My instructor was Sean and without him, I certainly wouldn’t have passed. He is everything you need in a teacher: patient, kind and funny. He never gave up on me even when I gave up on myself and so I... See more

Massive thanks to Tony! I’d been driving with Tony from about February up until my test yesterday (June) and I cannot emphasise how amazing he has been. Tony is the most patient, kind, funny... See more

Lila is the best automatic Instructer

I have been taking automatic lessons with Lila. She is truly amazing. I highly recommend her. I failed my first test but after following exactly what she thought me I passed with zero minors on my second try. Overall my whole experience with Alfie driving school has been amazing. Thank you Lila and Leon!!

Instructor

I passed my driving test today for the 1st time with zero minors. My instructor was Sean who was absolutely amazing. He was always on time, always flexible and most importantly always pushing me. I think all of his techniques and especially his advice on slip roads and hills were what helped me pass. I will be recommending him to all my friends and family.

Initially I was really concerned with…

Initially I was really concerned with the driver I may get. I really wanted to get on with the driver as I knew that would help me pass. Davina my instructor for Alfie’s driving school exceeded all my expectations and made me feel driving with no pressure and at times taking the conversation away from driving.
Davina has helped me reach some personal goals one of them achieving passing my test. ;)) five stars ⭐️!!

Highly Recommend

I would highly recommend this driving school to every person out there who is willing to obtain their licence and especially my instructor. A massive t-h-a-n-k y-o-u to JOHN .. because of him I was able to pass my driving test today. He is very patient, understanding, professional and a good motivator. He occasionally makes good jokes to make you feel relaxed behind the wheel too and makes the lessons more enjoyable.
Anything I wasn't sure on, I wasn't afraid to ask and John always made sure to answer all my questions and concerns.

My instructor was Sean

My instructor was Sean, I like his teaching skills/techniques especially on slip roads and tight corners.

Furthermore, my instructor was always bang on time and very flexible to get the agreed lesson times.

My biggest highlight during my lessons is when my instructor took me to A roads which helped me to overcome my fear of fast moving traffic (A13).

Finally, I appreciate the support from Alfie's Driving School. Again, thanks Sean.

Great driving school

Great driving school. My instructor Graham took his time to teach me how to drive, making me feel at ease and test ready. I looked forward to our lessons and the challenges he gave.

The driving school is very accommodating. 100% recommend!

I definitely recommend Sean!

My driving instructor was Sean, He has been a great support for a long time. He was so patient and understanding. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! He made me feel comfortable and calm during my lessons because I was so nervous. I couldn’t have done it without his help and support, thank you.

Alfie’s/Lila are amazing!

We had a terrible experience with another driving school who left my daughter with no confidence and then ditched her when she needed to change her lesson times after getting a full time job. We were in a real fix as everyone was booked out.

We found Alfie’s driving school who immediately put us in touch with Lila. They really did help us out as it was so hard to find another instructor during the pandemic.
Not only that but immediately Lila gave my daughter the confidence she needed and she now loves driving.

She has passed her test and we cannot thank Lila and Alfie’s driving school enough for all their help to get her to this stage.

My daughter cannot speak highly enough of Lila and is really going to miss her.
