Last Wednesday I passed my test with zero driving faults - a year ago even having the courage to contact Sue and book a lesson was a challenge. Throughout our time together she has been amazing; always proffesional, kind and understanding. As well as safe driving practices she taught me essential techniques to cope with test nerves and the power of positive thinking. Frankly I'm devestated that I've passed my test because that means our lessons have come to an end.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this driving firm, and in particular Sue, to anyone.

Thankyou so so much xxx

Learning to drive with Toads School of Driving has been great. Sue was always very patient, informative and in general good fun to be with. For this reason I always looked forward to my driving lessons. I think the main thing about the Toads, however, is how well they prepare you for your test in addition driving independently afterwards. I am now looking forward to Pass Plus!

Toad school of driving has a group of wonderful instructors. Sue has taught me so many things in my lessons. Not only do I now feel safe and more confident when driving but I also really enjoy my lessons because We also have fun. At first I wasn't confident at all but since sue has changed that all I want to do is to carry on having loads of lessons. Not only is she a brilliant instructor but she is also a good friend. So glad I chose the toad school of driving to do my lessons with. Would recommend them to everyone. Thanks again jay x

Toads School of driving has been very helpful with very good instructions. I've just learnt how to reverse into car parking spaces on both the left and right, turn the car round to face it in the opposite direction and been on the dual carriageway in the dark on my second lesson ! I've mastered the gearbox and learnt that the speed limit is 70mph not 60 on the dual carriageway ! Sam

I would like to write few words: " The driving rules and regulations over here are much more complicated than that are in Nepal, however, my instructor, Louise, always keep on boosting me to built up confident. Further, during the lessions, I am getting aware of minor to major rules and regulations which are very important. In short, I am very happy to learn driving in this institute. Thank you."

"THANK YOU!!! honestly could not of passed my test today without you. not 1... but 2 bloody examiners in the car, and an emergency stop.... nice!
You're brilliant Sue. In the last 4 months you've kept me calm, stopped me throwing my toys out the pram, listened to my hissy fits... all at the same time as teaching me to drive safely! You've given me such confidence, and nothing has been too much effort for you. Thank you for the early morning lessons to suit me too (sorry!)
I cannot recommend you enough... bloody legend xxx"

I really loved my lessons with Sue, and will now miss seeing her every week! She was a brilliant driving instructor and with her I passed first time. Even though I would get really nervous when I first started learning she helped to keep me calm and I now feel much more confident and safe driving. I would recommend her to anyone, she’s amazing!

Well here i am again writing on this ladys web page. Once again what can i say about Sue. She is just brilliant at her job, gives her students 110% all the time. My son has just passed his test first time and what a surprise i had as i didn't even know anything about it. Very sneaky the pair of you. Anybody who is looking for a driving instructor should go with Toads as i can not praise this lady enough for what she has done for my two children. Not only is she a brilliant teacher to the kids she is now a good friend of the family. Keep the test rates going Sue and we miss seeing you at 7am in the morning. Police awareness or should it be test. Ha Ha

I cannot get over how much fun driving is, especially when I learnt from such a great teacher ! I got so much experience.. even if I did only have 14 lessons ! It was a great experience and to pass both theory and practical tests first time makes me even more happy that I chose to go with Toad ! I cannot wait to look further into the Pass Plus and spend some more time with the fabulous Sue ! Many thanks Emily

I came to Sue very very very very very (i could go on) nervous. I had a very bad experience with my previous instructor and really thought i had no hope... how wrong i was!! How do you describe Sue... hhmmmmm... she is one of my best friends, she is my agony aunt, she is crazy and absolutely hilarious... i didn't stop laughing on my lessons... she made me feel 100% comfortable and confident and oh yes she was the best driving instructor EVER!!! I passed my theory and practical first time, and all within 5 months- bare in mind i was terrified and had no confidence. I will definately keep in contact with Sue because she's a fantastic friend and just so lovely to be around... we even went out for Chinese after driving lessons!!! If you have any fear or any bad experience, you have found the right instructor right here... look no further!! Thank you Sue... I'm so glad i decided to drive with you, and i will miss the great times we had, oh and i will miss the car... AMAZING!!!

Sue is an encouraging, patient instructor who makes lessons both enjoyable and educational. Her positive attitude cannot help but rub off on you, my level of skill and confidence in a car grew throughout the course of my lessons. I now feel confident and safe in a car. I would recommend anyone to learn to drive with Sue not only because her instruction is fantastic but because her car is awesome too!!

Sue papworth WOW!!! Probably the best instructor out there. I started driving with Sue in April and had 12 lessons - I always learnt something and had a laugh too. I took my test at Chesterton Road and passed first time with 2 minor driving faults, none of that would have been possible without the help from Sue. Thank you

Sue is a fantastic driving instructor. I passed my test first time in sixth months with only 1 minor fault. She makes the lessons really enjoyable and gets you trained to drive on all kinds of roads not just in town. She teaches you to drive for life and I definitely recommend 'The Toad'.

Thanks again laurie x

Sue is a wonderful teacher, I always looked forward to every lesson, and I felt I had really progressed after each one. She is extremely dedicated and enthusiastic about her job and it really shows through her teaching. I would strongly recommend Sue to anyone who wants to learn how to drive for life, not just to pass their test. I feel as though I'm confident and a safe driver and I will never forget the tactics that were drummed into my head !! I had lots of fun learning to drive, the lessons were always more diverse and exciting than just driving around Cambridge and test routes. And not to mention the Mini with the giant Toad on it ! It was a pleasure to drive with Toads School of Driving. Thank you so much !

Sue has been a fantastic and caring teacher. I have had so much fun in my lessons. I've enjoyed driving to Aldeburgh and eating freshly picked strawberries. Although I've had fun, I have also learnt so much and now feel totally confident in my driving. I passed first time with no minors as have 2 of my friends also taught by sue, so she really must be good! I would recommend her very highly and will miss her lots. Anna
