First time pass! Highly recommended.

Tom is an amazing instructor and would highly recommend. He is very calm, will point out right away is there are any errors and how those can be corrected. There is no awkwardness when in the car, always have a good chat. Really friendly.
At the start he asked about experience driving previously and from there recommended how many hours was needed and from there passed my test first time.

Intensive course

My son did a 40 hour intensive course with Big Tom and passed his test first time the following week. He had to delay the course and test several times due to lockdown so my son really was anxious to pass.
Tom doesn’t just take pupils around the test routes, he makes sure they can drive well. They went to Peterborough, Stamford, Grantham, Spalding and Boston and also down the A1. My son passed on a route he had never been on before. Tom is relaxed but makes it clear to pupils how important safe driving is. There are lots of course materials too which were really useful. Would definitely recommend Big Tom.

I can’t thank Big Tom enough!

I can’t thank Big Tom enough!
From the very first contact, to me passing my driving test first time, the whole experience has been very professional and easy.
Even before I had my first driving lesson, I completed an online package, consisting of Youtube videos, Q and A’s and reading resources, I found this extremely helpful. Tom is an excellent communicator, he was able to adapt his teaching style to suit my needs and made the whole learning experience pleasurable and less stressful.
During the whole process, we had an lockdown due to Covid-19 and a freak snowstorm to deal with, all of which Tom handled with great professionalism, providing great communication and flexibility, when needed.

The best

Big Tom Driving School was very helpful, informative and friendly. I passed within 7 days receiving 1 minor. Easy to talk to, puts you at ease. The best driving instructor I have been with would recommend him to anyone who wants to learn how to drive. Intensive course is well worth the money especially if you want to pass quickly.
