Achieved my B + E trailer test with Sue today. The training is incredibly thorough to ensure you go into the test safely and with confidence.
There's no way I would have passed as quickly as I did without Sue's guidance.
100% would I recommend Toads School of Driving!

Highly recommend TOAD's school of driving! Sue help my daughter pass her test in December 2018 first time with flying colours! Im sure it was down to the great rapport Sue created with Liv had which helped her relax & find her own self confidence. Sue was patient & helped her focus on areas where she was nervous & clearly it paid off.... NO ERRORS. Thanks a million Sue... Well except, I haven't really seen my daughter since, guess what, she's out driving!

I passed my B+E test first time in autumn 2018 and it's safe to say that it was primarily due to Toad's School of Driving. Sue has been a fantastic instructor with a particular understanding of individual driving peculiarities. Having passed my B test over 10 years ago and in a different country, I had a few of those to get rid of in a short period of time. In particular, I appreciated the following:
- Sue's time flexibility
- Focus on those of my old driving habits that mattered for the test
- Patience in pointing out and reminding me of my unconscious driving behaviour (bringing that into the conscious zone and addressing flaws was key to passing the test)
- Further general tips on safe trailering and driving
Thank you Sue! I've done a few thousand miles with the trailer since the test and have been grateful for the reflexes you've taught me many a times!

I passed my B + E test first time with Sue in November and can't rate her highly enough!!
She has an encouraging and informative way of teaching which helps iron out any bad driving habits you may have picked up from previous years of driving. Her farm is set out brilliantly which makes learning and practising the reverse manoeuvre incredibly easy and gives you a massive advantage when you get to the test centre.
sue made lessons incredibly fun and enjoyable - taking away any stress or worries about towing. I have now done a few solo trips with the trailer since passing my test and thanks to Sue I feel super confident and happy towing by myself! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Toad school of driving to anyone wanting to take their test!

I just passed my B+E test with Sue, FIRST TIME! Training at the farm was amazing , 1 to 1 tutition making the reversing in the test centre much easier as the farm is an exact replica of the test centre. The drive was easier having been taught by Sue and having not developed any bad driving habits. I only had 1 fault which was rolling back on a hill start. Sue made it very easy with her awesome teaching techniques encouraging safe driving with good control of the car and trailer. The examiner obviously liked what he saw and I am delighted with the result. Sue is the best and I would recommend her to anyone !

Ben is a friendly and highly professional driving instructor. I would highly recommend anyone to learn with Ben. He was a calming presence throughout and offered me flexible driving lessons to fit around job in Cambridge. I passed first time In around 4 months. Again, would highly recommend Toad driving school!

I passed my B+E license last week thanks to Sue, from contacting her to passing the test was only 3 weeks. Sue went above and beyond the training I was expecting and you can tell she looks after her car and trailer which makes the whole process much easier. I will be recommending her to anyone who asks me where I completed my training. If you are considering doing the B+E licence and live in Cambridgeshire then give Sue a call!

Within 11 days of first contacting Sue at Toad's School of Driving, I passed my B+E test first time thanks to her expert tuition and guidance. The training received was excellent and prepared me for the trailer test after only a few hours of tuition. On the day of the test Sue gave me the chance to practice the reversing and uncoupling before driving to the test which helped as a final practice before test and calmed any last minute nerves. The training Sue provides also helps provide you with real life guidance when towing loads in future and not just to pass the test. Finally the 4x4 vehicle and box trailer are a very appropriate for doing towing training which makes life easier than using a normal car to tow. Thank you!!

Ben was an incredibly supportive driving instructor who always made me feel at ease in the driver's seat, especially if I was feeling a little nervous. He was always on time when I had a lesson, his instructions were clear and I came out of every lesson feeling as if I had improved. I had a very small time period that I would have liked to have passed and he guided me in a way that I could achieve this. I would recommend him as an instructor to anyone.

Sue has left me feeling very calm and well prepared for whatever I encounter on the roads. She has been supportive but firm and teaches to a high standard.

Sue is a fantastic driving instructor. She is fair but firm and leaves both pupil and parent confident. Sue takes the time to explain any areas that need more practice. I would definitely recommend her.

Sue is an incredible teacher. After having over 30hrs of lessons with another driving instructor I was still a bag of nerves and didn’t feel at all confident behind the wheel and failing a test I was at rock bottom and about to give up on the idea of driving but someone suggested to give Toad a ring.
It was the best decision I could have made the driving lessons are night and day compared to my previous instructor and I wished my first experience of driving was with Sue, straight away she put me at ease and opened up a dialogue where I could explain my fears and bits that scared me on the road. Sue was understanding and began to break down all my fears bit by bit so as not to overwhelm me but to build me up.
Sue is innovative in her technique and really crafts her lessons to help you progress we have gone on foot to walk around difficult junctions to get a better look from different angles and understanding the flow of traffic. My favourite so far has been her sound machine that gives you a sound effect to keep you on track with how well you're doing on observations and it sounds nutty but it really works and its fun.
