Welcome to Marks Driver Academy

Mark is a real people person and understands your specific needs as a learner driver. He is a great teacher and knows how to get the message across in a positive way. His calm nature and occasionally wicked sense of humor puts you at ease behind the wheel and his honesty means that when he says your ready, there’s a good chance he’s right.

I feel privileged and delighted to have had Mark as a driving instructor. Mark taught me from start to finish and allowed me to develop and improve at my own pace. I really struggled at first but ended up passing with only two minor faults. I would highly recommend Mark as a driving instructor. I felt completely comfortable in his car from the get go. The way Mark taught the lessons were at the perfect pace, controlled and incredibly clear on what I should do to progress. It couldn’t have been made any better. His patient and methodical approach to teaching helped me to gain the driving skills, not just to pass the test, but for life! Thank you ever so much, Mark.

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’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 very pleasant man who at no point during my lessons made me feel pressured or uncomfortable. I enjoyed my lessons and Mark spent as much time needed the day before my test to ensure that I was happy with everything. His prices for lessons are sensibly priced and he travels to you.

Thank you Mark, could not have done it without you.

I couldn’t have passed my driving test without Mark, not only has he improved my driving but he has also changed the way I feel about driving. He showed high levels of patience with me and I always felt relaxed in my lessons with him (apart from the odd hill start), massive thank you to Mark for getting me on the road with only 1 minor 🙂

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!!

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!

I worked with Mark over a period of several months when attempting to achieve my D1 license. Mark was always very approachable, supportive and helpful despite (to begin with) having never met. I was provided with all of the resources I needed in order to be prepared for the theoretical side of my D1 and if I ever needed any help or clarification, I always found Mark to be approachable both via email or telephone. Once I had passed my theory I was able to receive some lessons in the vehicle itself. Mark was very honest and helped me to refine my skills so that I was prepared for my test. I think it would be fair to say that after 10 years of driving my car, I had developed some bad habits but with his supervision and guidance, Mark was able to teach me some new things and refine some old so I was able to pass my D1 test first time around.
I very much valued the support and lessons I received, and I would highly recommend Mark as a driving instructor.
