Allan is a brilliant, calm and very patient driving instructor. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I had no experience other than my lessons with Allan, which were always tailored to insure my improvement. Allan made sure I was ready for my test with a mock test and helping me improve minor mistakes throughout my lessons. I passed first time receiving only 4 minors! Thank you Allan!

Brilliant Driving instructor. Allan was very patient, persistent and helped with my anxiety that would vary week to week. He was consistent with his way of teaching and very quickly found the best method that would benefit me. He was also very easy to get on with, unlike a previous instructor. Thanks Allan.

Allan has taught both my children to drive during the past 18 months. My son passed his first driving test yesterday just 33 days after turning 17, he received no minors and his examiner even asked him who his driving instructor was. Allan's very calm and patient manner has definitely worked for both of them. I would not hesitate in recommending him.

Allan Banks is an outstanding driving instructor. If you want to pass your test first time round Allan is your man. I was very grateful for his patience as it took me quite a while to get to grips with the clutch and those gears. Allan's mantra "Hand before clutch" still comes back to me every time I change gear. Top man and I really can only highly recommend him and I wish him all the best. And to finish it off another of Allan's mantra "Brake before clutch! "Uwe Kohl.

If you want to learn to drive, choose Allan! He's a very efficient teacher and ensures you know and understand everything! He's very thorough with his teaching and methods. He does not rush you into anything and he's always willing to go over things with you. His has the greatest sense of humour in the world! Countless times he had me in fits of laughter! I would definitely recommend Allan as I only have positive remarks about him. Good value and always had a good time. :).

Allan was an amazing instructor! I passed my theory first time and my practical first time with only three minors due to his guideance and teaching! I knew nothing about driving but even on my first lesson I felt at ease with Allan. He explained everything clearly and demonstrated as much as needed. I always felt safe with Allan and would highly reccomend him to anyone looking for a driving instructor.

I passed my driving test on the 7th August 2012 (first time) with only 2 minors, and I have to say it was all due to the tuition I received from Allan Banks! He is an excellent teacher, in fact as my lessons progressed, I came to think more of him as a friend than my instructor! I always felt at ease from the first time I got behind the wheel and he was always on my wavelength! His directions and instructions were very clear, and if I did make an mistake I could always be sure that Allan was 150% on the ball and never allowed me to feel out of control. When I went for my driving test, he was very understanding, knowing I was a bundle of nerves and walked me through our final preparations! He was always prompt and arrived for my lessons on time and to suit me! I wouldn't have considered Pass Plus before but you can be sure that is definitely what I am proceeding to do! A massive credit to Allan for not only his knowledge and experience but also to his infinite patience he held for the 6 months we spent together.

Yesterday afternoon I took my first driving test after learning every week for 6 months and I passed with flying colours all thanks to Allan. From the start Allan took me through my paces, adapting his teaching methods to my needs and his infinite patience throughout our time together was incredible! I always felt very comfortable when learning to drive as Allan was always on my wavelength even when occasionally putting his car through it's limits too - if I had missed something I could always be sure Allan was 150% on the ball! Prior to my experience I wouldn't have considered continuing on to do Pass Plus but you can be sure thats definitely what I am proceeding to do! Massive thank you for everything Allan, you patience, knowledge and reassurance!

Being of a rather nervous character when driving, a calm natured, patient instructor was key for me. And Allan hits the nail on the head! He guides you through the process, giving very structured lessons and goals, tailored individually to each student, so you are constantly spurred on by achievement! Not only a knowledgable, experienced instructor but one who is friendly and talkative. Lessons were a highlight of my week!

Passed. Passed. Passed. In first attempt. I would highly recommend Allan as a driving instructor. He is very methodical and has got huge number of tips which helps you to crack difficult aspects of driving such as manoeuvres etc. You need to be honest of yourself in telling your problems beforehand and Allan has easy remedies to fix them. Besides his easy tips, he is a very reliable, patient and a good person. Allan thanks for everything.

Worthing
My experience with Allan Banks was an absolute pleasure. He teaches you how to read the road and become a confident driver, not just to pass your test. Not only a fountain of knowledge, but a very witty and companionable character! His prices reflect the quality of his professional teaching, and he's worth every penny. So, thank you Allan for being a fantastic friend and guiding me through my driving experience.

I feel that Allan clearly showed and explained all aspects of driving. He suited his teaching methods to my needs well, and I felt very comfortable being taught by such a calm character. Allan has taught me precision and safe, clean, independent driving. With his teaching, I passed both my theory and practical tests first time. A very good instructor to recommend.

I feel very lucky to have been taught by such a friendly, enthusiastic expert, with a genuine interest in his students. Allan uses a number of unique techniques, which help you with the weaker aspects of your driving (Roundabouts and manoeuvres in my case) Allan always teaches you by looking at the bigger picture. He genuinely teaches you skills for driving to take with you for life, he does not just teach how to pass the test. I passed my test in the very first time will miss our lessons, thank you so much!
Catherine Lawson
Worthing
I would highly recommend Allan to anyone looking for a driving instructor. He is a very friendly, reliable and patient person and makes every lesson something to look forward to. I found the theory aspects easy to learn and understand as each lesson was aimed at achieving a certain goal. He prepares you extremely well for your driving test and thanks to him I, and many others, passed first time :)I found learning to drive a very enjoyable, positive experience and everyone I know who has learnt with Allan has said exactly the same. Highly recommended!

Allan carefully matched theory with practical driving in a well structured sequence that suits me covering DSA driving test requirements. Teaching independent, safe, smooth, precise and economic driving without delays. My practical driving test passed at the very first shot.
