I started with Simon last month after deciding that signing up for another gym membership (that I…read moreonly use for a couple of weeks the. stop going- I've done this 4 times!! ) was not a cost effective or time efficient way of improving my health, and loosing weight as per my goal. This time I really wanted to get it right and stick to it. A friend recommended PT, at first I didn't really consider it for myself, thinking it would be expensive and something only celebrity's do. However the more I though about it the more I felt that investing in my health was something I felt was important. I did some investigation into local trainers in my area, I messaged some and asked about rates, availability and training however to be honest I was completely new to exercise and was pretty unsure what I was looking for. I had had responses from lots of PTs I reached out to however I felt a little overwhelmed on who to go with- some were asking for money before I had met them; which I didn't feel comfortable with. What if their training style wasn't for me? What if I felt uncomfortable and didn't want to go back, yet had paid up front for sessions? With Simon there was none of this, in the first instance he invited me to meet him for a no obligation chat about what I was looking to achieve, and to discuss how he could help. Long story short after meeting Simon I was happy that he could help me reach my fitness goals, and I found that he makes you feel relaxed and comfortable very quickly even if you are a total novice to gym equipment ;-) I have been training for 6 weeks now, I have lost weight, have much more energy and feel great! I can't recommend Simon enough, and for anyone still sitting on the fence I urge you to take the plunge and arrange to go and see him for a chat- it could change your life! #TrainWithSimon

This review is my personal, fact based review of 123 Driving School. It is substantiated with…read moreevidence. 123 Driving School appear to be deleting negative reviews wherever possible regardless of whether the content is truthful or not. To anyone thinking of becoming a driving instructor with this company be VERY aware. You will get broken promises, a complete lack of support and be left hanging with your career and livelihood in the balance. The marketing blurb might all sound good but is a complete contradiction to reality where the "trainer" will suggest you will receive 44 hours of 1:1 tuition for your Part 3 qualification (two hours weekly for 22 weeks). My personal experience was being observed twice in over six months. The feedback you received will not be correct, nor appropriate - even if the "trainer" does turn up and you may well find yourself having to find someone else to make sure you qualify. I know I had to, and I am not the only one. Fortunately, I was saved from the abyss before it was too late and improvements to my instructional techniques were necessary having been left to my own devices for long periods of time. 123 Driving School then refused to comply with my request for personal data to be removed from their website and social media channels, and only did so when instructed to do so by the Information Commissioners Office. Please. Think very carefully before committing to this company. Personally, I would say avoid like the plague, however only you can make that choice, and I would strongly suggest you think very carefully before making any decisions.

Absolutely fantastic, my instructor Roberto was very understanding, completely professional and…read moresupportive of getting me on the road again.
