I have been having lessons with Lisa since late October, and look forward to them each week, Lisa is very thorough in her teaching, This week I passed first time with 3 minors, I will definitely be recommending Lisa to my friends in the future Thank you Lisa.
Wow! What a journey! My desire to start learning to drive came later in life to most. By the time it did come around I was met with silence in terms of unreturned phone calls and emails from every driving school imaginable. Insight2Drive to this day was the only reply I have ever received from all of those contacts and it was at this point Karen got in touch and asked if I was still interested in learning to drive. The dread, fear and anxiety I had about learning to drive almost immediately turned into excitement and a will to want to become a good driver with how infectious I found Karen. If you are lucky to have Karen as your instructor, she will almost certainly tell you on your first lesson she loves a cruise and it is highly likely on your second lesson she'll tell you she's just booked another one! She's so easy going, great to talk to and she'll never let you down. Karen was everything I could've asked for in a driving instructor. She is naturally a great teacher. She'll give you all the time in the world if you feel you need it and she'll challenge you for more if she thinks you're capable. If Karen can teach me to drive, she can definitely teach anyone! Thanks for everything, you've changed my life!Moreexpand_more
I had John barrow for a year and started without knowing anything about how to use a car. Throughout the past year he’s worked me hard and helped me a lot. Whenever I had a problem or made a mistake in my driving, we would go back to the problem, correct the mistakes and talk about it. These small things overall made me a better driver and made me more confident in my abilities. John told me when we started last year that we would build our foundation through doing the basics and getting them perfect, before we start on the more difficult things and I believe that’s the best way to learn how to drive. Many thanks to John it’s been a pleasure.
Passed my driving test 27/4/26 after on my third attempt, I was very nervous and had a lot of anxiety but John helped me through it. He reassured me with such confidence and told me I can do it so thank you. I will be a great driver now :).
Recently passed my driving test with Insight2Drive, and I couldn’t have done it without Robert Martin. He was an amazing instructor - patient, encouraging, and always clear in his guidance. He really helped build my confidence behind the wheel and made every lesson feel productive. Highly recommend both Insight2Drive and Robert to anyone learning to drive!
I couldn’t recommend John Tipton as a driving instructor. From the very beginning, he was really easy to get on with, which made a huge difference for me. I struggle with ADHD and can find it difficult to connect and communicate with people, but John was patient, understanding, and made me feel completely comfortable. He helped build my confidence massively throughout my lessons, always staying calm and supportive, even when I doubted myself. Thanks to his teaching, I passed first time with only four minors, which I’m really proud of. I genuinely don’t think I could have done it without him, and I wouldn’t have wanted any other instructor. If you’re looking for someone who is friendly, professional, and great at building confidence, John is the one to go with.
I have been recommending Paul to everyone I know who wants to learn to drive - I literally cannot recommend him highly enough! I was a traumatised learner who’d had a bad experience with instructors before and failed her first test with six majors. Paul was so gentle and patient, and helped me feel comfortable in the car after a break of several years. Each lesson was clearly planned and structured and he helped me keep track of my progress and gradually regain my confidence. After six months of lessons with him, I passed a test with just three minors, and am now happily and safely driving around! I would particularly recommend Paul if you are nervous or have had bad experiences with instructors in the past. He made learning to drive genuinely fun as well as organised and safe.
Karen was a great instructor. She was calm and patient. Everything was explained and taught in depth. I feel confident to hit the road!
Sara was an amazing driving instructor - patient, calm, and really clear in the way she explained everything. She helped build my confidence and made lessons feel relaxed but focused. I felt fully prepared for my test and passed first time thanks to her support. I couldn’t recommend Sara enough!
Lisa is amazing she puts you at ease makes you feel comfortable and your very own cheerleader! I have dyslexia and dyspraxia and adhd and she was amazing and we clicked straight away and understood how I need to be tought will be recommending her to everyone 10/10.
Lisa was an amazing teacher. She was incredibly helpful and very patient with me throughout my learning journey. She taught me all the techniques and information I needed in a clear and supportive way. She supported me from start to finish until I passed, and I truly had an amazing experience with her. I would definitely recommend her to others. She was very calming, professional, and excellent at her job. Thank you so much, Lisa.

I recently passed my driving test with 0 Faults working with Paul Downes! Paul is patient, well educated and a good laugh. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone who wants to learn how to drive!
Where do I start, I randomly thought one day to look for an instructor to teach me to drive after previously being with 2 instructors years ago, then I found john, john barrow from insight to drive has been my gods sent, he has taught me to drive with confidence taught me self belief and taught me to be the driver I am to day after failed one test I had doubt about myself but no john stuck by me help me self believe and guess what got me to pass, I can not recommend John enough hes been so calm through out my ups and downs and been so professional through out it all hes taught me so many unique ways how to drive which will stick with me like I said I cant recommend him enough.
Karen from insight2drive is the nicest, most patient and reliable instructor around I couldn’t have passed without her, wonderful lady and an absolute legend! Thanks so much.
You can't get a better instructor than Karen! She really teaches you not just to pass the test but the realities of the road and how to be a safe driver. I was so happy to pass first time at Norris Green test centre and can't thank Karen enough for helping me!
My instructor was kind and patient. She made sure I mastered each topic/ skill before moving on to the next topic.
Just passed my test after a few goes and Lisa Leung was the perfect instructor never let me give up and gave me the confidence I needed and I recommend her highly .
David was an amazing instructor. Really relaxed and friendly, which made learning to drive much less stressful. He explained things clearly and helped me feel confident behind the wheel! Thanks for helping me pass.
