Boldmere Driving School really suited me. During all of my lessons I felt really comfortable and after each one, I had improved in some way. Chris was also really punctual and extremely reliable, whom I felt I could really trust. The test itself was as comfortable as possible, since the examiner was friendly and Chris sat in the car which gave me more confidence. I passed my test first time (as did my twin sister on the same day!) Overall, my time with Boldmere Driving School was extremely successful, very pleasant and I wouldn't have wanted to learn with anybody else.          

I really enjoyed my time with Boldmere Driving School. Chris was really friendly, professional and  made me feel at ease from my first driving lesson which really helped me to be confident on the road. Having passed my test first time around (my twin sister also passed first time with Chris on the same day!!) I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone needing driving lessons.  

Thanks so much for all that you've done for Rachael & Caitlin. They could not have asked for a better instructor! Your calming and friendly approach made each lesson a positive experience for them. Thanks again.  

I can't recommend Chris highly enough. From the first lesson he made me feel comfortable driving, despite nerves starting out. I really enjoyed all of my lessons and was able to make good progress throughout, which was very rewarding. Chris always made sure he was flexible, making sure lessons fitted around my other commitments. Thanks to Chris I felt fully prepared for my test and I PASSED FIRST TIME WITH ZERO MINOR FAULTS!!     

I would recommend Chris as a driving instructor without hesitation because he is so patient and understanding. I was naturally nervous before learning to drive, however I always felt comfortable in my lessons because everything was explained clearly to me before I attempted it. I was never made to feel silly for getting things wrong and my queries and questions were always listened to. Before learning with Chris I had no driving experience but have now passed my test first time with only 3 minors! This is down to the brilliant teaching I received - thank you so much!!   

I started lessons with a different school and would dread my lessons coming up and really didn't enjoy them! I started lessons with Chris after multiple recommendations from friends who had all passed with him. I cannot thank him enough for his patience and support throughout my lessons. Chris made my lessons ejoyable and made me feel really comfortable. He never rushed me and wasalways happy to answer any questions or go over anything I didn't undrrstand. He was really caring and gave me all the time needed to properly understand driving! 

He was always on time , never messed mearound and was alwaysable to book lessons around my work schedule and was happy to start and finish lessons from work which was really helpful. I would recommend Chris to everybody. I passed my test firdt time and felt ready to do so! I was never rushed to book my test and did everything at a comfortable pace for me. I would never feel under pressure which is really important. A lovely, modern car which was always kept clean and well maintained.

Thanks again Chris!       

An excellent teacher with a knack for clear communication and an understanding of what a learner driver needs. When sitting my test I was able to expect the unexpected and anticipate problems due to his explanation of the principles behind sound decision making, the same principles that then enabled me negotiate complicated dilemmas as they occur.    

His precise knowledge of the north birmingham area facilitates bespoke learning programme that targets challenging road systems and local quirks alongside individual requirements, preparing not judt for a test but a lifetime on the roads. A perfect choice for learners of any ability, I cannot recommend Chris highly enough. I passed at the first attempt.    

I had previously had a pooe experience with another driving instructor so I was aprehensive about finding a new instructor. However, Chris has a calming presence that instantly made me feel very comfortable and he was always open to questions throughout the lesson. He made sure I understood and followed all of the basics and would show diagrams whilst talking through what I would need to do.

Whenever I made mistakes he would make sure to explain what I'd done wrong and how to improve next time. We would repeat all manoeuvres until I got them right. At the end of each lesson he wouls always summarise where errors were made but he'd also make sure he told me what I'd done well! At the start of the next lesson he would repeat the summary so I knew what my aims were for the lesson (which was always handy as I'd often forget what I'd done the week before!) During the summaries I was always encouraged to ask any questions I had.

As a student who also works part time, I needed an instructor who could accommodate tgis and be flexible with the times / days I would have my lesson so Chris ideal as he'd always check out my availability to fit me in. Chris is very punctual and if ever he was a little late due to traffic he would always text me in advance to let me know - and always made sure I received my full hour.

Chris prepared me well for my test and I passed first time!! I would recommend Chris to everyone.

THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT INSTRUCTOR!!            

Chris is a friend of my dad. FRom lesson one we got on very well, Chris was relaxed and calm whilst still being thorough. Lessons were broken down well making it easy to learn but not getting overwhelmed. Chris was encouraging but never forced you to do anything you weren't ready for. I feel Chris goes beyond teaching you to pass your test and spends time giving you extra tips and advice for driving onve you have passed your test. 

Chris knew when I was ready to take my test and he talked me through everything prior to the test so I knew what to expect - I didn't feel nervous on the day! I passed first time and have since had some motorway lessons with him which is definitely worth doing. I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone wanting to learn to drive,      

Chris was recommended to me by my next door neighbour who had just passed with Chris the previous week. Chris is an excellent driving instructor, he is always giving tips on how to improve your driving. At the end of each lesson he goes over it explainimg what went right and wrong and then at the beginning of each lesson he reminds me about the last lesson. This approach really helps you to improve and see how you're doing. I would recommend Chris as he is a very thorough driving instructor. Thanks to  him I passed confidently :)   

Absolutely BRILLIANT!

As a person with anxiety I never thought I'd be able to drive. Yet, here I am after recently passing my test, thanks to Chris. I could not recommend him enough. He's always calm, friendly and extremely helpful in all aspects of learning to drive. He has helped me to gain my independence and I am truly grateful. Thanks Chris!     

I tried a few driving instructors in the area before I eventually settled with Chris at Boldmere Driving School. He was welcoming, made me feel comfortable and never once made me feel as though I was a burden or 'just another customer'. Chris took time teaching certain techniques and manoeuvres and when I made a mistake, I was never shouted out or made to feel stupid. Instaed, Chris talked me through what I did wrong and we tried it again until I was confident doing the task. As for Chris, he couldn't have done more to ensure I passed my test, it is down to his excellent teaching that I passed first time. I couldn't speak highly enough of Chris and what he does. I thoroughly recommend if you're looking for an instructor.   

I think that Boldmere Driving School was the perfect choice in order for me to pass - and I passed first time. He's an instructor, who as i git to know made me feel more and more comfortable. The lessons are great because Chris tells you what you did well and what you did maybe no quite so well. The next lesson we always improved on things and this made it easier and quicker for me to pick things up. When I took the test, it felt easier than I'd expected as I felt I'd been prepared for it.  

I passed my driving test first time thanks to Chris - he is brilliant! I would highly recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone!

Chris is so calm during lessons which helped to build up my confidence and he never made me feel panicked. His knowledge of driving and the roads is impeccableand he is great at remembering what you have done so you can improve for the future. I'm so glad I chose Chris to teach me to drive - many thanks!    

I found Boldmere Driving School to be excellent. Chris is very patient and explains everything very well. He prepared me well for the test and coached me to drive safely. Chris gave me the confidence to drive! Chris is very flexible with bookings and is very reasonably priced. A big thank you to Chris for helpng me to pass first time!!

I cannot recommend Chris highly enough! Thank you Chris!!  

Chris is very friendly, patient and explains things easily when you  are confused. The fact that we used such a variety of roads to practise made the test a little easier and it really felt just like another lesson! I passed first time.

I would highlt recommend Chris to anyone interested in learning to drive. 10/10!

I decided to learn to drive in my early 40's. I had previously had many lessons with another school but I would dread my lessons. My nerves did not improve at all.

I then decided to follow a recommendation from a past student of Boldmere Driving School. On the first lesson Chris picked up on my fear / nerves straight away. We began my second lesson going back to basics - I never looked back since.

Chris is very professional, friendly and down to earth at all times. he is always on time for your lesson and you get a whole hour of driving and never cut short by 5 minutes here and there. He uses diagrams to explain various road and junction types etc... He will repeat things over and over again until you are confident in a particular aspect of driving. You will make mistakes but will not get shouted at or made to feel like an idiot. Instead he will talk you through where and why you went wrong and will then get you to physically repeat the process again to ensure that you have a clear understanding. He will summarise your lesson at the end whereby he will point out where improvement is needed. He will always finish the summary praising you on all the things you did well.

He prepares you well for your test and he is a big help in calmimg any nerves you may have on the day too. So, if learning to drive is on your 'to do list'  -  do it now with Boldmere Driving School and Chris will do all he can to get you to your goal.

Thanks Chris for being a great teacher!!                   

Chris was recommended to me by four of his past students who have all passed their test with Chris' teaching / guidance - including my mum, Paula Ingram, above!

Chris is an excellent teacher instructor! Very positive and patient at all times throughout the lesson as well as being reliable and on time. He prepared me well for my test so I felt relaxed and confident throughout. I would definitely recommend Chris.

Thank you! 

I would highly recommend Chris and Boldmere Driving School to anybody interested in learning to drive! I have already told all my friends about how great my experience was with Boldmere Driving School. Over the past few months Chris has been brilliant. He is an excellent instructor with a lot of time and patience for his pupils. Chris fitted in my driving lessons around my schedule to ensure that I have my lesson every week when it suited me.

It was also great to have his help advising me when he thought I was ready to take my theory test and my practical test and I managed to pass both first time. I'm really glad that I found Boldmere Driving School and to have my lessons with Chris. I can't thank him enough for all his help!     

I'd like to say a massive thank you to Chris. He was a great instructor and had me passing my test first time really quick. I really enjoyed each driving lesson and I highly recommend Chris to anyone.

I was really confident for my test, all my lessons went really well and Chris was really calm and understanding during them. I'm glad Chris was able to sit in on my test, it put me at ease and helped afterwards when he explained what went well. So thank you again and anyone looking to have driving lessons Boldmere Driving School is the company to choose!

I came to Chris after having had 3 previous instructors and failing my test twice. It was safe to say I was adamant that I would never pass after having been learning on and off for almost 4 years. Chris is reliable, cakm and completely competent in his knowledge in how to teach people to drive and I wish I had gone with him years ago!! He gave me a complete confidence boost in driving and I now feel happy to go out and drive on my own. I could not recommend Chris anymore highly. If you are learning to drive, Chris is the guy for you!   

I am so happy I chose Boldmere Driving School. Chris has been such a professsional teacher with different methods of learning which have helped immensely. When you're learning to drive you need to be with someone who is patient and Chris is extremely patient with you and is happy to take as many questions as are needed. He gets you used to the roads where you may potentially be taken on a test and has laminated diagrams of the road so you can get a better understanding. A friendly, calm and extremely patient instructor! Thank you Chris!    

Chris is a brilliant driving instructor, and I would highly recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone who wants to learn to drive!

Chris helped my confidence with driving, he was always calm and explained things thoroughly to me which helped me to understand 'the road' better! Chris always managed to fit lessons in around me which was brilliant! He was very professional and I am really glad to have had my lessons with Boldmere Driving School.    

Chris was recommended to me by my friend and his brother as they both had passed with him. I'm glad I did, he's a top driving instructor and is very patient. He makes sure you cover everything so you're confident for the test. He always gives feedback on how you can improve in order to pass - I would recommend to anyone who's looking to pass their test. 

Chris is a fantastic driving instructor. I first met him through a friend at school and then upon seeing his reviews online I decided to book lessons with him. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made, Chris is brilliant. He is calm and collected and really builds up your confidence alongside your driving ability. He starts the lesson by reviewing what you did in the previous lesson and going over any issues that may have presented themselves, to make sure you knew what you might need to watch out for.  He then goes over the lesson at the end, both good and bad parts and makes sure you're happy with how it has gone and will answer any questions you may have.

I felt completely prepared when it came to my test and Ipassed first time! He prepared  me for all the possible questions the examiner can ask and taught me everything I would need to know for the test. He is an overall great teacher and bloke and I couldn't possibly recommend him highly enough. Chris is amazing and I can't thank him enough. 

If you're looking for a driving instructor then look no further - GO WITH BOLDMERE DRIVING SCHOOL!!!  

I started taking driving lessons at the age 33 as I had always avoided learning to drive due to personal reasons but I realised that now I have a family it is a necessity. It was really important that I found the right instructor who could be patient with me and I'd be able to explain why I have the fear of getting behind the wheel of a car. 

I was introduced by a friend (Shelley Lloyd) to Chris so I thought I would give him a call. Well, BEST THING I EVER DID!  Chris is a true legend, straight away on my 1st lesson he listened, guided me and it really suprised me how the confidence started to grow with Chris' guidance. Before I knew It my fear of driving was becoming a distant feeling and with every lesson I felt great, Chris was always there to help me if I made a mistake. He is a very calm, professional teacher but he also has a sense of humour side to him which actually puts you at ease at times behind the wheel. He got me prepared and ready for my driving test, and guess what -  I PASSED 1st time!

I can never thank Chris enough not only as my instructor and guidance but also as a friend. Chris' service at Boldmere Driving School is 5 star and if you're looking to learn to drive I would never hesitate to mention Chris to anyone no matter the age or gender. One thing I achieved in life that will stick with me forever thanks to Chris.

I didn't start taking driving lessons until I was 31 as I had never previously wanted to learn to drive. But I realised I couldn't rely on lifts from friends or public transport to get me around forever. I looked at several driving schools before I came across Chris' website. Reading the testimonials from other pupils, I could see that Chris seemed like a good fit.

i was so incredibly nervous on my first lesson as I didn't have the first idea about cars and I honestly thought that it would take me several lessons before I could been think about taking control of a car but I drove on my very first lesson! Chris is so patient, understanding of how everybody learns at a different rate, confident in his explanation of how the vehicle worked. And did I already mention patient? - God, the man should be sainted after teaching me to drive! Each lesson was a full hour of careful and courteous driving; Chris would push you to excel during each lesson but never so far that you didn't feel comfortable. I always felt completely safe with Chris next to me, although I am not sure that he could say the same thing!

Chris' constant reassurance and friendly banter made learning to drive a great challenge, fun and the best thing I have ever done. I have been driving for two months now and you don't realise until you are on your own in the car that there are so many other little things that Chris taught you or said that you think about when you are on the road. He has kept me safe on the road over these last fe months; I almost feel like he is sat reassuringly on my shoulder whilst I'm in the car - giving me guidance on difficult manoeuvres or busy roundabouts.

I would 100% recommend him to anybody who is considering learning to drive.

Absolutley brilliant!

Great time keeping and will always let you know if there are any changes, if he'll be late etc.... Chris has a massive anpunt of patience and makes you feel really relaxed, I never once felt stressed behind the wheel with Chris. I have and will recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone looking to learn to drive and have a professional experience. I passed my test at the first attempt and my mum (Tracy Clair) also passed with Chris.  

Many thanks Chris!     

I would recommend Boldmere Driving School to any of my friends or anybody who is thinking of learning to drive. The lessons were very professional, the time keeping was excellent and it was always a full lesson.  I passed my test with Boldmere Driving School and found Chris to be very patient and always well presented.

Everything was explained things in depth, not only what you were doing but he always explained why - which makes a big difference when learning the rules of the road.

Good luck Chris and may your success continue...... Many thanks!  

I would recommend Chris to anybody, male or female, with any level of experience, confident or not. Chris is calm, patient, thorough and a genuinely nice man!

As a nervous driver with low confidence I am very grateful to Chris for helping me to pass and making me a better driver!

Chris is an extremely calm and encouraging driving instructor. I had no previous experience of driving but my introduction to it with Chris was very positive and relaxed. I feel I have a good grounding in safe and confident driving, despite being generally quite anxious.

I passed my driving test first time - I'm not sure I would have gotten the same result with another driving school. I would definitely recommend Chris as a driving instructor - particularly if you are nervous or anxious about driving.   

I chose Chris after seeing the great reviews online. As soon as we started I felt guided and calm thanks to Chris' teaching. His approach was not only professional but friendly too. All this helped me to pass first time with confidence. I 100% recommend Chris as a professional, realiable teacher.

I am already beginning to miss my lessons.

Before I met Chris I had lost all hope of being a driver - I'd had my previous test terminated and tried 7 different instructors but never felt safe behind the wheel. Chris' calm, professional manner made me instantly comfortable, he was always patient and clear in his teaching. I would recommend him to anyone, thanks Chris!

Chris is a very capable driving instructor. He made me feel at ease and relaxed throughout my tuition and made learning to drive an enjoyable experience. Chris is extremely approachable and friendly and offers easy to understand and accurate instruction. 

I cannot thank him enough for his assistance. I would confidently give Chris 10/10 for his approach and instruction.

Having Chris as an instructor is great as not only does he teach you in such a professional way, you can also have a good laugh with him. Not once did I feel intimidated or stupid if I made a mistake - he just put me on the right path and off we drove again.

I recommend Chris 100% as I passed first time and now I really miss doing my lessons.  

Having found Chris whilst browsing on the inyernet for possible driving instructors, I chose to go with him after reading his reviews as he sounded great! I'm pleased to say that I am now one of his successful pupils and have recommended him to a friend (Jess Stenson) and my sister who are also now having lessons with him. Chris is very friendly and makes you feel calm from the start, giving you clear instructions and despite nerves you find you are able to progress quickly. He was very patient and was flexible to fit in lessons when I needed them. He would always text me if he was delayed and you always get your full hour lesson. 

When it comes to taking your test you feel fully prepared - I would recommend him to anyone as he helped me become a confident and careful driver. Learning to drive with Chris was a great experience and I have now passed with ZERO faults, thanks Chris!     

I found out about Boldmere Driving School from a friend and I'm very glad that I made the decision to use Chris as my instructor. The lessons were very productive and Chris was very patient, easy to talk to and a great confidence booster. This meant that my test was not as scary as I anticipated and I passed first time with only two minor faults!

I would definitely recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone. Thank you Chris.  

I was introduced to Chris by a friend who was also learning to drive with him (Jess Stenson) and recommended the driving school. He was very friendly, easy to talk to and made me feel very relaxed. I would always look forward to a driving lesson as they were very well planned and at the beginning of every lesson Chris would explain what we were going to do and everything was structured very professionally. During all of my lessons ha always remained calm and I never fely under any pressure. He would always ask me if there was anything I wantes to practise and we would cover it in the next lesson. Chris is very easy to talk to and I felt comfortable asking him any questions. Chris was very punctual, he was always on time and never cancelled. After every lesson he would talk me through my lesson explaining any mistakes I had made, telling me what I had done wrong and why.

Prior to my test Chris went through what would happen and answered any of my questions. I had a lesson before the test and we covered everything that I could potentially be tested on to ensure I was fully prepared. He was very supportive and made me feel confident in my ability.

I passed first time and would definitely recommend the driving school to anyone thinking of learning to drive. Thanks again!      

I had been told by my previous driving instructor, who was a police driving instructor, that I will never be able to drive in my life. I then totally lost my confidence and psychologically I was convinced that I would never drive a car. After one year of taking my money, he told me to find somebody else to teach me using only an automatic car - he then stopped my lessons. He used to confuse me with each lesson, telling me I was getting it wrong after telling me to do things a different way during the previous lesson. I dreaded my lessons, feeling I was going backwards instead of forwards.

But then last year a friend of mine (Agnes Winsor) introduced me to Chris as he had helped her to pass her test after several attempts with other instructors - Reluctantly, I decided to give it a go.

After my first lesson with Chris I slowly started to regain my confidence. My lessons were not a burden anymore and I always looked forward to my next one. I actually understood what I was supposed to be doing. Chris supported me every step of the way and this has now paid off - I have passed my test at the first attempt in a manual car. This is all because of Chris for his calm and cool nature. He always found a way of explaining the manoeuvres, so I understood. He is very patient and did not ever shout or ridicule me if I got things wrong. I am now doing my pass plus with Chris which is adding to my experience and confidence to do it on my own.

I will definitely recommend Chris for any person in my situation right now or anybody who wants to learn to drive. Thanks Chris, you are brilliant and I would never have done it without you! 

Chris is an excellent driving instructor, very patient and makes things very clear when you are confused. He is very reliable and gives you all the help and support you need. I would recommend Chris to anyone, first class! Thanks Chris for the quality service.

I've just passed my practical test first time with Chris and have really enjoyed doing my lessons with him! He's helped me through things that I struggled with and has always been very flexible for me. My two brothers also passed first time with Chris.     

Thanks again Chris and good luck in the future.

I was put in touch with Chris after the first company I was with shattered my confidence in a car, I was adamant that I never wanted to drive again.

But after one lesson with Chris I was raring to go! He put me at ease and was absolutely fantastic. He would never get angry if I was to make a mistake and calmly explain to me where I'd gone wrong. I passed my test first time and now happily drive everywhere.

Chris, I cant thank you enough for everything you've done for me and for anybody else who wants to learn to drive?..... Dont look anywhere else, Chris is the instructor you want. Boldmere Driving School is a fantastic company.   

I cant believe that I have passed my driving test! I failed my test twice before starting driving lessons with Chris. I nearly gave up because I didn't think that I would ever pass my test. Luckily, I found Boldmere Driving School on line so I gave Chris a call. I explained that my main problem was nervousness and a lack of confidence.

After a few lessons with Chris I really started to enjoy driving again. He has been helpful, suppportive, patient and friendly. My husband noticed a big improvement in my driving during our practise. So I carried on with Chris and my confidence came back and have now passed my test!

The benefit I got was not only for my test but for my life as am now a safe driver. I will complete the pass plus course with Chris. 

Boldmere driving School was a great choice of driving school as it got me through my test first time. Any questions or doubts I had were answered efficiently and I was helped. I was thoroughly happy with the service I received and would definitely recommend Boldmere Driving School!   

I'd like to say a massive thank you to Chris for the support you gave me during the lessons. I felt so confident behind the wheel as my lessons went on. I also had the confidence that I could ask Chris anything I wasn't too sure about - he was always very calm and explained things in a way I could understand. I would highly recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone thinking of learning. Not only does he have confidence in you but is always on the ball when arranging lessons for you.    

Firstly I'd like to note that I passed my driving test first time with 3 minor faults with the great training and support of Chris. I decided to go with Chris as an instructor as he had taught my sister to drive and she also passed first time with just 4 minor faults. Since her test all she has done is praise Chris so there was no doubt in my mind when it came to choosing an instructor.

When taking my lessons, Chris made it a fun and 'easy going' experience, he made sure I looked forward to my lessons, he was always very flexible and never once did he cancel a lesson. His instructions were always very clear and he made them as simple as possible - If ever I made a mistake he was always supportive and remained calm, he never became frustrated in the slightest.

Towards my test we made a joint decision to to postpone the test as I was not consistent in my driving. We then worked on my mistakes and then with the end result I passed first time with flying colours..... I'm sure it would have been a very different story had we not changed the date.

You may only learn to drive once and I undertand the importance of choosing a driving instructor but you will not be disappointed with Chris - I could spend all day writing this review of how good he was to me and my sister when teaching and supporting us through passing our tests.  

Overall, Chris is a fantastic, encouraging, polite, easy going, calm and respectful driving instructor. He is also extremely friendly and knowledgeable.  I WOULD ALWAYS RECOMMEND BOLDMERE DRIVING SCHOOL!    

I was always lined up to have Chris as my instructor ever since he helped my sister pass over two years ago and I was very excited and eager to learn with him after listening to her reviews. From the very first lesson Chris was fantastic with me, helping me out and working at my individual pace and needs. But more importantly Chris showed a confidence and trust in me!

Chris is a fantastic instructor who makes you feel relaxed and helps you trust in your own ability whilst giving clear and precise instructions helping you to remain calm........ If I'd ever made a mistake, Chris would help me learn from that mistake and help me better myself as a driver. He was very flexible with me and always fitted me in around my busy time schedule and offered me lessons at different times. He was extremely reliable and more importantly patient with me throughout the whole learning experience! I already have and will continue to recommend Chris to anyone wanting to learn to drive...... Thank you Chris!

I was recommended to Chris by a friend and am delighted I chose to be taught by him. I had a limited amount of time to gain my licence due to the start of a new job. Chris was extremely understanding, flexible and accommodating in fitting lessons in for me. I had never driven before and was apprehensive about doing so, but from day one I felt calm and comfortable due to Chris' style of teaching. Chris does not just teach you how to drive but explains in detail the car, but also how to read and understand the road. 

The lessons are broken down into clear stages with a de-brief at the end of each lesson with strengths and areas to improve on, meaning all the lessons link and clear progression is made every week. Chris is extremely  reliable, friendly and supportive throughout the whole process, helping me to prepare for both the theory and the practical test. When it came to the test I knew exactly what to expect which helped me feel calm and confident on the day leading to me passing first time!

It was great being able to deal with Chris rather than a large company, his prices are very competitive and great value for the excellent training you receive. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone as he is a fantastic instructor! 

Chris was recommended to me by a friend of mine. I had never driven a car before but Chris built up my confidence very quickly. Chris would also fit me in around my school hours despite having a very busy schedule. He was very patient with me throughout the whole driving process and I passed first time! I learnt so much in the lessons whilst at the same time having a lot of fun.

I couldn't recommend Chris any more to anyone who is looking to learn to drive....... So look no further, you've found your man!  

Chris was recommended to me by a friend and it was easy to see why as soon as I got in the car with him. Having being enticed by the introductory offer of five hours of lessons for £50, the competitive rate for subsequent lessons was just one of the reasons why I decided to continue driving with Chris. As a student. occasionally something cropped up during the time I would normally have had a lesson. When this happened Chris always tried to fit me in at another time in that same week so I didn't go too long without driving. This flexibility alongside his ability to make lessons a comfortable experience meant my process of learning was not only easy but enjoyable too.

The routes I took when learning were all relevant to my driving test and I was very familiar with where I was driving when I took it. Chris made sure my manoeuvres were all up to scratch and we regularly practised them from early on in the process, which I felt enabled me to feel more at ease when on my test. I was very nervous before taking my test, though in the lesson before we went through everything one last time and Chris instilled me with confidence. On my first attempt, I passed first time with only one minor fault and undoubtedly this was due to Chris' thorough teaching.

Perhaps the best reason for learning with Chris was his unfaltering friendliness, coupled with his thorough teaching methods. Not only does Chris prepare you for passing your test but also for driving in the real world. This has made me far more comfortable uopn my test and I would recommend Boldmere Driving School to everybody! You're a name rather than a number with Chris, symbolised by the congratulations card I received after my success. Thank you!      

Chris was recommended to me by two friends who had recently passed their test first time with him(Hannah Stockland and Naomi Askam ).

After failing my test twice before I decided to give Boldmere Driving School a go. He built up my confidence as I had gone without a driving lesson for several months. He was always willing to fit me in around his busy schedule and around my working hours. He offers excellent value for money, endless patience and advice but also made lessons enjoyable and fun. I would DEFINITELY recommend Chris to anybody looking to learn. 

When I first started driving I didn't have a clue what to do! Chris made things very easy to understand and would answer any questions that I had. My lessons were always very relaxed which really made feel at ease whilst driving. Whenever I got things wrong he was very calm and patient and helped me correct it. The lessons I had replicated what it was like on a driving test so when I took my test I wasn't surprised by anything. Chris only put me in for my test when he knew I was ready for it, which made me more confident that I would pass it. I took my test and passed it first time with ZERO faults!

He is very accommodating, if you need to change the time of your lesson or want any extra lessons he will always do what he can to make that possible. I would definitely recommend Boldmere Driving School to anybody who wants to learn to drive, thanks Chris! 

Chris took me from being a nervous wreck to now a confident driver. He is easy to get along with, making lessons a comfortable and relaxed environment. I was terrified about taking my test but thanks to Chris' encouragement and support I managed to pass first time! I appreciate everything, thanks very much Chris!  

I would definitely recommend Chris to all learner drivers, he is patient and always reliable. Chris made sure I didn't go in for my driving test before I was ready which really boosted my confidence. I got very nervous but due to his support in lessons and his belief that I was good enough to pass I finally did with only two minor faults.  

Thanks Chris, I couldn't have picked a better driving school to learn with.

I would recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone who is interested in learning to drive. Chris always remained calm and explained things in simple terms, making it easier for me to pick up. As someone who suffered from low confidence whilst driving, Chris gradually built this up enabling me to pass my test at the first attempt.

Chris is friendly, understanding and very flexible in making sure the lessons suited me. I couldn't speak highly enough of him and appreciate everything he did for me! 

Using Boldmere Driving School was my first attempt at learning to drive and thankfully my last, as I passed my test first time. From the first lesson right up until the test Chris was very encouraging and patient. He was very friendly and easy to get to know and will lead you at whatever pace he considers to be the best for you depending on your experience. He is realiable, dependable and always gives an overview of the lesson after it has occurred letting you know what you have done wrong but also what you have done right. You then know what to focus on for future lessons.

I would recommend Chris to anyone who is attempting to take up driving lessons. He is a great teacher and will enhance your experience of learning to drive.      

I have recently passed my driving test at the first attempt with just two minor faults and all thanks to Boldmere Driving School! I am now a confident driver and this is all down to the relaxed and comfortable environment Chris provided. I have recommended Chris to several family members and friends and I'm sure they wont be disappointed with the tuition and the competitive prices!  If you are looking for a reliable instructor, then Chris is definitely your man! 

I was very impressed with my driving lessons and I would definitely recommend Boldmere Driving School to others. I feel the lessons taught me how to drive with a calm approach. I was very nervous for my practical test, however I knew that I had been prepared by my driving instructor. 

I would recommend Chris to anyone who wants to learn to drive as he is so patient, reliable and encouraging. He is also the type of instructor to start the lesson on time and finish later with no extra charges, making sure you get your money's worth of learning. Very friendly and approachable too!  : ) '

I passed my test a couple of years ago now.... and I know I would never have been able to pass if it wasn't for Chris. He is a great driving instructor, really easy to talk to and has even taught my brother and sister how to drive. I passed my test first time because of Chris. I expected the test to be difficult but it felt like just another lesson. Now I am a confident and careful driver on the road and it wouldn't have happened if I didn't have Chris as my instructor so THANK YOU!       

After failing my test first time with a different driving school, Chris enabled me to pass second time after just 10 lessons with Boldmere Driving School. He taught me diffrerent methods of completeing the manoeuvres which were much easier to grasp, but he also gave me much greater road confidence. I recommend Chris to anyone looking for a reliable and excellent driving school.

Thanks a lot Chris!!!

I chose Boldmere Driving School because Chris had taught my two older sisters to drive. From the first moment I got into the car I never thought of using another school. Chris is friendly and patient and provides a great environment to learn in. The simple method he uses makes it easy to get to grips with all the manoeuvres and we always drove along planned routes that would be relevant to the test.

Chris was always approachable when I needed to ask questions and would always answer them fully in a way which I understood. Friends have told me that their instructor would get worked up and would shout at them when they made the smallest of mistakes, whereas Chris would remain calm and would explain to me how to avoid making the same mistake again. Even during one lesson I managed to damage the handbrake, Chris just took it in good humour and then had it repaired. 

Chris told me to book my test as soon as he thought I was ready and I managed to pass at the first attempt. I would gladly recommend Boldmere Driving School to any new drivers or drivers who have had a bad experience with another school.

I had taken a test (and failed) after many lessons with an instructor that I felt was only interested in watching the clock and taking my money. My other half recommended Chris to me after she had learnt with him and I have to say it is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

In stark contrast to the other instructor, Chris was genuinely interested in helping me become a good driver, giving superb advice and patient, understanding teaching. A genuinely nice guy who will go out of his way to help you, I wouldn't  hesitate in recommending Chris to anyone. If I had to do the whole process again (which thankfully I dont, thanks to Chris' help) I would have avoided the chain I originally learnt with and would have gone directly to Chris.

I have been having lessons with Chris from Boldmere Driving School over the last few months. I was more than happy with Chris' professional, relaxed and experienced approach. Chris always accommodated my lessons around my job which made it easy to fit lessons in. I passed my test at the first attempt at the Boldmere test centre.

I would definitely recommend Boldmere Driving School and Chris as an instructor....... Thank you!

I enjoyed learning with Boldmere Driving School as I received great teaching which helped me to understand more quickly. On my test I was quite nervous, I put all my concentration in to it and tried not to think too hard that it was a test and more like another lesson. I am proud and happy that I managed to pass first time; this is because of the help and support I received from Boldmere Driving School. THANK YOU!!! I would highly recommend Boldmere Driving School and I am now using them to complete the pass plus course. 10 out of 10!!!   

I had tried several driving schools and felt that I would never pass my driving test. I was then recommended to Boldmere Driving School and thanks to Chris' patience and excellent instructor skills I did pass at the the first attempt with only one driving fault. I will be passing his details onto anyone who wants to learn to drive.

Thanks for everything Chris, I couldn't have done it without you!! 

I would be glad to recommend Boldmere Driving School to anyone! Chris is a nice guy, the lessons were enjoyable and I always received good feedback. I passed my test first time with only one minor fault and am now a confident driver so thank you Chris for everything!!!

A friend recommended Boldmere Driving School to me and I'm really glad I decided to learn to drive with them. I have just passed my test at the first attempt after just a few months of lessons with Chris.... Chris was an excellent teacher as he was always patient, made me feel at ease and confident when driving. Each lesson had a structure and I always felt that my driving ability had improved following each lesson.The manoeuvres were made easier through using reference points which Chris had taught me to use. 

Above all, I have really enjoyed the process of learning to drive and it has been relatively stress free thanks to Chris' friendly approach to teaching. I would recommend Chris to anybody that is considering learning to drive....... Thank you very much Chris, I could not have passed without you! 

For anybody wanting to take driving lessons:

I found Chris through a friend of mine who passed her test with him and I'm glad I took her recommendation!  Before I started taking lessons with Boldmere Driving School I had an awful experience with BSM and lost all of my confidence.  Looking back now I can see the difference in quality of my previous instructor and Chris.  Lessons with Boldmere Driving School are planned very well, Chris is honest, straight-forward and very generous with his time. 

I am very impressed with Chris'' way of teaching. He really simplified things and even a new starter like me managed to learn very quickly. He is very punctual and his committment, patience and expertise are commendable. He really assisted me to gain confidence by analysing and focusing on my key weaknesses. His recommendations are very honest and feedback is very true, based on performance.

It was not an easy task for me to find the right driving instructor. After the first assessment lesson, Chris prepared a meticulous plan for the following lessons. With his guidance and training my driving started to improve after each lesson. His friendly attitude and unique ability to make you feel comfortable whilst driving made my lessons very enjoyable.

Thanks to him I passed my test  first time! I would strongly recommend Chris to anybody that wants to pass their driving test at the first attempt.  

Hi Chris, just thought I'd drop you a line to let you know how I'm getting on after passing my test......... first time!

I've bought a Fiesta, which is about 10 years old but runs very smooth. I love the fact that I now have the freedom to just go and drive whenever I want..... I am getting more confident, but not over confident and taking things nice and steady as you advised in our lessons. I will definitely recommend you to anybody I know who wants to learn to drive. 

Thanks again for all your support during my lessons.  

Would I recommend Boldmere Driving School to a friend or family member? YES, DEFINITELY!

I found my instructor to be motivational, positive and informative. With his encouragement I passed my driving test first time!
