Happy drivers

Earl Drive has been the best choice I could have made when choosing a driving instructor.

Obinna was very thorough in all areas of my learning and his guidance throughout my time learning from him was invaluable.

​He was always happy to go the extra mile and made sure that I was ready to take (and pass) my test. I would highly recommend Earl Drive to any new learner drivers.
Catherine Paul
I started driving lessons with Obinna after reading all the positive reviews, and they were all correct.

​Obinna made me feel confident with my driving and always provided feedback and tips on how to improve. He was very patient and accommodating to my varying schedule.

On my first lesson with Obinna, he advised that I should book my test which was shocking to me as I was previously told after 50+ hours with another instructor that I was not test ready.

We worked on any concerns I had and structured the lessons on areas I wanted to improve, with frequent end of lesson evaluations and was made to feel as though no question was a silly question.

I passed my test with 0 minors today which was only possible with Obinna's help and support!

I would highly recommend Obinna to anyone who is thinking about taking driving lessons and want to pass!
Olivia Smith
Great driving instructor, definitely would recommend!
Sveta Lazarenco
Obinna is the best tutor I've ever had.

He will never yell at you. Instead, he will explain how to avoid mistakes in the future.

​He is very personable, upbeat, and concerned about his students' success.

Totally loved my experience with Mr Obinna!

He is by far the best instructor anyone could ask for. He was very patient and reassured me that it would all be alright.

Would greatly recommend. He worked incredibly well to melt away all my fears about driving, increasing confidence in myself and I cannot thank him enough.

Obinna is the best instructor you can encounter. He is very patient and at the same time gives the lesson to the last detail.

He teaches you, gives you the chance to make all your mistakes and corrects every bit of it.

I have passed my test and I suggest you register and pass, as well. Thanks to Obinna.

Mr Obinna is an excellent driving instructor who is capable of teaching A to Z of driving.

​He is so humble and professional. I would highly recommend him for anybody who wants to learn driving. 
Melanie South
After having many lessons with another driving instructor I was pushed to change due to the fact he only wanted to offer me a 2hr lesson every 2 weeks.

I bit the bullet and did some digging and found Earl Drive!  Wow what a difference!

I was always very nervous Driving, with Obinna I feel much more relaxed and confident!  The only regret I have is that I didn't do it sooner.  I am now on the road to becoming test ready.

​I would highly recommend Earl Drive!

UPDATE:
Today I passed my driving test with 2 minor faults! I can't thank Obinna enough! He is so patient and professional with lots of laughs too. I am absolutely over the moon and I have this man to thank!

Obinna is the best instructor ever, I felt very comfortable from the first lesson with him.

​He's very friendly and positive and cares about his students doing well.

If you make a mistake he would never yell at you but instead explain how to correct that for next time. Overall he is the best.

I recommend him with all my heart.
