Chilled Driving Tuition

I had Danny Meier for my driving instructor and he was brilliant. I passed first time because of how professional and a great teacher he was! I couldn’t recommend him and chilled enough. I felt comfortable the whole time and was great to have good conversations every lesson! 100% book Danny Meier and chilled. Thank you.

Can't recommend Chilled enough. From the first phone call to passing my test just 20 hours of tuition later, the whole experience was spot on. I'd already been on the road for years riding motorbikes, but I'd never driven a car before booking with Chilled. With that in mind, the lady on the phone was a huge help patiently discussing what the right option could be for me, and we went ahead and booked my first 10 hours of weekly lessons. I turned up to my first lesson not knowing what to expect, and it was a positive surprise when I met my instructor. Dan was always patient, easy to get on with, and knew exactly when to have a laugh and when to stop me from doing something stupid. The best part of his teaching was that he wasn't just following a plan, each lesson was tailored to what I personally needed to work on next. I loved how often he would throw me into something new, so long as I was comfortable, helping me make quicker and better progress by not wasting time on practicing things I didn't need to. Dan always gave me good insight about my progress, and soon into our second set of 10 hours he dropped a massive bombshell on me. He gave me an opportunity to move my test date from over 3 months away to just 3 weeks away. Insisting it was my call to make, but letting me know he thought I was capable, we talked about it and I decided to go for it. Suddenly, I was being put into my mock test with Chilled after only 14 hours of tuition. I took my mock with Shaun C, who explained what to expect and gave me a moment to get myself ready before we set off. Unforunately, I failed the mock in the last minute because I cocked up my parking manoeuvre. I knew exactly what I'd done wrong the moment I did it, but Shaun clearly and constructively explained how I messed up and gave me a few other pointers. In spite of that, he insisted there was no reason I should wait any longer for my test, and said if I was still happy to bring my date forward that I should. After practicing lots of parking with Dan in the remaining hours I had with him, we both felt confident that I was ready. Flash forward to test day, I pulled off a flawless test. I said Dan could sit in the back seat, and after the test both of us agreed that it never looked in doubt!The thing I liked most about Chilled was that it never felt like they were dragging the process out for the sake of it. Once Dan knew I was ready, he wanted me to get my licence as soon as possible. He told me it was a big credit to me that I learned as quickly as I did, but it was an even bigger credit to him that his teaching was effective and flexible enough to help me pull it off. If you're looking for instructors who know their stuff, have a good laugh with you, and genuinely want you to pass rather than rinse you, I'd 100% recommend Chilled. Cheers again to Dan and Shaun C for believing in me!Moreexpand_more

Thank you so much james.

Jack was great, helped me build my confidence, got my skills up and helped me pass first time!

Manual Intensively Chilled, ~69 Hours Tutored, 0 Private Driving. Lesson durations: 5 hours, (2. 5-4. 5, instructors can be flexible). Vehicle: 2026 Audi A1 (Manual). Instructors: Simon, Will, Martyn. Passed First Time: 4 Minors. Insightful, Practical and Theoretical Learning in a relaxed learning environment with Air conditioning! As soon as you make a call, or send them an email to get yourself signed up, the Chilled Team are tailoring a course to suit your driving experience. When you've booked your hours and meet your instructor you get to sit behind the steering wheel of an Audi or Ford (Depending on your booking).Though I had prior driving experience with Chilled a few years back, I needed to relearn the basics with Simon as it had been some time since I drove. You'll be assessed usually for your first hour of driving and are constantly assessed and taught as you go. Bookings for 2026 can be quite rough as Chilled is incredibly popular to learn with, so instructors can change. For the rest and majority of my hours I was taught by Will and Martin, who both have many years of driving pretty much anything that has two or more wheels. Will and Martyn are incredible tutors who will get you in the right mindset for learner driving with their humour, patience and knowledge. The Mock Test by one of the senior instructors can seem quite harsh, but it is there to see if you can drive to the standard they are teaching you. It was incredibly insightful. You may get more hours suggested, take them! Iron out those habits!Try and get yourself a lesson in before the day of your test to just get the last bits of preparation in!If you book the use of the instructor's car on the day of the test, you get roughly 40 minutes as a warm up as you drive to the test centre, depending on road conditions. Big thanks to the Chilled Team in the office and my instructors Simon, Will and Martyn!Moreexpand_more
