My experience learning to drive with City Way has been amazing. I started off as a VERY nervous driver and had gone through 2 instructors because of this. Gary was extremely patient and explained things in a way that made sense, taking the time to make sure I fully understood. When I made mistakes, he never made me feel stupid for making them, which drastically improved my confidence.
Feedback was never negative, always helpful and constructive with a positive outlook. I’ve found that Gary doesn’t just teach you how to pass your test, but also how to drive safely and confidently once you pass. Lessons covered a wide range of scenarios, and feedback was always detailed, which gave me the best chance of passing my test. He’s very professional both in the way he teaches and communicates, for example when booking lessons over the phone, and I would have to strongly disagree with some of the reviews written that state otherwise.
I cannot recommend City Way enough, I’ve gone from not being able to drive over 5mph to passing my test and (most importantly) had fun in doing so! :)
Caitlin Jefferies
As someone who was super nervous about my driving test and driving, after learning with Gary I felt more confident which allowed me to pass my driving test first time.
I made mistakes in almost every lesson but Gary always helped me to realise how to resolve the errors and drive both confidently and safely.
I am so excited to start driving independently which has been a goal of mine for a long time and I almost didn’t think it would happen when I first started my driving journey
edit –
I got out in my car for my first solo drive and loved it. It’s scary that I can go wherever I want and not rely on Ubers or buses. I can finally prioritise training for my running, by taking myself to my run routes.
Henry Freeman
I was able to pass my test first time, thanks to the support I was being provided with whilst learning to drive.
Gary was always happy to help me with any problems or questions I had regarding driving outside of lessons, too.
I would definitely recommend City Way School of Motoring and Gary as an instructor.

Hannah Martin
Gary took the time to explain things properly and encouraged me to think for myself.
I find that the driving lessons at City Way School of Motoring, are more methodical and much better at encouraging independence than had previously been achieved with my previous Driving Instructor.
I will be recommending Gary and City Way School of Motoring to my friends, as I feel that I’m learning a lot in each and every driving lesson, that i’m being continually challenged and pushed, to develop my skills further.

Great for learning to drive. The lessons are very well structured as they are made to help you whatever your level of competency.
I found that the demonstrations provided by the instructor were very useful as they showed me not only how to do something, but why I was doing it.
The instructor is very friendly and understanding if you have a problem with any aspect of driving. I would definitely recommend this instructor to others.

I would definitely recommend City Way School of Motoring to anyone learning to drive, whether that’s a complete beginner like myself or those looking to perfect their skills ready for their test.
I had an amazing instructor, Gary, who was incredibly professional and supportive throughout my training.
As a learner, of course, I made many mistakes, but my errors were fully explained to me, so I was able to make the necessary corrections and passed my test first time!
Christian Omango

Colin Williams
” I decided to use City Way School of Motoring for my driving lessons, due to the reviews they have on their website “
” I have had some driving lessons in the past with another driving school, but I felt like the instructor wasn’t really helping me apart from emptying my bank account “
” I wasn’t really expecting much due to the bad experience I had with the other driving school but Gary really knew what he was talking about, plus his style of teaching was second to none.”
” I will be recommending Gary to friends and family and in fact my wife is due to start with you shortly ”
” It feels great to have passed my driving test ”

“I decided to do my driving lessons with Gary at City Way School of Motoring, as he offered Automatic driving lessons and my sister also passed with him”.
“Having had a bad experience with a previous instructor, Gary was completely the opposite, always encouraging and helping me to improve.”
“Reviewing the dashcam footage was very helpful, as we could discuss the issues that had arrisen, and strategies to improve.”
“I would recommend Gary as he is very professional, provides constructive feedback and encouragement in equal measures. Ultimately sets you to be a confident safe driver.”
Stephanie Chamberlain
Oliver Mepstead
I came to Gary having failed two tests with a previous instructor, and I went with an intensive course.
I passed with no minors in a matter of weeks, a lovely service and very good teaching styles and taking time to explain and being very calm and patient
I would 100% recommend to anyone.
Daniel Morison
I had no prior experience with driving and was quite anxious about learning. After lessons with Gary, I passed with just one minor.
All lessons are recorded to help address problem areas, the car itself is quite pleasant to drive, and practical tests are booked through Gary himself, which made life a bit easier.
He was happy to provide extra lessons to focus on weak points (like driving for 2 hours around a roundabout!) as well as before the test itself, and tailored the lessons to best suit me, like allowing me a warm-up period, as I couldn’t get any driving practice in between lessons”
If you want to follow in Daniel’s footsteps, call Gary on 01634 420103 to take the next step to pass your driving test.
Bryan Osborn
Strict instructor, but very good and precise to the point. Good teaching methods.
Julian Fitz
Being an older learner driver, I was quite nervous learning to drive and struggled with anxiety.
Gary was absolutely incredible, He went out of his way to educate himself on how to approach lessons with someone who suffers with anxiety and adjusted each lesson to accommodate my needs.
Not only is Gary a very good driving instructor who aims to make you a safe and responsible driver, he is also a very kind, caring and genuine person. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Paul White
I Would give Ten stars if I could. As an older driver, Gary was patient with me and had faith, even when I didn’t myself. He had a great sense of humour, too! I passed first time with him. I would 100% recommend him!
Sam Rose
I used City Way School of Motoring, because it had good rating and I wanted a fast way to pass my driving test.
The teaching methods are really good and the methods change to suit you and your way of thinking to make it easier for you.
I think that the video footage is useful as when I thought i done something that was right the footage proved that it was wrong so that you can learn from my mistakes.
I would recommend City Way School of Motoring to my friends, as they are very reliable and very good at teaching you to drive. They will make sure that you pass first time.
Thank you Sam for your comments.
