Had Ainsley as my instructor with Learn with Vern and I could not recommend him more. As an ex blue light driver he understands the vehicle and roads inside out and he transfers that knowledge extremely well. His approach to teaching made me pass first time.

Amazing instructor, helped me be calm in front of the wheel and supported even when it wasn’t going by way I wanted it to go. All thanks to him why I passed.

Passed my driving test first time and proud to be Rebecca’s first learner. She’s an amazing instructor—very patient, supportive, and clear with her teaching. She made learning to drive feel comfortable and stress-free, and really boosted my confidence. Highly recommend Rebecca to anyone learning to drive.

Honestly could not recommend Vern enough, he’s the most patient, understanding, concise driving instructor out there. I suffer with anxiety and we went through every single thing that would make me feel anxious and we would deal with it step by step until it was no longer an issue and I was confident with anything. Vern believed in me even when I didn’t myself, Vern built up my confidence from not even wanting to get into the car in the first place.

Vern tailors the lessons to exactly what you need, even based on how you’re feeling on that particular day and the methods Vern uses are amazing he gets you to achieve a goal without realising you done it. Vern makes you feel relaxed in the car with humour and can chat to him about absolutely anything, also really good at giving advice. Vern is not just a driving instructor he’s a an incredible person.

Vern is the best driving instructor, I passed with no minors today and I'm over the moon. My confidence has grown so much since learning with him. He's taught me how to deal with my driving nerves and put me at ease even on my test day.

Vern uses an app called my drive time- after you're lessons you can have a recap and write anything you want to revisit, and you can even look at your previous routes which is helpful, there's a bunch of resources too and you can even check on your progress. And it keeps you in check of when your next lesson is.

I would recommend any new driver to learn with vern, no matter how nervous you are you wont be for very long.

See you for the motorway lessons vern 👍😃

Passed my driving test today after a tough personal journey overcoming my anxiety and facing my fears. I could not have done this with anyone else! Vern was patient, supportive, clear and had amazing methods to support learning and make the experience enjoyable. The only negative to passing my test is I'm going to miss my driving lessons and chats with Vern!
I would 100% recommend Vern and his team at 'Learn with Vern' if you are looking for a driving instructor who cares and will teach you safe driving methods for life, they go the extra mile and the results speak for themselves 😊

From the very first lesson, Simon stood out as an exceptional driving instructor. His kindness, unwavering patience, and genuine belief in my abilities transformed not just my driving skills but also my mindset. Simon didn’t just teach me how to drive; he instilled confidence and calmness, making every lesson a positive and enriching experience.

Simon’s unique approach focused on changing my outlook, guiding me to believe in myself as much as he believed in me. His encouragement helped me conquer my fears, and his tailored teaching methods ensured I understood every detail thoroughly. His knack for breaking down complex manoeuvres into simple, manageable steps was nothing short of brilliant.

A standout feature of Simon’s mentorship was his creative approach to learning. He helped me craft an unforgettable acronym for PASS that anchored my focus and motivation throughout my journey.

Thanks to Simon, I not only passed my driving test but did so with confidence and a newfound belief in my capabilities. I wholeheartedly recommend Simon to anyone seeking a driving instructor who goes above and beyond. His dedication and passion for teaching truly make him a driving instructor par excellence.

He’s patient, clear in his instructions, and always calm, even in stressful situations. Vern really takes the time to explain things in a way that makes sense and builds your confidence step by step.

I can't recommend Vern enough! I was very apprehensive about having lessons as I am an anxious person. Vern treated me with kindness, patience and understanding that I will always appreciate! He built up my confidence and reassured me with my endless questions and doubts. I would not have passed without that! Thank you Vern!
