/ About
I'm James. DVSA-approved driving instructor, based in Sydenham, South-East London. I specialise in intensive courses - 5, 7, 10, or 14 days, finishing with your test on the last day. It's one-to-one, picked up from your door, and tailored entirely to you.
What every review seems to mention is that the lessons are calm, and that I'm reasonably good company across the long hours. I'll take that. Driving is serious - the test is serious - but the week shouldn't be a slog.
Most students book because of a deadline - a new job, a move, an imminent test. I take late-notice bookings when I can. If your test is next week and your instructor's let you down, get in touch.
