What Our Pupils Say About Us

"I work for the ambulance service and needed to obtain a C1 in order to progress with my career within the health industry. I would absolutely recommend Pure Driving. I did a 2 day driving course with Pure Driving for my C1 practical driving test. Pure Driving was able to accommodate during this terrible pandemic. I met Dave on the monday, and on the friday I passed my C1 practical driving test the first time, despite being extremely apprehensive! Dave was able to keep me calm, and he was very reassuring whilst building my confidence. Dave prepared me for my practical test and conducted my driving course in a polite, friendly and professional manner. Thank you Dave – you have been fantastic! You will be hearing from me again soon to go for another additional category on to my licence. Thank you Pure Driving! 100% recommended A+++++"

"Just completed a 1 day D1 licence course with Dave from Pure Driving. Dave was a friendly, knowledgeable instructor who made the course an enjoyable experience and ended with a pass at the end of the day. Communication with Pure Driving was prompt and easy to understand, and the theory training resource was user friendly and provided all the required information to pass the first time. Very happy to recommend Dave and Pure Driving to anyone looking to gain additional licence qualifications."

"Absolutely thrilled with Dave at Pure Driving. He helped me pass my C1 licence first time on the day course, he was patient and very kind. He answered all my questions and was very helpful on the day, and even beforehand he was very easy to get hold of and quick to respond back."

"I passed my B and E test today after my tuition with Dave Avery. I cannot thank you enough. After failing my first test with another instructor, I contacted Dave for an assessment lesson. I was immediately put at ease. Dave takes a relaxed and positive approach to teaching, which makes the whole experience far less stressful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dave to anyone. "

"The course was very useful, I found my confidence and understanding greatly improved. I learnt the principals of reversing into small spaces and reversing around a corner, as well as manoeuvring principals when pulling a trailer. I drove up steep hills and accomplished overtaking on a motorway as well as going into cruise at 60 mph. I was very impressed with my instructor and his extensive amount of knowledge. I also had an insight into more advanced driving principals and updated my highway code knowledge. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn trailer towing principals to a very high standard. My instructor was excellent and gave me encouragement and was enthusiastic at all times. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience. "

"I had been driving for almost 20 years before taking the B+E test, and Dave had a great approach coaching me with confidence and in a very relaxed way. We’ve had 2 strikes from the DVSA, losing 2 test days, and Dave has been always truly prompt to manage the situation, getting further appointments and understanding my needs since I had a very short time to take the test. I would recommend Pure Driving and Dave as instructor to anyone looking to get a driving licence!"

"Dave is easily one of the best driving instructors with whom I’ve had the privilege of studying. He was able to teach me, a newly arrived Canadian, the ropes around roundabouts, pinch points, and how to drive safely and effectively on the roads of England. I’m immensely pleased with his teaching style and emphasis on building on foundational learning. I am especially grateful that he was able to make the time for me and my father in law when he was here from abroad. "
