Geoff Capes Driving SchoolAnmeldelser 

I’ve passed my driving test with Doug, I’ve passed with 4 minors. I would recommend Doug as he works around you if you’ve got a busy schedule and is a very chill person who makes you feel safe and helps you get a better understanding of driving.

Recently passed my test after learning with Jonny!
What an amazing experience from start to finish. Having previously started learning I was very nervous to have a new instructor but Jonny was absolutely brilliant!
No question was ever silly and he was so calm and patient the lessons were amazing. He was so thorough when explaining everything he taught!
I am so glad I went with Jonny for my lessons and passed 1st time!
Would highly reccomend Jonny to anybody looking for lessons🙂

Thanks again Jonny!

I passed my test with Doug. He's a very friendly guy who I've had great rapport with from the start. He's incredibly knowledgable and his lessons were great which gave me the confidence to know I'm a good driver.

Highly recommend Doug to anyone!

Doug is an amazing instructor he was so insightful and patient particularly in areas I struggled in and he made me feel at ease and confident in my ability even when I doubted myself.
His teaching techniques were invaluable to me and his ability to tailor my lessons to accommodate my style of learning was so encouraging and played a huge role in helping me pass my test first time round.

I passed my driving test first time with Amanda as my driving instructor, having never driven before. She has helped me become more confident behind the wheel and taught me so much each lesson. Thank you!!

I had a fantastic experience with Doug. Passed my practical test first time. He was very friendly, professional and made me feel at ease and safe at all times during the course of my driving journey. Would recommend him 100 times over.

I passed my driving test first time with Amanda, without having any previous experience behind the wheel. Through out she made me feel comfortable which helped me to build my confidence. I couldn’t recommend her anymore to anyone looking for a driving instructor!!

I passed my test first time with Doug with 3 minors, I wouldn’t recommend a driving instructor enough! He made me feel so comfortable & helped me believe in myself. He is very professional and always gave clear explanations, just a genuine person who wants to help you pass!! My sister is now doing her lessons with Doug & she is really enjoying them😌

I had an excellent experience learning to drive with Simon. From the outset, Simon demonstrated a high level of professionalism, patience and pedagogical clarity. Concepts were explained methodically and in a way that was both accessible and logically structured, which made it easy to pick up and build confidence.

Each lesson was purposefully structured and tailored to address specific areas for improvement. Feedback was consistently constructive, precise and delivered in a calm, supportive manner. This approach not only strengthened my technical skills, but gave me the skills to drive for life. Simon isn’t instructing to just pass the test he is helping you drive safely for the future.

I passed the test first time and I attribute this mainly to Simon’s thoughtful instruction and high standards. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone seeking a rigorous, supportive and genuinely effective driving instructor.

I passed my driving test with Geoff Capes Driving School and had a great experience throughout. My instructor Amanda, was very patient, professional, and supportive, which really helped build my confidence. Her clear explanations and calm approach made learning to drive much easier. I’m very grateful for all her guidance and would happily recommend Geoff Capes Driving School, especially Amanda, to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly instructor.

Ive just passed my test (first time!) with Doug, and I really feel like I hit the jackpot having him as my instructor.

I was quite a nervous learner but Doug made me feel very at ease, he was patient and always made me feel like I could do it even when I was doubting myself. His teaching style is very clear and encouraging, and his feedback always felt constructive instead of making me feel bad. I came away from every lesson feeling like I’d learnt so much - he’s very knowledgable and you can really tell he loves to help and really does want the best outcome for you.

He’s truly one of the nicest people you could wish to have teaching you, (I actually looked forward to & enjoyed my lessons), and I know I couldn’t have passed first time if it wasn’t for Doug!

I’d recommend Geoff Capes and in particular Doug Walsh to anyone.

I took my lessons with Doug and recently passed my test. I am diagnosed with autism and ADHD and Doug took this in his stride and adapted my lessons entirely to me. He is patient and understanding and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to teach me how to drive. We were able to have a laugh whilst on my lessons which put me at ease when I was having a more difficult day. Unfortunately Doug wasn’t able to take me on my test date but it was easily resolved when Jonny (another instructor with GC) was able to. Jonny was also very easy to gel with and motivating and I appreciate him for catering to my test day. I would recommend Doug and Geoff Capes 100%. Reasonably priced and my driving experience with them was definitely enjoyable.

I have just passed my test this morning at Bredbury test centre with 2 minor faults!
Doug was my instructor… I contacted Doug fairly last minute as my previous instructor had let me down & my test was approaching.
Doug took me on and I honestly learnt so much from him in a matter of weeks. We had 2 hour lessons each week & I always looked forward to the next lesson with him! He is so friendly and reassuring, whenever I made mistakes he made me learn from them rather than make me feel bad! I honestly don’t think 5 stars is enough to show my appreciation and thankfulness to Doug!!! P.S, I will certainly miss all of our holiday conversations
Once again thankyou for all of your help xx

Great company- after having bad experiences with another driving school I was reluctant to use another. My ADI Doug was great, he understood I was a nervous driver and helped improve my confidence and made each lesson enjoyable . I passed 2nd time, could not recommend enough!

My lessons with Doug have been brilliant. I had lessons in college and I cried in ALL of them as my driver instructor made me feel bad for being anxious. I started again this year and was worried about having the same experience. I needn’t have worried as Doug was brilliant. Explained everything brilliantly, clearly and calmly. I felt so at ease learning with Doug and having just passed my test I cannot stop smiling. Doug has come to get me from work before when my train home was cancelled for a lesson! His explanations are clear and his feedback is specific and constructive, with marginal gains to improve each time. I felt at ease and now driving clears my head.

Passed today first time with 3 minors in a storm!

Absolutely could not recommend this driving school enough! So professional, polite and easy going. My ADI Doug is amazing! He made the whole experience of learning very enjoyable and fun. I passed 1st time with 2 minors.

I am thrilled to share my experience with my driving instructor, Amanda, who has truly been a star in helping me become a confident driver. After a challenging experience with a previous instructor, I was apprehensive about learning to drive again. However, my instructor's calm and supportive attitude made all the difference.

From our very first lesson, I felt valued and understood. Amanda took the time to listen to my concerns and tailored each session to my needs, which significantly boosted my confidence. Their patience was remarkable; they always encouraged me to take my time and ask questions, which made the learning process so much easier and enjoyable.

Thanks to Amanda I finally believe in my driving abilities, I not only passed my driving test but gained the self-assurance I needed to drive confidently.

I highly recommend this driving instructor to anyone, especially those who may feel anxious about driving. Amanda’s expertise, patience, and positive approach! Thank you for helping me Amanda!

All the best, Faith :)

I passed my driving test first time with my instructor Amanda from Geoff Capes Driving school!!Amanda was an amazing instructor really supportive throughout my lessons.She helped me build my confidence and made learning to drive enjoyable.I'd definitely recommend Amanda and Geoff capes to anyone waiting to pass their test and become a safe driver

I had been driving with my parents to prepare for my test for around 3 months. I then decided to book a single lesson to practice good test techniques.

I was connected with Doug, and after that first lesson I decided that I wanted to have more lessons with him.

He is extremely calm and knowledgeable and really helped prepare me for my test. Thanks to his excellent teaching methods I managed to pass with only 1 minor driving fault.

I would 100% recommend Geoff Capes driving school and especially Douglas Walsh!

first time pass! my instructor amanda couldn’t have been more helpful, i wouldn’t have been able to do it without her, thank you so much
