Welcome to Marks Driver Academy

After a 2 year gap between passing my test and driving for the first time, Mark gave me the confidence to restart driving again. I have experience with a handful of other instructors prior to Mark, and I can hand on heart say that he was the best by far. Mark made everything very easy to understand and was calm, friendly and full of praise the entire time. I cannot thank him enough for the invaluable lessons he gave me.

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 has a kind and supportive instructing style that genuinely helps to build up your confidence in your own driving ability. He is easy company in the car, immediately putting you at ease. Aswell as being upfront and honest about what needs improving, he is quick to pick up on what you’ve done well. Mark will push you to be the best driver you can be, while offering continual reassurance and a “you can do it” attitude. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of driving, while communicating this in a way that is easy to understand and put into practice. All round, a very excellent instructo

Mark put me at ease right from my first lesson and knows how to adjust his lessons so you get the most out of your time. Mark got me to a pass where my previous instructor made me feel like a failure.

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

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 will guide you and support you with everything, and he is the person to go to not just to pass your test, but to become a proper driver.

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.

Thank you for everything, being a motorcyclist for the past 4 years I proved to be a challenge for Mark, bringing lots of bad motorcycling habits to the steering wheel was certainly worth a giggle, but nonetheless Mark trained them out of me and got me through my test with flying colours! Excellent instructor, full of knowledge and experience, he’s got a license for nearly everything, possibly even for a tank! I can’t rate him enough, incredibly patient, and also being a fellow motorcyclist and instructor I got on extremely well with him and he understood me because of it, which was an issue I had with past instructors! Extremely grateful for everything hes done for me, even having a driving lesson the day after Christmas! Service is spot on, Ill always recommend him! Corny jokes also included in the service at no extra cost! Thanks again Mark!

Thank you very very much indeed. You are an excellent driving instructor I have met. Thanks for always being kind to me and teaching me properly having realized my weak points. In a short period of time you taught me everything needed and encouraged me when I was disappointed with two other instructors before I came to you. but for your help and guidance I don’t think I would have been able to make it. you are a divine.
