About Go with Ger Driving School

Key Products :


I am a Driving Standards Agency ADI (Approved Driving Instructor) with over 20 years of training and professional driving experience. I teach in Port Talbot.

I offer a professional and friendly service to ensure that each pupil is instructed at a pace to suit them and maximising the results from each lesson to help the pupil get test ready within the shortest number of lessons. I do this by using a variety of coaching techniques and identifying each pupil's motivational needs, then relating to them during the lesson.

Even self professed nervous learners enjoy my lessons, many of whom have been given a less than satisfactory service from other driving instructors in the past and can't believe the difference that my supportive approach can make to their self belief and ability.

Learning to drive? Don't just think about it, GowithGer!

Driving Standards Agency Approved Driving Instructor. 8/10 of my pupils passed their Theory Test first time and 7/10 pupils in 2018 passed their practical test first time in 2015.

I aim to provide an enjoyable experience whilst also ensuring that pupils maintain attention to maximise the learning from each lesson.

I am a member of the Driving Instructors Association (DIA). This ensures I am kept up to date with all changes that affect the industry and also gives my pupils the peace of mind that I have adequate Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance.

I am regularly kept up to date with local issues relating to the industry and also working closely with the Local Authorities Road Safety Teams.

Katie Peacock
Port Talbot
Passed my driving test third time and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. He was patient, encouraging and always took the time to explain things clearly, especially when I was struggling with certain manoeuvres or feeling nervous before my tests. Even after a couple of unsuccessful attempts, he kept me motivated and helped me build my confidence instead of letting me get discouraged. Every lesson felt worthwhile and I always felt comfortable asking questions. Thank you for all your support and patience throughout the whole process. I’m really grateful for everything you taught me and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a driving instructor.
Response : Thanks Katie, honestly you’ve been such great company I’ll sincerely miss you loads. Well done on a fantastic pass and even more so becoming such a great and thoughtful driver. It’s been a blast. Thanks Ger.
Angelino Alva
Port Talbot
Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! Began driving pretty excited but also with a nervousness that was pretty difficult to wrangle with. Having Geraint as my instructor though, he helped me overcome my fears and faults. We can name so many things, approach speed, lane keep, parking etc. But what I feel is equally just as helpful is just how much you gain mentally as well! - He'd be forgiving and supportive when need be, but would also be stern enough when I needed the extra push where I wasn't picking up the slack, like hammering in the mentality of not rushing while driving and even pushing me to finally book my theory when I was, admittedly, stalling :,) . Please, take this, and the hundreds of others reviews, as evidence that you're getting absolute QUALITY with GoWithGer. From all the services they provide; like the theory app and progress tracking, to the STELLAR learning environment, I wouldn't trade my time with anyone else and 100% recommend! W Ger :).
Response : Thank you Angelino, you’ve been great company in the car and I’m really pleased you’ve done so well. We really did make a great team. Stay safe and good luck with your exams. Thanks Ger.

What can I say, from the get go, learning with Geraint was nothing short of an eye opening experience. Not only was Geraint gentle, patient and understanding, but he was equally as thorough not only when it comes to driving and safely on the road but also when considering broader aspects too. I feel like I really started to reflect on scenarios and other factors in conjunction with just the driving itself, opening up great dialogue and necessary conversation about a multitude of things including mindset and attitude towards driving. Showing me that theres a lot more to driving than just gears and a pedals. I would recommend Geraint to anyone learning; not only to drive, but to help with their confidence and self belief too. Go with Ger. The name says it all.
Response : Thanks Mason for such a comprehensive review. You’ve been great company and I’ve really enjoyed helping you grow. What a great result to pass First Time with just 2 minor faults. Thanks Ger.

Response : Thanks Logan, you’ve been great company in that car and I’ve really enjoyed helping you discover yourself and overcome your fears. You’ve done brilliantly and I’m really proud of you. Well done again. Thanks Ger.

Geraint was a great driving instructor I got along with him very well, got me passed in 7 weeks even though I’m landed I past so quickly, wish I had more time with the great man.
Response : Thanks Ben, you’ve been a complete natural and such a pleasure to have as company in the car. PS Darwin Road is a much nicer drive than Thorney Road (just saying). Well done and thanks to Mam for all the private practice.

Ger has been a great driving instructor. He was always patient and explained everything clearly. The app he uses is great to always know when your next lesson is and see the progress you have made. He is very organised and is always on time. You also get free access to theory training. .

Daniel Lloyd
Port Talbot
? . The best driving instructor anyone could ever ask for. I honestly cannot recommend my driving instructor highly enough. From the very first lesson right through to test day, the level of patience, professionalism, encouragement, and genuine care has been nothing short of exceptional. Every lesson was structured, calm, and confidence-building, with explanations that were always clear, thorough, and tailored exactly to what I needed. What truly sets them apart is their ability to make you feel completely at ease behind the wheel. No matter how many mistakes I made, I was always met with reassurance, constructive feedback, and a belief in me even on days when I doubted myself. They didn’t just teach me how to pass a test - they taught me how to be a safe, confident, and competent driver for life. Thanks to their incredible teaching style, attention to detail, and unwavering support, I passed my driving test today feeling prepared, confident, and proud. This achievement is 100% down to their dedication and expertise. If you’re looking for a driving instructor who genuinely cares about your success, pushes you to be your best, and makes the entire learning experience enjoyable and rewarding - look no further. I will be forever grateful and would recommend them without hesitation to absolutely anyone. .Moreexpand_more

Cameron Gillam
Port Talbot
What an amazing instructor, he had me past in just over 2 months, could have never done it without him.
Response : Cam, that’s really kind of you but you could have probably done it without an instructor altogether if I’m honest. You’ve been a great learner and thanks to Dad for all the insight and practice in between lessons. Well done and good luck with everything. Thanks Ger.
Louis O’brien

Passed on my first attempt which only took about 8 weeks. Really calm and patient instructor who explained things clearly and made lessons easy to understand. He really helped build my confidence quickly and would definitely recommend.
Response : Thanks Louis, you’ve been an absolute superstar and made my job super easy from passing theory within a few days of your 17th birthday to getting lots of practice in with your dad. To pass first time within 8 weeks of your 17th birthday is really some achievement. Thanks again Ger.

Vincent John O’bri...

Ger has been absolutely amazing with teaching me to drive, his patience and advice has played a massive part in me being as good a driver as I am, if it wasn’t for his support I doubt I would’ve passed this soon, I would recommend him to everyone who wants to learn to drive.
Response : I’ve really enjoyed getting to know you and helping you develop into a thoughtful and conscientious driver over the last few months. Great result today to pass with just 2 minor faults. Thanks again Ger.
