Welcome to Marks Driver Academy

It is one thing to be a teacher and another to be a coach, the difference being one of them is merely a guide through the occasion. It is without a doubt that I can declare Mark a coach to such matter, a person who follows your progress personally and professionally, all whilst giving you valuable advice and instructions. You can expect Mark to keep you safe on the road and tutor you with his best effort so all you need to do is clear your head and Mark will take care of the rest. Ever so grateful for passing on my first attempt.

I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU! For everything you have done fir me! Being patient throughout all my lessons & for teaching me one of the most important skills I will need! Thank you for being a fab teacher! I really appreciate it.

Mark is a really nice guy he knows his stuff when it comes to driving and vehicles he is calm and collected and always up for a laugh

Mark’s instruction is certainly thorough, making sure all the bits you need to know, you know. Inspiring confidence in my driving, knowing I was ready for my test when it came about. So glad Mark was recommended to me. A job well done.

Mark is a great instructor working to the pace of the learner but stretching them in a positive way to ensure timely passing of their practical tests. I have used Mark for D1 and +E training of drivers whilst I was Transport Manager at Gresham’s School and privately my Daughter and now my son for their cat B tests. Thanks Mark.

Mark was the most calm & kind instructor. As someone who suffered a lot from nerves, especially when learning to drive, I found his teaching methods very supportive & encouraging, & as proof of their validity, I have now passed my test!!! Mark made everything easy to understand & made sure in every way possible, that I was prepared for my test, mentally & practically & we even had some laughter a long the way. I’d recommend him to anyone.

Passed my cat B+E test today with only 4 minors which I was quite pleased with. I enjoyed working with Mark as I also did my cat B test with him and I also plan to do my cat c with him. This will also give me cat c1 which I will be getting my mum to pay for it as she loves me lots! The overall teaching grade I would give Mark is a solid 10 because you can have a laugh with him and still learn. He’s a nice guy and buys you food adn a snack every now and then. I see him as more of a friend than a driving instructor because he’s casual.

In times where people are extremely quick to focus on negatives it gives me great pleasure to give praise where it is due!! I am a secondary school teacher and am very impressed with Mark’s abilities to get the best out of you! He is extremely helpful and was able to get me to test standard in a short time. After spending two days on the road with Mark I passed my PCV test with two minors. Excellent work Mark and many thanks!!

Mark was very flexible and helpful when arranging the theory test and delivery of the DVD and relevant book as a learning resource to my house – that’s before even meeting him! He adapted the driver training to my individual needs, experience and ability which was based on clear experience. I was fully prepared for the test (which was passed first time!) which was aided through good selection of routes when learning and honesty throughout. I would thoroughly recommend Mark and am already looking at booking another category license in!

Mark has done an amazing job teaching my son to drive with a semi-intensive 11 weeks from the first lesson to pass date!! He has a fabulous sense of humor so he put my son at ease straight away while being happy to keep myself informed of how well my son was getting on. Because he was such an amazing teacher, my son’s test was brought forward 6 weeks. My son is also a confident lad so this helped him. I, on the other hand, was a bag of nerves on the actual test day, But, as ever, Mark kept the nervous mummy informed of the start and finish of my son;s test via text message and even let my son borrow his phone to ring me once he passed as his own mobile was broken. My son is now about to embark on his trailer license with Mark. I highly recommend him for all types of ability.
