Crystal Driving School

Thanks to Ballys patience and teaching skills, I was able to gain confidence in my driving abilities and pass the test. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to take up driving, especially if, like me, you are scared of it. He helped me feel at ease and take it one step at a time, he was very relaxed but at the same time very focused on each lesson. The lessons cover a lot of routes, so you can familiarise yourself with the roads before the test. Bally is a great instructor and will focus on teaching you driving as a skill, not just how to pass the test.

Thanks to Bally! The best instructor in Warwick area. He made me feel very comfortable and assured. I was not a very confident driver but he helped me pass my test! If you are looking for good instructor, go to him! Thanks for your assistance, Bally!

Sent an email querying about lessons but instead of receiving more information, I got the rudest one line response. On their website they list Coventry as one of their areas, but I'd noticed their learner cars operating in Kenilworth, so in my email I stated I live in Coventry but that I often visit Kenilworth so they knew I was flexible about where I could take the lessons. In their one line response they simply said, 'Do not cover Coventry'. Zero politeness. Apparently if you don't sound like their perfect student they discard their professionalism.

Do not want to be writing this review as I dont not like to complain but please take this as a warning when it comes to driving with Bally. Overall I had about 6-7 hours with the instructor, he was not friendly neither did he make me feel at ease with driving. He would simply wait in the passenger seat when picking up and tell me to move off Not even a hello, that is not a friendly person. He would say I was getting no where with my driving and that Im bad instead of encouraging me. I was forced to wear a mask whilst the instructor didnt so this affected my focusing on the road even more as I suffer with asthma. He would turn up in a different car each time so I was getting used to two cars, which is proven not to be good for learners. Answering texts and phone calls during lessons and angry if I cant get certain time off that suits him. Really cannot recommend this company.

I had over 40 lessons with Bally. I had lessons previously, he assessing Im 40%. Now Im 50%. There was extremely low progress. He wouldnt take the time to explain anything. I mean ANITHING! All he would say, is to put the blame on learner. He is highly rude and he gets annoyed if you dare to ask or say anything to the point to nearly shouting. But he would chat and ask questions about your personal life, only to distract you. I had over 15 lessons driving around Aylesford School, 5 to 10 miles an hour speed. I had to say that I hate the place and I have to practice some speed. He came to a lesson having a cold, mentioning that he went to A&E with chest infection, but he is wearing a mask. A week later, I ended in A&E with chest infection, so I had to cancel my lesson, twice. I gave him 12 hour notice as I hoped he understands (I was booked quite early, 6. 30, because beforehand I spent time in traffic - waisting money) but his replying was rude, as expected. He often smells of garlic! He burps that garlic whilst you drive. He opened the window to spit. I found him rude and gross and money greed! I had all the lessons with him as there were short availability or others dont operate on a single lesson.
