EXTRA INFORMATION As a fully qualified instructor, I can provide a high quality of instruction with lessons tailored to suit your pace of learning and are conducted on a 1:1 basis.

Lessons are available week-ends and evenings, with a free local collection service from home, work, college, school or station, by prior arrangement.

My aim is for my pupils to pass their test on the first attempt within the shortest timeframe.
I teach pupils of all ages and abilities. Nervous pupils are also very welcome. Learning to drive is a life skill and should be a rewarding and enjoyable experience. As a calm and patient instructor, I will help you relax and enjoy your lessons from the start.

If you have passed your theory test and want to gain your independence as quickly as possible, I offer a range of intensive and semi-intensive courses. In addition to the standard lessons, I also offer hazard perception and theory test help and advice, Pass Plus, Refresher and Motorway lessons.

Costa has been an instructor for over 15 years and started Costa Driving School in 2011.
Gina recently joined the business when our children started school.
Between us we have a vast knowledge of teaching driving to all levels of student. All ages and experience.

I have just passed my driving test first time thanks to the amazing tuition from Gina. I started my lessons as a very nervous driver thinking I’d never pass my test. I would not change anything about my experience with Gina. Highly recommend and will be back for PassPlus.

Passed today with only 3 minor driving faults. I had lessons many years ago and had a bad experience with the instructor I was very anxious to start driving lessons again but thought I'd give it one last try and that's when I found Costa on Facebook from my first lesson he put me at ease made me feel comfortable and took the learning at my pace. Although I'm over the moon to of passed my test I will miss my weekly lessons with Costa and the chats and laughs we had. I highly recommend Costa Driving school the best instructors around.

Passed first time! I had an great experience with my driving instructor! As a beginner, I was quite anxious about learning to drive, but their calm and encouraging approach really helped me. Each lesson was tailored to my needs, making me feel more confident behind the wheel. I'm thrilled to say that I passed my driving test on my first try!

I passed FIRST TIME with only 2 minors, Costa is amazing! After a bad experience with a previous instructor, I was quite anxious to start lessons again. But from the first lesson Costa created a friendly, chatty atmosphere and taught in a way that kept me calm and focused. I will always recommend Costa to new drivers in the future!

THANKS TO COSTA I PASSED MY TEST FIRST TIME! I am so lucky to have found Costa. For anyone who wants to pass first time - contact Costa Driving School! His skills and expertise as well as reassurance and patience are incredible. I am such an over thinker and I loved that we could also have a laugh whilst you helped me learn from every mistake to become a better driver. I will forever be grateful for choosing Costa!

I took my lessons with Gina, honestly what an absolute dream of a woman! She put me at ease and never doubted me even when I doubted myself! I can not thank this woman enough for everything she has done to build my confidence, the laughs the questions were never to much for her (and boy did I have them! ). I will be forever grateful for the friend I made in her and the level of care and attention she gives to your strengths and weaknesses. I passed first time with 3 minors. Will 100% be reccomending costa driving to everyone.

If you are looking for someone who is a brilliant teacher - GINA is your woman. Obviously when you’re a learner you make mistakes as expected, but Gina takes it all in her stride, she doesn’t get annoyed, shout, or make you feel stupid, she instead helps you to learn from the mistake and correct it for future reference. Gina has been nothing short of AMAZING, literally anything she’s been able to do to help me, or make things easier she has done without question. Honestly, this wonderful woman has just been amazing. She has helped me build so much confidence that I’ve managed to pass my test FIRST time. Admittedly, there were times that I was struggling and I thought will I ever do this, but Gina has been there supporting and encouraging me the whole way. NONE of my lessons have ever felt like a chore, and I’ve always looked forward to having them because you really do learn, enjoy, and improve with Gina. I cannot recommend or THANK her enough. I am really going to miss my fun lessons, and your company Gina, but I am also SO excited to begin my own independent journey of driving !Thank you SO SO much, it’s been nothing short of a pleasure getting to know you and learn from you. THANK YOU so much for helping me to PASS FIRST TIME !You really are the best THANK YOU ! ? BEEP BEEP!Moreexpand_more
