Rob Hopkins

Rob Hopkins was a brilliant instructor! He is very friendly and patient. Allowing to correct mistakes and provide help and understanding when I wasn’t fully confident in situations. Was very happy to have someone to talk to whilst behind the wheel, made me feel a lot more comfortable.

Rob Hopkins driving instructor

Rob Hopkins was a great driving instructor. I came to him after being discouraged by a poor instructor and Rob helped me get my confidence in driving back and supported me to pass first time!
I recommended Rob to everyone I knew and he helped them all pass in a timely manner.
Thanks again Rob!

Reliable consistent mentor

Jackie Davis was my one of a kind mentor aiding me to achieve beyond what I thought was possible, passing without any faults and first time the results speak for themselves.
Wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

I had Rob Hopkins

I had Rob Hopkins. As my instructor for my driving lessons. He is extremely reliable. I had him through Covid when the country was in and out of restrictions. And he done his very best in always keeping room for my sessions. He also helped me pass my theory and also helped me pass my practical first time. Highly recommend Rob Hopkins.

Couldn't ask for a better instructor

I was taught by Rob Hopkins of Robbie's driving school in Lydney and I have to say I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Rob is such a nice guy and made learning to drive quick easy. Once my theory was out the way I passed my test first time thanks to Rob.

Excellent driving instructor

I came to Rob Hopkins after not getting on so well with my previous instructor. I’m glad I made that choice as Rob is a very good instructor, he is patient, listens and gives instructions well in advance of having to perform them. He also makes you feel at ease in the car and takes interest in your personal life too. I am very grateful for Robs help and have enjoyed driving ever since passing 2 years ago.

Rob Hopkins is a superb instructor

Rob Hopkins is a superb instructor. He is a excellent teacher, is very patient and is also a great guy whos company I really enjoyed during our extensive tours of the Forest of dean, Monmouth and the A40. I have ADHD and came to driving later than some (33 yr old when I passed) so found some things a bit harder but Rob really supported me the whole way. Highly recommended.

Great driving teacher

I'm very glad that I came across Rob Hopkins as a driving instructor. He's a thorough teacher, patient, kind, nice to chat to, and really cares that his students do well. His focus is not just on passing the test, but also actually being equipped with high-quality safe driving skills for life. He's also been willing to work around my difficult schedule, which has been very helpful. Highly recommended!

After looking around for a driving instructor for a while I found Robbie's and was contacted back quickly where a day and time was arranged for a first lesson. Rob was extremely patient and guiding whilst driving and explaining situations and has an amazing memory to help during lessons. I would say Absolutely brilliant!
