I feel very fortunate & privileged to have began my driving career with Brighton Driving Lessons & their instructor Steve Davis. Throughout the the whole time period I spent learning with them, Brighton Driving Lessons provided everything I needed to develope my driving skills, and given all the essential knowledge required to see you succeed to a life time of succesful driving & a sucsessful driving test too. As I mention earlier about feeling fortunate to have learned with Brighton Driving Lessons, I do so for the pure quality of tuition & experience I received from all the lessons I had with them, & that I know that this kind of quality in driving lessons is not offered by all driving tuition companys available. The key factors I found most essential about Brighton Driving Lessons' tuition is the patient & positive nature of how the instructor Steve Davis contructed the lessons in which he made humorus, and always a fun experience whether you were doing well in your lesson or experiencing areas of difficulty- it was always taken with a shine & only the highlights mattered, and the areas that needed developement were noted to acheive as goals. These qualitys in the process of learning any new skill are essential & particularly for driving, and in becoming a sucessful driver too - So that is why I would always recomend Brighton Driving Lessons for the best driving tuition. read more

Steve's friendly and relaxed method of teaching makes you feel really at ease and calms any nerves you might have about driving. His patience is amazing and he knows how to deal with any situations where your confidence might have taken a blow, or when you're feeling anxious. It got to the point where I just felt like I was driving with a friend in the car, which freed my mind up so that I was able to really concentrate on my driving. His approach to structured, manageable lessons, coupled with his friendly and relaxed demeanor were absolutely critical to my success in passing the test first time. I honestly couldn't recommend Steve as a driving instructor highly enough, and have passed his details on to anyone I know who doesn't yet know how to drive. If you are looking for driving lessons in Brighton, book with Brighton Driving Lessons! It's just a shame he's a Millwall fan. read more

If anyone is looking to learn to drive then i would definatly reccomend Brighton Driving Lessons!!!! I passed first time just a few days ago, after just a few months of lessons, and now feel extremely safe and confident on the roads due to the excellent standard of teaching. I feel that my instructor at Brighton Driving Lessons taught me to be a great driver for life - rather than just teaching me to just pass the test!! I enjoyed all of my lessons, and was filled with confidence. In all, I couldnt have asked for a better instructor, he was flexible, my lessons were always fun yet structured so i always knew what I would be learning that day. I was filled with confidence and came of out every lesson feeling like i had significantly progressed alot since the last!! I wouldnt hesitate to reccomend Brighton Driving lessons to anyone! ..Happy driving :D read more

Today, I passed my driving test thanks to Doug from http://www.brightondrivinglessons.com/ After failing two tests with a different instructor and quitting eight years ago, I needed to start from scratch. I called Doug, told him my situation and things I'd found difficult in the past. We got something booked in straight away and I even learned a few things whilst on the phone. Doug has fool proof methods to make driving simple, great advice, and will bring you BEYOND the passing level. (He's also a laugh and very easy to get on with!) I highly recommend Doug, and am sure that if I'd have started my lessons with him, then I'd have passed the first time. After finishing lessons today, he also told me that if I need any help with looking for a car or insurance, then don't hesitate to get in touch. It's needless to say that I'm recommending him to everyone! read more

I passed first time too!!. I had five lessons 17 years ago and gave up...though this isn't for me. End of last year I decided it was time to try again, what a difference! With in a few lessons I felt really confident and really started to learn to drive. Over the course of lessons I encountered a couple of things that I found tricky but I Steve never made to feel silly or slow, I was constantly encouraged and we went over them again and again until after not too many lessons, I took my test......and I passed first time!!! (still very excited and cant believe it). I have a young child and throughout all my lessons I imagined one day having my son sitting in the car with me. Steve made it very clear that he was teaching me to drive safely and confidently and well as teaching me to pass my test. I wouldn't hesitate in recomending him.Thanks Steve. x read more

I would have given it 100 stars if I could ! Awesome driving school ,I took the driving test four times before and I never thought I would pass it, I really thought of giving up. however my theory test was going to expire in June, therefore thought I give it another chance. I came across Brighton driving lessons on the net one month after excellent instructing from PAUL I GOT MY DRIVING TEST. It was my happiest moment I am very grateful for this driving school. As for Paul, He was an excellent instructor he is very good at giving feedback and he is also very encouraging, he helped me regain my confidence and put a lot of trust on my driving skills. I am so grateful for him I never imagined myself getting the test but finally I did. I would highly recommend this school to anyone do not think twice. read more

I have just completed a session of refresher driving lessons with Steve and cannot recommend him highly enough. Last year I gave up my car after having lost my confidence in driving due to personal reasons. However, just recently I decided to give it a go again after having read some very complimentary reviews on Steve's website. I was not disappointed - Steve is friendly, calm and relaxed and his tuition was most informative and more importantly - fun. I learnt a lot - which is not surprising since I took my test more than 30 years ago! We highlighted my main driving concerns and Steve structured my lessons around these and in no time at all my confidence returned. I have no hesitation in recommending Steve - even if you are not a complete beginner !! read more

My experience of learning to drive with Steve has been a pleasure from start to finish. I put off learning to drive for 18 years believing I would be a terrible driver but after a personal recommendation I plucked up the courage to call him and 6 months later I passed first time! Steve is a very laid back guy and with his constant reassurance and encouragement you feel that driving is absolutely within your grasp. He is very methodical in his teaching method which is very carefully planned out and thought through so that you never feel you're asked to do something you're not ready for. I really enjoyed hanging out with Steve and will miss seeing him every week. Highly recommended, fantastic instructor, call him now - it'll be the best decision you make! read more

I had been learning to drive 6 months with another company and was having no success before being recommended to Steve at Brighton Driving lessons. After being in a car with him for 5 minutes my attitude to driving changed completely. I changed from being a nervous and insecure driver to being completely comfortable driver with full confidence in my own ability. This was all down to Steve's relaxed but firm approach which enabled me to learn to drive in a calm environment and I came to look forward to my lessons each week. I passed my driving test first time and with minimum fuss which was all down to the previous weeks prep with Steve. I would recommended him to anyone as he tailored completely to my needs, was reliable and nice to be around. read more

I came learn to drive quite late and was apprehensive about how I would get on with my instructor. Paul made me feel very at ease and was never condescending or patronizing in any way. Paul is very patient and teaches in a way that is easy to grasp, he is calm and always reassuring. Paul focuses on the positives for the most part and I found that great for building my confidence. I passed third time; after my first test Paul helped put everything right and iron out those crucial inconsistencies. I was really unlucky on the second test, and third time I passed. I feel I will be a better driver, sensible and assured thanks to Paul. He is also a genuinely stand up guy that made my lessons a pleasure. Tomasz Jaxa-Chamiec read more

Although I have no basis for comparison, Steve is a brilliant instructor, and it is impossible not to get along with him! Steve has a very calming influence, which I found extremely helpful during some of the more anxious moments I experienced when learning to drive. I Have lots of friends who have told me horror stories about previous instructors they have used, and I can gladly say that Steve did not present with any of the negative behaviours I have been informed one can experience when learning to drive. Steve is a great instructor and also a great bloke too. I would highly recommend his services to anybody looking to start their driving lessons. Especially if you are of a nervous disposition like me!! read more

I would recommend Brighton Driving Lessons to anyone and everyone. Paul Jones was a great instructor - I've had a few in the past and he was the first who really got the information across whilst helping me to feel relaxed and in control. Paul is calm and professional but also very relaxed and friendly - he always notices the risks in the environment; both the ones you create and the ones beyond your control, but he guides you into learning how to prevent them happening again / avoid them more appropriately without making you feel silly or more nervous. I'll be going back to do my Pass Plus! read more

I had a limited budget, and limited time, but thanks to Doug's relaxed approach and careful instruction it was a breeze. Passed first time after a couple of months with only 5 minors! I had two previous instructors with other companies and couldn't get along with them, but after one lesson with Doug I found I had no problems and that I would be sure to get the necessary experience in the required time. Firm instruction, but with infinite patience, and very quick reactions during some of my poorer decisions! Didn't feel hurried, or panicky at any point. Thanks a Million! read more

Due to getting a job in September, which required me to drive, in April, when I had my first lesson, I knew I needed to learn how to drive quite quickly! Due to placement, I started having lessons in May, 2-3 times a week depending on how busy I was. I passed my test on the 23rd of July, passing first time. A friend of mine recommended Paul to me, he is very supportive, and makes you feel very comfortable when driving. He is also very encouraging and dealt very well with me being a perfectionist AND panicking! Thanks again Paul :) read more

I had been putting off learning to drive for 15 years and had built up a lot of fear about getting behind the wheel. My first lesson with Doug really put me at ease. I really struggled getting my head round going backwards so Doug thought of many different ways to help me understand. I live in a very small street so good parking skills are essential and Doug's patience and instruction has really given me confidence in getting into tight spots! With Doug's friendly and professional instruction I passed my test first time! read more
