Stu was able to put my mind at ease when nerves took over, very patient, kind and helpful with a good sense of humour too! I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Very reasonable rates, and will teach you how to be a safe driver on the road. Many thanks and best wishes. Amanda”

“Stu was my only instructor and I'm glad it was him!! He was an excellent instructor who made me feel at ease when driving with his relaxed and positive personality and he's affordable. I am much more confident now than I was when I first started. Without him I wouldn't of passed first time or as quickly!! I would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive :)”

“I would highly recommend Stu Ward to anyone - he works driving magic! :) Having been with another instructor for over a year I really wasn't getting anywhere and was majorly lacking in confidence. I hated driving! Within just one lesson with Stu I already felt so much more confident and after just a handful more lessons I have now just passed my test first time! I just regret not having found him sooner! Stu was friendly and relaxed and quickly calmed my nerves. In addition, his teaching methods and techniques were so much easier to understand and apply which meant things that I had been struggling with forever just clicked into place. I'm looking forward to day trips out with the kids now - thanks Stu!! :) ”

“I was with another driver instructor before Stu and I found I really wasn't getting anywhere. So I changed to Stu and he made it so easy to understand and explained everything so clearly! I was so nervous but Stu helped calm my nerves and helped me to pass when I thought I never would! I've already recommended him to some of my friends and would recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to drive, especially if you're really nervous! :)”

“Stu is a amazing driving instructor, he is so profesional and friendly, Before my first lesson I was very nervous about starting to drive but Stu made me feel very relaxed and comfortable in the drivers seat. I feel like I learned very quickly with Stu. At test day I was even more nervous but Stu helped to calm me down and was just great, I highly recommend Stu Ward, a great, friendly instructor, brilliant. Cheers Stu! ”
