Fantastic instructor! Very calm & polite. He gave me confidence after having issues with a previous instructor. Would strongly recommend! 5*
I recently had the privilege of learning from David. David played a pivotal role in helping me pass my driving test with zero minor faults. I came into this experience with some prior driving knowledge, seeking guidance on the small, easy-to-miss nuances of safe driving, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor.From the very beginning, David’s approach was both professional and patient. He took the time to understand my specific needs and tailored his instruction accordingly. His ability to pinpoint and focus on the subtle details that often go unnoticed by less experienced drivers was truly remarkable.Thanks to David’s guidance and expertise, I not only passed my driving test flawlessly but also gained the confidence to navigate the roads with ease. I wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone seeking not just a pass, but a thorough and exceptional driving education. His help was nothing short of amazing, and I am grateful for the invaluable knowledge and skills I gained under his tutelage.Highly recommended not only for beginners, but experienced drivers too! 🙏

I cannot recommend David enough, he is the ideal driving instructor. Incredibly experienced and well mannered, he is always making himself available for his students whenever possible, even going out of his way. He knows exactly what you need and delivers it efficiently and intuitively. He always ready to adapt to your preferences, and has highly valuable insight and skill.I was desperate to pass in order to commute and he was supportive at every stage, including when my commitments as a Doctor interrupted our plans. I passed first time! His service is worth every penny and every lesson is a pleasure. If you are lucky enough to get a space with him, cherish it!David, thank you!

Amazing teacher! I was anxious about driving and getting things wrong but David never failed to reassure me and make sure i knew everything was ok and I passed first time. He’s a kind and patient teacher who really puts you at ease. If you’re looking for a driving instructor- especially if you’re worried about driving- I cannot recommend him enough.He asks you if there’s anything in particular you want to practice at the start of each lesson so you can be in control of your learning. He provides you with in-depth feedback so you know how to improve and takes into account medical needs. I have issues with my knees, hips and back and had to take a break to have knee surgery. Upon return David was incredible and made sure i was comfortable throughout and eased any anxieties about returning back to driving.

David was an excellent driving instructor. He understood my needs as someone who had issues with anxiety and helped me grow into a confident driver. He always made me feel at ease, prepared me thoroughly for my test and it was a pleasure getting to know him during the course of our lessons!

Incredible driving instructor. I cannot recommend David enough. I was terrified of the thought of driving but from the first lesson, he made me feel completely at ease and confident! Dave is a kind, caring, considerate man with a fantastic sense of humour too. He has a real passion for teaching and the way he does it is so effortless and through his amazing teaching I passed my driving test yesterday, first time. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart David. I’ve gone from a nervous wreck to someone who is excited to be on the road. 5 stars. 100% recommend.
If you’re looking for a driving instructor, David’s your man. If you’re looking to get refresher lessons, he’s also your guy! David does it all and I’m so so glad I found him.He replied to my first initial enquiry quickly and was everything you could want in an instructor. I was after learning how to reverse and parallel park, even though I’ve been driving for many years. It’s something I’ve never been confident in, and David taught me so many tips and tricks.We drove in his car for the first lesson to get used to things, and the second lesson was in my car so I could master the techniques. I did my first reverse park in between two cars and was so happy. I’ve never been confident to do that!I 100% recommend and know who to go back to if I ever need another refresher. Reversed into my driveway for the first time in 7 years after the lesson – thank you David!Lesson was completely led by me in regards to what I wanted to spend my time on which was also really nice. All in all, superb service! All these positive reviews are well deserved!

I tried out quite a few instructors before I found David, and I am so thankful I did! Immediately he put me at ease, he never made me feel silly if I didn’t understand something and has a great way of explaining the rules of the road. He is very student-centred and appreciates that people learn in different ways, I’d always look forward to our lessons because I knew I wasn’t going to be stressed or panicked but actually have a positive learning experience. He is a complete professional, patient, considerate of everyone’s individual goals and very friendly. I couldn’t have had a better experience and count myself very lucky. Thank you David!

David is a fantastic teacher and extremely patient, made me feel at ease throughout the whole process of learning to drive and preparing for the test. He teaches not just to pass the test but to drive and gain confidence. So so happy I chose to learn with Horgis, 100% would recommend.

After 2 rocky starts to learning to drive my confidence and will to drive was almost non existent. I chose to try a private instructor instead of a franchise and it was the best thing I ever did. David is amazing his passing for teaching to drive shines through in every lesson and I quickly regained my eagerness to drive. David was patient, considerate and flexible which really helped me. Not only does he know his stuff when it comes to driving but he also has knowledge in body language, learning styles and people in general specialising in nervous drivers. Having passed first time I am over the moon and cannot thank David enough for helping me to achieve something I never thought I could!!!!

David is a fantastic driving instructor who is patient, well-mannered and very professional. I never thought that I would be able to pass my driving test first time and I don’t think that I could of done it without David as my instructor. I felt at ease from day 1 and always enjoyed my driving lessons. David also provides a theory app which helped to make it easier to pass. He is a genuinely nice guy and I will miss my driving lessons each week. I will look forward to hopefully taking a pass plus course with David. I couldn’t fault the whole service and I woild srongly recommend Horgis School of Motoring to anybody who wants to learn to drive and pass with confidence. Can’t thank David enough for all of his help!

I have just passed my driving test first time after taking lessons with David and I could’nt be more pleased. I was absolutely terrified of learning to drive and it was something I never thought I would ever have the courage to do, having put it off for years. After 5 minutes in the car I was totally at ease David was so patient and unserstanding and tailored my learning so I was able to feel confident and safe behind the wheel. His online banking system was really easy to use and I was able to book a lesson each week. He also has a card machine in the car which made payment really easy. ( you can pay cash or book in a block) passing the theory test was also made that much easier with the help of an online theory programme that you are provided with. David is such a nice, genuine guy who I am going to miss now my lessons are finished, but am looking forward to hopefully booking my pass plus with him. My learning won’t stop now I’ve passed and I know that David will still be there if I have Any questions or queries. I really can’t reccomend the Horgis school of motering enough. Thank you so much !

David is a very patient,instructive and well mannered instructor that really helped me to pass my test first time. Paying by card in the car for my lessons meant i didn’t have to worry about having the correct money in cash for every lesson, getting a text message the day before a lesson was a great way for me to remember or cancel a lesson without any hassle, lastly having the use of a driving theory website he provided really made it easy to learn and practice everything for the theory test. I would recommend David to anyone that is looking for a driving instructor, his lessons are excellent value for money and i couldn’t fault the whole service i was provided.

Overall nice guy!I Chose David after reading his brilliant reviews and he definitely lived up to his reputation. If I had to do it again couldn’t imagine choosing anyone else. One of the many good things about David is he goes at the pace you want, helping me achieve my target in August of passing by December! He also helped me substantially with my theory test helping with any queries I had. The most important thing about David is he is an overall nice guy! Always calm and collective and always looking to go the extra mile which I really appreciate! If your debating an instructor, no questions go with Horgis!Thanks again David!

I have got to say learning to drive with David has been a good and rewarding experience. I would recommend David to anyone who wants to learn how to drive properly and to pass their test first time. From the first day I met David I knew I had made a right choice of driving instructor. He immediately made me feel at ease and I cannot thank him enough!
THE BEST driving instructor around!! I previously failed tests with other driving schools and gave up trying to drive, years later I contacted David and he put me straight at ease with everything. He has a great way of teaching and I have passed my test this time around!! 🙂 amazing guy, if you’re looking for an instructor this is your man he is the best instructor EVER!!

I passed my driving test yesterday first time with Horgis School of Motoring and I was over the moon! I contacted David for help after reading the fantastic reviews that he had received online. I can honestly say that I’m so glad I did. When I first started out with David, I was a nervous learner and I lacked confidence in myself. I had been with 2 instructors previously from another school, however I wasn’t happy with the service that I had received. David identified the problems that I had and we worked through them together. Over a short period of time I became much more relaxed, positive, confident, and more importantly I started to enjoy driving. David is an excellent driving instructor and a true professional at his job. David is has a relaxed, positive attitude whilst in the car which really helped me to relax and to understand that it’s ok to make mistakes. I felt totally at ease whilst having my driving lessons with David. David goes that extra mile as an instructor. All of his lessons are properly planned and finish with a progress report at the end of every lesson. David regularly reviews your progress and sends you teaching aids via email to help you along your journey. David is a great listener and will always give you the time for a good chat. I knew that I could always pick up the phone or send a text if I had any worries or concerns. It isn’t about the money for David, he really has a passion for his job and it is something you will learn if you are taught by him. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and I now think of David as a friend. I will definitely be staying in touch and completing some Pass Plus lessons with him to help me build my confidence for driving on the motorway. I couldn’t recommend anyone better for a learner driver. Thank you so much for everything.

Driving instructor reviews are really important to you?

It’s really important that you choose a driving instructor that is going to be there with you from your first driving lesson to passing your driving test. Driving instructor reviews make it easier for you to make an informed decision. It’s no good being offered cheap driving lessons, block bookings for driving lessons or introductory offers that seem to be a cheap way to learn to drive. If your driving instructor is someone you can’t get along with.

The DVSA, Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency works hard to ensure only the best driving instructors are passed to become fully qualified driving instructors or ADI’s, these driving instructors are monitored closely and have to pass a stringent test of their own every two to five years this is known as a Standards Check. All the reviews on Freeindex are from my past customers who over the years have passed their driving tests with me or just achieved the results they were looking for.

All qualified instructors are approved by the DVSA

Also, they have to be checked by the criminal record check to ensure they are a fit and proper person. Contact me after reading my reviews and see how I can help you pass your driving test.
