It had a nice atmosphere, especially during coffee time when the students and teachers mix together informally. Of course, I can't say as a student, but as a teacher, I thought the classes I covered seemed well organised and fun, and the students were friendly and enthusiastic.

It's in a nice and accessible part of Edinburgh, in a beautiful old building. The course instructors were good at motivating the class, and instilling us with confidence to teach. The group I was in bonded together nicely which made the whole experience very pleasant. The school also has its own cafe where students can relax together.

Last year I did a German evening class which was about £15 a week. The classes were small and…read moreeveryone got a chance to practice speech. Even though I did German at school, I never really picked it up and I now understand why the government are always going on about smaller class sizes, it make a huge difference to me (probably also because I'm a bit more mature now). The teacher was patient and encouraging and the rooms were set in a great building. Adult education ist sehr gut, ja?

It is a very well kept and run language centre, part of the University of Edinburgh. You can choose…read morefrom a good variety of language courses with the most suitable times of classes. The classes are not very big, the tutors are native speakers with good teaching experience. I took two levels of French for beginners there last year and was very pleased with the tutor, the course organization and the general interior. I would have expected to have a small library though with let's say the latest/current newspapers and magazines and a number of dictionaries. That is not why I have taken one of the stars but due to the fact that the administration is a bit negligent. They had sent my first level certificate to my old address without checking if it is still the current address. When I complained they promised to resend me a copy. I am still waiting for it.

Excellent driving school and instructor Pat. Very organised, friendly, value for money and great…read morequality. Pat was fantastic as an instructor. I've had three previous instructors.....two of which were awful....unfriendly, overly critical and poor standard lessons. Pat was just the opposite. Friendly and put me at my ease straight away as at 28 and putting off lessons after previous bad experiences it was difficult getting behind the wheel again. He was always super organised and prepared and even took notes on our lessons. He was very flexible and reliable. I passed first time too. Highly recommended.

Hi, not sure if anyone ever reads these reviews, I did and am glad I did. I came from up north and…read morehad just settled in to Edinburgh. I had been learning to drive before I moved and wanted a school to get me to test. After looking around I came to The Driving Training Centre based on the reviews I had read. Must say, am glad I did. Unlike my last driving school, these guys are professional, reliable and patient. My instructor helped me focus and I found his explanation easy to understand. My advice, learning to drive, use these guys they are years ahead of the competition. Thanks DTC for all your help.
