Dominie’s Driving School

Dominie is a very relaxed and patient instructor who helped me learn to drive in just 8 months, which is very quick considering the fact I didn’t have a car to drive myself and only used hers. I managed to pass first try with only 2 minors which goes to show how good of an instructor she is!

I could not recommend learning with Dominie enough! I began as an extremely unconfident learner after having a really discouraging instructor a few years ago. I had lost a lot of belief that I could ever pass my test, but learning with her was a completely different experience!  Despite being extremely nervous, she was always so supportive, patient and encouraging, which allowed me to feel comfortable behind the wheel. Whenever I made mistakes, she gave really helpful feedback that was easy to understand and implement. Everything felt so much easier when learning with her, and anything I struggled with was never skipped over, which led me to become a much more confident and safe driver. I not only felt really prepared for my test, but also for driving independently afterwards, and being able to handle different situations on the road. She really helped me to build the confidence and belief in myself that I could pass the test, which I am not sure would have been possible if Dominie wasn’t my instructor.  If you’re feeling nervous about learning to drive, she is a great choice and overall, just such a lovely person to learn with!Moreexpand_more

Dominie is a very patient and professional instructor. I was quite anxious about driving and not at all confident in my ability, but she put me at ease and worked with me to build my confidence and prepare me for the test. She never lost patience and was always easy to have an honest conversation with about which aspects of driving needed more practice. She was flexible with arranging lessons around existing commitments and ever helpful when answering any questions I had about driving, the rules of the road, and what to expect on the test, which, thanks to her, I passed with only three minors. I thoroughly recommend her!

I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Dominie! From the very first lesson, they were calm, patient, and incredibly supportive. They explained everything clearly and always made me feel at ease behind the wheel, even when I was nervous. What I appreciated most was their ability to stay positive and encouraging, while still being honest and helping me improve each lesson. They gave me the confidence I needed to pass my test and become a safe, independent driver. If you're looking for a friendly, professional, and knowledgeable instructor who genuinely cares about your progress, I can't recommend Dominie enough. Thank you so much for everything! .

Great instructor. She is really calm, patient and helpful. Id highly recommend, she helped me pass first time with only 1 minor. Thank you.

Really amazing instructor. The lessons were flexible, she is very patient and helped me pass first try.

Genuinely amazing, it's been the best learning from Dominie as she is very informative, calm and helpful. I recommend her to everyone as she managed to help me get 0 minors and 0 serious on my driving exam, none of my friends who have used other instructors have been able to do that. Sweet, efficient and definitely an amazing teacher.

Great instructor, down to earth and made me feel very comfortable learning with her. I highly recommend. I passed first time in under 9 months thanks to her help and encouragement!

We are not from the local area and found Dominie’s Driving School through an online search to prepare our daughter for a test in Ipswich. During the two lessons we booked, Dominie introduced her to anything she might experience in the test that required local knowledge, such as unusual junctions, double roundabouts, spiral roundabouts and changing speed limits, along with providing useful videos to look at together at home. Dominie was flexible with timings, punctual, but most importantly to us, incredibly kind, funny and patient. She really helped our daughter overcome her nerves enabling her to pass first time. Thank you.

Nice, patient driving instructor.

I passed first time and couldn't have done it with Dominie. She worked with me and helped calm my nerves. I was very scared to start driving in the first place and she eased my worries quickly. She was the perfect inductor for me. Thanks so much!

I recently passed my driving test first time and I couldn't have done it without Dominie. She is a fantastic instructor who made me feel confident and at ease throughout my lessons.

Helped me pass first time with no minors. Dominie is a great instructor and I would highly recommend.

Dominie made me feel comfortable and calm. She is great at explaining exactly what you need to do, whilst being patient and flexible. Dominie helped clear a lot of my confusion by showing me multiple ways of doing things and learning what is best for me. I wouldn't have passed first time and without minors without her.

I passed first time with no minors thanks to the help from Dominie. She was extremely patient and thorough in her explanations, which made driving and carrying out manoeuvres feel much easier. I would highly recommend her and can’t thank her enough!

I’m extremely grateful to both Dominie and Sandy for their consistent support, patience and guidance whilst learning to drive. I was really nervous to begin with and would often make silly mistakes however they were both so encouraging and talked me through each process. I have passed my driving test first time and it is thanks to both of them that I was able to do that!
