I passed my driving test first time on Wednesday thanks to the faultless tutoring I received from my instructor, Jackie Davies.

Cassie
Hartcliffe
I just passed my test and Harry was my driving instructor. I previously had lessons with another driving school and switched schools because I felt like they were taking me through the process at too slow a pace and I had no control over what areas I needed to improve/build confidence. Once I started with Harry the situation completely changed. He allowed me to go at my own pace and build confidence. He’s easy to get along with and has a clear and genuine approach. He was also very flexible with picking me up/dropping me off at different locations and times.
Beulah

I just finished my first lesson with Robbie’s and I am very pleased. My instructor is called Alan Padgett and he is a very funny and informative guy. I used to drive with a different school and I genuinely learnt more in this one lesson than I did in all the lessons I had with the other school. I would definitely recommend him and Robbie’s in general to anyone who wants to learn to drive and have fun at the same time! π

Gareth
Bristol (Southmead)
Passed my test this morning after being instructed by Chris for the last couple of months. I found him to be a patient and helpful instructor, as well as a thoroughly nice bloke! I was a more mature learner but can see that his demeanor would be excellent for teaching first time drivers. His diary was always packed but he went out of his way to fit extra time in when i needed it at the cost of his own (i’m sure very busy π ) social life! Highly recommended.

Verity Slater
Whitchurch
Both my partner and I have had Jim Shortland as our instructor for the past few months and we are both taking our test soon.I started off as a very nervous driver with very little confidence, convinced as a slightly older learner driver (27) and having had lessons with other driving schools, that I would never be able to drive. Now here I am about to take my test!I knew after the first lesson that Jim would be the instructor to take me from learner to driver π π He never got tired of my endless questions and going over things i was unsure of. I now feel confident when I get in the car.We would definitely recommend him to others, especially if you are a bit nervous!
Josh Bennett

I had Ken Burrows as my driving instructor and I cannot fault the bloke! Everything I had to learn and carry out I was clearly instructed in the safest and easiest way! Felt confident every lesson!

When I used to think about driving I used to think of people trying to make money , Jim Shortland proved this was a myth , I went in with trust at the fact of how recommended he is in my area and how high in demand he is , the bloke works 6/7 days a week and never let’s anyone down , he treated me as a individual not a number and passed me at the rate I felt needed. I will recommend him to all

I passed with Jim Shortland a year ago , he has changed my life for the better , I had a bad experience in a car and my dad pushed me to take lessons , he heard great things about Jim and I was happy to be able to confirm them , he conquered my fears with a amazing learning method , he put my needs first and didn’t let me down once , he has this way of explaining things like no other , he aims higher and went out of his way to ensure I was comfortable on the roads in all aspects. He spend added time with me as he noted what I had been through and he genuinely does put his students first , he is the best instructor around and has since passed 2 of my friends , I can promise if you are looking to pass at a high and safe level then Jim is the instructor to go for, best decision I had

Paul James

Need a driving instructor? Low on confidence? Find it difficult to understand the simplest of instructions or get nervous easily? Well there’s only 1 answer go to Robbie’s Driving School and ask for Jenka Poole ….. There is no instructor like her …. She has the patience of a saint and allows you to train at your own speed whilst explaining things in a clear and concise manner, if you don’t understand she will find an alternative way to explain….. I never would have learned to drive let alone pass my test first time with anyone else….. I have gone from being extremely nervous and doubting everything I do to passing my test and enjoying the freedom of the road for 6 months within a year….. So Jenka I would like to thank you….. You’ll never know truly how much you improved my life prospects π

I had a previous driver instructor before Jenka and didn’t get on very well, as soon as I started with Jenka I learnt very quickly as she was very patient (especially when doing double mini roundabouts) and good at explaining things. I had a good relationship with Jenka and always looked forward to my lessons as we would have a general chit chat and I felt completely at ease. I have and will keep on recommending her as a driving instructor, my brother is going to start learning soon and he will be requesting Jenka! π

Being a nervous sort of person and learning to drive, Colin was the perfect person to have as my instructor. He is great at teaching anybody who is anxious about driving.
Hannah Griffiths

I was so nervous about learning to drive, Colin was recommended to me, and he is incredible! He is so patient and reassuring, and I now look forward to my lessons! I cannot thank him enough for being such a fantastic instructor.

I’m currently learning to drive with Robbie’s and I have Jenka Poole as my instructor, she’s very helpful and calming when you’re driving and never raises her voice. When you do something wrong instead of getting a mouth full she really encourages you to do better the next time. Very happy with my decision and couldn’t see myself learning with any other driving instructor… It just wouldn’t feel right!. π
Jasaint

Jenka is great, she is very detailed which allows me to fully understand all aspects of the road. I feel at ease when asking questions and she makes me feel comfortable enough to ask anything I’m unsure of.

Evie Gane
My instructor Jenka Poole has been incredible at building my confidence with driving and I would highly recommend her and Robbie’s driving school as a whole. All lessons are geared to building skills in driving and understanding the roads! π π
Mike

After having lessons 4 years ago with another company and taking 3 tests without success, i decided i would give it another go. After only two months and eight lessons with Mark Beaumont i had passed both my theory and my practical tests. Mark is an outstanding instructor, and is very friendly and easy to talk too. I would highly recommend Mark to any other learner drivers!
Rhianna
Speedwell
The best desicion I made was to take my driving lessons with Robbie’s Driving School. My driving instructor is Jenka Poole and she is great; always making sure you know what you need to be able to do, helps boost your confidence and makes you feel very comfortable which helps when having your lesson. Fantastic instructor, very pleased with my decision. π
Bella Cho
Bristol
I feel on top of the world after passing my practical test with instructor Steve Mitchell. He was very patient. Most importantly, when he takes you for practice, he gives you plenty of opportunity to practice manoeuvres. Not out to waste your time and squeeze more money from you; but to teach what is expected in test. If looking for HONEST instructor, call Steve. 100% recommended π
Tom
Clevedon
There’s not a better instructor out there. Mark was a truly amazing instructor for me, very friendly and very good at teaching the techniques to pass my test with ease. Learning from Mark was the best decision in learning to drive i made. Very relaxed and a brilliant teacher

Jenka Poole was highly recommended to me, by a friend, and I’m glad that she is my instructor. Jenka has always been pleasant and patient with me even when I’ve made mistakes. This has helped to build my independence and confidence on the road. Thank you Jenka!! π π

I would recommend Mark Beaumont to anyone learning to drive. He is really easy to get along with, really helps to keep you composed and stays calm when when you make mistakes. When there was something you couldn’t quite get the hang of he was patient and encouraging and lessons would always be fun even when you’re having a bad day.

I saw her the other day and her wise words came back to me and reminded me of all the tips she gave me over again. Jenka was my second driving instructor and my experience with another school was negative but Jenka restored my confidence and I have so much to thank her for.
