I can’t thank Mario enough for everything he has done for me. He is such a good instructor. Without Mario and all his knowledge and great ways of teaching, I don’t think I would have ever passed my driving test. I would recommend Mario to absolutely anyone, he is incredible at his job.

Keith, Briton Ferry

I left it late in life to start learning to drive, however I had Carl who instilled confidence in myself to do it and despite COVID doing its best to disrupt things, I managed to pass first time. You cannot go wrong with Let’s Drive Wales, superb from beginning to end. Would highly recommend.

Caitlin, Cilfrew

I had a great experience learning with Let's Drive. Carl is an excellent instructor who is outgoing and very easy to get on with. At age 27, I had no prior driving experience before my first lesson and passed my test first time with Carl. Carl was very patient and gave me a lot of confidence behind the wheel. Highly recommended! Thanks so much!

Tom, Skewen

If you’re looking for an encouraging and patient instructor, Carl is your guy! His skill and knowledge are invaluable, and I can see why he was recommended to me by so many. If you want to have a delightful learning experience that leads to passing, most definitely learn with Let’s Drive School of Motoring.
If he can teach me he can teach anyone!

At the grand old age of 49 I thought I'd have another go at learning to drive not really thinking I would do it. But with the amazing patience of Carl my instructor i passed 1st time. Now if he can teach me he can teach anyone let me tell you. 🙂 fab guy and a fab instructor who will make you feel at ease from the start.

A Fantastic Experience!

A Fantastic Experience!

Ieuan, Briton Ferry

It has honestly been a fantastic experience learning to drive with Carl! He is a fantastic and experience instructor and a spectacular person! He has unlimited support and patience (i lost count of the amount of times I did the same manoeuvre over and over again and he only offered support and advice)! He is a fantastic instructor, an overall fantastic person and the only downside to going with Carl is that you'll miss him when you pass. Thank you so much for everything Carl
Patience of a Saint!

Patience of a Saint!

Jordan, Cimla

I couldn't have asked for a better driving instructor. Carl had the patience of a saint, was always encouraging, positive and brought humour to every lesson. I had the worst nerves ever and would never have passed if it wasn't for Carl. Brilliant instructor. Can't recommend Carl enough! Thanks again!
The best by a mile

The best by a mile

Amy, Bryncoch

I had tried learning to drive with a few instructors before going with Carl, and he was the best by a mile. Very friendly and approachable from the start. I had a very good instructor/learner relationship with Carl. He was very patient, encouraging and supportive, while also bringing humour to the lessons which put me at ease. I always looked forward to my lessons with Carl, we always had a laugh, it was like sitting next to a friend I'd known for years. I'm over the moon to have passed, but will definitely miss our lessons. I would highly recommend Lets drive Wales to anyone xx

Daniel, Neath

Brill Instructor, Great guy. He was brilliant throughout the whole process, addressing any concerns I had during my lessons and tailoring each lesson to ensure I was comfortable and confident for my test. As well as being a brilliant instructor he has been a great laugh during the lessons and was easy to communicate with, both during and outside of the lessons. Overall, it's been a pleasure, couldn't have wished for a better instructor, loved every minute.
Very Happy

Very Happy

Ryan, Birchgrove

Carl was the best driving instructor I could have asked for, I was such a nervous starter but he made me feel at ease and safe straight away. To say I was terrified of driving in my first few lessons is an understatement but Carl managed to turn the girl scared of second gear into a confident driver a lot quicker than I thought was possible! I highly recommend Carl for anyone wanting to learn, he was a great, friendly teacher who puts you at ease and is very easy to get along with. I'll genuinely miss our lessons as they were a pleasure to do, but I'm extremely happy to have passed and it's all thanks to Carl and his brilliant teaching!

Thank you Carl for all your help and I will be recommending you to my family and friends
