I passed my test with Graham on the 4th of November and I honestly can’t recommend him enough! He went out of his way to do a 9am test and thankfully it was all worth it! Thank you for being so patient and helpful! He made me feel very comfortable on the roads which has lead me to be a newly passed confident driver. A big thanks to Lisa and Ian too for helping me find a test throughout this busy time! Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

After passing my driving test a number of years ago with Graham I didn't want anyone else to help my daughter in her learning to drive journey. Graham is such a character, Caitlin clicked with him straight away saying "nothing seems silly and I don't feel daft if I do something wrong" this for me is a huge thing. Graham made her feel at ease. As a parent Graham always kept me updated with Caitlins progress throughout and it was no problem in answering all my regular questions. I do and will continue to recommend Graham as I honestly believe he is the best in the industry and money very well spent.

I just passed my driving test first time today with Graham! Before I started I had been with another instructor that made me very anxious to take up driving again. After being recommended by a friend with similar anxiety issues, I started lessons with Graham. From day 1 he made me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. We took everything at my own pace but he always encouraged me of my capabilities and allowed me to progress even through what were to me terrifying topics in driving. I can honestly say I would not of been able to do this with any other instructor, I owe my success and new driving life to Graham. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!! P.S off to buy my new car

I will start with the team as a whole at GDT on the phones they have wonderful staff who always help you when booking or changing slots around to suit your needs. Then there is Graham, simply a wonderful, professional driving instructor who helped me prepare to take my test, having previously driven abroad, he had some bad habits to kick me out of. He explains everything clearly during your lessons and is gifted with a calm and encouraging manner, friendly, thorough, knowledgeable, encouraging and professional. With a bit of humour sprinkled in 😊 I Can not recommend Graham enough, perfect for beginners/nervous drivers and people like me who have picked up some nasty know it all habits! Anyone taught to drive by Graham is incredibly lucky! Thank you again Graham...

I was very late getting my driving sorted (I'm 38), and as a consequence, was extremely nervous driving and terrified of the practical test. I had attempted the practical test several times before in Bury, and then found Graham's website. Graham helped me relax and focus, where I made mistakes he would explain them to me in an extremely friendly way that put me at ease and allowed me to improve. We even did mock tests where he replayed dashcam footage to show me bits where I had gone wong.
For the actual practical test, we went through everything that made me nervous beforehand and arrived a little bit early; again destressing. I just passed my practical test with 3 minor faults. A big thank you to Graham, I would thoroughly recommend him as a driving instructor.

I can honestly say I wouldn't be able to drive but for Graham and all the Get Driving Today team. It’s very cliche but I honestly believe without his patience and him not allowing me to give up on myself I would of quit learning to drive long ago but he helped me all the way and even managed to help a friend of mine who I introduced to him pass too.
Couldn’t recommend enough.

Graham didn’t just help me pass first time, he helped me build my confidence and believe in myself. I struggled to distinguish between my left and right and he helped me learn them until I didn’t need him to point in the right direction. He never once got frustrated with me or raised his voice and he would make a joke about how cautious I was with the clutch until I realised that I can do it. I was so nervous about driving and if it wasn’t for Graham I wouldn’t be a confident driver I am today. Thank you for everything!

Graham's patience, support and humour all contributed to me becoming a confident driver and having a blast along the way! I couldn't recommend him enough as his understanding and motivating approach made me believe in myself and ultimately led to me passing both my theory and practical test first time! He was great at putting my mind at ease and was amazing at talking me through any tasks that I felt nervous about, which really helped me to practice and improve. I seriously can't thank him enough, he's the best!!!

What can I say about Graham!
My absolute hero! This time last year I had quit my lessons with a previous instructor and decided driving was not for me. Then I found Graham on Google after I typed in anxiety specialist driving school.
I suffer with anxiety, especially when it to driving. I don't think I moved out of second gear through my first few lessons. Graham was fantastic from the very beginning, he has the patience of a saint, ensuring that there was as little stress in my lessons as possible (even if it meant having the greatest showman soundtrack on for the entire lesson)
Graham was understanding and patient through the process and worked extremely hard. Nearly a year on and I passed my test yesterday and have driven all over today including the motorway! I never would have thought when I refused to drive faster than 20mph in those first few lessons that id be zipping down the motorway today.
I know we joked that when I passed, I would have Hugh Jackman to thank but I could never have got where I am without Grahams help and Guidance and I couldn't recommend him enough as a driving instructor.
Big thanks to Graham and Brian (the monkey) and Hugh Jackman if he sees this.

First and foremost, this was easily the best decision I have made. To give some context to my situation, I am 20 years old and I was a nervous wreck driver with bad anxiety and i had failed my test with a previous instructor, I had only 10 months left on my theory test and was in panic mode fearing that i might have to re-do that as well. Then I booked with graham, I had my first lesson at the start of September 2018 and now i can proudly say i have passed (today on the 31st) at end of October 2018. 2 months, yes (only 2 months!!!) with Graham aka (my saviour) and i've passed. Also, if you are in doubt of whether to book Graham or not, then please ( i must reiterate this) PLEASE do not look further, book Graham and save your self time and money, you will go through heaps of rubbish instructors for months on end when you can just pass with Graham in 2. He WILL make you pass, no doubt in my mind. I got Grahams card from a family friend and decided to go for it once and for all, and well, the proof is in the pudding, i have got my license now and i am over the moon. Thank you Graham!!! (and the rest of the staff!!) for helping me get my license, It was impossible without your guidance and encouragement!!.

Can't really give anything less than 5 stars to Graham for somehow getting me, of all people, my driving licence first time round in what was a surprisingly short and painless endeavour. Thank you for your seemingly endless supply of support, patience and questionable road markings! Will be 100% recommending you to anyone who asks.
