After buying the 5 hour package for £75 I had Gerry as an instructor, and during the first 3 hours I did about an hours worth of actual independent driving. He was very slow to progress onto the next stage and often times was more concerned about fuel and not wearing out his cars clutch than actually letting you learn. Not only this but neither he nor Smart Learner mentioned that 2 hours of this 5 hour package are reserved for the Test and cannot be used as driving lessons (or if this was mentioned it was definitely not made clear enough, in person and on the website). Furthermore he made arrangements for another lesson after those 3 hours were up, not mentioning the fact that I will have to pay for the next appointment until I got into the car on the day, only to be left disappointed and told that I CANNOT get a refund due to the appointment already having been made. read more
