Very well put together lessons with a comfortable environment to learn at my own pace

Good driving instructor and helped me learn how to drive safely and, if I made a mistake she would always find a way to help me fix it and get better but also more confident.

Absolutely amazing, passed first time with one minor!

Thank you so much Nicky 😄

Highly recommend

Guy made me feel really comfortable, helping me pass first time. He gave simple, direct feedback and instructions that made me progress quickly.

I had niya from the start and he helped me build my confidence so much. He’s also a someone I felt comfortable with from the start to talk to like a friend which for me is very important to actually be able to enjoy my lessons.

Started driving with Francis as my instructor, I had no previous driving experience. Within just four months I passed my test with only 2 minors. I could not have had a better instructor, Francis was patient, firm and reassuring each leason. He didn’t linger on mistakes and pushed forwards to instead make sure it didn’t happen again. I seriously couldn’t recommend anyone better. 😁

Debbie is a fantastic teacher and so lovely. I couldn’t have done it on such short notice without her.

Powerman Nipapa was an incredible driving instructor and it is all thanks to him that I passed my driving test on the first attempt! Throughout my entire journey learning to drive, Powerman’s guidance and patience during lessons enabled me with the confidence to take the wheel, assured that he would react to assist me at any times I was uncertain or made a mistake on the road and then help train me not to make those same mistakes in future. The company, Acclaim Driving, themselves were always friendly and helpful whenever I needed to rearrange a lesson, and I have never had any issues with booking lessons through Acclaim. I am very grateful for Acclaim and Powerman, and I would definitely recommend them both – and I will miss my chats with Powerman about the football!

Great communication, easy to book on the website. Ansam had so much patience, really recommend him as an instructor. Thank you

Can’t thank Adrian McKinley enough for his lessons , taking a man who didn’t want to drive, and never thought he would drive , to passing first time in his mid thirties.

Aswell as being a great teacher , is a top bloke who puts you at ease and takes the stress out the lessons enabling you to learn and progress.

Thank you mate !!

After a bit of a scramble when my previous instructor couldn't accommodate my test date, I reached out to Acclaim Driving, and I'm so glad I did! The entire team was wonderful; booking lessons and making payments was a breeze. I particularly appreciated the personal touch of them checking in after my first lesson.

I had just 5 hours of lessons with Simon, and I'm incredibly grateful for his patience and dedication. He has a real knack for explaining concepts in various ways, which truly helped me grasp the safest driving techniques. Thanks to Simon, I felt confident and well-prepared, and I passed my test! I would wholeheartedly recommend Acclaim Driving to any new learners.

I want to thank my instructor Wakeel Effendi, his been so helpful and patient through this whole journey. He has been so supportive. His local knowledge has helped me learn alot.

Acclaim driving cannot provide an adequate driving service in the South West. I lost six months because there was only one driving instructor south of Crawley and he was never available on my test dates. Now I am no longer a student, completing a test is going to become much harder thanks to Acclaim Driving.
To their credit their customer service is excellent, the driving instructor was very good during the lesson we had, and I was given a full refund without admin fees considering the circumstances. However I cannot recommend Acclaim Driving to anyone wishing to pass their test in the South West.

Sadiq was an amazing driving instructor and took his time teaching me manoeuvres and good driving habits. I was able to pass my test in amazing time!

Rich was my daughter’s instructor and we couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. He was really patient, gave clear instructions and suggestions on what to practice, helping her overcome her nerves to achieve a first time pass.

We would recommend Rich without hesitation.

Excellent experience learning with Andy Holmes in his Ford Fiesta. He has just the right teaching style, the right buildup of difficulty, and knows which aspects need insisting on and which roads in the area are best for practice at each stage.

My instructor, Paula Pollard gave me a really lovely experience. She was very patient with me, always asked me what I wanted to improve on, suggested anything she felt I needed and explained very clearly any questions I had. She was just always happy to help me and gave me a lot of confidence. It was very enjoyable learning with her. Thank you for everything once again Paula 😊

Dont go with them. I invested in loads of lessons and cancelled just 2 weeks before my test because I did not book any lessons recently when the instructor told me I was "test ready".

They called me on my office hours and did not send any text or emails.

My instructor Nichola was great! She gave me so much confidence when I was really struggling and tailored her teaching to my needs. As a neurodivergent person, I was worried I wouldn’t do well, but she was so patient and informative that I had nothing to worry about. All very smooth payment and booking wise and passed first time!! Thank you Nichola and Acclaim :))

When looking for a driving instructor, these are the qualities that matter most:

Knowledge and expertise.
Attention and focus throughout every lesson.
The ability to identify your weaknesses and provide practical solutions and clear reference points to help you improve.
Reliability and trustworthiness.
Most importantly, the people skills to keep you calm, confident, and in a positive mindset both before and during your driving test.

Habtom excels in every one of these areas, and I can't thank him enough.

After failing my first driving test with a previous instructor, I was anxious about finding someone new. However, from the very first phone conversation with Habtom—when we were simply arranging and rescheduling our first lesson—I could tell he was a genuine people person. He was relatable, approachable, and down to earth, which immediately put me at ease.

After just the first lesson, I couldn't believe the difference in the quality of instruction. Habtom quickly identified the areas I needed to work on and explained everything in a way that made sense. Rather than just pointing out mistakes, he gave me practical techniques and clear reference points that I could apply straight away, which made a huge difference to my confidence and driving.

Throughout every lesson, he was fully engaged, patient, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. He never made me feel rushed or discouraged, and he always knew exactly how to keep me focused while building my confidence.

By the time my test came around, I felt calm, prepared, and believed I could pass—something I didn't feel after my previous experience. That positive mindset was largely thanks to Habtom's encouragement and the confidence he helped me build.

If you're looking for an instructor who is knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely cares about your success, I couldn't recommend Habtom more highly.
