Fantastic instructor! Patient, excellent teaching skills and a super person to boot! Couldn't wish for anyone better. Oh, and I passed my test. Sue had made sure I was competent and prepared. Not surprising when asked who my instructor was and I said, "Sue at TSoD" that so many others had nothing but glowing reviews about her instruction.

Sue taught my 17year old daughter to drive and she passed first time. She's a fantastic driving instructor! Enthusiastic, professional and very very effective. She gets results, I could not recommend her more highly. Thanks Sue!

Sue is an extremely enthusiastic, thorough teacher looking at every aspect of not only the driving test but the individual as a post-test driver. She gives confidence and help with the theory as well as the practical. Highly recommended.

I just passed my driving test on the first attempt, after starting as a complete beginner only 3 months ago, and I cannot praise Toad and my instructor Ben enough. I always felt that my lessons were being tailored to my progress and Ben handled my nerves like a pro. Would not hesitate to recommend this friendly and professional company to anyone!

Few days ago I passed my driving test! I would like to thank Ben, my driving instructor, for being patient and professional leading me through all stages of getting ready to the exam! I liked his easy but precise style of explaining complicated things! He has never lost his temper with me! It was fun!!! I can recommend Ben to anyone who is thinking of taking driving lessons!

Thank you to the best instructor, Sue Papworth! I'm so lucky to have had her as an instructor as her diary is always full! She will not only get you to pass but teach you how to drive to a higher standard keeping you as safe as possible! Simply the best! Will miss our lessons and will keep in touch! X🐸

Passed the trailer test first time, very handy tuition with lots of specialist and detailed knowledge as well as a private area to practice the maneuvers. Felt very prepared and ready for the test.

The best driving instructor. Sue has endless patience and support, goes above and beyond for her students, and takes a genuine interest in them. She helped me pass my test when I didn't think it was possible and never let me down. Just brilliant.

Today I had my 3rd lesson with Toad School of Driving. Sue took me to the farm so I could have a go at reversing and she gave me complete control to get to grips with the steering and pedals when reversing and I felt so comfortable.

Sue (at Toad's School of Driving) got me through my driving test first time, now for the important statement, she has also made me a safe driver! She reads peoples personalities with ease and tailors the driving lessons to suit your individual needs, as not everybody drives the same way. She is dedicated and passionate about her job; she loves driving and will go the extra mile to ensure that you feel comfortable and happy to drive. Just to show you how much she gives, a few days before my test, she sent me a poem called "It can be done and you can do it", it is this kind of care and thought that will go into your lessons. For non-soppy girls and more gregarious men and women, she is capable of driving off-road, trucks, trailers, all sorts! She is up to date, on all aspects of driving, having trained instructors and examiners in the past. She is very good at what she does, you cannot go wrong using her as a driving instructor. I repeat, you can only go right booking her as a driving instructor!

Sue is great at giving you the confidence and belief to get you through your test. I did my B+E trailer training with sue & not only were the lessons fun, but I was quickly able to get the hang of reversing the trailer with a few simple tips. Don't waste your £ going anywhere else as I highly doubt you will find anyone more dedicated and professional to get you through your test. Sue even gave up her weekends to help me as I couldn't get time off from work during the week.

Sue from Toad's School has taught my daughter to drive and she passed her test today. Sue has been a fantastic instructor and with her help I have seen my daughter's driving grow in confidence and skill. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. Thanks Sue.

Prior to starting my B+E training with Sue I assumed that the whole thing would be easy! It’s just a bit of reversing, right? Wrong! I’ve been driving for 14 years, but with a trailer it was all so much more technically difficult than I could ever have imagined. My first 2 hour lesson with Sue was an eye opener and I quickly realised that I would need many more hours of tuition than I had expected. However, Sue is a patient, calm, open and honest tutor who I was able to quickly build rapport with. She made what at times was an agonisingly frustrating process (i.e. spending over an hour and a half trying to hitch up the trailer for the first time on my own!) actually quite fun! Sue’s experience and teaching skills are second to none. She is particularly great at helping you to feel calm just before the test, giving great tips on how to manage nerves, as well as picking up the pieces when things don’t quite go to plan and making sure you don’t give up! Passing my test was a massive achievement that I’m really proud of and it’s all thanks to Sue. She works tirelessly to ensure her students succeed (working 24/7!!), and makes the process a real team effort. I would absolutely recommend Toad’s School Of Driving!

Cannot recommend Toad School of Driving enough. It's difficult to know what to say without echoing all the other positive reviews that have come before mine. Sue and Ben are fantastic. Kind, caring, supportive and extremely dedicated, they are true professionals who do everything in their power to ensure that you are safely equipped for life on the road. My lessons with Toad School of Driving have truly been a pleasure. I passed first time and I shall be sad when they come to an end after my Pass Plus.
I was once the person reading these reviews on here and I am very glad I did. If you're looking for decent driving instructors then look no further - you've just found them.

Writing this review the very same day i've passed my test. I came to Toad, and more particularly Ben, after having a terrible experience with my previous instructor. Ben however was a totally different experience, friendly, patient, enthusiastic and motivating.
Despite being nearly 40, and finding learning something new quite difficult, i do feel i'm a much better driver now. Previously i was being taught how to pass the test - with Ben i felt like i was being taught how to drive.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Toad, and especially Ben - they both deserve all the plaudits they have received on this page.

Thanks to Sue, I have finally passed my Driving Theory Test! This kind lady helped me for 2 hours in her free time while having a Costa Coffee, testing me on multiple choice questions. Not only does she get you to pass she allows you to understand the answers you are asked. I am a confident driver and without Sue I would be lost! Unlike any other driving instructor you will guaranteed, not have as much fun as you do with a lesson with Sue. She helped my friend and I overcome our fears of roundabouts by going round 17 of them on the way to Hunstanton Beach. Thank you Sue and although our lessons are not up yet I will definitely miss them!
