A great pass for Jacob on his first attempt!!

Despite being almost overcome with emotional stress as the test unfolded, Jacob held his nerve and was righteously rewarded with a pass result once he made it to the finish line.

We had a brilliant experience with the examiner from Wigston test centre, he helped Jacob feel at ease and took the pressure off when rightfully there was no need to feel any at all.

Like most learners, Jacob had good days and bad days whilst on his learning journey, but progress really shone through in the final weeks where mistakes became less frequent, less major and his standard of driving was far more consistent.

All it took was a bit of hard graft and dedication to the task at hand.

A well deserved pass. Stay safe out there dude.

What a way to start the week.

Blue skies, beautiful weather, and a fantastic pass for Connor.

Test day seemed to attract every road user to come and spectate as Connor found himself on rather busy roads, but he handled it like a pro, even calmly circumnavigating a road closure which saw us take a slight detour that prolonged the test just that little bit longer.

But it all payed off. Connor has been diligent, consistent and thorough in his lessons with me over the last few months. His inquisitive brain and thirst for knowledge meant he was always asking interesting and thought out questions. These questions were vital ingredients that allowed him to develop as a driver. There's so much to learn on the road that it's almost impossible to cover every base, but despite a rather cluttered collection of stones that lay in front of him, Connor made sure that most of them got upturned.

I will miss the interesting conversations we shared and our common interests in everything from Formula 1 to science and physics. I wish you the best of luck for your next phase at University and have no doubt at some point in the future you'll be working on a groundbreaking project at the forefront of human advancement.

Safe travels and see you around.

Over the moon for this one!!

Finally, after much blood sweat and tears, Lex pulled off an achievement she had been reaching for like nothing else.

Lex reached out to me after being on the end of some heartbreaking setbacks whilst she was with another instructor. I could tell straight away she had the talent, she just needed that extra boost of confidence.

I told her that if she really wanted this then the only way was full send. Full commitment, full determination, full perseverance.

She took my words to heart and brilliantly listened, adopted and practiced every little bit of advice I could impart to her.

I must admit I was nervous on test day because she deserved this. All the hard work she had faithfully commited to deserved a reward. And it was a reward she got!!!

Well done on passing with a brilliant drive, I told you I would bet my house on you passing and you proved it.

Happy driving and hope to see you soon.

Another first time pass!!!

This one by Arrian, who has been an absolute pleasure to teach.

He took on board all my advice and, just as I had instructed, drove his test like a grandma plodding about the area.

Never has such an achievement been so... Boring. But that is EXACTLY how to pass a driving test.

No drama, no theatrics, no excitement, no heroics.

Just pure ex*****on.

Aarian understood this to the letter and, following his test said "that was easy."

But that's because you made it easy brother!!

All of your hard work, diligence, appetite for learning and constant self application and improvement paid off. Even those mock tests with 4 majors and a page full of minors were all part of your learning, a journey that resulted in you passing first time with ease.

I will miss our lessons and your clever, insightful character, but can now be assured that you'll be safe on the road. Well done!!

Massive congratulations to Jess Michie on passing her driving test today FIRST TIME!!

This has enabled a great amount of gloating to her household, as everybody else passed second time, something I'm sure she'll remind them of every time they make a comment on her driving.

In truth, there is barely a comment to be made as with only 2 minors and a relatively fast learning progression her result today stands out as one of the best passes I've had to date.

Jess is mature beyond her years and knew her own potential and what she was capable of before even I did. Her experience driving tractors on the farm definitely put her on the right track for success and she took all of my advice onboard without question.

Your result is testament to your hard work and brilliant attitude. Enjoy your freedom and every moment on the road.

And enjoy your Top Gear style cheap car challenge road trip vacation!!

And we are off and running for 2026!!

Alfie gets the first pass of the new year after a terrific drive in some very wet conditions.

It was a just reward for the hard work you've put in and very well deserved.

That's 3 out of 4 for this group of friends after I got Brandon and Owen over the line last year and the year before. Just Harry to go!

Enjoy the freedom and good luck at Uni!

A superb result for Ethan this week as he passed with a remarkable achievement seldom seen and hard to obtain - a Pass with 0 minors!!

A perfect score. A perfect drive.

I have only ever seen 2 perfect test scores in my time as an instructor. That just shows how hard they are to pull off. I've got close many times, with only 1 or 2 minors. The first person to nail the elusive Zero was my very first student Kuda. Talk about setting the bar high! I've had countless passes since and didn't know if I would ever see one again. Until Ethan.

After having a challenging journey up to this point... A couple of setbacks with other instructors caused him to temporarily give up hope. But Ethan was recommended to me by a former student and in the words of his mum "shame we didn't find you sooner". After only a handful of lessons and a tight deadline to get test ready, our brief time together was all you needed to finally get across the line. To do it in such a spectacular way was even more special.

Receiving hugs from mums and nans crying tearfuls of joy is what makes this job so heartwarming, wholesome and leaving a lasting feeling that we are helping to change and improve lives.

Enjoy your freedom and your car Ethan. You earned it.

Congratulations to Lewis on a brilliant first time pass!!

One of the smoothest and well executed test runs of the year.

From the moment you jumped in to my "French s*** box" I could tell you had a natural affinity to driving. You learnt the roads with relative ease but by far your biggest and greatest character trait was your perseverance. We knew you were ready long before your test date, and even though you had to wait you kept applying yourself and getting better and better. Passing first time was a just reward for all the hard work you put in and it all paid off.

Above it all though was a genuinely great person to drive with and we may have started as clients, but we ended it as friends. Look forward to taking you on a track day sometime soon!

Happy driving and good luck with your landscaping business.

Jake makes it 4 out of 5 for August.

Cruising around Europe instead of crusing around Wigston in the build up to your test might not be the greatest pre-exam preparation, but by gosh it must have been a good way to take your mind off those test days nerves which all seemed to resurface the closer we got to the test centre.

They say that learning to drive is like learning to ride a bike... You never really forget, and this certainly proved the case for Jake who drove brilliantly despite a few touch and go moments throughout the test route.

Congratulations on your first time pass. Welcome to the club!

Thanks for teaching me so much about the world of steam trains and all things railway, I enjoyed soaking up your knowledge as much as I enjoyed teaching you everything I knew about the road.

Hope to catch you in a pub somewhere nearby and share tales of adventure over a good pint.

Happy driving.

Another first time pass, this time for Owen.

You had you're own challenges to overcome but tackled them with confidence, determination and a belief that you would succeed.

I always said on our lessons that I reckoned you would be someone who just pulls it out the bag and brings your A-game on the day. And you did exactly that!

Despite a tricky examiner, you kept your composure and drove brilliantly. We left with what we came for - a well deserved certificate in hand.

Good luck out there kid.
