“When I started learning I had never been behind the wheel of a car before, but with the help and patience of Hugh I am here over a year later and have passed my driving test with zero minors, I could never have done this if it wasn’t for Hugh, he was very calm and patient despite me being completely new as a driver and he made me feel very comfortable throughout the lessons”

“I would highly recommend Valley School of Motoring. Hugh is a great driving instructor who picks up on bad habits and provided me with all the resources i needed. He has great knowledge on what he’s doing and is very patient and friendly. When it came to lessons Hugh was flexible and understanding with times. Cheers Hugh!”

“When Hugh first took me on as a trainee driving instructor I was working as a delivery driver, so I’d developed quite a few bad habits and there was definitely room for improvement if I was to pass my driving ability exam. With his patient approach and amazing listening skills, he was able to identify exactly what I needed to become a better driver. His coaching techniques have an exceptional ability to get you to look for the solutions within. By ensuring the answers come from the learner, he is able to increase your confidence levels far higher than you may think possible. Combined with his wealth of knowledge and experience, he really does make you a better driver for life!!! I passed my part 2 test first time, and by continuing to follow his advice I’ve improved even further. Hugh then went on to provide me with instructional training and support and all I can say is if it weren’t for him, I would not have passed my part 3. He was there for me whenever I needed his help, which was a lot! There were times I really struggled and doubted myself but he always offered his support and he never let me down. He continues to help and support me whenever I need it, and I’m positive that I will use him for all future training needs. Whether you are learning to drive for the first time, have a licence and want to improve your ability or are training to become an instructor, you won’t find a better driving school! He has inspired me to become the best instructor I can be, my hope is to one day be as good as him. Thank you Hugh 👋🤪.”

“Can’t recommend Hugh enough he is an outstanding driving instructor would recommend to everyone. He made me feel so at ease in every lesson was always very chatty. Answered all my millions of questions. Hugh had so much patience with me going over things a million times. Making sure he could fit me in every week for my lessons and always around my busy home life. Thankyou so much for pushing my through all my wobbles which happend alot. Honestly I can’t thank Hugh enough if it wasn’t for you pushing me I don’t think I would of ever passed my test (Thank you for not spoon-feeding me)”

“Hugh’s the best instructor, calm, funny and adaptive to the way you learn! I’m not the best at learning straightaway, I’m anxious and get confused easily. Hugh was always happy to explain things consistently and have me do the same manoeuvre multiple times until I was happy and comfortable. Hugh was more than happy to adapt to my weird quirks of learning and encouraged me when I was hesitant. It was important to Hugh I felt comfortable, confident and in control on all roads/situations and I 100% do now. Hughs motto of teaching to be able to drive not just pass a test is 100% true, I feel confident to try to drive on any road now I’ve passed. For myself learning to drive wasn’t easy but I always looked forward to lessons with Hugh and I’ll miss our gossip/driving sessions!
