What a fantastic instructor Trevor is. I was guided by the reviews when looking for an instructor and after passing the test in the first attempt I confirmed myself all the kind words people give to him. He is got many good qualities as an instructor, and what I appreciated the most as a student is that he taught me to drive always safely. With safety in mind, you build on confidence knowing that you are learning not only to keep you safe but others on the road. Many thanks Trevor for accompanying me in my journey and all the best!

Trevor is a very reassuring and experienced driving instructor who has taught both my sister and me how to drive, with both of us passing our P's test on our first try. He is excellent at explaining concepts and his methodical approach to instruction has been a huge help. I couldn't recommend him more highly!

Trevor is a knowledgeable and reliable driving instructor, and is someone I would highly recommend to anyone who has little to no driving experience. He is very encouraging and enjoyable to be with. Throughout my driving experience, he has taught me all of the necessary skills needed in order to safely drive on the road. His guides are extremely helpful and easy-to-follow, and he goes through them thoroughly when learning new manoeuvres. Whenever mistakes were made, he would notify and correct my mistakes immediately and calmly. At times, it may get frustrating, but that is because he genuinely wants his students to be confident, well-prepared and most importantly, safe drivers.

Due to medical problems I could not drive for about six years but then I became a widow and it was imperative that I drive as I lived a long way from public transport and my one daughter worked so was unable to drive me. Moreover I had my husbands new model luxury sports car which was completely foreign to me. Feeling desperate and incapable, I contacted ACE Driver Training. It was magic to my confidence. The tuition is brilliant and gentle. Every step is carefully monitored. Warm guidance develops your confidence and skills. The instructor gives logical explanations, so you remember why you make certain moves. My lessons became anticipated pleasure. I now drive with absolute confidence and great joy. Thank you Trevor, my friend forever.

Trevor has been an excellent instructor. He has focused on teaching me many aspects of driving, whether it be how to approach hazardous situations or even simple techniques such as eye movement on the road. I would recommend Trevor to any learner driver feeling nervous as his friendly nature and motivating attitude encourage you to perfect your driving skills :)

Trevor is a fantastic instructor. I've learnt a lot from him. Trevor is a real down to earth, friendly guy who also has extremely clear, well-developed instructions for teaching anyone to drive. I really highly recommend Trevor to any person or parent looking for an instructor to teach them (or their child) to drive.

Aside from passing my driving test first go, Trevor instils safe habits in new drivers from day 1, and consolidates them every lesson. His teaching style is clear, well paced and extremely accommodating to individual needs. He is also very accommodating with lesson times, willing to work around you if you have other commitments or face sudden schedule changes. His course is comprehensive and covers all aspects of the driving experience. Most importantly, he is an extremely good man, and each lesson is a unique experience with a new story and a good conversation.

I have no hesitation in recommending ACE Driver Training to anyone who wants to be well equipped to handle both the driving test, and being a safe and skilled driver.

I studied under other driving instructors with different teaching styles prior, but I preferred Trevor's the most. The overall curriculum is well thought out with every lesson building on what was learned previously. The handbook and illustrations that you need to read before every lesson helped me to make the most out of every lesson. What I liked the most was the step-by-step approach to every skill: Trevor had everything stripped down to as simple and efficient as can be. I passed my P test on the first attempt.

ACE Driving Training really helped me to increase my confidence on the road when I was a new driver and emphasised essential skills that many drivers on the road lack. It has been two years since my lessons with Trevor, and I am still using those defensive driving skills, and am a much safer driver for it.

ACE driver training provided an excellent experience when in the learning/ early stages of the Learner Driver Experience. The lesson times were flexible as were the pick/up and drop off locations which was very practical. The driving instructor (Trevor) was always friendly and provided a great learning environment. All in all, a great value service and I would highly recommend to new any Learner Driver.

Trevor has perfected the method of teaching people to drive - he's even written a manual on it - my daughter had already had 15 hours with another instructor but we weren't entirely happy so we asked for some hours with ACE driving and immediately she was able to understand how to use her vision correctly and turn corners without hitting them! She went on to pass first time and we recommend him to anyone who wants their son or daughter to learn PROPERLY!
