I Choosed Jerry Holme Driving School because of Cost – I contacted the school with the best deal first, when I discovered the church connection (through a Friend of my) I went with Jerry and didn’t phone around others ( who also stopped in front of Grandparent’s house on the royal esplanade) Friendly, small school but I like Jerry School. When I stared learning I was expecting it to be easier and less nerve wrecking but I (wouldn’t’ change anything otherwise, there could have been a very different outcome.) Jerry teaching methods I don’t really have anything to compare them too but I would say the lessons are clear and concise. Yes I Would you recommend I have already recommended Jerry to someone. I appreciated being able to phone Andrea on the landline- it made contacting easier and friendly Thank you Jerry for helping.

My original instructor was Jerry but he was too busy to take me back on therefore recommended one of his other instructors Brandon. I was happy with the prices of the lessons and they were convenient. I found the lessons a bit stressful but Brandon made then fun. Brandon’s teaching methods were very good and comforting. I can’t fault this service so I would recommend.

When I was looking for a driving Instructor I wanted to find someone that is calm and patient friendly and easy to talk to if I was to struggling with my lessons. At first I was worried and didn’t know what to expect, but it was a lot more fun than I expected with Jerry. Teaching methods were very clear and easy to pick up. Yes I would recommend Jerry because I feel I have learnt a lot about being on the road as well as how to drive. Also the lessons were fun and my instructor Jerry was friendly and a good teacher.

Learning was very easy and enjoyable to what I was expecting and teaching method very clear and precise at what Brandon wanted me to do great driving school very easy to talk with instructor about any worries. No more to add as a very experienced instructor that was very helpful at getting me passed as quick as possible.

I wanted someone who would be able to work around my work hours as well as someone who is friendly and cost effective. I used Jerry when I first started my lessons and he was very down to earth and friendly. I then went onto have Brandon as my tutor and I felt he reflected Jerry’s values very well and again was very friendly. The techniques that Brandon used to teach me were so easy to grasp. He is very easy to get along with. Even when I struggled with manoeuvres, Brandon helped me to work around them. Easy to learn and very helpful. I would recommend 100% because with Jerry / Brandon I would not have passed! The teaching methods are amazing! Brandon is great with communicating with me throughout the lesson. Absolutely nothing! The prices are great for the amount we fit into the lesson. The teaching methods are amazing!

I was looking for a professional school that would take the process seriously and would provide me with the techniques I needed to be a safe driver. I saw the car whilst out and thought it looked really smart so I was online looking for reviews! When I was looking into reviews it was important for me to see that the instructors were patient, professional and supportive, as someone with a nervous attitude I was really pleased to see all the great reviews from female students and so I was immediately confident this school would be a great choice! It was a lot more pleasant than I expected and I looked forward to my lessons each week as every lesson I always felt I had achieved something or learnt a valuable lesson, which really helped boost my confidence. Brandon was very patient, calm, clear and encouraging. I always felt comfortable, and Brandon was always willing to answer my endless questions and would always take his time explaining everything, so I always knew what I needed to do. Absolutely I would recommend this school without a doubt. In fact I already have, my brother now learns with the school and Brandon. Whilst some might see the cost and think it’s expensive it actually becomes cost effective – and you cannot argue with quality, especially when learning to drive. You get a fantastic 2 hour lesson, which really helps with learning process – think all schools should do a 2 hour lesson as you learn so much more and it becomes a valuable learning experience. Brandon was a great teacher and as a result of my learning with the school I had the skills and confidence to pass 1st time.

Most important factors were a driving instructor who was friendly, patient and easy to talk to. And price of lessons and flexible lessons around my college work. I thought there would be more theory but found it a lot more practical and I learnt it all quite quickly thanks to Jerry my driving instructor, Teaching methods was very good, always had an aim at the beginning of a lesson and feedback at the end which helped my progress. I would recommend as I past first time which helped. My instructor was very professional and supportive. Can’t think of any improvements with lessons.

I passed first time with Jerry Holmes Driving School and can't recommend them enough. I started lessons with Jerry in late 2021, although I had some previous experience 2-3 years ago at uni with an instructor who was unreliable and rushing me to take my practical. Jerry is very patient and thorough, very professional and as someone who can get anxious at times, he always reassured me of my driving ability and helped correct any bad habits. Throughout your lesson you will get a lot of feedback, and you 100% have control of how fast/slow the lessons go or what you want to cover depending on your confidence. I was recommended this driving school from a friend and can't fault the service. I'm looking forward to getting a car and enjoying newfound freedom! Thank you for your help!

I chose Jerry for his experience, as I looked for a driving instructor who has been teaching for many years. I also looked for good reviews and good feedback from others and you can see this with the many reviews Jerry has on his website. I expected to have difficulty with the lessons but Jerry as a driving instructor was able to teach the way which I found best for me. I found Jerry teaching methods very detailed and easy to understand he would also go over things I found difficult until I was happy. I definitely would recommend this driving school he is supportive and experienced.

I wanted to fine a driving school with somebody who wasn’t too “military”. I was keen to have a driving instructor that was easy to talk to, and I felt I could easily communicate with, Brandon was incredible in that respect and Somebody I was semi- familiar with, as my brother also had Brandon. He couldn’t express how amazing his experience with him had been. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I looked forward to each lesson. I never dreaded getting in the car, even if something went wrong one the lesson before.

Overall, my driving experience has been one I will never forget. Brandon was incredible! His calm reassuring nature made me feel extremely comfortable when taking lessons. His manor of explaining “What went well” and “even better if” was so helpful. So that each lesson I knew where to improve! Thanks Brandon. Recommend this driving school Absolutely! I would 100% recommend the team because of their professionalism, and calm nature is the one that, hearing from my friends, not a lot of driving schools have.
