number of driving lessons in my home city. I am based in Sutton Bonington because of my course, and it was a nightmare trying to find an instructor that was available and would come out anywhere near SB. Jim came to the rescue and I started having lessons with him around August. He is so patient and calm, mixing genuine praise and encouragement with kindly delivered constructive feedback. Each week we picked something to work on and I quickly felt myself become really confident with little details I had struggled for weeks to grasp back home. The best thing about his teaching is that if I faced a lesson that I really struggled with, for example one week I struggled with the really windy, narrow and congested roads with lots of pedestrian crossings around West Bridgeford, he would take me back there the next week and wed work on what I found difficult again and again until I felt super super comfortable and confident about it. Although it was daunting to have to face something that I found scary, getting the chance to correct what I had done wrong and get lots of experience with Jim in the car means I am feeling all the better about driving on my own now. Jim is really fantastic. I really felt he was rooting for me the whole time. He is very genuine, down to earth cared about how I was doing every week and I looked forward to every lesson. Thank you Jim!!!
